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

The Car Seat Buggy 2 in 1, is a combination of two of the most important baby items: strollers and infant car seats. It makes getting on and off public transport (and climbing and descending steps) much more convenient.

One of the best options is the Doona infant car seat & stroller combination. It's the world's first completely 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 easy to use are a must for parents. These systems let you easily switch between running errands walking the dog and going for an outing. You can also keep track of the changing requirements of your child so that you can take your family on adventures. These travel systems glide smoothly and effortlessly, whether they have one front wheel or two. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo and the BOB Alterrain Pro combo are particularly easy to maneuver, but even the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo and the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo can be moved easily using just one hand.

Some models are difficult to attach or remove from the base. The Doona Combo requires a two step attachment process, and straps that cover the bottom of the infant carrier. It is tempting to skip these steps, but this could lead to dangerous results.

Certain models are also more difficult to fold or store than others, which makes them less convenient. The Graco FastAction 3-in-1 Car Seat Stroller, for example, is difficult to fold due to its huge dimensions and bulky frame. This model also has a small canopy, which some testers find to be disappointing. The Britax Parkway Combo Click and Go is easy to fold down with one button and pulling the lever. It is also a great choice for parents who intend to use their car seat on other people's vehicles, since it can be removed from the base and attached to any stroller that is standard.

Easy to Fold

If you're storing your car seat on its own, in the trunk of your vehicle or even in a closet, it should be easy to fold and unfold. The best combos we've tested feature a simple fold that's one-handed and strong enough to be used on long strolls. They're also easy to maneuver, moving smoothly over bumps and uneven surfaces. We've seen a few combinations that can only be attached or disengaged using straps which may feel like an extra step and make it harder for parents to ensure that the car seat is secured properly.

We are awestruck by the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo for its handy features and sturdy construction which include a large storage basket that is accessible from the front to back. Its exclusive SafeCenter LATCH makes it easy to achieve a secure car seat installation by simply connecting the lower anchors and pulling the straps tight and clicking the carrier into the base.

It is also relatively light and compact, making it a great option for families and frequent travelers who have multiple vehicles. Both the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 in 1 pram sale Combo and the Thule Urban Glide 2 in 1 pram pushchair scored high in our user-friendliness tests. Both come with one front wheel that is easy to push (one-handed! Both have a single front wheel which is easy to push (one-handed!). They also have a movable swivel wheel, perfect for shopping or running errands. The only issue is that they're quite heavy and may be difficult to lift when a baby is in car seats.

Easy to Assemble

Some car seat and stroller combinations can be difficult to assemble. The UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo is one of the simplest travel systems to put together. It includes a helpful guide. Other models, such as 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: attaching the lower anchors and using straps to protect the bottom of the carrier. It's heavy, so it takes two people to click the carrier into the base, and then detach it.

In our tests it took us around 5 minutes to put the UPPAbaby v2 together, which is a bit quick when you consider the time it saves by not having to take out the pieces. The toddler seat can be put together and detached easily on most of these models.
