A 2 in 1 travel system pram in 1 Carrycot and Pushchair Review
A 2-in-1 pushchair and carrycot combines a baby carrycot and seat unit in one single unit. This means that you can switch between the two with ease as your child grows.
It is generally accepted that babies should be placed in a carrycot up until they start rolling over, which usually happens at about six months.
The Icklebubba Eclipse
The British brand Ickle Bubba is a name that has been popular in by the UK by storm since their debut in 2013. They have prams that come with a variety of features for a reasonable price. They also offer a fantastic warranty of 4 years that is much longer than the standard time offered by other pram makers!
The Eclipse is one of their most well-known models and it's easy to see why. It's a 2-in-1 pushchair and pram stroller 2 in 1 that is suitable from birth to 22kg (approx. 4 years). It has six modes of operation and includes a Bubba Board in the rear for children who can stand on their own up to 20kg.
A sleek chrome chassis with rear and front suspension makes this a great pram for long-distance trips with the 360-degree lockable swivel wheels make it easy to manoeuvre on narrow city streets. The seat can be swiveled and gives parents or world-facing options as well as reclines for the ultimate comfort. In addition, there's a huge shopping basket as well as a comfortable foot muff.
This 2 in 1 pram includes a raincover colour co-ordinating changing bag and mat, carrycot apron and mattress, and an extendable hood that helps keep your baby safe from the elements. There's also a bumper bar and soft tan leather handlebar. The Eclipse is also made in Britain as is the case with all Icklebubba products!
As well as great value, Ickle Bubba pride themselves on excellent customer service and a fast delivery time. Their website is a pleasure to navigate and the staff are extremely helpful, so you can be sure you're in good hands.
The Eclipse is available in a bundle that includes either the Group 0+ Galaxy or the top-of-the-line i-size Mercury. There's also a pushchair and car seat bundle, and both versions come with the footmuff, raincover, and matching changing bag and mat. And, as always, if you're not happy with the purchase, Ickle Bubba will give you a full refund. This is a great deal!
The carrycot
The carrycot is a safe, comfortable and secure environment for infants. It aids infants in developing in a healthy manner, as lying flat is essential for the development of the lungs and spine and is much more secure than a child sleeping upright in the pram seat or Moses basket.
Carrycots can be carried wherever, so you aren't obligated to disrupt your baby as they are sleeping. This is great if you have to complete an run or do not have a babysitter, or just want to enjoy some fresh air and a nice walk. A carrycot is a great option to save money and time, as you don't have to employ a babysitter.
When choosing a carrycot, select one that has a sturdy frame designed for easy mobility and that can fold easily. It should also be lightweight so that it can be easily stored and transported, and come with a canopy that provides protection from the sun. Also, it is important to choose a carrycot that is made from high-quality materials and fillings that are flame-resistant to ensure the safety of your baby.
A carrycot of good quality will have a soft mattress that is filled with polyurethane for maximum comfort and support. There are models with adjustable base levels that will allow for the growth of your baby and offer the best comfort.
A good quality carrycot should also come with handles that can be connected or single to make maneuvering more convenient. This is particularly useful if you have different family members using the pushchair as it lets everyone use the stroller 2 in 1 comfortably.
Lastly, look for a carrycot that includes the footmuff. It is an essential item for any parent, as it provides your child with warmth and protection from the elements. A high-quality footmuff will include a soft and comfortable lining, and it must be made of fabrics that are water-resistant to keep your baby dry and warm. In addition, the top footmuffs will also be compatible with your carrycot, and include 5-point harnesses.
The seat unit
The seat unit is component of a 2-in-1 travel system that transforms from a carrycot to an infant pushchair when your baby is ready to sit. It will usually have recline features and two “facing directions” either facing the parent or the rear, or even world-facing. It should be large, comfy for your child, include sunshade, a canopy and be easy to put on and off the pushchair frame.
You can purchase a pushchair and pushchair either separately or as a complete bundle. Bundles can help you save time and money as you can start with a carrycot and then switch it to an infant pushchair seat once your baby is six months old or is able to sit up on their own without assistance. Most travel systems come with adaptors for car seats that allow you to connect the infant car seat and the pushchair chassis. This lets you easily move your sleeping baby from the car to the pushchair.
When buying a carrycot for your baby, pick one that is comfortable and has breath-ability fabrics. This will help keep them cool and comfortable. Some models are designed with ventilation, sun protection, and a soft mattress, so your baby can sleep soundly.
If you are planning to use your carrycot from birth, choose one that allows for parental facing as this will help you to monitor your child. You'll be able to monitor them quickly and comfort them in the early years. Many parents have found that it helps with bonding when their little one is able to see them.
Once your baby is ready for the transition from their carrycot into the pushchair seat, they'll require an incredibly comfortable and supportive seat with plenty of padding, good back support, and a five-point safety harness. Check if the pushchair has a reversible footmuff or seat liner that is extremely soft and waterproof. It can also be attached to the pushchair during colder weather.
Look for a stroller rocker 2 In 1 with a large basket that is accessible from the seat. It should also have several pockets to store your shopping. Consider the option of a changing bag to help you stay well-organized on your trips. You can purchase a coordinating changing bag from most brands or opt for bags or a backpack that fits neatly on the frame of your stroller.
The footmuff
A footmuff can be a great way to keep your baby warm and cozy when they are out and about during cold winter days. The footmuff wraps around the lower body of your baby to keep it warm and toasty. It also comes with easy strap openings that allow you can still put it to your stroller or vehicle seat. Some footmuffs are designed to fit specific strollers or car seats. This is great for keeping your baby warm without worrying about overheating.
Many parents opt to utilize a footmuff instead blankets or layers to avoid overheating their child and is particularly helpful when out on windy or rainy days. The Najell Universal Footmuff is a ideal choice and comes with a luxurious padding that keeps your baby warm and comfortable. It is also machine washable and you can keep it clean. It can be used with all pushchairs and is a useful accessory.
The Hauck Soft 2in1 Carrycot can also be used as a footmuff by taking off the handles, head part and lateral parts. This makes it a great choice for babies who don't like being covered while out and out and about. This will save space in the nursery since you only have one item that you can use from birth until toddlerhood. If you'd like to make sure you're organized there's an pacifier pouch included so that you can always find the baby's favorite.

The spacious carrycot creates a safe environment, while the sturdy chassis and adjustable canopy provide protection from the elements so you can take pleasure in your outdoor adventures with peace of mind.
