I’d stay away from a swivel infant seat and get a swivel convertible when they outgrow the infant seat. The swivel doesn’t really help remove it from the base. But if you’re stuck on it, check out the Cybex Anton g.

Everyone will have slightly different opinions, but this is mine: go to a JL shopping appointment to try out the prams, find out what you like and what's most practical in terms of lightweight, heavy duty etc for the types of places you'll want the pram. Then look out on Facebook marketplace and find one of the ones you liked at a more reasonable price on there. Get a cybex infant carrier car seat and an extended rear facing, Swedish plus tested seat for after that. Aesthetics are way less important than practicality.

Carrier is an absolute must in NY. Any buckle carrier will do, I don’t personally use one but Tula is an all around great carrier brand to start with. Look into baby wearing groups in NYC as well, finding one near me and learning how to use carriers properly has changed my life lol As far as car seats make sure you can use it in both countries and that it is compatible with your stroller! I have the Cybex Aton G and quick google search says they will send a locking clip necessary for use in Europe, i’m sure many brands will have that option as well. I saw the Nuna recommended a bunch if weight is a concern. I just bought the Mompush Velo stroller for travel but i’ve been using it everyday. Make sure any travel stroller you buy has true one hand fold capability, I saw someone mention that on reddit somewhere and noticed that SO many travel strollers require both hands to open and close them.

We had the Nuna Pipa and the Cybex Aton G. WAYYY prefer the Cybex. I think the quality is better. The value is better.

Build quality, fabric quality, baby liked the Cybex better, base was easier to install. The Nuna is a good car seat too! But I personally think the Cybex is superior and the fact it's much cheaper seals the deal for me

I’ve been told the convertible car seats are a pain for newborns. I went with the Cybex Aton G car seat. I’m going to be honest, I bought it because it was white and I have a summer baby so I was worried about black or dark colors overheating. But my baby LOVES this car seat. She instantly stops crying in it and cries when I take her out. It also has an app to remind you to take the baby out after 2 hours has passed (it’s bad for them to be in the car seat too long!), high temperature warning, baby is still in car(I don’t think I need that feature…lol) and the seatbelt is correctly fastened. I wish I got the rotating option because I had a c section, but it’s still really easy with the regular base.

Meillä ollut britaxin istuin, kaksi lasta viihtynyt siinä hyvin. On kyllä aika iso ja raskas vehje. Oli hetken aikaa myös motonetistä hommattu joku Cybexin malli, mutta siinä ei lapset tuntuneet viihtyvän. Se lähti sitten kiertoon ja pienemmälle tuli tuo vanha britax kun isompi muksu tarvitsi isomman istuimen. Tosiaan, käykää liikkeissä koeistuttamassa lasta noihin, ja lukekaa noita autoliiton testejä niin hyvä tulee. Monissa paikoissa myyjät ei kuitenkaan mitään tiedä niin kannattaa pari minuuttia perehtyä tuohon asiaan.

I had one like this for my first baby and immediately regretted it. She didn’t fit in it properly for ages & I had to always get her fully out of it to go into a shop-the amount of times I had to wake her up to do this was so annoying. This time we’ve gone with the cybex cloud and got adapters for our pram. The fit is sooo much better and I don’t have to wake her to nip into a shop!

Congratulations! I'm going through the same decisions as you after many weeks of research, and have just had some success on the stroller and car seat front! Nuna/Cybex were our frontrunners and we liked the elegance of the Silver Cross. We eliminated Uppababy early on for a multitude of reasons. Hopefully this saves you some time: Upon researching car seats, you'll see that the Clek Liing is the most thoroughly safety-tested seat on the market. It's handsome and made in Canada too. However, the price makes it prohibitive for some, and it requires adapters for most strollers. After numerous visits to Snuggle Bugz and West Coast Kids, we learned that the Cybex infant car seats have the same safety rating as the Clek. The Gazelle stroller is very thoughtfully designed and felt sturdier and more equipped for "real life" than the Nuna Mixx. It holds more weight underneath and comes with extra features that other companies sell separately, such as a cup holder and shopping basket. I also appreciate that it stays wheels-down when folded so that you don't end up with slush and salt on the handle and your clothes when loading it into the car through the winter. The car seat clicks in and out as easily as the Nuna ones (which are amazingly simple) so we felt the advantages of the Nuna were all present with the Cybex and then some. Snuggle Bugz had a bundle promo for stroller and car seat, so with the discount, our choice was obvious. Note: the Nuna stroller handle is the best of all - it has no knob or button in the middle which was a huge advantage for both comfort and ease of folding I've heard from many parents that infant car seats get totally filthy, so if you decide to pick one for style, friendly reminder that you're only getting 6 months of use and the "look" may not hold up. You're better off picking a stroller style you like and spending more money on that. Good luck!
