A 2 In 1 pushchair and Car seat in 1 Travel System

If you want to get around with ease or you want to create a modern take on an old-fashioned stroller, the car seat and stroller combo is the best option. Take a look at the specifications carefully to ensure your chosen car seat and 2in1 pushchair are compatible, or think about buying an adapter.

Travel systems that have been evaluated by editors allow you to transfer your baby who is sleeping in the car to a stroller without disrupting them. Some include a carrycot for natural sleep.

Car Seat

A 2-in-1 travel system includes an infant car seat as well as stroller that snaps together. It's a convenience for caregivers and parents who often run errands while with their baby, or take their little child on rideshares or public transportation. "You'll have less equipment to deal with," explains Graco spokeswoman Rachel Stanton. "And it's great for families who alternate between carpooling and public transit with other moms."

The best option is the Doona infant car seat and latch base, which receives 90 percent of five-star reviews on Amazon. It's a rear-facing car seat that can be converted into a stroller with wheels in just a few seconds. When not in use the wheels can be folded under and it's small. The Doona can also be attached to a car's backseat using the LATCH base that is rigid, or to taxi safety belts. This makes it perfect for city families.

The Mamas and Papas Pramette is yet another great car seat/stroller combination, featuring a pram and pushchair 2 in 1 that has an hood and a front seats that open to allow you to lie your child down to sleep or feedings. It comes with a big basket, cup holders and an umbrella shade for your baby's essentials. The stroller seat is able to recline in a variety of positions, and it can even be flat so that your child will be able to relax on every ride.

The weight and height limits are also important. Also, consider whether the infant car seat can be used only with a backseat belt or when it has a sturdy LATCH system integrated into. Look for a handle lock to secure the handle in the right place. You can also tilt the handle toward the seatback in the rear to create an anti-rebound bar.

It's worth noting that travel systems work only with infant car seats. Extended-use car seats that can later be made forward-facing snap into strollers. For this reason, many moms opt to get an additional stroller and car seat when their child is no longer in the infant seat.

Stroller

A stroller is a crucial piece of equipment for any new parent. Some travel systems come with a baby stroller that can be transformed into a comfy infant carrycot. This is a great option for parents who don't want to disturb their newborn while traveling. Some brands also offer a stroller and car seat combo that can be clicked together. This lets you keep your child in the car seat and then transfer them to a stroller, without disturbing them.

A good stroller should have numerous features that make it easy to use and practical. It should have an ample basket in which you can put away essentials like nappies, toys and snacks and be able to recline to give your baby prams 2 in 1 a comfortable rest. It should also have a good canopy to protect your baby from sun's rays and a lockable for the front wheel for extra security. In addition it should be light and fold compactly for storage or transporting to and from the car.

Editor-tested travel system strollers such as the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo, Chicco Keyfit Caddy and Doona Combo all provide convenience by connecting to a variety top car seats that snap to the frame and fold down with ease. Some also have a single wheel on each leg, making them easier to manoeuvre and roll across different surfaces.

The best strollers are able to carry your child throughout the stage of toddlerhood, and beyond, so that you can continue to use it to take them to and from activities, 2 in 1 Bassinet stroller school and play dates. When your child outgrows their car seat, choose a stroller which features a seat that faces the world and that reclines.

If you are planning to use your 2 in 1 pram and car seat-in-1 travel system on public transportation you should look for models that have an ISOFIX base, which makes it safe to hop on and off buses or trains. Certain models, such as the Doona can be installed on trains and planes to make travelling with your baby easier.
