12 Companies Are Leading The Way In 2 In 1 Travel System

A 2 in 1 Travel System

If you want to travel with ease or create a modern version of the pram pushchair 2 in 1, the car seat and stroller combo is the best choice. Take a look at the specifications carefully to make sure your chosen car seat and pushchair work together, or think about buying an adaptor.

Travel systems that have been evaluated by editors allow you to move your baby who is sleeping in the car to a stroller without disturbing them. Some travel systems have a carrycot to encourage the natural sleeping.

Car Seat

A 2 in 1 stroller with car seat-in-1 travel set comes with the stroller as well as an infant car seat that snap together. This is a great solution for parents who often make errands, or take their baby on public transport or rideshares. "You have less gear to worry about," explains Graco spokesperson Rachel Stanton. "And it's perfect for families that alternate between public transportation and carpooling with other moms."

Doona infant car seats and latch bases are a top option, with 90 percent of Amazon reviews giving it five stars. It's a rear-facing vehicle seat that converts into a rolling stroller--the transition is a matter of seconds. When not in use the wheels can be folded under and it's a compact. The Doona also attaches to the back of a car using the LATCH base that is rigid or to taxi-safe belt paths making it ideal for commuters and families in cities.

The Mamas and Papas Pramette is yet another great car seat/stroller combo, with a pram that has the hood as well as a the front seat, which opens to let you lay your child down for naps or for feedings. It comes with a large basket, cup holders and a basket for all of your baby's necessities as well as a tray for parents and sun shade. The stroller seat has a multi-position reclining seat and can recline to a flat position, making sure your baby is comfortable on every ride.

The weight and height limits are also important. Also, consider whether the car seat for infants can be used only with a belt for the back seat or when it has a sturdy LATCH system built in. Look for a lock on the handle to ensure that the handle stays in the right place. You can also tilt the handle towards the seatback in the rear to create an anti-rebound bar.

Travel systems only work for infant car seats. Extended-use car seats, which can be turned forward later, do not snap into strollers. This is why many moms opt to get a separate stroller and car seat once their baby grows out of the infant seat.

Stroller

A stroller is an essential piece of equipment for newly parents. Some travel systems include the baby pram 2 in 1 that converts into a cozy infant carrycot so that your Baby pram 2 In 1 can rest peacefully in the car, making them ideal for newborns and parents who don't want to disturb them when travelling. Depending on the brand it may also come with the option of a stroller and car seat combo that clicks into each other. This lets you keep your child in the car seat and then transfer them to a stroller, without disturbing them.

A quality stroller must be equipped with a variety of features that make it convenient and easy to use. It should include a large basket where you can store essentials like nappies, toys and snacks and be able to recline to give your baby a relaxing rest. It should also come with an adequate canopy to shield your baby from the sun, and a lockable front wheel to ensure safety. Additionally, it should be lightweight and compact enough to store it in storage or for transporting to and from the car.

Travel system strollers that have been tested by editors, for instance the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo and Chicco Keyfit Caddy, offer convenience due to their ability to connect with various top car seats. The car seats snap onto the frame to be connected and folded easily. Some come with a single wheel on each leg, which makes them more maneuverable and roll on different surfaces.

Ideally, a stroller should be versatile enough to last throughout toddlerhood and beyond if you want it to continue to transport your child to and from school, activities and play dates. If your child is outgrowing their car seat, consider a stroller that is able to seat your child in the world and reclines.

If you plan to utilize your 2-in-1 system on public transport, choose a model that has an ISOFIX base. This will ensure that it is safe for you to hop off and on trains or buses. Some models, like the Doona can be fitted on planes and trains to make traveling with your baby easier.
