Travel system strollers are those strollers that when purchased, come with a car seat or other add on items like the
baby trends stroller features. Travel systems strollers are more expensive than the average stroller, but this keeps you from buying an additional car seat and can be used longer than the average stroller. Travel system baby strollers or baby trends stroller can be found for as little as $125 and as much as $500 depending on the manufacturer and where you purchase from.
Most travel system strollers will come with an infant seat like the twin infant stroller that will hold a baby from 4 pounds up to 25 pounds, and the stroller will hold baby for up to a weight of 50 pounds or an average of 4 years old. This helps you to not have to purchase an additional stroller when baby grows. To choose a travel system baby stroller, it is important to find out if the stroller includes foam for side protection and slippage while the baby is in the stroller.
Many infants slide down in the seat area of the stroller due to not being secured in the area. Supports as well as restraints are very important and should be looked at intensely before purchasing. For example, the Chico Cortina Travel System with Discovery pattern comes with the stroller and the infant car seat. The seat has foam for side impacts, and a removable newborn insert as well as a 5 point harness for safety. The stroller offers a multiple position option, a flat reclining seat and leg supports as well as a removable canopy for comfort. The car seat will fit into the stroller so there is no need to remove 
When looking to buy a travel systems stroller or any type of travel system strollers, you should always check for safety features which twin infant stroller can offer. Safety features would include a locking wheel either in the front or the back of the stroller. This keeps the stroller from rolling away when you are sitting still. There are times when walking with baby that you may be distracted or must stop for some reason, and this is the time that the locking mechanism on the wheel comes into play and is quite useful.
Also, the type of restraint used in the stroller is essential to look at. The safest restraints are the 5 point restraints, as they are good on children from infancy to 4 years or 50 pounds. However there are travel system baby strollers that use only a belt restraint. The belt restraints allow the child to easily remove the belt, but also allow the child to slide down in the seat. There have been many recalls associated with this type of restraint simply because children will slide down in the seat an become tangled or strangled by the restraint when they slide. Other things to look for include a storage area, so that your diaper bag has a storage compartment. This is not essential, but any new mother understands how hard it is to carry a bag, a seat and a stroller.
