A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat A 2-in-1 travel set-up with car seats gives parents the convenience of a car seat for their infant, as well as a stroller which are able to work together. They can be expensive. These combos allow parents to easily transfer a sleepy child from the car to the stroller, and reverse the process, without disturbing them. This is a great option for families who are constantly moving. Comfort If you're looking for a simple way to transition your baby from the car to stroller without awakening them, a travel system with a stroller seat and infant car seat might be the thing you're looking for. These all-in-ones are different from stroller-only combos because they usually include an infant car seat as well as a stroller. They are suitable for both newborns and older children. A lot of the car seat and stroller combinations on our list come with a bassinet attachment as well and can be an excellent alternative to a stroller for walks during naptime. A two-in-one travel system that comes with a car seat is more expensive than purchasing the items separately, but you'll save time and money by purchasing them all at once. And if you decide later on that the stroller and car seat aren't quite right for your family, most manufacturers offer adapters that allow you to use your selected car seat with a stroller (provided it meets the weight and height requirements). When looking for a travel set, be aware that a majority of these sets come with an infant car-seat and stroller designed to work together. They are intended to be used within the first year. If you intend to keep the seat after this time make sure you choose a model which features a convertible car seat that can be used for toddlers and is able to support a higher weight limit. Some travel systems also have a second seat that can serve as a booster seat for older children. This is a great option, but it may not be practical for your particular lifestyle. Take a look at our top picks of car seats and strollers if you're looking for an budget-friendly travel system that can last for many years. Editor-tested favorites like the UPPAbaby PIPA stroller and car seat combo come with numerous features that will keep you and your child in a comfortable position. These strollers feature a springy all-wheel suspensions to smooth the ride, and the PIPA car seat comes with an integrated drape canopy to protect a child who is snoozing. These products also feature LATCH connectors that are rigid and can be used on cars that don't have a base. This makes them an ideal choice for families who regularly use ride-sharing services or have two vehicles. Convenience These are great for parents who frequently run errands, or take their babies on public transportation such as trains and buses. They let you easily transfer your baby who is sleeping in the car to the stroller without disturbing or awakening them. A few of the top stroller-car seat combinations can be turned to a double as you have a growing family. We like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo that comes with an infant car seat and stroller that snap into place, instantly transforming them into a sleek chariot that can accommodate two. This feature is particularly important if you plan to use the car seat for your baby's only vehicle seat. Other stroller-car-seat combos might have more complicated conversion methods. You may have to manually snap the car seat onto stroller or use straps attached to the base to ensure it is secured. In our tests this method was generally more difficult to master than the one-step process of the Doona. It can be an accident hazard when you forget or misplace the straps to secure the straps prior using the travel system. A car seat/stroller combo is a great option, but you should also think about whether the strollers and infant car seats can work as long as you want them to. The majority of car seats and strollers use rear-facing infant car seats designed to be used until your child reaches the age of 1. These car seats do not snap onto a stroller when they are no longer needed in the car. Some all-in-one car seat/stroller products such as the Doona, can be used as a toddler car seat with an additional seat belt booster once your child is no longer in the car seat that was designed for infants, but is too tall for most traditional strollers. Car seat/stroller combinations work best for infants and toddlers until the early years of childhood. If your child is out of the infant car seat you can replace the travel system by an extra large stroller that can accommodate older children and toddlers. Also, keep in mind that you should always ensure that your infant car seat is installed correctly and never remove it from your vehicle without removing the straps first. Safety Car seat and stroller combos make it easy to transfer infants from the car to the stroller and back without disturbing them or having to get them up. This is particularly useful when you're running errands or traveling, says Rothman. To ensure your safety, select a car seat that is attached to a stroller with a rigid LATCH system or click-on system. This will ensure that the car seat will remain secure while in use and won't fall off or come loose in transit. Combinations of car seats and stroller that can be used without or with the base are also a good option for vehicles with ride-sharing. When you are looking for a travel system, check the age and weight limits of both the car seat and stroller. These systems include rear-facing infant car seats which are only designed for use for the first 12 months of a child's life. These car seats can be converted into a forward-facing car seat that can be used in the car, or snapped into the stroller. It is essential to be aware of the labels and follow all instructions carefully, adds Stanton, especially when it comes to ensuring your child's height and weight are within the correct weight and height guidelines for both the car seat and the stroller. While some parents prefer buying separate products to create their own travel systems, others prefer buying pre-packaged stroller and car seats it is not unusual to find companies that offer these sets. They are usually priced lower than buying the products separately. Sets such as UPPAbaby's popular Vista stroller and Mesa infant car seats are highly sought-after. The stroller offers a smooth ride, a springy suspension with all-wheels and a large storage basket to store all of your baby gear. The car seat is low-profile and has a SafeCell crumple zone for extra security. It's a simple and simple installation, thanks to the exclusive SafeCenter LATCH. The car seat comes with an adjustable headrest with four positions, four harness heights and padding for your child's comfort. It is easy to clean and features a one-hand fold, which makes it easy for storage. Style It's tempting to purchase a travel system that makes it easier to transfer your child from the car to the stroller without disturbing them up, but that's not the main reason to consider buying one. You also want to choose a model that's elegant, well-balanced, and has a number of other features to make it comfortable for both your child and you. The best travel systems include an infant car seat, stroller, and car seat base all in one package for a seamless transition from vehicle to street. These systems typically include a one-piece car seat that is easily converted into a stroller compatible with it. 2 in 1 pushchair come with an ottoman for napping (safety studies have proven that babies sleep better in the reclining position). Strollers and infant cars seats that are compatible with 2-in-1 travel systems are light and durable. They are also easy to fold and move. Look for models that have rubber tires and a swivel wheel at the front to allow for city streets and a large cargo basket and the capacity to hold several shopping bags. You also want to check how small the car seat and stroller can be folded for ease of storage. 2 in 1 stroller let you change the included infant car seat with a toddler seat after your child has outgrown it, giving you an additional 1-2 years of use. This is a great option for those who intend to use the seat for longer than a year or if a partner travels by bus, train or ride-share. Graco’s All-in One Car Seat and Stroller is an excellent choice for families seeking an all-in one.
