There are only two infant car seats on the North American market that recline. The Cybex cloud and the Peg Perego lounge. Both of these work on the veer cruiser, which is on the higher end but folds better than anything. The expedition is also very solid, but the fold is very long.
I don’t know what is meant to be better about the Cybex Cloud T but I have the Cybex Cloud G and am very happy with it. My mum looks after baby once a week and she just puts the car seat in her car with the seatbelt so she doesn’t have another base. I personally think the travel system is not that important. I think I used the car seat on the pram once! It was easier just to transfer baby from the car seat to the bassinet. Or if it’s a short distance then just carry the car seat.
Do you have a mirror? Aside from luck i feel it helps. I use the cybex cloud g which is also super cushy so she loves it since she's usually on a hard bassinet lol
I bought the maxi cosi Romy travel car seat and it was so light. Our cybex infant is way heavier and I wouldn't trust gatechecking. My friend's stroller got damaged when gatechecked. I also got a yoyo for travel during black Friday but I'd pick the joolz dot if i could again
I also managed to snatch a Cybex Cloud G from Amazon at around 630aed (like 50% off) that is compatible with the Yoyo3 with an adapter + works as a car seat for up to 2yo. Makes sense for us because we will need to travel quite often and the cybex is airline approved + the Yoyo3 is cabin approved as well so we can easily travel with the kid. If you still have some time before the due date then keep an eye for discounts and don’t stress much about getting everything straight away. Sometimes we miss out on really good deals and now soon you’ll get Black Friday deals etc.
So we ordered a G but when we came to collect they'd been recalled because of some manufacturing or safety issues, so we were loaned a T for a while. Whilst the T was very good whilst baby was small (she was prem and the T is suitable for prem babies whereas I don't think the G is), when the G came back in stock we swapped it back and omg the G is much lighter, definitely a win as your baby gets heavier. Both seats are compatible with our mamas and papas trav system and they both use the same base so we should still be able to move up to a Sirona afaik.
I've got the cybex cloud G if that fits on your pram then I really like it it's super easy to install and baby really likes it. I also don't find it too heavy and the shade comes down right over baby's face which is good for naps
