Choosing a Pushchair Travel System

Choosing the perfect pushchair for your family is among the most important decisions you'll have to make as a parent. There are a lot of aspects to be aware of, whether you opt for an all-in-one travel package for its convenience and cost savings or a separate frame and compatible car seats to ensure maximum flexibility.

Fortunately, this guide will help you make the best decision to meet your needs and lifestyle.

What is a travel system?

A travel system is a pushchair that can take a baby car seat and some carry the option of a carrycot too. New parents will love this option because they can easily transfer their sleeping baby from their car into the pushchair.

A quality travel system will fit snuggly in your car and connect to the frame of your pushchair to ensure a smooth journey for your baby. It's a good choice since you'll only need to make one major purchase to celebrate the arrival of your baby. It also helps you save money.

There are a variety of travel systems available with options ranging from budget-friendly choices to premium brand names such as TYPO or JANE. There are a variety of travel systems that include accessories for your car seat that match, changing bags and matching mats for changing. If you're looking to make life easier by purchasing an entire travel system that includes everything you need. This is the most efficient way to make sure all parts work together. No more searching online for a car seat that works and then figuring out that you need adapters too!

What are the recline options for seats? options?

If you opt for an option that includes a carrycot, then make sure the pushchair seat also fully reclines to ensure your baby is comfortable to sleep and is at the recommended lying flat position for spinal and respiratory development. Consider whether the handlebar can be adjusted to ensure it is comfortable for you, your partner or anyone else who uses it frequently.

Most pushchairs that are "from birth" include a reversible seat to allow you to choose which position your child is facing towards you (to increase their communication skills) or world-facing, to encourage their curiosity and allow them to see where they are going. Some travel systems have a reversible seating unit that attaches directly to the frame of the pushchair without needing to remove it. This allows you to effortlessly transfer your baby from the car into the stroller, and reverse the process.

Check that the car seat you select is compatible with your pushchair, as not all infant car seats can be attached to all pushchairs, without adaptors. Some travel systems come with all the adaptors that you require included in the box, while others may require them to be purchased separately. You can determine if this is the case by checking the product details or asking at your local retailer.

How do you get it done?

Carrycots are lightweight and easy to attach, but they should be used for babies that are less than 6 months old. They should be used in conjunction with a lie-flat pushchair so that the baby can be in a fully reclined position which is ideal for their spine and lung development. Carrycots can be easily attached and are light. They're best for newborns less than 6 months old and should be used with a lie flat pushchair. This allows the baby to sit in a fully reclining position which is good for their spine development and lung development.

It's important to note that the majority of the brands have designed them to work together. This means you can be confident that they'll all function well and fit together. Buying all your items together can be a great idea and is almost always cheaper than buying the items separately. Being able to move your sleeping newborn from car seat to a stroller for a nursery or to go to pram shops near me without disrupting them is a huge plus. We believe that travel systems are definitely worth the money.

How do I connect a carrycot or car seat?

The majority of pushchairs that are 'from birth' can be linked to a compatible baby car seat or carrycot for simple transitions from your car to the street. This is great for infants as it allows them to rest in the recommended lie-flat position.

When the baby is outgrowing their infant car seat (usually up to the age of 18 months) the majority of travel systems can be used with a stroller seat which means that they'll last longer as your child grows. Many travel systems are sold with an additional stroller seat, however certain models, such as the Doona and the Evenflo Shyft DualRide, have one piece design, which means that the car seat folds up into a pushchair, and then back again to fit into the base of your vehicle.

If you choose to use a carrycot or car seat on your pushchair, be sure you read the instructions and observe the weight, age and size restrictions. Check whether the car seat or pushchair have been recalled due to safety reasons.

Many pushchairs come with accessories that can enhance your experience. For example, a footmuff will protect your baby against the elements while a sun shade made of SPF/UPF50+ fabric keeps them sheltered from the sun. Some also feature a ride-on board, perfect for toddlers who are ready to conquer the world themselves but need assistance.

What is the weight limit?

A pushchair is generally designed to fit babies until a certain weight and age. It will differ based on the car seat and pushchair combo you select as well as your own needs, so it's important to check these specifications thoroughly. Similar applies to the brakes of your chosen model, it's important that you make sure they're strong and easy to operate.

Many brands offer infant seat adaptors as part of their travel system packages. This allows you to simply clip the car seat of your child onto the frame of the stroller. This makes a stroller ride with a baby much more convenient. It also ensures that once your baby is no longer in their car seat and carrycot they can use the stroller along with you. This is a great option for families with busy lives and a lot to do every day.

How easy is it to fold?

There are a range of fold styles available on pushchairs - some are actually one-handed with a simple press of one button. Some folds require two hands or a couple of steps, but they are still extremely compact. Some models even stay standing when folded, which makes it easy to carry around. This sort of design is perfect for those who live in the city or commute regularly and need to make the transition from car to pushchair a seamless process or if you have a small boot and need a model that folds up to fit into it.

Some travel system pushchairs, dependent on the model, can be used as early as the birth of a child by adding a car seat or carrycot. Those that can are often accepted to be used in the cabin of flights and are perfect for parents that like to travel a lot as a family.

If you opt for the car seat and double pram pushchair bundle, it's the most cost-effective option to purchase. The bundle is typically created by the manufacturer and consists of a car seat that are specifically designed to work together. Additionally, some pushchairs say which car seats they're compatible with, and you can then purchase a seat separately (though this might require car seat adaptors). MFM Editor Gemma's pick for the best lightweight travel system is the Babyzen YOYO because of its innovative features and a stunning one-second fold.

What is it like?

A travel system bundle is a great way to buy a pushchair and car seat together and also enjoy the benefits of convenience, reassurance and, often, a cost savings. These bundles are assembled by retailers or brands. All the parts are selected by hand for their compatibility. This means you don't have to spend time researching what car seat is compatible with your dream pushchair or searching for a footmuff that matches or changing bags.

They are typically made up of a frame that can fit into a car seat group 0+ and includes the carrycot, or seat unit, which can be used either facing forward or facing the parent depending on your preference or regulations (rear-facing is recommended for cars until 15 months). Some can even be converted into twins/tandems when you're expecting more than one baby.

A travel system can be really practical if you're likely to be doing a lot of walking and driving with your child since it lets you transfer them from the car to pushchair and back again without disturbing them or having to find a safe spot to park. They also can save space in your car's boot, making it easier to go shopping or run the school run.
