I actually do think you need two lol! We have the uppa baby which is great for snow, the basket is soo huge so Great for jackets bags everything honestly. But it’s way too heavy to travel with so I have the maxi cosi lata for that! It’s great but I really missed the basket size and smoothness of the uppa baby when I was travelling but knew it would be impossible to take with me

Our Maxi Cosi travel system is wonderful. There are a few different style options but they all have the same stroller with bassinet that converts to a seat for bigger kids & todlers, and attachments for carseat. Highly recommend.

We had a maxi Cosi travel system that I got from John Pye for £170, came with an isize car seat that was compatible with the same bases as the Pearl 360. Used it for around 7.5 months then sold it for £120 as our needs had changed ☺️ I don’t regret not splashing big money on a swanky one at all. My son was comfortable in the bassinet and it did what I needed it to do!

Thank you so much! That’s my second baby and I saw it at target and loved how smooth and light it is. I was thinking about the ginger, but I know if I got the ginger I will get another travel stroller in 1 year. So, why not get the nutmeg travel system from the beginning. My first I got maxi cosi travel system that was so bumpy and we hated it.

I think the maxi cosi came with the whole shabang and the main seat turned into a bassinet.  I got the uppababy vista, borrowed an old uppababy bassinet (still fits fine) and use a clek liing car seat with adaptors.

We didnt have a budget cap, went in and tried everything, ended up liking the maxi cosi travel system way more. Important caveats: we didnt need our stroller to convert to a double, we didnt need the safe sleep bassinet, and we wanted a travel system, not just stroller.

Also FWIW we ended up going with the maxi-cosi travel system which unintentionally was the cheapest! I was totally expecting to want the Clek Liing + Uppa baby, but weight, size, and other factors made the decision for me

Go to a baby store and try them! We would have been fine to pay more for a more high-end unit if we really liked it, but we ended up like the Maxi-cosi travel system best AND it was the cheapest option. Important to know what care about first too. Eg. A big advantage of the uppababy is the 2-kid conversion whereas we are expecting to be 1 and done.
