Parents should have a stroller and car seat combination that is easy to use. These systems make it easy to switch between running errands or walking the dog, or going for a jog.

Our testers are impressed by how smoothly and conveniently these travel systems glide whether they have one front wheel or a swiveling front wheel. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Combo as well as the BOB Alterrain pro combo and the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo are all easy to move. However, the BOB Revolutionflex 3.0 Combo and the Baby Jogger City Mini GT 2 Combo can be pushed by one hand.

This model also has a small canopy that some test users find disappointing. On the other hand the Britax Parkway Click and Go Combo is very easy to fold using the pull of a lever and a snap of an button. This model is a great option for parents who wish to use their car seat in the other cars, as it can be easily detached from the base.

It should be easy to unfold and fold the car seat, no matter if you're storing it inside your trunk or a closet. The best combinations we've tested come with an easy, one-handed fold that's compact and strong enough to be used for long walks. They're also easy to maneuver, moving effortlessly over uneven surfaces and bumps. Certain combos are only linked and disengaged by straps. This could feel like a second step and make it more difficult for parents to secure their car seat properly.

Its exclusive SafeCenter LATCH makes it easy to ensure a secure car seat installation by simply connecting the lower anchors, pulling the straps tight and then putting the carrier in the base.
It's also fairly light, making it a great option for frequent travelers or families with multiple vehicles.

It even includes a handy quick-start guide which makes putting this system together an easy task. Other models we tested like the UPPAbaby Minu, UPPAbaby Vista V2 Thule Urban Glide 2 and Baby Trend Snap-N-Go EX Universal were also relatively simple to put together. In contrast the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Combo is difficult to put together as it requires two steps - attaching the lower anchors, and using straps that go over the bottom portion of the carrier. It's also heavy, and it takes two hands to click the carrier into the base and detach it from there.
In our tests, we took just 5 minutes to put together the UPPAbaby Cruz. This is a easy procedure when you take into account the time saved by not having to take out all the individual pieces. Most of these models have an easy process for attaching and detaching the toddler's seat, and.
