A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat
A 2-in-1 travel system that incorporates a car seat gives parents the convenience of having an infant car seat and stroller that work together. They can be expensive.
These combos let parents easily transfer a sleepy child from the car to the stroller, and reverse the process, without disturbing them. This is a great solution for families that tend to spend much of their time on the go.
Comfort
If you're looking for an easy method to move your baby from the car to stroller without waking them up an infant car seat, a travel system that includes the stroller seat as well as an infant car seat could be the thing you're looking for. Unlike stroller-only combinations, these all-in-ones typically include an infant car seat as well as a stroller that click together, and are suitable for toddlers and newborns. Many of the car seats and strollers combinations on our list come with a bassinet attachment as well and can be an excellent alternative to a stroller for naptime walks.
While a two-in-one travel system with car seat could cost more than separate items but you'll probably save time and money if you buy the two items together. And if you decide later that the stroller and car seat aren't the right fit for your family, many brands offer adaptors that allow you to use the car seat with another stroller (provided it is tall and weighs the same requirements).
When shopping for a travel set, keep in mind that most of these sets come with an infant car-seat as well as a stroller that are designed to work together. These are meant to be used in the first year. If you intend on keeping the car seat and using it beyond this time, you should look for one that has an convertible car seat that can also be used as a toddler's seat and has a higher weight limit.
Some travel systems also feature a second seat that can be used as a booster seat for older kids. This is a wonderful feature, but it may not be practical for your particular lifestyle.
Check out our top picks of strollers and car seats if you're looking for an affordable travel system that will last for a long time. Editor-tested favorites like the UPPAbaby PIPA stroller and car seat combo have numerous features that will keep your child and you comfortable. These products feature springy all-wheel-suspension to smooth out the ride. The PIPA car seat also features an integrated drape canopy to protect a child who is snoozing. They also have rigid LATCH connectors that can be used in vehicles that do not have a base, making it a perfect choice for families who frequently use ride-sharing services or have two cars.
Convenience

Some of the best stroller and car seat combinations also allow you to transform them into a double when your family expands. We like the Thule Urban Glide 2 in 1 pram sale Combo, which features an infant car seat and stroller 2 in 1 that snap into place, instantly transforming into a sleek chariot two. This feature is crucial when you intend to use the car seat for your baby's sole vehicle seat.
Other stroller-car-seat combos might have more complicated conversion procedures. You may need to manually connect the car seat to stroller or use straps attached to base to secure it. This method was more difficult to master during our testing than the Doona's one-step conversion. It can pose a safety risk 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 should also consider whether the infant car seat and stroller will work 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 one. The car seats can't be connected to a stroller after they're no longer needed in the car. Some all-in one car seat/stroller products, like Doona can be used as toddler car seats with the seatbelt booster when your child has outgrown the infant car seat, but it is too big to fit into most conventional strollers.
Car seat/stroller combinations work best 2 in 1 stroller for babies through early childhood. If your child has outgrown the infant car seats, you should look into purchasing a stroller that is separate and replacing the travel system with a bigger model that can handle toddlers and older children. Keep in mind that you must always make sure the infant car seat is fitted correctly and never take it from the vehicle without removing the straps first.
Safety
Car seat and stroller combos allow you to easily move infants from the vehicle to the stroller and back again without disrupting them or having to get them up. This is particularly useful when you're doing errands or traveling, according to Rothman. For extra safety, look for a car seat that is attached to the stroller using either the simple click or the rigid LATCH system. This will ensure that the car seat is secure while used and will not fall off or fall off in transit. Car seat and stroller combinations that can work with or without bases are also great options for ride-share vehicles.
When shopping for a travel system, check the age and weight limits of both the car seat and stroller. The majority of the infant car seats included in these systems are rear-facing and are only meant for use in the first 12 months of your child's life. These car seats can be converted to a forward facing car seat that can be used in the car, or snapped into the stroller. It is essential to study the labels and follow instructions with care, says Stanton especially when it comes to ensuring your child is within the proper weight and height guidelines for both the car seat as well as the stroller.
While some parents prefer buying separate items to create their own travel systems, others prefer pre-packaged strollers and car seats It is not unusual to see companies to offer these sets. These are often priced lower than purchasing the items separately. For example, UPPAbaby's popular Vista stroller that comes with the Mesa infant car seat is an extremely sought-after set. The stroller has an easy ride, with a springy all-wheel suspension and a large basket that can be used to store all of the baby's toys. The car seat has a low profile and comes with a SafeCell crumple zone for added protection. The SafeCenter LATCH makes it easy to put in. The car seat has a four-position adjustable headrest, four harness settings and padding to ensure the comfort of your child. It's easy to clean and comes with a one-hand fold, making it convenient for storage.
Style
It's tempting to purchase an accessory for travel to make it easier to transfer your child from the car to the stroller, without waking them, but that's not the primary reason to think about buying one. You also want to choose one that's stylish, easy to maneuver and comes with a variety of other features that make it comfortable for both your child and yourself.

Strollers and infant cars seats that integrate with pushchair pram 2 in 1-in-1 travel systems are lightweight, durable, and easy to fold and maneuver. Look for models with rubber tires with a swivel wheel on the front for urban streets, and a spacious cargo basket that can fit many shopping bags. You also want to check how the car seat and stroller can be folded to make storage easier.
Some travel systems allow you to replace the infant car seat with a toddler car seat when your child is no longer using it. This allows for an additional two years of use. That's a great option if you're planning on using the car seat for longer than one year, or your partner regularly uses ride-share services or commutes by train or bus.
