What are the different options for reclined seats?

If you decide to go with a travel system that includes a carrycot, make sure the pushchair seat also fully reclines to ensure your baby is comfortable to sleep and is at the recommended lie-flat position for respiratory and spinal development. Consider whether the handlebar can be adjusted in height to make it comfortable for you, your partner or anyone else who uses it often.

Most 'from-birth' pushchairs come with a reversible seat so you can choose which direction your child will face, the parent (to help develop communication skills) or the world, to stimulate curiosity and inform them of where they're going. Some travel systems also come with a reversible car seat that attaches directly to the frame of the pushchair, without taking it off it, so that you can easily move your child from the car to the stroller and back again.

Not all infant car seats are compatible with all pushchairs. Some travel systems include all the adaptors you need included in the box. Others may require you purchase the adaptors separately. You can determine if this is the case by looking up the product's specifications or contacting your local retailer.

How do you get it done?

If you're looking for a transport system to transport your baby from car to pushchair and back again, make sure the pushchair's chassis isn't too heavy and that you have room in your trunk to accommodate a carrycot. Carrycots are lightweight and easy to attach but they're best used with infants that are less than 6 months old and should always be used in conjunction with a lying pushchair to allow the baby to be in a fully reclined position. This is great for their lung and spine development.

It's important to remember that the majority of brands have designed them to work together. You can be certain that everything will fit and perform as intended. Shopping in one place is convenient and almost always is less expensive than buying items separately. Also, being able to move your sleeping baby from the car seat to a stroller for the nursery or to go to shops without disrupting them is a major benefit. This is why we believe that it's worth the money.

How easy is it attaching a car seat or carrycot?

The majority of pushchairs 'from birth' can be linked to a compatible baby car seat or carrycot to allow simple transitions from your car to the street. This is ideal for newborns, allowing them to sleep in the position recommended for them to sleep.

Most travel systems are sold with a separate stroller seat. However, some, like the Doona and Evenflo Shyft DualRide, have one-piece designs so that the car seat folds into a pushchair. The majority of travel systems come with an additional stroller, however some, such as the Doona or the Evenflo Shyft DualRide have a single piece design that allows the car seat to fold into a pushchair, then folded back into the base of the vehicle.

If you decide to use a car seat or carrycot on your pushchair, be certain to read the instructions of the manufacturer carefully and follow their age, weight and size limitations. Also, make sure to determine if the pushchair and car seat has been removed as part of an recall for safety.

Many pushchairs come with accessories to make your experience more enjoyable. For example, a footmuff will protect your child from the elements while a sun shade made of SPF/UPF50+ fabric will keep them sheltered from the sun. Some pushchairs include a ride-on board designed for toddlers who are eager to explore the world but need a little help.

What is the weight limit?

A pushchair travel system is usually designed to be able to accommodate infants up to a maximum weight and age. It's dependent on the car seat/pushchair combination that you select and your lifestyle. So it's important to check these specifications thoroughly. It's also important that you check the brakes of your chosen model. They must be durable and easy-to-operate.

Many brands include adaptors for infant carseats in their travel system packages enabling you to easily attach your baby's car seat onto the frame of your pushchair to allow them to be easily moved from car to stroller. This makes the entire process of exploring the world with a newborn much easier and easier. This ensures that your baby will be able to use their stroller once they have outgrown the car seat and carrycot. This is an excellent option for families that have hectic lives and plenty to do each day.

How do you make it easy for you to fold?

There are a range of folds available for pushchairs. Some are completely one-handed, with just a click of a button. Some folds require two hands or a few steps, but they are still extremely compact strollers. Some models are able to stand upright when folded, making it simple to hold. This sort of design is perfect if you live in the city or Double Pushchair commute regularly and wish to make the transition from car to pushchair an effortless process or in the case that you have a tiny boot and need a model that folds really small to fit into it.

Some travel system pushchairs depending on the model can be used from birth by adding an infant car seat or carrycot. They are usually approved to be taken in the cabin on flights and are perfect for parents who do lots of travelling as a family.

The most cost-effective choice is to purchase an automobile seat that is paired with a pushchair. The bundle is designed by the brand and consists of two car seats and a pushchair designed to work together. Some pushchairs list the car seats that they are compatible with and you can buy the car seat separately. (This may require car seat converters.)

What do you think it looks like?

A travel system bundle is a great option to purchase a pushchair and car seat in one go and also enjoy the benefits of convenience, reassurance and, often, a cost savings. These bundles are put together by brands or retailers. All the parts are carefully selected for compatibility. This means you won't need to do a lot of research on which car seat will work with your ideal pushchair, or search on the internet for a compatible footmuff or changing bags.

These pushchairs are generally composed of a frame that fits into a car seat group 0+, and also includes a carrycot, or seat unit, that can be used either forward-facing or facing the parent based on your preference and the rules (rear-facing is recommended in cars until 15 months). Some can even be transformed into a tandem or twin if you are expecting more than one child.

If you are planning to spend a lot of time driving and walking, a travel system is a great option. You can easily transfer your child from the car to the pushchair and vice versa without having to disrupt them or find a secure parking place. They can also save space in the boot of your car, making it easier to get to shops or go on a school run.
