Car Seat Buggy 2 in 1 - Combos That Are Easy to Use

Car seat buggy 2 in 1 blends two of the most important pieces of baby gear that is the infant car seat and the stroller. It makes getting off and on public transport (and walking up and down steps) much easier.

Doona's infant car seat and stroller combo is a great choice. It's the first fully integrated travel system in the world that allows you to change from the car seat to the stroller without causing disruption to your baby.

Simple to use

Parents must have a car seat and stroller combination that is simple to use. These travel systems let you easily switch between running errands walking the dog before going for an exercise. You can also keep up with the changing needs of your child, so you can enjoy your family adventures. Our testers are impressed by the ease and speed with which these travel systems glide, regardless of whether they have only one front wheel or a swiveling front wheel. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo and the BOB Alterrain Pro combo are incredibly easy to maneuver however, the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo and the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo can be pushed effortlessly with just one hand.

Certain models are difficult to attach or detach from the base, though. The Doona Combo requires a two step process of attachment, and straps which cover the bottom of the infant carrier. It's tempting to skip these steps, but it could result in dangerous results.

Similarly some models are hard to fold and put away making them less convenient than others. The Graco FastAction 3-in-1 Car Seat Stroller, for example, is difficult to fold due to its huge dimensions and heavy frame. This model also has a small canopy, which some users find disappointing. On the other hand, the Britax Parkway Click and Go Combo is easy to fold using the pull of the lever and a click of an button. It is also a great choice for parents who plan on using their car seat on vehicles of other people, since it is able to be easily removed from the base and then attached to any standard stroller.

Easy to Fold

It should be easy to unfold and fold the car seat, regardless of whether you're storing it in your trunk or the closet. The best combinations we've tested fold easily in one hand and are sturdy enough to be used on long walks. They're also easy to maneuver, gliding smoothly over uneven surfaces and bumps. We've seen a few combinations that can only be connected or disengaged using straps which can seem like an extra step and make it harder for parents to secure the car seat properly.

The BOB Revolution Flex Combo is a fantastic choice for its sturdy construction and convenient features, including a large storage bin that is accessible from the back or front. SafeCenter LATCH, a unique feature of the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo, makes it easy to install car seats by connecting the lower anchors and pulling the straps tightly.

It's also light and compact, making it a great option for families and frequent travelers with multiple vehicles. Both the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo and the Thule Urban Glide 2 in 1 highchair scored highly in our user-friendliness tests. Both feature one front wheel that is easy to push (one-handed! Both have one front wheel that is easy to push (one-handed!). They also have a movable swivel wheel, perfect for shopping or running errands. The only downside is that they're quite heavy and therefore it's difficult to lift them up when carrying a child in the car seat.

Easy to Assemble

Certain car seat and stroller combinations can be difficult to put together. The UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo is one of the easiest travel systems to put together. It comes with a helpful guide. Other models we looked at, such as the UPPAbaby Minu, UPPAbaby Vista V2 Thule Urban Glide 2 and Baby Trend Snap-N-Go EX Universal, were also fairly easy to put together. Contrary to that the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo is difficult to put together as it requires two steps: attaching the lower anchors, and using straps to cover the bottom portion of the carrier. It's also heavy, so it takes two hands to snap the carrier into the base, then detach it from there.

In our tests, we took about 5 minutes to assemble the UPPAbaby Cruz. This is a easy process when you consider the time saved from not having to rip out each piece. The toddler seat can be slid into and detached easily on most of these models.
