Editor-Tested 2 in 1 Travel System Pram

The best 2 in 1 travel system prams make it easy to transfer your child from car to stroller and back again. Tested by an editor and approved, these sets come with an infant car seat that snaps into a matching stroller frame to ensure a safe ride for your child.

Note that these car seats are only compatible with rear-facing infant car seats (not extended-use car seats that are designed to be used in the car). The weight and age limitations vary for each product.

Car Seat

A 2 in 1 travel system pram has car seats that can be put into the stroller. It can also be transformed into an infant carrycot. 2 in 1 stroller with car seat is a one-stop shop for your baby's initial years. They can be more expensive than a standard stroller, however the ease and security of transferring your baby from the car to the stroller without disturbing them is worth the extra cost.

A modern take on a traditional pram, the UPPAbaby car seat and pram set is a favourite for parents. The Vista stroller is a smooth ride and the Mesa infant car seat is clipped easily into your vehicle via UPPAbaby's Smart Secure LATCH system, which makes it simpler than other models to install. The stroller can be used in carriage mode or as an infant bassinet. You can also alter the direction of your seat from forward-facing to rear-facing depending on your preference.


The Graco LiteMax infant car seat and stroller combo is another highly-rated product that is ideal for parents with young children. It can be transformed into a rolling stroller or bassinet, and the reclining seat can face your child in either direction, based on the child's preference. It's simple to use and can be a great option if you are planning to purchase a second car seat for older siblings because it can accommodate two seats.

There are many other options available. Many 2 in 1 travel system prams come with a baby car seat and stroller that can be used from birth, but most car seats don't work with all strollers, so it's important to do your research prior to purchasing. The important thing is to get a quality product that works with your particular car model and that is safe to be installed. Go to the Consumer Product Safety Commission's website and the manufacturer's guidelines for recalls. You can also contact your insurance company to find out if they offer roadside assistance if you require assistance with an installation or other issue.

Carrycot

A carrycot is an easy-to-transport, small cot that can be affixed to a pram frame. It lets babies sleep in comfort while traveling. It's ideal for use from birth until your baby is able to sit up unassisted, usually at around 6 months. A carrycot can also be used as a substitute to a crib or a moses basket. It can also double up as a bed to use when you're away from home. The carrycot of a 2 in1 travel system pram generally large and flat. It supports your baby's natural position for sleep and encourages healthy growth. Some of our carrycots, like the adorable Stargazer can also be used for overnight sleeping and can be easily collapsed and stored when not in use.

Most 3 in 1, combination prams are able to combine a pushchair with a car seat or carrycot, allowing you to choose the most suitable mode of transport for your journey. They tend to be bulkier than their 2 in 1 counterparts, and could be preferred by parents who like the traditional look of prams. These models usually have the option to remove the pushchair unit so that they can be used as lightweight strollers once your child is old enough to sit straight and face you.

They are usually lightweight and fold flat. This makes them easier to be tucked away in smaller vehicles. They have many features that make them more convenient. These include large shopping baskets, rain covers and lightweight chassis.

If you are looking for a 2 in one travel system pram that includes a carrycot, ensure that the product you're contemplating is suitable for your child and meets the latest European safety standards. For example, check that the carrycot complies with the latest standard EN 1466:2023 (which replaces the previous EN zero+:2014+AC, 2015 and will be mandatory by June 2024). Look out for carrycot accessories such as weather shields and footmuffs. There are also parent and child trays.

Stroller

A stroller is the best option when your baby is comfortable in a car seat for infants and is ready to begin walking on their own. Strollers are easy to fold and compact, and typically fit in the boot of the car. They are spacious enough to accommodate all of your baby's needs. They also provide the most comfortable ride for your child, even over rough terrain. Some models come with a large bassinet to enable naps while on the go. The most reliable strollers come with the most recent safety features, including 5-point harnesses. They are a great option for new parents.

Many modern strollers and prams come with adaptors that make it possible to connect a car capsule into the chassis, allowing you to move your sleeping baby from the car to the pushchair without disrupting them. This is an excellent feature for parents who are always on the go, as it lets you complete important errands without having wake your baby or risk removing them from the vehicle. This is best demonstrated by the Doona travel system, a lightweight stroller which can be converted into a carrycot or a group 0+ child seat.

Real prams are silvercross sprung things that Mary Poppins would use when she went on adventures. They're an excellent option for walking around town or traveling to other countries, since they're easy to handle and can hold a huge amount of baggage. They are heavy and difficult to transport, and they can be difficult to squeeze into a trunk of a car or taxi. However, their ease of use and roominess make them ideal for long walks.

The newer 3 in 1 prams come with more modern and sophisticated design. They feature a frame that folds up like an umbrella, and also a portable baby seat or carrycot. These are able to be used from birth and are typically smaller in size than traditional prams, while the carrycot is transformed into an upright seat that will face your child and recline when they're ready. Our choice includes the Kinderkraft Juli, which is a great option that comes with an infant car seat and a carrycot as well as the pushchair.

Accessories

A pramette is a smaller model of the pram. It is perfect for travel on trains that are crowded or in the event that you don't have the space to store a larger stroller. The majority of them convert to pushchairs, so that your baby can sleep flat from birth, and some can also convert into a travel system with the inclusion of a car seat. Some of the brands that carry these include Hauck, Kinderkraft and Venicci.

A 3-in-1 travel package includes a pushchair, carrycot and car seat. This is the most convenient way to travel. Connect the car seat to the pushchair frame and your baby can have a peaceful, relaxing trip from birth. Then, you can change to a stroller when your baby is in the right place, and you'll get a striking modern version of the classic pram style. The Ickle Bubba Juli Travel System bundle is a great illustration of this. It includes a Carrycot, Infant car seat and is suitable from birth.
