A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat A two-in-one travel system that incorporates a car seat offers parents the convenience of having a baby car seat and a stroller that work together. They can be costly. These combos make it easy for parents to move a sleeping baby from car to stroller and back again without waking them up. This is an excellent option for families who are constantly moving. Comfort Travel systems with a stroller and an infant car seat are a great option to make the transition from the car to stroller a breeze. These are different from stroller-only models because they usually include an infant car seat in addition to the stroller. 2in1 pushchair can be used for both newborns and older children. A lot of the car seat and stroller combos on our list include an attachment for a bassinet which is an alternative to a stroller for walks during naptime. While a two-in-one travel system with car seat could cost more than separate items but you'll probably save time and money by purchasing them as a set. If you decide that the stroller and car seat aren't suitable for your family there are adaptors for most brands to allow you to use the car seat in conjunction with an alternative stroller. One important thing to remember when shopping for a travel system is that these sets usually include an infant car seat and a stroller that is designed to work together, and is designed to be used for the first 12 months. If you plan on keeping the seat and using it past this point, consider an option with a convertible car seat that can be used as a toddler car seat and has a higher weight limit. Some travel systems have a second seat which can be used to help older children. This is a great feature, but it may not be appropriate for your particular lifestyle. If you're looking for a great travel system that will last for a couple of years, look through our top picks for car seats and strollers. Our editor-tested favorites like the UPPAbaby PIPA car seat and Vista stroller combination, have plenty of features that will help you and your baby stay comfortable. They have a springy all-wheel suspension to smooth the ride and the PIPA car seat has an integrated drape canopy for protecting a snoozing child. These products also feature rigid LATCH connectors which can be used on vehicles without a base. This makes them an ideal choice for families that frequently use ride-sharing or have two cars. Convenience Car seat/stroller combinations are great for parents who frequently run out for errands or take their child out on public transport such as trains and buses. It is easy to transfer your baby's sleeping body from the car to a stroller without worrying about wake them up. A few of the top strollers and car seat combinations also allow you to transform them into a double as your family expands. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo is an amalgamation of a stroller and infant car seat that can be clicked into place to instantly convert them into chariots that can accommodate two. This is particularly crucial if the car seat is the sole vehicle seat for your baby. Other strollers and car seat combos have more complex conversion procedures that require you to manually attach the infant car seat onto the stroller, or use the straps that are attached to the base to hold it in place. In our testing this method was generally more difficult to master than the single-step method of the Doona. If you lose or forget the straps, it can pose a safety hazard. A combination of a car seat and stroller is convenient but you must consider whether the infant car seats and strollers can work as long as you require them to. The majority of car seats and strollers use rear-facing only infant car seats that are designed to be used up until your child turns one. These car seats are not connected to a stroller after they're no longer required in the car. Some all-in-one car seats and strollers, such as the Doona is able to be used as a toddler car seat with the seat belt booster when your child is no longer in the car seat that was designed for infants, but is too tall to fit into the standard strollers. The most effective combination is the combination of a stroller and car seat for infants and children in the early years of childhood. When your child has grown out of the infant car seat you can replace the travel system by an extra large stroller that can be used by older children and toddlers. Also, keep in mind that you must ensure your infant car seat is fitted properly and never remove it from your vehicle without removing the straps first. Safety Car seats and strollers make it easy to move infants from their car to the stroller, and back without disrupting them or having to wake them up. Rothman says this is especially useful when you are conducting errands or travel. For added security, look for a car seat that is attached to the stroller using either the simple click or the rigid LATCH system. This will ensure that the car seat is secure when it's used and will not come loose or fall off during transport. Combinations of strollers and car seats that work without or with a base are also good alternatives for ride-share vehicles. When you are looking for a travel system, be sure to check the weight and age restrictions of both the car seat and the stroller. These systems include rear-facing infant car seats that are only designed for use during the first 12 months of the life of a child. These car seats can be converted to a forward-facing car seat which can either be used in the car or converted into the stroller. Stanton insists that you be aware of all labels and directions, especially when it comes time to ensure your child's weight and height requirements for both the car seat as well as the stroller. While some parents prefer to buy separate products and design their own travel system, it's not uncommon for companies to offer pre-packaged car seat and stroller set-ups. These are often priced lower than buying the items individually. 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 for everything your baby needs. The car seat has a low profile and has a SafeCell crumple zone for extra security. It has a quick and simple installation, thanks to the exclusive SafeCenter LATCH. The car seat comes with a four-position adjustable headrest, four harness settings and a padded insert to ensure your child's comfort. It is easy to clean and features a 1-hand fold, making it ideal for storage. Style Although it's tempting to purchase a travel system for the convenience of moving your child from car to stroller and back again without waking them up, it's not the only reason to look into one. You also want to choose one that's stylish, easy to maneuver and comes with a variety of other features that make it comfortable for both your child and you. Travel systems that are the best include the infant car, stroller and car seat base all in one box to allow you to move from your vehicle to the street. They typically feature a one-piece infant car seat that snaps into a stroller compatible with it, and some even offer the option of a bassinet attachment to allow naptime strolls (safety research has shown that babies sleep better in an upright position). Strollers and infant cars seats that integrate with 2-in-1 travel systems are lightweight, durable, and easy to maneuver and fold. Find models with rubber tires and a swivel wheel at the front to allow for city streets and a large cargo basket, and can accommodate multiple shopping bags. To make it easier to store your items make sure to check how the strollers and car seats fold when folded. Some travel systems allow you to replace the infant car seat with a toddler one when your child outgrows it, which gives you an additional 1-2 years of use. This is a great option when you're planning on using the car seat for more than one year, or your partner is frequently using ride-sharing services or commutes by train or bus. Graco's All-in-One Car Seat and Stroller is a top pick for families looking for an all-in-one solution. The rigid system built into LATCH allows you to easily switch from stroller to car seat and back. It's also certified for air travel, so you can hop on and off public transport in peace. The All-in-One Car Seat & Stroller can be converted to a double stroller so that you can take your child on adventures around the world. It is available in a range of vibrant colors that will match any outfit.
