Car Seat Travel Carts , Stroller with Wheels,for Air Travel , Light and Portable

Product Information

Over the years, the Good Housekeeping Institute has tested all sorts of baby equipment from booster car seats to double strollers, always making safety the highest priority. There’s no denying that Doona is safe if used as a car seat and exclusively as a car seat and not a stroller. Shoulder straps should hit at or below the shoulders when a child is rear-facing; when forward-facing the straps should hit at or above the shoulders. Every car seat-stroller combo includes an infant car seat, not a convertible car seat, so your baby needs to be facing the rear of the car. Make sure your car seat fits within the airline’s requirements, and check the bottom of your car seat for red text indicating whether it’s approved for air travel!

Our testers also found that the chest clip on the harness was a bit more difficult to open compared to those on more expensive seats like the Graco Tranzitions 3-in-1. If you’re reading this you probably saw or heard of this “amazing car seat that converts into a stroller”. It’s meant to be used as a car seat, in and out of the car for quick trips, but you shouldn’t be rolling around your baby in Doona for walks or in the city. Looking at the Doona, you can be awed by its innovation, but it is worth remembering it's a car seat, and as such can't use it for more than 2 hours at a time for babies (as it doesn't lie flat) and so, it won't replace a buggy.This course will give you confidence in your ability to travel safely with your car seat-riding kiddos!

The authors of this guide have collectively interviewed 40 industry experts, safety authorities, and physicians. We also relied on the personal experience of Wirecutter staffers, volunteer testers, and car seat techs who had used the car seats in the past.
