Best Stroller Travel Systems

(Car Seat & Stroller Combination)



Are you ready to find out which are the best stroller travel systems on the market today?

A stroller travel system is a convenient way to transport a newborn baby. This combination of a full-size stroller with an infant car seat that clips in and out permits you to transfer your baby between your stroller and vehicle undisturbed.

You may have your heart set on having a stroller travel system, but be aware that some experts consider them to be much too heavy (nearly 30 pounds) due to "feature overload". Also, the lower quality of some of the mass market travel systems may lead you to buy something better and lighter after your baby has outgrown his infant car seat.

Alternatively, you might want to consider purchasing a universal car seat carrier in order to allow yourself more time to research the best stroller to fit your lifestyle. Or you may instead choose to purchase a better quality, lightweight stroller that goes with your infant car seat (you may need to buy a car seat adapter).

Consumer advocates Denise and Alan Fields really don't like recommending stroller travel systems for the above reasons. However, when pressed by parents for some recommendations, here is what they consider the best stroller travel systems of 2009/2010 in their book, Baby Bargains, the best baby product consumer guide that I have encountered in my research for this website.

Where to Find the Best Deals

Although discount stores such as Target and Wal-Mart sell baby strollers for less than the baby specialty stores, the best deals can often be found on the Internet, since they are easy to ship and there's lots of competition.

So, once you've decided which stroller travel system you want to purchase - by doing research on the Internet - go to a store and try it out (if you can), then buy it online for a lot less.

Shipping can be expensive, so see if you can get an online coupon (a special discount) from websites such as EdealsEtc.com or FatWallet.com. The money you save doing this can then be used for something else. Happy shopping!
