A 2 in 1 Travel System With Car Seat

A two-in-one travel system that incorporates a car seat gives parents the convenience of having a baby car seat and a stroller that work together. They can be costly.

These combos let parents easily move a sleeping child from the car to the stroller and reverse the process, without disturbing them up. This is a great solution for families who spend much of their time in the car.

Comfort

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

While a 2 in 1 pushchair-in-1 travel system with a car seat might cost more than separate items but you'll probably save time and money by purchasing them all in one package. And if you decide later on that the car seat and stroller aren't the right fit for your family, a majority of manufacturers offer adapters that allow you to use your chosen car seat with a stroller (provided it is tall and weighs the same requirements).

One thing to be aware of when looking for a travel set is that these sets usually include a car seat for infants and a stroller designed to work in tandem, which is meant to be used for the first 12 months. If you plan to keep the seat and using it after this period, look for one with a convertible car seat that can also be used as a toddler's seat and has a greater weight limit.

Some travel systems also feature an additional seat that can serve as a booster seat for older kids. While this is a great option however, it's not necessary and may not be practical depending on your lifestyle.

Check out our top choices of strollers and car seats if you're looking for an budget-friendly travel system that can last for many years. Tested by our editors, favorites like the UPPAbaby PIPA stroller and car seat combination have numerous features that will keep you and your child in a comfortable position. These products feature springy all-wheel-suspension to smooth out the ride. The PIPA car seat also comes with an integrated drape canopy that can protect a child who is snoozing. They also have rigid LATCH connectors that can be used with vehicles without a base, making it a perfect option for families who regularly use ride-share services or have two cars.

Convenience

Car seat/stroller combinations are great for parents who regularly run errands or take their baby out on public transport like trains and buses. They let you easily transfer your sleeping newborn from the car to the stroller without disturbing or waking them up.

Some of the best stroller and car seat combinations also allow you to transform to a double as your family expands. We love the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo that comes with an infant car seat and stroller that click into place, instantly transforming them into a sleek chariot that can accommodate two. This is particularly crucial if the car seat will be your baby's primary vehicle seat.

Other stroller-car seat combos may have more complex conversion methods. You may need to manually connect the car seat to stroller or use straps attached to the base to ensure it is secured. In our testing this method was generally harder to master than the single-step method of the Doona. If you misplace or forget the straps, it can cause a safety risk.

While a combo of a stroller and car seat is convenient, you should take into consideration whether the stroller and infant car seat will work together for as long as you need them to. The majority of car seat/stroller combos are rear-facing only infant car seats that are designed to be used until your child turns one. The car seats can't be attached to strollers once they are no longer required in the car. Some all-in-one car seats and strollers like the Doona is able to be used as a car seat for toddlers with the seat belt booster when your child has outgrown the car seat that was designed for infants, but is too tall for the standard strollers.

Car seat/stroller combinations are best for infants and toddlers until early childhood. If your child is out of the infant car seat, you can replace the travel system with a larger stroller which can be used for older children and toddlers. Keep in mind that you must ensure your infant car seat is fitted correctly and never take it from the vehicle without removing the straps first.

Safety

The combination of the car seat and stroller allows for easy transfer of infants from a car to a stroller, and reverse the process without disturbing or waking them up. Rothman says this is especially useful when you are running errands and traveling. To ensure extra safety, choose a car seat which attaches to a stroller with a rigid LATCH system or click-on system. This will ensure that the car seat is secured during use and will not slide off or come loose in transit. Car seat and stroller combinations that work without or with a base are good options for ride-share vehicles.

When you purchase a travel system be sure to verify the weight and age limits for both the stroller and the car seat. Most 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 majority of these car seats transition to a forward-facing car seat that can be used in the vehicle or can be converted into a stroller compatible with it. Stanton insists that you read all labels and instructions, especially when it comes time to make sure that your child is in compliance with the weight and height requirements of the car seat as well as the stroller.

While some parents prefer to buy separate products to create their own travel system, others prefer pre-packaged stroller and car seats It is not unusual to see companies to offer these sets. These sets are usually cheaper than purchasing them individually. For instance, UPPAbaby's bestselling Vista stroller and Mesa infant car seat is an extremely sought-after set. The stroller offers a smooth ride, springy suspension on all wheels, and a huge storage basket that can hold everything your baby needs. The car seat is slim and comes with a SafeCell crumple zone for extra security. It has a quick and simple installation, thanks to the exclusive SafeCenter LATCH. The car seat has a four-position adjustable headrest with four harness settings as well as an insert that is cushioned to ensure your child's safety. It is easy to clean, and folds with just one hand.

Style

While it's tempting to purchase an infant travel system due to the ease of moving your baby from stroller to car and back without having to wake them up, it's not the only reason to think about one. You should also look for one with a sleek design, which is simple to use and comes with a variety of other features to ensure your child's comfort and yours.

Travel systems that are the most efficient include the infant car stroller, car seat, and stroller base all in one box to allow you to transfer from your vehicle to the street. These systems typically include an all-in-one car seat that can be easily converted into a stroller compatible with it. Some even have a bassinet for naps (safety studies have shown that babies sleep better when they are in the reclining position).

Strollers and infant car seats designed to work with two in one travel systems are light and durable, making them easy to push, maneuver, and fold. Look for models that have rubber tires, a swivel wheel on the front for city streets, a large cargo basket, and can accommodate multiple shopping bags. You should also consider how compact the car seat and stroller can be folded to make it easier to store them.

Certain travel systems allow you to replace the infant car seat with a toddler car seat when your child grows out of it. This allows for an additional 1-2 years use. This is a great option if you plan to use the car seat for more than one year, or your partner regularly uses ride-sharing services or commutes by bus or train.

The All-in-One Car Seat and Stroller is a top option for families who want an all-in-one solution. The built-in rigid system of LATCH lets you easily switch between car seats and strollers and back. It is also certified for air travel so you can hop onto and off public transportation with ease. The All-in-One Car Seat & Stroller can be converted into a double stroller, so you can take your child on adventures around the globe. It comes in a variety of vibrant colors that will complement any wardrobe.
