A 2 in 1 travel system with car seat (Read the Full Post)

A 2 in 1 travel system that incorporates a car seat offers parents the convenience of having an infant car seat and stroller that work together. However they can be costly.

These combos let parents easily move a sleeping child from the car to the stroller, and in reverse, without disturbing them. This is an excellent option for families that are constantly moving.

Comfort

Travel systems that come with a stroller and infant car seat are a great option to make the transition from the car to stroller a breeze. Contrary to stroller-only systems, all-in-ones typically include an infant car seat as well as a stroller that can be linked and are suitable for toddlers and newborns. A lot of the car-and-stroller combos that we have listed have a bassinet included and can be used as an alternative for a traditional stroller during naptime walks.

While a 2 in 1 travel system with a car seat could cost more than separate products but you'll probably save time and money by purchasing the two items together. If you decide that the stroller and car seat aren't right for your family later there are adaptors for most brands that allow you to use the car seat with another stroller.

When looking for a travel set be aware that the majority of them come with an infant car seat and a stroller that are designed to work together. They are designed to be used in the first year. If you intend on keeping the car seat and using it past this time, you should look for an option that has a convertible car seat that can be used as a toddler car seat and has a greater weight limit.

Some travel systems also have a second seat that can be used as a booster seat for older children. While this is a good option, it's not a necessity and may not be practical based on your life style.

Check out our top picks of strollers and car seats to find an affordable travel system that will last for several years. Our editors' top picks include the UPPAbaby PIPA car seat and Vista stroller combination come with a variety of features to ensure that you and your baby stay comfortable. These strollers feature a springy all-wheel suspension to smooth the ride and the PIPA car seat comes with an inbuilt drape canopy that is perfect to shield a sleepy child. These seats also have rigid LATCH connectors that can be used on vehicles that do not have a base. This makes them an ideal choice for families who frequently ride-share or have two cars.

Convenience

Car seat/stroller combos are great for parents who often run errands or take their baby out on public transport such as buses and trains. They let you easily move your sleeping baby from the car to the stroller without disturbing them or awakening them.

Some of the best stroller-car seat combinations can be turned into a double as you expand your family. We like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo which comes with an infant car seat and stroller that click into place to instantly transform into a sleek chariot that can accommodate two. This is especially important if the car seat is your baby's primary vehicle seat.

Other car seat and stroller combinations have more complicated conversion techniques that require you to manually snap the car seat of your infant onto the stroller or use the straps that are attached to the base to hold it in place. In our tests this method, it was harder to master than the one-step process of the Doona. It can pose an accident hazard when you forget or misplace the straps to secure the straps prior using the travel system.

A combination of a car seat and stroller is a great option but you must consider whether the strollers and infant car seats can work as long as you want them to. The majority of car seat/stroller combos are rear-facing only infant car seats that are made to be used until your child turns one. These car seats cannot be attached to a stroller once they're no longer needed in the car. Some all-in-one car seat/stroller products such as the Doona can be used as a car seat for toddlers with an additional seat belt booster once your child has outgrown the infant car seat but is too tall for the standard strollers.

The best combination is an infant car seat and a stroller for newborns to early childhood. When your child has grown out of the infant car seat, you can change the travel system to larger strollers that can accommodate older children and toddlers. Keep in mind that you must always make sure that your infant car seat is installed correctly and never take it from the vehicle without taking off the straps first.

Safety

Car seats and strollers make it easy to transfer infants from the car to the stroller and back without disrupting them or having to get them up. Rothman says this is especially beneficial when you're running errands and traveling. To ensure your safety, opt for a car seat that attaches to the stroller with either the simple click or the rigid LATCH system. This will ensure that the car seat will be secured during use and won't fall off or become loose during transportation. Car seat and stroller combinations that work without or with a base are good alternatives for ride-share vehicles.

When you are looking for a travel system, check the weight and age limits of both the car seat and the stroller. Typically, the infant car seats that are included in these systems are rear-facing, and are only designed for use during the first 12 months of your child's life. A lot of these seats transition to a forward-facing car seat that can be used in the vehicle or be converted into a stroller compatible with it. Stanton insists that you read all labels and instructions, especially when it comes time to ensure your child's weight and height requirements of the car seat as well as the stroller.

Some parents prefer to buy separate items to create their own travel system, others prefer buying pre-packaged stroller and car seats It is not unusual to find companies that offer these sets. These sets are typically less expensive than purchasing them individually. For instance, UPPAbaby's Vista stroller with the Mesa infant car seat is a sought-after set. The stroller has a smooth ride, a springy suspension on all wheels, and a huge storage basket that can hold everything you need for your baby. The car seat is 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 a four-position headrest and four harness heights as well as an insert that is cushioned for your little one's comfort. It's easy to clean and comes with one-hand fold, making it convenient for storage.

Style

While it's tempting to purchase a travel system for the ease of moving your baby from stroller to car and back without having to wake them up, that's not the only reason to consider one. You should also look for an option with a fashionable design, that is easy to move around and has many other features to ensure your child's comfort and yours.

The best travel systems best include an infant car stroller, car seat and stroller base in one box to make it easier for you to transition from your vehicle to the street. They usually come with a single-piece infant car seat that snaps into a stroller that is compatible and some offer a bassinet attachment for naptime strolls (safety research suggests that babies sleep best when in a reclined position).

Strollers and infant cars seats that are compatible with 2 in 1 carrycot and pushchair-in-1 travel systems are light, durable, and easy to fold and maneuver. Find models with rubber tires, a swivel wheel on the front to allow for city streets, a large cargo basket, and can accommodate multiple shopping bags. For easy storage make sure to check how the strollers and car seats fold when folded.

Some travel systems let you change the infant car seat with a toddler car seat once your child has outgrown it. This allows you to enjoy an additional 2 to 3 years of use. This is an excellent option for those who intend to use the seat for more than a year or if they have a companion who commutes by train, bus or ride-share.

Graco’s All-in One Car Seat and Stroller makes a great choice for families who are looking for a solution that is all-in one. The integrated rigid system of LATCH lets you easily switch between car seats and strollers and back. It's also approved for air travel, so you can get on and off public transportation with ease. The All-in-One Car Seat and Stroller can also be converted into a double stroller, which allows you to take your little one on adventures around the world. It's also available in a range of vibrant colors to match any outfit.
