Maclaren Easy Traveller

Car Seat Frame

Why Shelly recommends it:

It really is an "easy traveler." In fact, many airlines now allow parents to roll it down the aisle of larger aircraft because it's actually narrow enough to do so and folds compactly enough to store in the overhead bin! One-hand umbrella fold with automatic latch and carrying handle help you negotiate security, deposit your stroller frame on the jetway if needed, or hail your taxi from the curb. You also get Maclaren's ergonomic foam-grip handles, lightweight aluminum frame, and easy one-handed steering, plus a most generous basket for your essentials (larger than rest of the Maclaren baskets). It accommodates most infant carrier car seats, and secures them both by latching to the frame and using a security strap as backup. Folds to 44" long. Weight without car seat is 10.6 lbs.

Compatible with: Britax Companion, Peg Perego Primo Viaggio, Graco Snug Ride, Combi Tyro, Evenflo Discovery, Cosco Designer 22, and Eddie Bauer infant car seats.

Graco SnugRider

Why Shelly recommends it:

Bells and whistles. The Graco Snugrider is not the lightest weight or most compactly folding stroller frame, but with two parent cup holders, a height-adjustable handle, 6" wheels, and a large storage basket, you may prefer it--if you have a Graco SnugRide car seat. (It may also be used with the Graco SafeSeat, but it was designed to work best with the SnugRide). It quickly and securely locks the car seat in place, and folds with one hand with an automatic storage latch. Weight without car seat is 12.5 lbs.

Compatible with: The Graco SnugRide (or Graco Infant SafeSeat).

Baby Trend Snap N Go Double LX

Why Shelly recommends it:

One of a kind. It's not easy traveling with twins--but being able to keep both infants snug and secure in their infant carrier car seats much of the time can definitely help. While there aren't many travel systems that accommodate two infant car seats, the Snap N Go Double stroller frame will, and it accepts most major brands. Also includes a large basket underneath for storage, a parent tray with two cup holders, and a padded foam handle for comfort. Folds with one hand to 20" x 14" x 47.5. Weighs 18 lbs.

Compatible with: Baby Trend Latch Loc, Cosco Designer 22 and 35, Peg Perego Primo Viaggio, Evenflo Cozy Carry, Evenflo Portabout, Evenflo On My Way, Century Vante, and Graco SnugRide and SafeSeat.
