A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat A two-in-one travel system that incorporates a car seat provides parents with the convenience of having an infant car seat and a stroller that can work together. They can be costly. These combos allow parents to easily transfer a sleepy child from the car to the stroller, and in reverse, without disturbing them up. This is a great solution for families that tend to spend a lot of time on the move. Comfort Travel systems with a stroller and an infant car seat are a great way to make the transition from car to stroller simple. These all-in-ones differ from stroller-only models because they usually come with an infant car seat in addition to a stroller. They can be used for both newborns and older children. Many of the car seats and strollers combos that make our list have an attachment for a bassinet and can be a safe alternative to a traditional stroller for walks during naptime. While a 2-in-1 travel system that includes a car seat may cost more than separate products but you'll probably save time and money if you buy the two items together. If you decide that the car seat and stroller aren't right for your family later the majority of brands have adaptors that let you use the car seat with a different stroller. When you are looking for a travel set keep in mind that most of these sets come with an infant car-seat and stroller designed to work together. They are intended to be used during the first year. If you intend to keep the seat after this point, choose a model that includes a convertible car seat that can be used by toddlers and is able to support a higher weight limit. Certain travel systems also come with a second seat that can serve as a booster seat for older kids. While this is a great option, it's not a necessity and may not be feasible based on your life style. Take a look at our top picks of strollers and car seats If you're looking for an affordable travel system that will last for many years. Our top choices, which have been tested by our editors, such as the UPPAbaby PIPA car seat and Vista stroller combination are packed with features that will aid you and your baby to remain comfortable. These products have springy all-wheel suspension to smooth the ride and the PIPA car seat has an inbuilt drape canopy that is perfect for protecting a snoozing child. They also have rigid LATCH connectors that can be used on vehicles that do not have a base, making it an ideal option for families who regularly use ride-sharing services or have two cars. Convenience These are great for parents who often run errands or take their babies on public transportation such as trains and buses. You can easily move your sleeping baby from the car to the stroller without disturbing or wake them up. A few of the top strollers and car seat combinations also allow you to convert them into a double as your family expands. We love the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo that comes with an infant car seat and stroller that snap into place to instantly transform into a sleek chariot for two. This feature is especially important in the event that you plan to use the car seat as your baby's primary car seat. Other strollers and car seat combinations have more complicated conversion procedures that require you to manually attach the car seat of your infant onto the stroller, or use the straps that attach to the base to secure it. In our testing this method was generally more difficult to master than the one-step procedure of the Doona. It can pose dangerous when you forget or misplace the straps to attach the straps before using the travel system. A car seat/stroller combo is convenient but you must think about whether the strollers and infant car seats can work as long as you require them to. The majority of car seat/stroller combos are rear-facing only infant car seats that are designed to be used up until your child turns one. The car seats do not connect to strollers once they are no longer needed in the car. Some all-in one car seat/stroller models such as the Doona, can be used as a toddler car seat with an additional seat belt booster once your child has outgrown 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 early childhood. Once your child outgrows the infant car seats, 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. Always ensure that your infant car seat has been properly installed. Never remove it from the car without first removing the straps. Safety The combination of a car seat and stroller allows you to easily transfer infants from a vehicle to a stroller, and in reverse without disturbing or waking them up. This is especially helpful when you're doing errands or travelling, says Rothman. To ensure your safety, select an automobile seat that connects to a stroller using a rigid LATCH system or an easy-on system. This will ensure that the car seat is safe while being used, and will not fall off or loosen during transit. Combinations of car seat and stroller that can be used without or with the base are a good option for vehicles with ride-sharing. When purchasing a travel set be sure to verify the weight and age limit for both the stroller and the car seat. Typically, the infant car seats included in these systems are rear-facing and are only intended for use during the first 12 months of your child's life. These car seats can be changed to a forward facing car seat which can either be used in the vehicle or converted into a stroller. Stanton advises parents to follow all instructions and labels, especially when it's time to make sure that your child's weight and height requirements for both the car seat as well as the stroller. Some parents prefer buying separate items to create their own travel systems, others prefer pre-packaged car seats and stroller combinations, it is not uncommon to find companies that to offer these sets. These sets are generally less expensive than purchasing them individually. Sets like UPPAbaby’s popular Vista stroller and Mesa infant car seats are sought-after. The stroller offers smooth riding with springy suspension on all wheels and a large storage basket to store all the baby's toys. The car seat has a low profile and has a SafeCell crumple zone to provide additional security. The SafeCenter LATCH makes it simple to put in. The car seat comes with an adjustable headrest that can be adjusted in four positions, four harness settings and an insert that is cushioned to ensure your child's comfort. It is easy to clean, and folds with just one hand. Style It's tempting to buy a travel system that makes it easier to transfer your child from the car to the stroller without waking them up, but that's not the main reason to buy one. You should also consider one that is stylish, easy to maneuver and comes with a variety of other features that make it comfortable for both your child and you. The most effective travel systems comprise an infant car seat, stroller and car seat base all in one box for seamless transition from vehicle to street. These systems typically include an all-in-one car seat that can be easily snapped into a stroller that is compatible with it. Some even have a bassinet for naps (safety studies have shown that babies sleep better in an upright position). Strollers and infant car seats that work with 2-in-1 travel systems are lightweight, durable, and easy to fold and maneuver. Look for models with rubber tires and a swivel front wheel for city streets, and a large cargo basket that can accommodate many shopping bags. You should also consider how compact the car seat and stroller can be folded for ease of storage. Some travel systems allow you to change the infant car seat with a toddler car seat once your child grows out of it. This allows for an additional 1-2 years use. This is a great option when you're planning on using the car seat for more than a year, or if your partner is frequently using ride-share services or commutes via train or bus. Graco's All-in One Car Seat and Stroller is a great option for families who are looking for an all-in one.
