A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat A 2-in-1 travel system with car seats offers parents the convenience of a car seat for their infant and stroller that work together. However they can be expensive. These combos let parents easily move a sleeping child from the car to the stroller and vice versa, without waking them. This is an excellent option for families that are constantly in motion. Comfort If you're looking for an easy method to move your baby from car to stroller without disturbing them, a travel system with an infant stroller seat and a stroller car seat could be the thing you're looking for. These all-in-ones differ from stroller-only combinations because they usually include an infant car seat in addition to the stroller. They are suitable for both infants and older children. Many of the car-and stroller combinations on our list have a bassinet included that can be used as a secure alternative to a stroller during naptime walks. While a 2-in-1 travel system that includes a car seat could cost more than separate products however, you'll likely save time and money by purchasing the two items together. If you decide that the stroller and car seat are not right for your family later, most brands have adaptors that let you use the car seat in conjunction with another stroller. When looking for a travel set be aware that a majority of these sets include an infant car-seat and stroller designed to work together. These are meant to be used during the first year. If you are planning on keeping the seat and using it beyond this time, you should look for one that has an convertible car seat that can be used as a toddler car seat and has a heavier weight limit. Some travel systems also have an additional seat that can serve as a booster seat for older children. While this is a great option however, it's not necessary and might not be practical based on your lifestyle. Take a look at our top picks of strollers and car seats if you're looking for an budget-friendly travel system that can last for a long time. Our editors' top picks, such as the UPPAbaby PIPA car seat and Vista stroller combo, have plenty of features to aid you and your baby to stay comfortable. These products have springy all-wheel suspension to smooth the ride and the PIPA car seat comes with a built-in drape canopy to protect a child who is snoozing. These products also feature rigid LATCH connectors which can be used on vehicles without a base. This makes them a great option for families who regularly use ride-sharing or have two cars. Convenience These are great for parents who run errands or take their babies on public transportation like buses and trains. You can easily transfer your baby's sleeping body from the car to a stroller without disturbing or waking them. Some of the most effective stroller-car seat combinations can be turned to a double as you have a growing family. We love the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo, which features an infant car seat and stroller that snap into place, instantly transforming them into a sleek chariot two. This is especially crucial if the car seat is the sole vehicle seat for your baby. Other stroller and car seat combinations have more complicated conversion procedures that require you to manually connect the infant car seat onto the stroller, or use the straps attached to the base to secure it. This method was more difficult to master during our testing than the Doona's one-step conversion. If you misplace or forget the straps, it can pose a safety hazard. While a combination of a car seat and stroller is convenient, you must take into consideration whether the stroller and infant car seat can work together for the time you need them to. The majority of car seats and strollers feature rear-facing infant car seat designed to be used until your child reaches the age of one. The car seats can't be connected to a stroller after they're no longer required in the car. Some all-in-one car seat/stroller product, such as Doona can be used as toddler car seats that come with an additional seatbelt booster once your child is no longer in the car seat for infants, but it is too big to fit in most traditional strollers. Car seat/stroller combos are ideal for infants and toddlers until early childhood. When your child has grown out of the infant car seat you can replace the travel system with an extra large stroller that can be used by older toddlers and older children. Always ensure that your infant car seat is properly installed. Don't remove it from your car without first taking off the straps. Safety The combination of the car seat and stroller allows for easy transfer of infants from a car to a stroller, and vice versa, without disturbing them or waking them up. This is particularly useful when you're running errands or traveling, says Rothman. To ensure safety, choose a car seat which attaches to a stroller using the rigid LATCH system or an easy-on system. This will ensure that the car seat will be secure while in use and will not slide off or loosen during transit. Combinations of car seat and strollers that can be used with or without the base are a good option for vehicles that ride-share. When looking for a new travel system, be sure to check the weight and age limits of both the car seat as well as the stroller. Typically, the infant car seats that are included in these systems are rear-facing and only designed for use during the first 12 months of your child's life. These car seats can be converted to a forward-facing car seat which can either be used in the vehicle, or snapped into a stroller. Stanton says it's crucial to follow all instructions and labels, especially when it's time to ensure your child is in compliance with the weight and height requirements of both the car seat and the stroller. While some parents prefer to buy separate products and create their own travel system, it's not unusual for companies to offer pre-packaged car seat and stroller combination sets. They're usually cheaper than purchasing the items separately. For instance, UPPAbaby's Vista stroller with the Mesa infant car seat is an extremely sought-after set. The stroller has a smooth ride, a springy suspension on all wheels, and a huge storage basket for all of your baby gear. pushchair 2 in 1 is low profile and has a SafeCell crumple zone for extra security. The SafeCenter LATCH makes it easy to install. The car seat comes with an adjustable headrest that can be adjusted in four positions with four harness settings as well as an insert that is cushioned to ensure your child's safety. pram pushchair 2 in 1 is easy to clean, and folds with just one hand. Style It's tempting to buy a travel system that makes it easier to move your baby from the car to the stroller, without waking them up, but that's not the main reason to think about buying one. You should also consider an option with a fashionable design, that is easy to maneuver and has many other features to ensure your child's comfort and yours. The most effective travel systems comprise an infant car seat, stroller, and car seat base all in one box to allow a seamless transition from vehicle to street. They usually include a single car seat that is easily converted into a stroller compatible with it. Some even have an ottoman for napping (safety studies have shown that babies sleep better when they are in the reclining position). Strollers and infant car seats that are compatible with 2-in-1 travel systems are lightweight, durable, and easy to fold and maneuver. Find models with rubber tires with a swivel wheel on the front for city streets, and a spacious cargo basket that can hold multiple shopping bags. For easy storage, you should also check how small car seats and strollers are when folded. Certain travel systems let you replace the included infant car seat with a toddler seat as your child grows out of it, which gives you an additional two years of use. This is an excellent option for those who intend to use the seat for more than a year or if their partner commutes by train, bus or ride-share.
