2 in 1 Car Seat Stroller Combos

We like combinations that make the car seat feel like it's an integral part of the stroller. Strollers and carseats that don't require any pressure to attach or detach, are less likely to make mistakes (both intentionally and inadvertently).

The best car seat/stroller combos are simple quick, and provide a loud click when they're connected.

Easy to Assemble

Car seat and stroller combos are an excellent option for parents who are on the move. The stroller can be put together in one step and the infant car seat snapped into place without the need to attach straps. They also make it simpler to change from car to stroller, and back again and back again, which is useful for those who are doing errands, or taking a quick walk in the park with your child.

In our tests of the car-seat-stroller combination, the speed and ease of assembly, the connection between the infant car seat, stroller and the ease for both seats to be moved through town are all evaluated. The elements of a car seat and stroller combo should be durable and lightweight. It's also important to pick a combination that will be able to meet the growing demands of your family. For instance, if plan to have twins in the future then you'll need a convertible stroller that can accommodate two car seats, and then convert into triple strollers.

The UPPAbaby Combo Cruz V2 is a fantastic choice due to its easy, intuitive assembly and its durable, reliable quality. We also love that it comes fully equipped with the UPPAbaby Minu infant car seat as well as the UPPAbaby 2nd Seat Kit 2.0. This kit includes the Seat, as well as Upper and Lower Adapters to raise the seat to make enough space for a second. It also comes with the Riding Board accessory.

The Doona Car Seat and Stroller Combo is another outstanding product. Its seamless transition from car to stroller only takes a few minutes, and frees up space in the trunk for more groceries or shopping bags. This innovative product from Doona is also simple to install in your car with its LATCH base and click-in design.

Other combos that are easy to put together include the Thule Urban Glide 2 and the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo. All of them feature rubber tires with a single wheel that allows for easy pushing, and the versatility of a swivel rear wheel for running or jogging errands. The iCandy Peony Combo is our most popular because it features an simple-to-use, one-hand fold mechanism as well as a large basket for storage to store everything you need for your travels.

Easy to Fold

The most effective 2 in 1 car seat strollers can fold down and put away with minimal effort. They also come with a storage tray and cup holders, which are useful for parents on the go. Many models also come with a parent console that has two cup holders and a covered compartment for keys and other belongings. Additionally, the handlebars on these strollers are adjustable so you can adjust it to your height. This makes it easier to move and push, and some of the best performers in our car seat and stroller combo reviews have excellent scores for ease of use.

It is important to ensure that the car seat and the base of the stroller you purchase are compatible as you won't be able to remove the infant carrier from the stroller when it's not attached to its base in your vehicle. The top-rated travel systems have an attachment that works with LATCH. This is the most secure method to set up a base for newborns. Others have a click-in only attachment, which is less complicated than the ones that require straps.

A handful of stroller and car seat combinations, such as the Doona Combo, have a one-and-done design that allows you to fold the entire thing into a compact and light bundle. This is especially useful for parents who take public transportation or rideshares often or switch between caregivers.

Evenflo Shyft DualRide is another convenient travel system. It's similar to the Doona, in that the car seats are able to unfold from the base of the stroller. However, you can't remove the car seat from the stroller when it's not in your vehicle, which could be a hassle if you plan to switch between caregivers often or run errands without your child in the back seat.

Other stroller and car seat combos, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo baby prams 2 in 1 Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo and BOB Alterrain Pro have car seat adapters that can be clicked-in only and do not require straps, which makes it easier. They're still a little bulkier than the Doona, but they have excellent scores for maneuverability and can be used with the majority of infant car seats.
