A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat

A 2-in-1 travel system with car seat gives parents the convenience of having an infant car seat and a stroller that can work together. However, they can be expensive.

These combos make it simple for parents to take a sleepy baby from the car to the stroller and back again without waking them up. This is a great option for families that are constantly moving.

Comfort

Travel systems that come with an infant car seat are a great way to make the transition from car to stroller simple. These are different from stroller-only combos because they usually come with an infant car seat and the stroller. They can be used for both infants and older children. A lot of the car seat and stroller combos on our list come with bassinet attachments as well, which can be an excellent alternative to a traditional stroller for naps.

A 2 in 1 travel system that comes with a car seat will cost more than buying the two items separately, however you'll save time and money by purchasing them all together. If you decide that the car seat and stroller aren't suitable for your family in the future there are adaptors for most brands that let you use the car seat with an alternative stroller.

One thing to keep in mind when you are shopping for a travel set is that these sets usually comprise an infant car seat and a stroller made to work together, and is meant to be used for the first 12 months. If you are planning to keep the seat and using it past this point, consider one that has an convertible car seat that can be used as a toddler seat and has a heavier weight limit.

Some travel systems also have a second seat that can serve as a booster for older kids. While this is a great option however, it's not necessary and may not be practical depending on your lifestyle.

If you're looking for a great travel system that will last for a couple of years, look through our top choices for car seats and strollers. The UPPAbaby, a favorite of our editors, PIPA egg stroller 2 In 1 and car seat combo come with numerous features that will keep you and your child comfortable. These strollers feature springy all-wheel suspension to ease the ride. The PIPA car seat also features a built in drape canopy to protect children who are snoozing. These seats also have rigid LATCH connectors that can be used on vehicles that do not have a base. This makes them a great option for families who regularly use ride-sharing services or have two vehicles.

Convenience

These combos are perfect for parents who frequently run errands or take their babies on public transport such as trains and buses. You can easily transfer your baby's sleeping body from the car to a stroller without worrying about awakening them.

Some of the best stroller and car seat combinations also allow you to transform to a double as your family grows. We love the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo that comes with an infant car seat and stroller that snap into place, instantly transforming them into a sleek chariot that can accommodate two. This feature is particularly important in the event that you plan to use the car seat as your baby's primary car seat.

Other stroller-car-seat combos might have more complicated conversion methods. It is possible to manually connect the car seat to stroller or attach straps to the base to ensure it is secured. This method was more difficult to master in our tests than the Doona's one-step conversion. It can pose an accident hazard in the event that you lose or forget to attach the straps before using the travel system.

While a car seat/stroller combo is convenient, you must also consider whether the infant car seat and stroller will work together for as long as you need them to. Most car seat/stroller combo products utilize rear-facing infant car seats designed to be used until your child is the age of 1. These car seats don't snap onto a stroller when they're no longer required in the car. Some all-in one car seat/stroller products, such as Doona can be used as toddler car seats with an additional seatbelt booster once your child has outgrown the infant car seat, however, it is too large to fit into traditional strollers.

The most effective combination is an infant car seat and a stroller for newborns to early childhood. If your child is out of the infant car seat, you can replace the travel system with larger strollers which can be used for older toddlers and older children. Also, keep in mind that you should always ensure your infant car seat is fitted correctly 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 vice versa, without disturbing or waking them up. This is especially useful when you're running errands or traveling, according to Rothman. To ensure extra safety, select a car seat that is attached to a stroller using a rigid LATCH system or an easy-on system. This will ensure that the car seat is secured during use and will not slide off or loosen during transit. Combinations of car seats and stroller that can be used without or with the base are also ideal for vehicles that ride-share.

When shopping for a travel system, be sure to check the age and weight limits of both the car seat and the stroller. These systems include rear-facing infant car seat that are only designed for use during the first 12 months of the life of a child. A majority of these car seats transition to a forward-facing car seat that can be used in the vehicle or can be converted into a stroller compatible with it. It is important to study the labels and follow all instructions carefully, adds Stanton particularly when it comes to ensuring your child is within the appropriate weight and height guidelines for both the car seat and the stroller.

While some parents prefer to buy separate products to create their own travel system and others prefer pre-packaged car seats and stroller combinations It is not unusual to see companies offer these sets. These sets are typically less expensive than purchasing them separately. Sets like UPPAbaby’s popular Vista stroller and Mesa infant car seats are highly sought-after. The stroller is smooth ride, a springy all-wheel suspension and a large storage basket to store everything you need for your baby. The car seat is low-profile and features a SafeCell crumple zone for extra protection. The SafeCenter LATCH makes it simple to set up. The car seat has a headrest that can be adjusted in four positions and four harness heights as well as a padded insert for your child's comfort. It is easy to clean and it folds with one hand.

Style

It's tempting to purchase an accessory for travel to make it easier to transfer your baby from the car to the stroller without waking them, but that's not the primary reason to buy one. You should also choose one with a sleek design, that is easy to maneuver, and that has many other features for your child's comfort as well as yours.

The best 2 in 1 pushchair travel systems include an infant car seat, stroller, and car seat base, all in one package for a seamless transition from vehicle to street. They usually have a one-piece infant car seat that snaps into a stroller compatible with it and some offer an attachment for a bassinet for strolls during nap time (safety research shows that babies sleep best when in an upright position).

Strollers and infant cars seats that are compatible with 2-in-1 travel systems are lightweight, durable, and easy to fold and maneuver. Find models with rubber tires and a swivel wheel at the front for city streets, a large cargo basket and can hold multiple shopping bags. You also want to check how compact the car seat and stroller are when they're folded to make storage easier.

Some travel systems allow you to change the included infant car seat with a toddler one after your child has outgrown it, giving you an extra 1-2 years of use. That's a great option if you plan to use the car seat for longer than a year, or if your partner regularly uses ride-share services or commutes via bus or train.
