Car Seat Buggy 2 in 1 - Combos That Are Easy to Use
Car seat buggy 2 in 1 blends the two most essential baby equipment pieces including the infant car seat and the stroller. 2in1 pram makes it much easier to take public transportation (and walk up and down stairs).
One of the best options for this 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 sleepy baby.
Simple to use
Parents should have a stroller and car seat combination that is easy to use. These travel systems allow you to easily switch between running errands walking your dog and going for an outing. You can also adapt to the ever-changing needs of your child, so you can take your family on adventures. These travel systems move smoothly and effortlessly, whether they have one front wheel or two. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo as well as the BOB Alterrain Pro combo, and the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo are all easy to maneuver. However, the BOB Revolutionflex 3.0 Combo and Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo can be pulled with one hand.
Some models are difficult to remove or attach from the base. The Doona Combo requires a two step process of attachment, and straps which cover the bottom of the infant carrier. It may be tempting to bypass these steps, but this could lead to unsafe outcomes.
Similarly certain models are difficult to fold and store away, which makes them less practical than other. Graco FastAction 3 in 1 Car Seat Stroller is difficult to fold due to its massive dimensions and heavy frames. It also has a small canopy, which some testers find disappointing. However, the Britax Parkway Click and Go Combo is easy to fold using a pull of the lever and a click of an button. This model is an excellent option for parents who wish to use their car seat in other vehicles, since it is able to be removed from the base.
Easy to Fold
It should be easy to unfold and fold the car seat, no matter if you are storing it in your trunk, or in the closet. The most effective combinations we've tested fold easily with just one hand and are durable enough to be used on long walks. They're also easy to maneuver, gliding smoothly over bumps and uneven surfaces. Some combos can only be attached and detached by straps. This could seem like a step in the back and make it more difficult for parents to secure their car seat properly.
We love the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo for its handy features and sturdy construction which include a large storage basket that is accessible from front to back. Its exclusive SafeCenter LATCH makes it easy to achieve a secure car seat installation by connecting the lower anchors by pulling the straps tightly and then pressing the carrier into the base.
It's also fairly light, making it a great option for frequent travellers or families with multiple vehicles. Both the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo and the Thule Urban Glide 2 scored high in our ease of use tests. Both have a single wheel that is simple to push with one hand. ), as well as a swivel wheel with a variety of angles which is ideal for shopping and running the errands. The only downside is that they are heavy and may be difficult to lift when a baby is in a car seat.
Easy to Assemble
Some stroller and car seat combinations can be difficult to assemble. We found that the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo was one of the easiest to build, and it even comes with a quick-start guide that makes putting this travel system together a breeze. Other models, including the UPPAbaby Minu and UPPAbaby Vista v2, Thule urban Glide 2 and Baby Trend Snap-N-Go EX Universal were also fairly easy to put together. The BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo, on the other hand, is difficult to assemble. It requires two steps connecting the lower anchors as well as using straps to protect the bottom of the carrier. It's also very heavy, which means it takes two hands to click the carrier into the base, then detach it from there.
In our tests it took us around 5 minutes to put the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 together. This is relatively fast when you consider how much time is saved by not having to take out the pieces. Most of these models have an easy method of attaching and detaching the toddler's seat, as well.
