A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat A 2-in-1 travel system 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. However they can be expensive. These combos allow parents to easily move a sleeping child from the car to the stroller, and reverse the process, without disturbing them up. This is a great option for families who spend the majority of their time on the go. Comfort If you're looking for an easy way to transfer your baby from the car to stroller without waking them up the next morning, a travel set-up that includes a stroller seat and infant car seat may be just 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 can be used for both newborns and older children. A lot of the car-and-stroller combos that we have listed include a bassinet that can be used as an alternative for a traditional stroller for walks during naptime. While a 2-in-1 travel system with a car seat may cost more than separate products but you'll probably save time and money by buying them as a set. If you decide later that the car seat and stroller aren't right for your family, most brands offer adaptors that allow you to use the car seat with another stroller (provided it is tall and weighs the same requirements). One thing to be aware of when you are shopping for a travel set is that they typically comprise 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 intend to keep the seat and using it past this point, consider a model with an convertible car seat that can be used as a toddler car seat and has a higher weight limit. Some travel systems have an additional seat that can be used to boost older children. This is a wonderful feature, but it may not be appropriate for your needs. If you're looking for a fantastic travel system that will last a few years, take a look at our top picks for car seats as well as strollers. The UPPAbaby, a favorite of our editors, PIPA stroller and car seat combination have many features that will keep you and your child in a comfortable position. These strollers feature springy all-wheel suspension to smooth out the ride. The PIPA car seat also comes with a built in drape canopy to protect children who are snoozing. They also come with rigid LATCH connectors that can be used on vehicles that do not have a base, making it a great option for families who regularly use ride-sharing services or have two cars. Convenience Car seat/stroller combos are ideal for parents who regularly run out for errands or take their child out on public transportation such as trains and buses. It is easy to transfer your sleeping baby 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 grows. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo is an ideal combination of a stroller as well as a infant car seat that can be clicked into place to instantly transform into chariots for two. This is especially important if the car seat will be your baby's primary vehicle seat. Other car seat and stroller combinations have more complicated conversion methods that may require you to manually attach the car seat of your infant onto the stroller or use straps that attach to the base to fix it. In our tests, this method was often harder to master than the one-step procedure of the Doona. It can pose dangerous when you forget or misplace the straps to secure the straps prior using the travel system. While a combo of a stroller and car seat is convenient, you should be aware of whether the infant car seat and stroller will work as long as you need them to. The majority of car seats and strollers utilize rear-facing infant car seats that are made to be used until your child is 1. The car seats can't be attached to strollers once they are no longer required in the car. Some all-in-one car seat/stroller products, such as the Doona is able to be used as a car seat for toddlers with the seat belt booster when your child has outgrown the car seat for infants but is too tall for the standard strollers. Car seat/stroller combinations work best for newborns through the early years of childhood. Once your child outgrows the car seats for infants it is recommended to consider purchasing a separate stroller and replacing the travel system with a more spacious model 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 the vehicle without taking off the straps first. Safety The combination of a stroller and car seat allows for easy transfer of infants from a car to a stroller and reverse the process without disturbing them or waking them up. This is particularly useful when you're on the go or travelling, says Rothman. 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 will remain secure while in use and will not slide off or come loose in the course of transport. Combinations of car seat and stroller that can be used with or without the base are ideal 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 and stroller. These systems include rear-facing infant car seat that are only intended for use for the first 12 months of a child's life. A lot of these seats transition to a forward-facing car seat that will stay in the vehicle or snap into a stroller that is compatible. Stanton insists that you read all labels and instructions particularly when it comes time to ensure your child's 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 to see companies sell pre-packaged car seat and stroller combination sets. These sets are typically less expensive than purchasing them separately. For instance, UPPAbaby's bestselling Vista stroller that comes with the Mesa infant car seat is an extremely sought-after set. The stroller is smooth ride, springy suspension on all wheels, and a huge storage basket that can hold everything your baby needs. The car seat is slim and comes with a SafeCell crumple zone for extra protection. 2 in 1 stroller is quick and simple installation thanks to the exclusive SafeCenter LATCH. The car seat features a headrest that is adjustable in four positions with four harness settings, as well as an insert that is cushioned to ensure the comfort of your child. It is easy to clean and has a 1-hand fold, making it convenient to store. Style It's tempting to buy a travel system to make it easier to move your child from the car to the stroller without disturbing them, however, that's not the only reason to consider buying one. You should also choose one with a sleek design, which is simple to use and comes with a variety of other features to ensure your child's comfort as well as yours. The best travel systems most effective include an infant car, stroller and car seat base in one package to help you to transition from your vehicle to the street. They usually have a one-piece infant car seat that snaps easily into a stroller compatible with it and some include the option of a bassinet attachment to allow naptime strolls (safety research suggests that babies sleep best in an upright position). Strollers and infant car seats made to work with two in one travel systems are lightweight and durable, making them easy to push, maneuver, and fold. Make sure you choose models with rubber tires, a swivel wheel on the front to allow for city streets and a large cargo basket and the capacity to hold several shopping bags. You should also consider how compact the car seat and stroller fold to make it easier to store them. Certain travel systems let you change the included infant car seat with a toddler seat after your child has outgrown it, giving you an additional two years of use. This is a great option for those who plan to use the seat for longer than a year or if a partner is a commuter on a bus, train or ride-share. Graco's All in One Car Seat and Stroller is an excellent choice for families who are looking for an all-in one. It's easy to move from car seat to stroller, and back, with a built-in rigid LATCH system that locks the seat swiftly and securely in your car. It's also certified for air travel, so you can get on and off public transportation with ease. The All-in-One Car Seat & Stroller can be converted to a double stroller, so you can take your child on excursions around the world. It's also available in a range of vibrant colors to match any wardrobe.
