Graco City Select 2 in 1 pram stroller Car Seat & Stroller Travel Systems came out on top in our tests for ease of assembly. The entire process took less than 30 seconds. We connected the infant car seat and toddler seats, that were then affixed to the base with one click. Then, we connected the upper adapter and lower adapter to create space for an additional seat (sold separately), or bassinet. This made a stroller that can grow alongside your family, with more than 22 seating configurations with the included seat, and up to 45 lbs of weight in each seat.
UPPAbaby's Vista v2 Combo also impressed us with its smooth-rolling chassis and springy all-wheel suspension that can handle even rough roads. The combo is costly however it comes with an automobile, bassinet and weather shield that will keep your child comfortable.
We also noticed how it was easy to maneuver the stroller and car seat. The City Mini GT Combo from Baby Jogger comes with one wheel on the front that is great for turning around corners or heading down narrow aisles, while the Thule Urban Glide 2 and BOB Alterrain Pro have swivel wheels that can handle tight turns. We found these options to be easy to push--even with a full car seat seated on top. We also loved the fact that the frame folds easily and compactly.
The Doon was the most straightforward to use. Its simple one-hand fold ("awesome that it can be done with a baby on your hip!" says an editor) and compact size makes it a real space saver. It's also a breeze detach the car seat from the base, with a click and a release. The only drawback is that it requires straps for the carrier to be secured. Some parents might overlook the straps, but it's a minor complaint.

However, the Doona isn't suitable for infants younger than 4 months, as it can only be removed from the base and attaches to the stroller with only one hand. It is also difficult to fold when the infant carrier is on. The Nuna Pipa is the best 2 in 1 pushchair option for infants, as it doesn't require an infant carrier base and can be used with a rigid LATCH connector that is built into the car seat.
It's more expensive than the Doona but offers other features that make it a worthwhile investment. The Pipa is light and folds down to an upright position, meaning it's easy to carry around. It's also a bit bigger than the Doona and can hold a medium-sized backpack. The canopy is also impressive, offering multiple options for adjusting the amount of coverage and ensuring shade.

Evenflo Shyft DualRide, a stroller and car seat, is a good choice. It folds easily and compactly.

These include a large canopy and easy-to-use brakes.
