Everyday 2-in-1
The 2021 award winner is a large stroller with a budget-friendly price that has everything you need for everyday use. It is easy to move and includes a variety of useful features, including pockets for parents to stow and a sun hood that can be extended and a tray for parents.
It's a great choice for those who wish to purchase an appropriate travel system but don't have a lot of money to spend and it's a good choice for families that are likely to use public transport often. However, if you're a frequent walker, you might want to choose an extra bouncy pushchair that has a lie-flat seat (like the Silver Cross Sleepover or Mamas and Papas Pramette).
Many reviews online praise the stroller's single-hand folding system. The stroller folds effortlessly by turning a lever on the push bar while pushing forward. It also has a mesh peephole which allows air to circulate on hot days, and it can be used to monitor your baby when world-facing.
It's also a very comfortable pushchair for toddlers and features a 5-point safety harness that has an adjustable backrest. The seat is also able to tilt to several positions and the padded footrest adjusts as your child grows taller. The hood is equipped with a removable segment that can be put onto the visor to make a big, wind-proof visor. It also has UV protection of UPF 50+. You can also alter the height of the handlebar using a simple adjustments on the side, although it requires two hands to operate, which is somewhat awkward for smaller hands.
TRAVEL SYSTEM
If you select a 2 in 1 pushchair with car seat, your child will be able to travel safely from birth in a baby car seat that snaps onto the stroller frame. This is perfect for busy families who often use a ride share or taxi service to travel. If you don't intend to travel often or use a stroller that is a standalone unit with an additional car seat may work just as well. Be sure to read the product specs carefully to make sure that your car seat and stroller work with each other.
The majority of 2-in-1 travel systems have a baby car seat and a pushchair. The car seat snaps directly into the frame of the pushchair which means you don't have to wake your sleeping baby to put it in. This is especially useful during the first few months of life, when your baby may be asleep for the majority of the time.
Some models, like the Doona infant base and car seat, offer more convenience. It's a combination of a stroller and a car seat that folds down to make a stroller when removed from the vehicle. The Doona is a fantastic option for families who frequently travel, since it is able to be used in cars and planes with a car-seat carrier.
Other travel systems like the MOOV, VEO and PRIME 2020 offer seats that snap into the pushchair frame. Seat units can be folded into smaller sizes and some come with multiple recline positions to ensure your child is at ease in any position. Some models have an extendable hood that protects your child from wind and sun. You can also add accessories such as a footmuff or shopping bag.
The EVERYDAY is a great option for walking around the city thanks to its aluminum chassis that is lightweight with maintenance-free foam wheels as well as puncture-resistant foam. It's equipped with shock absorption to help you navigate on paved or sidewalk roads, and the front wheels can rotate 360 degrees for more maneuverability. It's ideal to take your child on a stroll in the park or to the local café or supermarket.
STORAGE
Easily store all your baby equipment in the spacious storage basket that is accessible from the front. You'll have plenty of room to store everything you need and shopping. With the one-hand fold you'll be able to move even when your bag is full.
Our stroller comes with a safety bar that is removable from both sides. This makes it much easier to put your child in the pushchair and carrycot (it's also an alternative for our other 2-in-1 models, including MOOV, VEO and PRIME 2020). The bar is finished with eco leather - it is elegant, soft and pleasant to the touch. The set is compact and lightweight which makes it easy to move.
The baby seat in the carrycot has been designed to adapt to the needs of your baby. It can be used in a lie flat position, like a carrycot, or in various recline positions. It features a soft bamboo-fibre mattress, with thermoregulatory and antibacterial properties.
After your baby grows then you can convert the stroller into a traveling system. Click Connect technology allows the car seat to be connected in seconds to the stroller frame. 2 in 1 pushchairs -approved, so you can rest assured that your child is safe.
As your child grows older and more independent, you can use this seat unit with no car seat. It comes with a variety of reclining positions and is designed ergonomically to assist the back. It's perfect for longer walks, so your child can sit up and practice their independence while remaining secure.
Every detail was carefully considered to make your life as simple as you can with your baby. For instance the telescopic handle comes with three levels of adjustment which allows you to choose the ideal position for your needs. It is also covered in a soft eco leather that is pleasant to the touch and is padded. The pushchair comes with a range of useful accessories, including a cup holder and leg warmers that are padded (for the carrycot and also for the pushchair) as well as a breathable rain cover, and a mosquito net.
ACCESSORIES
A travel system is comprised of the car seat, pushchair or carrycot (depending on model). Most models come with a car seat adapter that snaps onto the chassis to secure your baby's I-Size infant car seat. It can be clipped onto the seat component or bonded directly to the chassis without the seat component. If you opt for an e-travel system, ensure that the base and car-seat adaptors are included in the purchase price.
Babies can sleep for up to six months in a comfortable lie-flat carrycot, before swapping to a pushchair. Select a model that can convert from a pramette seat to a pushchair and provides various recline positions to ensure your baby's maximum comfort. Make sure that the seat can be adjusted to face backwards or forwards depending on the age of the child.
Some strollers and cars require a two-step attachment where the straps must be clicked into place and then tightened. This can be more challenging and time-consuming, and can introduce the potential for error. We look for combinations with one-step car-seat attachments that are simple to use - these score highly in our tests.
Smoothness is the key to a smooth ride. We prefer models with rubber wheels and a single wheel on the front that provide quick handling in rough terrains. We prefer models with a single front wheel or that can be driven by one hand. This makes it easier for maneuvering in shops and cafes.
Take note of how the chassis can be folded. This is crucial for travel systems. A simple mechanism is required to lift the folded chassis from and into the car boot. Look for a lock with an automatic feature that helps keep the chassis stable in storage, and a handy strap to help with this. Find a storage bin that is able to hold everything you need for your family, and a cup holder for the parent so that you can drink your own beverage on the go.
