This travel set with three wheels will help you navigate busy city streets and the great outdoors. Featuring a stroller and top-rated car seats and base, this set is ideal for all your adventures!
The following are the main elements to take into account when choosing an all-wheeled travel system: 1. Stroller.
Stroller
A stroller is a car that you can use to transport your child. Travel system strollers blend an ordinary stroller with an attachable car seat. This lets you move your child from the car to the stroller without disturbing them.
Consider visiting the store to test out the stroller travel system before you make your purchase. The stroller should be simple to fold up and down, and easily maneuverable. Make sure the seat reclines without difficulty and the harness is secured. Many new parents are with one hand on an infant sleeping, so you'll want an infant stroller that you can steer with only one hand.
Strollers are made to tackle diverse terrains, and many come with suspension systems that smooth out rough rides. Some models even have locking front wheels that stop the stroller from swiveling, and give you stability when you're jogging. Look for an AS/NZS 2088, specifically the latest version, which eliminates the possibility of an elongated loop between the shoulder and waist straps that could cause the risk of strangulation.
Some strollers have a parent tray that has two cup holders, and a compartment for storing your keys or cell phone. Some strollers feature a huge storage basket that is located at the rear of the seat, which can be used to store extra gear such as diapers or wipes.
The streamlined design of most strollers give them a sporty modern look that can help you turn heads when you walk through the city. Some strollers come in various colors and finishes so you can personalize your look.
Another option is to opt for a 3-wheel stroller over the 4-wheel model. Although they're heavier than traditional strollers, they tend to be more easy to maneuver and can carry more weight. These strollers are also ideal for off road adventures, as they have more durable and tougher tires. They also provide more stability on uneven terrain, and can climb over kerbs without tipping. Hand brakes and wrist straps are mandatory on some 3-wheel models, but are available on others.
Car Seat
A travel system that includes a baby car seat and pram is ideal for a parent who wants the comfort of knowing they can quickly transfer their child from car to stroller. It also appeals to those who aren't looking to invest in a full stroller for a short period of time, for example a toddler who has just learned to walk.
While some car seats slot directly onto the chassis of a pushchair, others require an adaptor. These aren't always included in the price, and may be an additional cost and that's why it's crucial to research before purchasing.
Some brands provide an infant pushchair that has a car seat attached like Jane's eye-catching 4 wheeler. The Jane Matrix Light 2 car seat is the only fully-flat infant carrier available in the world. It also comes with a sensor that detects when your child is sitting or not.
The pram is compact and light, making it easy to maneuver around narrow city streets. The seats that are cushioned provide the best comfort for infants and children. three wheel pushchair come with adjustable footrests to fit the child's size. There are also many optional accessories such as ride-on boards that let older siblings take part in the fun and a hood with built in sunshade and wind protection.
Depending on the exact model the car seat could have premium lower anchor connectors and an anti-rebound bar for added security, an EZ buckle that keeps the buckle forward when unbuckling and buckling the harness, and harness pads as well as a no-rethread harness. Some models may have a rear facing weight limit of 50 pounds, a slim shell and 2 crotch buckle positions, while other features vary by model.
Some car seats are more straightforward than others to install without the base. The Cybex Sirona, for example is easy to install without the base, and scored well in our most recent car seat test in terms of the ease of installation, but it isn't as straightforward as other seats that are highly rated.
