Graco City Select 2 Car Seat & Stroller Travel Systems came out on top in our tests for ease of assembly. The entire process took less than 30 seconds. We plugged in the included infant car seat and toddler seat, that was then connected to the base using one click. Then we connected the upper adapter and lower adapter to allow for an additional seat (sold separately) or a bassinet. This allows you to create a stroller that grows with your family. It has more than 22 configurations for the seat included and can hold up to 45 lbs for each seat. 
 
UPPAbaby’s Vista v2 Combo also impressed us with its smooth-rolling chassis and springy all-wheel suspension that tackles even the most bumpy roads. However, the combination isn’t cheap, but it comes with a car seat, bassinet and a weather shield to keep your baby at ease. 
 
We also noticed how it was easy for us to move the stroller. The City Mini GT Combo by Baby Jogger features a single wheel on the front that is great for turning corners or moving down narrow aisles. The Thule Urban Glide 2 BOB Alterrain Pro and Baby Jogger City Mini GT Combo have swivel tires to handle tight turns. These wheels were simple to push, even with an infant car seat on the top. We also loved how the frame folded down easily and compactly. 
 
The Doon was the most simple to use. Pushchairs & Prams -hand fold (“awesome that it can be accomplished with an infant on your hip!” says an editor) and compact size makes it a real space saver. The car seat can be removed from the base with one 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. 
 
Easy to Fold 
 
A 2 in 1 car seat stroller combination can be an essential tool in streamlining your routine. If you are a frequent user of public transportation or ride share vehicles, it’s particularly beneficial to be able move your child from the car to the stroller without any hassle. “Look for an option that is easily removed from the base, and can be attached and disengages from the frame of the stroller with only one hand,” Moriarty advises. The Doona Combo is a great example of a stroller and car seat combo that meets these requirements. 
 
This stroller’s unique design allows you to easily transform the infant carrier into an adult seat. It is then possible to change the car seat to accommodate the needs of your child. It’s also designed to be extremely compact and folds up flat which makes it a great choice for travelers. It maneuvered well during our tests and the suspension was outstanding. The seat can be removed with the handlebar in place. 
 
The Doona is not suitable for infants less than 4 months, as it can be detached by one hand only and attached to the stroller. It also doesn’t fold with the infant carrier in place which could be a problem in cramped spaces. Nuna Pipa which does not require an additional base and is a more suitable option for newborns. It also has a strong LATCH connection built into the car seat. 
 
It’s more expensive than the Doona however it has other advantages that make it worth the investment. The Pipa is light and folds into a free-standing position, so it’s easy to carry around. It’s also a bit bigger than the Doona and can accommodate a medium-sized backpack. Its canopy is also impressive, offering a variety of options for adjusting the amount of coverage and ensuring shade. It’s also a great option for international travel, as it can be positioned in the car without the base and is approved for air travel. The only downside is that it won’t fit into the overhead bins on the majority of airplanes.
