A 2 in 1 Travel System
If you're looking to move around easily or you want to create a modern version of the pram, a car seat and stroller combination is the
best 2 in-1 prams option. Make sure to check the specifications to ensure that your car seat and stroller are compatible or consider purchasing an adaptor.
Travel systems that have been tested by editors allow you to move your baby who is sleeping in the car to a stroller without disturbing them. Some also come with a carrycot to allow for natural sleep.
Car Seat
A
2 in 1 stroller with car seat in 1 buggy and car seat (

It's a convenience for parents and caregivers who regularly run errands with baby or take their little baby out on public transportation or rideshares. "You'll have less equipment to deal with," explains Graco spokeswoman Rachel Stanton. "And it's perfect for families who switch between carpooling with other moms or taking public transportation."
A top choice is the Doona infant car seat and latch base, which receives an astounding 90 percent of five-star reviews on Amazon. It's a rear-facing car seat that transforms into a stroller with wheels in a matter of seconds. The wheels fold down underneath, and it's compact when not in use. The Doona can also be connected to a car's backseat by using the sturdy LATCH base or to taxi-safety belt paths. This makes it a great choice for urban families.
The Mamas & Papas Pramette is a top car seat/stroller combination, featuring the pram having a hood and front seats that open for you to lay your child down for naptime or for feedings. It comes with a large basket, cup holders and a basket for all the necessities for your baby 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 so baby is comfy for every ride.
The weight and height limits are also important. Also, consider whether the infant car seat can be used only with a backseat belt, or if it has a rigid LATCH system built in. Find a lock for the handle to secure the handle in position. You can also tilt the handle toward the rear seatback to create an anti-rebound bar.
Travel systems are only compatible with infant car seats. Extended-use car seats that can be turned to face forward later, do not snap into strollers. For this reason, many moms opt to get an additional stroller and car seat once their baby grows out of the infant seat.
Stroller
A stroller is a vital piece of equipment for any new parent. Some travel systems have a baby pram which can be transformed into a comfortable carrycot for infants. This is a great option for parents who don't want to disturb their newborn while traveling. Certain brands also provide the option of a car seat and stroller combo that can be connected. This lets you keep your child in the car seat while transferring them to a stroller, without disrupting them.
A great stroller should include numerous features that make it easy to use and practical. It should include a large storage basket that can hold essentials such as nappies as well as toys and snacks. It can also recline so that your child can lie down comfortably. It should also have a sturdy canopy to shield your baby from the sun and a lockable front wheel for extra security. In addition it should be light and compact to store it in storage or for transporting to and from the car.
Editor-tested travel system strollers like the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo, Chicco Keyfit Caddy and Doona Combo all provide convenience by connecting with a range of top car seats that click to attach to the frame and fold effortlessly. Some have one wheel on each leg, making them more maneuverable and easier to roll across different surfaces.
Ideal strollers should be able to carry your child through the stage of toddlerhood, and beyond and allow you to continue to use it to transport your child to and from activities, school and play dates. This is why you should look for a model that features a seat that faces the world (and reclines) once your baby outgrows the car seat.
If you are planning to use your
2 in 1 pushchair-in-1 travel system on public transportation you should look for one with an ISOFIX base so it's safe to get on and off buses or trains. Certain models, such as the Doona can be mounted on planes and trains to make traveling with your
baby pram 2 in 1 a lot easier.
