Editor-Tested 2 in 1 Travel System Pram

The most effective 2 in 1 car seat stroller in 1 travel system prams make it easy to transfer your baby from car to stroller and back. These sets are editor-tested and approved. They come with a baby seat that snaps onto the stroller frame that matches for a smooth ride.

Be aware that these car seats only work with rear-facing infant car seats (not extended-use car seats, which are designed to remain in the car). The weight and age limitations vary for each product.

Car Seat

A 2 in 1 travel system pram comes with an infant car seat that snaps into the stroller. It also has the ability to transform into a carrycot, making it the perfect one-stop shop for your baby's first few years. These prams cost more than standard strollers, but the ease of transferring your child from the car to the stroller safely and without causing any disturbance to them is worth the extra cost.

A modern take on a traditional pram, the UPPAbaby car seat and pram combo is a favourite for parents. The Vista stroller glides smoothly, and the Mesa infant car seat clip easily into your vehicle via UPPAbaby's Smart Secure LATCH system, which makes it easier than other models to set up. The stroller can also be used in carriage mode or as an infant bassinet. You can also change the orientation of your seat from rear-facing to forward-facing, according to your preference.

The Graco LiteMax infant car seat and stroller combo is a top-rated option that's perfect for parents who are new. Like the Doona it can also be converted into a rolling bassinet or stroller with the option of reclining seats that face your child from the rear or front of the stroller, depending on their preferences. It's simple to use and a great option if you are planning to purchase a second car seat for older children because it can fit up to two in one pram seats.

There are many other options available, too. A lot of 2 in 1 travel systems include a stroller and car seat that can be used from the moment of birth. However, the majority of these car seats aren't compatible with all strollers. The important thing is to choose a product that can work with your specific car model and is safe to be installed. Go through the manufacturer's instructions and Consumer Products Safety Commission website for recalls. You can also call your insurance company to see whether they provide roadside assistance if you require assistance with installation or another issue.

Carrycot

Carrycots are a simple to transport small cot that can be attached to a frame for a pram. It lets babies rest comfortably while on the move. It is ideal to use from birth until your baby is able to sit up without assistance, which is usually about six months. A carrycot is an excellent alternative to a crib or moses basket and can double up as a travel cot when you are away from home. The carrycot on two-in-one pram that is a travel system typically has a wide, flat base and is designed to help your baby's natural sleeping position, which promotes healthy growth and development. Some of our carrycots, including the adorable Stargazer can also be used for sleeping at night and can be easily rolled up and stored away when not in use.

The majority of 3 in 1 prams include a pushchair, car seat and carrycot so you can select the best mode of transport for each journey. They are more bulky than 2 in 1 pram in 1 models and could be a better choice for parents who prefer a classic pram design. These models usually come with the option of removing the pushchair unit so that you can use them as lightweight strollers once your child is old enough to sit upright and face you.

2 in 1 travel system prams that have carrycots usually have a lightweight chassis and fold flat, which makes them more compact and can easily fit into smaller vehicles. They also come with a range of features that make them more practical including large shopping baskets, as well as rain covers.

When you are shopping for a 2- in 1 travel system pram and a carrycot, make sure whether the product you're contemplating is suitable for your child and that it conforms to the latest European safety standards. For example, check that the carrycot complies with the new standard EN 1466:2023 (which replaces the earlier EN zero+:2014+AC, 2015 and will be mandatory by June 2024). Also look out for carrycot accessories such as footmuffs, weather shields and tray dishes for both parents and children to help your child feel safe and comfortable while they're sleeping in their cot.

Stroller

If your child can comfortably sit in a car seat for infants and is ready to walk on their own, a stroller could be the best option. Strollers are easy to fold, compact and can often fit into the boot of the car. They're big enough to hold all of baby's necessities and offer a comfortable ride, even on rough terrain. Some have a spacious bassinet to enable naps while traveling. The top strollers come with the most recent safety features, such as 5-point harnesses, making them an ideal choice for all new parents.

Modern strollers and prams come with adaptors which allow you to connect an automobile capsule to the chassis. This lets you transfer your baby to sleep without disturbing them. This is an excellent feature, particularly for parents who are always on the move. It allows them to run essential errands and not have to disturb their baby. This is best demonstrated with the Doona travel system, a lightweight stroller which can be converted into a carrycot or a group baby seat.

They are simple to handle and can hold a lot of luggage. They are heavy and difficult to transport, and they can be difficult to fit into a small trunk or taxi. However, their ease of use and spaciousness make them ideal for long walks.

The newest 3 in 1 prams come with more modern and sophisticated design. They have frames that fold like an umbrella, and a convertible baby seat or carrycot that can be removed. They are suitable for use from birth, and are lighter than traditional strollers. The carrycot can be transformed into a seat for your child, which reclines when they're ready. Our collection includes the Kinderkraft Juli which is a good value choice that comes with an infant car seat, a carryingcot and pushchair.

Accessories

A pramette is similar to a traditional pram but can fold down much smaller and is perfect for traveling on trains that are busy or if your house doesn't have room for the full-size pram. Many of them convert into pushchairs, so that your baby can lie flat from birth, and some can also be converted into a travel system with the inclusion of car seats. Some of the brands that sell these include Hauck, Kinderkraft and Venicci.

A 3-in-1 travel system bundle includes a carrycot, a pushchair 2 in 1 and car seat for maximum convenience. You simply click the coordinating car seat onto the frame of the pushchair and your baby will have comfortable, peaceful trips out from birth. You can then switch to a stroller when your baby is ready and you'll have an eye-catching modern version of the traditional look of a pram. The Ickle Bubba Juli Travel System bundle is a great illustration of this. It comes with the Carrycot, Infant car seat and is suitable from birth.
