Editor-Tested 2 in 1 Travel System Pram

The best 2 in 1 car seat stroller in 1 travel system prams allow you to transfer your child from car to stroller and back. These sets are editor-tested and endorsed. They come with an infant seat that snaps into the stroller frame to ensure smooth and comfortable ride.

Please note that these car seats are only compatible with rear-facing infant car seat (not extended-use car seating, which is meant to remain in the vehicle). The weight and age restrictions vary by product.

Car Seat

A 2 in 1 travel system pram comes with an infant car seat that snaps into the stroller. It can also transform into an infant carrycot, making it an all-in-one solution for your baby's first few years. They can be more expensive than standard strollers however, the convenience and security of transferring your baby from the car to the stroller without disturbing them is worth the extra cost.

The UPPAbaby car and pram combination is a modern version of the traditional pram. It is a favorite among parents. The Vista stroller is smooth and easy to maneuver, and the Mesa infant car seat clip easily into your vehicle using UPPAbaby's Smart Secure LATCH system, which makes it simpler than other models to set up. Furthermore, the stroller can be used as a bassinet or in carriage mode and you can alter the seat's orientation between forward-facing and rear-facing depending on your preference.

The Graco LiteMax infant car seat and stroller combo is another highly-rated product that is ideal for parents with young children. It can be converted into a stroller that can be turned into a rolling bassinet and the reclining seats can face your child in either direction, depending on their preference. It is easy to use, and can accommodate two in one pram car seats.

There are many alternatives to choose from. Many 2 in 1 pushchairs in 1 travel systems come with a stroller and a car seat that can be used from birth. However, the majority of these car seats aren't compatible with all strollers. The most important thing is to choose a product that is compatible with the specific car model you have and is safe to be installed. Check the manufacturer's guidelines and Consumer Products Safety Commission website for recalls. You can also contact your insurance company to see whether they provide roadside assistance in case you require assistance with an installation or other problem.

Carrycot

A carrycot is a compact, portable cot that attaches to the frame of a pram, allowing babies to sleep comfortably when on the move. It is ideal to use from birth up until your baby is able to sit up without assistance, which is usually about six months. A carrycot is also a great alternative to a moses basket or crib and can double up as a travel cot for those you are away from home. The carrycot in a 2 in 1 travel system pram typically has a large flat base, and is designed to help your baby's natural sleeping position, which helps in healthy growth and development. Some of our carrycots, like the doofy Stargazer are suitable for overnight sleep and can be easily folded and stored away when not being used.

Most 3 in 1, combination prams are able to combine a pushchair and a car seat or carrycot, allowing you to select the best mode of transport for your journey. They are generally heavier than their 2 in 1 car seat stroller in 1 counterparts and can be preferred by parents who prefer the classic look of a pram. These models often have the option to remove the pushchair so that you can use them as lightweight strollers once your child is old enough to sit upright and face you.

They are usually lightweight and fold flat. This makes them easier to be tucked away in smaller vehicles. They have many features that make them more convenient. They include large shopping baskets, rain covers, and lightweight chassis.

Make sure that the 2 in 1 travel system and a carrycot you are considering is suitable and complies with the most recent European safety standard. For instance, make sure that the carrycot is compliant to the new standard EN1466-2023. This replaces the EN0+:2014+AC:2015, which will be obligatory in June 2024. Also, look out for accessories such as footmuffs weather shields, and parent and child trays to help your child feel safe and comfortable while they sleep in their cot.

Stroller

If your child can sit comfortably in an infant car-seat and is able to walk on their own, a stroller could be the best option. Strollers fold easily and compact and will usually fit in the trunk of cars. They're spacious enough to store all your baby's essentials and provide an enjoyable ride, even on rough terrain. Some come with a spacious bassinet to enable naps while traveling. The best strollers are equipped with the latest safety features, like 5-point harnesses. They are a great choice for parents who are just starting out.

Many modern prams and strollers have adaptors that make it possible to connect the car capsule into the chassis which allows you to transfer your sleeping baby from the car to the pushchair without disrupting them. This is a fantastic feature for parents who are constantly who are always on the move, as it allows you to complete essential errands without having to wake your baby or risk losing them from the vehicle. This is best demonstrated with the Doona travel system, a compact stroller which can be converted into a carrycot or group baby seat.

Real prams are the silvercross-sprung things that Mary Poppins would use on her adventures and they're an excellent option for walking around town or traveling to other countries, since they're easy to operate and can carry a large amount of luggage. They're however heavy to carry and are difficult to fit into a taxi, or the small trunk of your vehicle, but they are ideal for long walks due to their spaciousness and the comfort they offer.

The newer 3 in 1 prams feature more modern and sophisticated design. They have frames that fold like an umbrella, and also a removable baby seat or carrycot. They can be used at birth, and are lighter than traditional strollers. The carrycot can be turned into a seat facing your child's back that can recline when they're ready. Our selection includes the Kinderkraft Juli, which is an excellent choice that comes with an infant car seat and a carryingcot as well as the pushchair.

Accessories

A pramette is like the traditional pram, but it folds much smaller and is ideal for travel on trains with a lot of traffic or if you don't have enough space for a full-size pram. Some of these can be converted into pushchairs which means that your baby can sleep flat from birth. Others can be transformed into an entire travel system by adding an automobile seat. Some of the brands that sell these include Hauck, Kinderkraft and Venicci.

A 3-in-1 travel system includes a pushchair, carrycot and car seat for maximum convenience. Click the car seat into the pushchair frame and your baby will enjoy peaceful, comfortable trips from birth. Then, you can change to a stroller when your baby is ready and you'll be able to enjoy a modern twist on the traditional look of a pram. The Ickle Bubba Juli Travel System bundle is a perfect example of this. It includes the Carrycot, Infant car seat and is suitable from birth.
