2 in 1 prams in 1 Travel System With Car Seat A two-in-one travel system with car seat provides parents with the convenience of having a baby car seat and stroller that can work together. However they can be costly. These combos allow parents to easily transfer a sleepy child from the car to the stroller, and vice versa, without waking them up. This is a great solution for families who are constantly moving. Comfort Travel systems with a stroller and infant car seat are a great option to make the transition from car to stroller easy. These are different from stroller-only models because they usually include an infant car seat in addition to the stroller. They can be used for both infants 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 naps. A two-in-one travel system that comes with a car seat will cost more than buying the items separately, but you'll save money and time by purchasing them all together. If you decide that the stroller and car seat aren't right for your family in the future there are adaptors for most brands that allow you to use the car seat in conjunction with an alternative stroller. When you are looking for a travel set, be aware that a majority of these sets include an infant car-seat and a stroller that are designed to work together. They are intended to be used during the first year. If you plan on keeping the car seat after this period, choose a model that features a convertible car seat that can be used for toddlers and has a higher maximum weight. 2 in 1 prams have a second seat which can be used to help older children. This is a nice feature, but it may not be appropriate for your lifestyle. If you're looking to purchase a travel system that will last a few years, check out our top picks for car seats and strollers. Editor-tested favorites like the UPPAbaby PIPA stroller and car seat combo come with many features that will keep your child and you comfortable. They feature a springy all-wheel suspension to make the ride more comfortable. The PIPA car seat also has a built in drape canopy that protects the baby who is sleeping. These seats also have 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-share or have two cars. Convenience Car seat/stroller combos are great for parents who often run out for errands or take their child out on public transport such as trains and buses. They let you easily transfer your sleeping newborn from the car to the stroller without disturbing them or waking them up. A few of the top strollers and car seat combinations allow you to convert them into a double when your family expands. We love the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo, which features an infant car seat and stroller that click into place to instantly transform into a sleek chariot that can accommodate two. This feature is especially important when you intend to use the car seat as your baby's primary vehicle seat. Other stroller and car seat combination models have more complicated conversion methods that may require you to manually snap the car seat of your infant onto the stroller or use the straps that attach to the base to fix it. In our testing this method, it was more difficult to master than one-step procedure of the Doona. If you misplace or forget the straps, it may be a danger to your safety. A car seat/stroller combo is convenient but you must consider whether the strollers and infant car seats can be used together for in the time you need them to. The majority of car seat/stroller combos feature rear-facing infant car seat designed to be used until your child is the age of one. These car seats are not connected to a stroller after they're no longer required in the car. Some all-in one car seat/stroller models such as the Doona can be used as a car seat for toddlers 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 to fit into most traditional strollers. Car seat/stroller combinations are best for newborns through the early years of childhood. Once your child outgrows the car seats for infants, you should look into buying a separate stroller and replacing the travel system with a more spacious model that can be used by toddlers and older children. Also, remember that you must always make sure the infant car seat is fitted properly and never remove it from your vehicle without taking off the straps first. Safety The combination of a stroller and car seat makes it easy to transfer infants from a car to a stroller and reverse the process, without disturbing or waking them up. Rothman says this is especially beneficial when you're conducting errands or travel. For added security, look for a car seat that attaches to the stroller via a simple click or rigid LATCH system. This will ensure that the car seat will remain safe while being used, and will not fall off or become loose during the course of transport. 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 stroller, make sure you know the age and weight limits of both the car seat and the stroller. These systems include rear-facing infant car seats which are designed to be used for the first 12 months of the child's life. Many of these seats switch to a forward-facing seat that is able to remain in the car or snap into a stroller that is compatible. It's important to study the labels and follow all instructions carefully, adds Stanton, especially when it comes to ensuring your child is within the correct weight and height limits for both the car seat as well as the stroller. While some parents prefer to purchase separate items and build their own travel system, it's not unusual to see companies offer pre-packaged car seats and strollers set-ups. They are usually priced lower than buying the products separately. For example, UPPAbaby's popular Vista stroller with the Mesa infant car seat is an extremely sought-after set. The stroller is smooth ride, springy suspension with all-wheels and a large storage basket that can hold everything you need for your baby. The car seat is low profile and has a SafeCell crumple zone for added protection. It is quick and simple installation, thanks to the exclusive SafeCenter LATCH. The car seat comes with an adjustable headrest with four positions with four harness heights, as well as an insert that is cushioned for your little one's comfort. It is easy to clean and has one-hand fold, making it convenient to store. Style Although it's tempting to purchase a travel system to enjoy the convenience of transferring your baby from car to stroller and back again without waking them up, that's not the only reason to consider one. You should also choose one with a sleek design, which is easy to maneuver and has many other features to ensure your child's safety and for your own. Travel systems that are the most effective include the infant car stroller, car seat and stroller base in one box to help you to transfer from your vehicle to the street. They typically feature a one-piece infant car seat that snaps easily into a stroller that is compatible and some include the option of a bassinet attachment to allow strolls to nap (safety research has shown that babies sleep best in a reclined position). Strollers and infant car seats that work with 2-in-1 travel systems are light and durable. They are also easy to fold and maneuver. Choose models with rubber tires and a swivel front wheel for city streets, and a large cargo basket that can accommodate several shopping bags. You should also consider how the stroller and car seat are when they're folded to make storage easier. Some travel systems allow you to replace the infant car seat included with a toddler car seat when your child grows out of it. This allows for an additional 1-2 years use. This is a great option for those who intend to use the seat for a longer period of time or if they have a companion who commutes by train, bus or ride-share. Graco's All-in-One Car Seat and Stroller is a top pick for families that want an all-in-one solution. The integrated rigid system of LATCH lets you easily switch between car seats and strollers and back. It's also approved for air travel, so you can board and off public transport with confidence. The All-in-One Car Seat & Stroller can be transformed into a double stroller so you can take your child on adventures across the world. It's also available in a variety of vibrant colors that will match any wardrobe.
