Easy to Assemble

The best stroller-car seat combos are easy for you to assemble, attach to your vehicle and then take it off of the stroller. A good rule of thumb is to set 5 minutes or less to get everything ready to go, Moriarty says. A simple, intuitive procedure helps you avoid mistakes that could put your child at risk.

Graco City Select 2 Car Seat and Stroller Travel Systems stood out in our tests regarding ease of assembly. pram 2 in 1 took less than 30 seconds. We connected the infant car seat and toddler seat, which was then attached to the base via a single click. Then we connected the upper adapter and the lower adapter to allow for an additional seat (sold separately), or bassinet. This allows you to create a stroller that grows with your family. It comes with over 22 seat configurations available and can carry up to 45 pounds per seat.

UPPAbaby's Vista v2 Combo impressed us as well with its sprung all-wheel suspension that is able to handle rough roads. However, the combination isn't cheap but it comes with a car seat, bassinet, and weather shield to keep your little one comfortable.

We also noticed how it was easy for us to maneuver the stroller. The City Mini GT Combo from Baby Jogger comes with one wheel on the front that is great for turning around corners and going down narrow aisles, while the Thule Urban Glide 2 and BOB Alterrain Pro have swivel wheels to make tight turns. We found these models to be a breeze to push even with a full car seat on top. We also liked that the frame folds down easily and compactly.

The Doon was the most straightforward to use. Its compact size and one-hand fold (which an editor found "amazing that you can do this with a baby on the hip!") make it an ideal space-saving device. The car seat can be separated from its base with a simple click and release. The only issue with the Doon is that it requires straps for the carrier to be secured. Parents may overlook them, but that's just an issue of minor importance.

The unique design of this stroller makes it easy to change it from a baby carrier to the toddler seat, letting you switch out the car seat for your growing child's requirements. It is also designed to be compact and folds flat which makes it a great option for those who travel. It was easy to move through our tests and the suspension is great. We are thrilled the fact that it can be put away off with the seat attached and that the handlebar is adjustable.

The Doona is not suitable for infants younger than 4 months since it can be taken off only with one hand and attached to the stroller. It's difficult to fold once the infant carrier is on. Nuna Pipa which does not require a base, is a better choice for infants. It also has a sturdy LATCH connection built into the car seat.

It's more expensive than the Doona however it comes with other features which make it worth the money. The Pipa is lightweight it folds flat and can be carried easily. It's also a little bigger than the Doona and can hold a medium-size backpack. And its canopy is very impressive, with multiple options for adjusting the coverage as well as providing shade.

These include a large canopy and easy-to use brakes.

When you're looking for a car-seat and stroller combo, other features to consider include a one-hand recline, an easy-to-use buckle and harness, as well as a sun canopy that can be extended.

The buckle and harness are easy to use, meaning there is no need for complicated straps. This makes it simpler to secure your toddler.

Safety First

A quality car seat and stroller combination can help you keep your child safe on the move.
