Car Seat Buggy 2 in 1 - Combos That Are Easy to Use
The Car Seat Buggy 2 in 1 combines two of the most crucial baby items: infant car seats and strollers. It makes getting off and on public transportation (and climbing and descending steps) much more convenient.
One of the best options is the Doona infant car seat & stroller combo. It's the first integrated travel system that allows you to switch between your car seat and stroller in a matter of seconds without disturbing your sleeping baby.
Simple to use
Car seat and stroller combos that are simple to use are a must for parents. 2 in 1 stroller and car seat allow you to effortlessly switch between running errands or walking the dog before going for a run. They also help you keep up with your little one's changing needs so that you can focus on enjoying your family's adventures. Our test subjects are awed by how smoothly and conveniently these travel systems glide, regardless of whether they have only one front wheel or a rotating front wheel. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo and the BOB Alterrain Pro combo are especially easy to maneuver however, the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo and the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo can be pulled easily with a single hand.
Some models can be difficult to attach or remove from the base. The Doona Combo requires a two step process for attachment, as well as straps which cover the bottom of the infant carrier. It's tempting to skip the steps, but it could result in unsafe results.
Similarly, some models are difficult to fold and store away and store away, making them less convenient than others. The Graco FastAction 3-in-1 Car Seat Stroller, for instance, is hard to fold due to its massive dimensions and bulky frame. Some reviewers are also disappointed by the canopy on this model disappointing. The Britax Parkway Combo Click and Go is simple to fold down with a push of a button and a pull of the lever. It is also a good choice for parents who are planning on using their car seat on other people's vehicles as it can be removed from the base and reattached to any standard stroller.
Easy to Fold
It doesn't matter if you're keeping the car seat on its own, in the trunk of your car or even in a closet, it must be simple to fold and unfold. The most effective combinations we've tested fold easily in one hand and are strong enough to be used on long walks. They're also simple to move, sliding effortlessly over bumps and uneven surfaces. Some combos are connected and removed using straps. This can feel like a second step, and can make it difficult for parents to secure their car seat properly.
We love the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo due to its practical features and sturdy build, that include a huge storage basket that's accessible from front to back. Its exclusive SafeCenter LATCH makes it easy to achieve a secure car seat installation simply by connecting the lower anchors and pulling the straps tight and then pressing the carrier into the base.
It is also relatively light which makes it a great option for families and frequent travelers with multiple vehicles. 2 in 1 buggy , and the Thule Urban Glide 2 scored highly in our user-friendliness tests. Both feature one front wheel that's easy to push (one-handed! ) and a versatile swivel front wheel that's perfect for shopping and running errands. The only downside is that they're very heavy and therefore it can be difficult to lift them up when carrying a child in a car seat.
Easy to Assemble
Some car seat and stroller combinations are difficult to put together. 2 in 1 pram and pushchair found that the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo was one of the most simple to build, and it even comes with a quick-start guide that makes putting this system together easy. Other models we tested like the UPPAbaby Minu, UPPAbaby Vista v2, Thule Urban Glide 2 and Baby Trend Snap-N-Go EX Universal were also relatively easy to assemble. In contrast the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo is difficult to assemble because it requires two steps - attaching the lower anchors and using straps that go over the bottom of the carrier. It's also heavy, and it requires two hands to snap the carrier into the base and detach it from the base.
In our tests, it took around 5 minutes to assemble the UPPAbaby v2 Cruz. This is a quick process when you consider the time saved by not having to take out all the pieces. The toddler seat can be attached and removed with ease on most of these models.
