TRAVEL SYSTEM
If you opt for a 2-in-1 pushchair with car seats, your child will be able to travel safely in an infant car seat that snaps directly onto the frame of the stroller.

Be sure to check the product specifications to make sure your car seat and stroller work in tandem.
Most 2-in-1 travel system come with a car seat for your baby and the pushchair.

Some models, like the Doona infant base and car seat offer more convenience. The Doona is a hybrid of a stroller and a car seat that folds up underneath itself to become a stroller once removed from the vehicle. It's a great choice for families that travel often because the Doona is safe to use with car seat carriers in both cars and airplanes.
Other travel systems such as the MOOV, VEO and PRIME 2020 have a seat unit that clicks into the frame of the pushchair. Seats can be folded into smaller sizes and some even have multiple recline positions so that your child is comfortable in any position. Some come with an extended hood that protects your child from the elements of wind and sun and you can also add accessories such as a footmuff or bags for shopping.

Accessories
A travel system is made up of a car seat, a pushchair or carrycot (depending on the model). The majority of models come with an adapter for car seats that snaps onto the chassis to secure your baby's i-Size infant car seat. It can be clipped to the seat component or fixed directly to the chassis and not the seat component. Check that the base and adaptors for car seats are included in the cost of the travel system.
Babies can stay for up to six months in a comfy lie-flat carrycot before switching to a pushchair. Select a model that offers various reclining positions to ensure your baby's satisfaction. Check that the seat can be adjusted to face backwards or forwards in accordance with the age of the child.
Some strollers and cars seats require a two-step attachment where the straps are placed in place and then tightened. This can be more challenging and time-consuming, and could create the possibility of error. We are looking for combinations with one-step car seat attachments that are simple to use. They score high in our tests.
In terms of handling an easy ride is crucial. We prefer models with rubber wheels and one wheel on the front, which offer quick handling in rough terrains. We also prefer models with a single wheel or that can be pulled by one hand. This allows for easy moving around cafes and shops.
Consider how it is easy for the chassis to fold - this is important for travel systems. A simple mechanism will be needed to lift the chassis from and into the car boot. Find a lock that is automatic that will keep the chassis level during storage and a convenient strap to help with this. Find a bin that can hold all the essentials of your family, and also a cup holder for the parent so that you can drink your own beverage while on the go.
