A
2 in 1 stroller in 1 Travel System
If you're looking to move around easily or want to create a modern take on the pram, an automobile seat and stroller combination is the
best 2 in 1 pushchair option. Take a look at the specifications carefully to make sure the car seat you choose and pushchair are compatible or think about buying an adaptor.
Travel systems that have been tested by editors allow you to transfer your sleeping baby from the car to a stroller without disrupting them. Some travel systems include an infant carrycot to help encourage the natural sleep.
Car Seat
A 2-in-1 travel system comes with the infant car seat and a stroller that snaps together. It's a convenience for caregivers and parents who frequently run errands with their infant or take their little one out on rideshares or public transportation. "You'll have less gear to manage," explains Graco spokeswoman Rachel Stanton. "And it's perfect for families who alternate between carpooling and public transit with other moms."
A top choice is the Doona infant car seat and latch base, which has an incredible 90 percent of five-star reviews on Amazon. It's a rear-facing vehicle seat that converts into a stroller that rolls. The transition only takes seconds. When not in use, the wheels can be folded under and it's compact. The Doona also attaches to the back of a car using the LATCH base that is rigid or to taxi-safe belt routes, making it ideal for city families and commuters.
The Mamas & Papas pramette is another great combination of a car seat and stroller. It has the pram with a hood that opens and a front seat that can be adjusted to allow your child to lie down for naps or feedings. It comes with a large basket, cup holders and a basket for everything your baby needs as well as a tray for parents and sun shade. The stroller seat has an adjustable reclining seat that can recline to a flat position so
baby pushchair 2 in 1 is comfy for every ride.
The weight and height limits are important. Also, consider whether the infant car seat can be used only with a backseat belt, or when it has a sturdy LATCH system built in. Also, look for a lock on the handle to keep it safe in its place and the possibility of tilting the handle towards the back of the seatback to make an anti-rebound bar.
It's important to note that travel systems only work with infant car seats--and extended-use car seats that are able to later turn forward-facing do not transform into strollers. For this reason, many moms opt to get a separate car seat and stroller when their child grows out of the infant seat.
Stroller
A stroller is a vital piece of equipment for newly parents. Some travel systems have a baby pram which can be converted into a comfy infant carrycot. This is perfect for parents who don't want to disturb their infant when traveling. Based on the brand they may also include a car seat and stroller combination that connects to one another. This means you can keep your child secure in the car seat, and then transfer them to a stroller without causing any disturbance, which is ideal for long drives and busy shopping centres.
A good stroller should have many features that make it easy to use and practical. It should include an ample basket for storing essential items such as nappies as well as toys and snacks. It can also recline so that your baby can rest comfortably. It should also include an adequate canopy to shield your baby from sun's rays and a lockable for the front wheel for added safety. It should also be lightweight and compact for storage and transporting to and from the vehicle.
Editor-tested travel system strollers such as the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo, Chicco Keyfit Caddy and Doona Combo all provide convenience by connecting to a variety top car seats that can be attached to the frame and fold down with ease. Some have one wheel on each leg, making them more maneuverable and easier to roll over different surfaces.
Ideally, a stroller should be able to endure through toddlerhood - and beyond if you need it to to transport your child to and from school or to play dates, activities and so on. For this reason, choose a stroller that features an open-air seat that faces the world (and reclines) after your child has outgrown the car seat.
If you are planning to utilize your
2 in 1 pram set-in-1 travel system on public transport, select one with an ISOFIX base. This will ensure it is safe for you to get on and off buses or trains. Some models, like the Doona can also be installed on trains and planes to make traveling with a baby even more convenient.
