Ease of converting from stroller to car seat and back. Wheels are removable and easy to transition.

Okay so I’ve had this car seat now for a few months now and I absolutely LOVE it. We have 5 kids and having this car seat frees up so much space in our car because we don’t have to pack a stroller with us everywhere we go. It comes with a little storage bag and it fits sooo much. It’s so convenient and rolls & turns nicely too. The shade part covers the baby so well, as it extends over his entire body. I don’t have any issues with the wheels tucking in before putting it into the base in the car nor do I have any issues with taking the wheels back out to utilize the car seat as a stroller. It’s pretty straight forward. The only problem I have is that it can get pretty heavy with a growing baby in it. I’m 5’0 exactly and can manage to do it but not without a sweat lol. I like that the handle can be adjusted and sometimes, my 4 year old can even push the baby in it. The plus is that it’s a smart car seat and you can download an app that will alert you if baby has been in the car seat too long and it reminds you that baby is in the car. You can also detach the wheels (which the doona doesn’t do) and attach it to an actual stroller too! Definitely worth the investment.

This has to be my absolute favorite stroller and car seat ever! I’m a first time mom and this has made it so much easier for me. I love how easy it is to install inside your car and the instructions are easy to follow. It is very versatile because you can just take out the car seat or you can pull out the car seat with the stroller. I’m a caesarean mom so this made it easier to just pull out the car and you already have the stroller and car seat. I always get compliments on the stroller/car seat and I always recommend it! Overall, it’s awesome quality and mommy friendly!

I received this car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This all-in-one system is great for quick transitions from the car, into a store, and back again! This system has been a game changer as a mom of 4. Those quick runs into the store with all 4 kids is a high anxiety-inducing activity for us. Wrestling with a bulky car seat system and managing the older kids, often requires more hands than I physically have. The Shyft Dualride has eliminated the need for those extra hands, as it takes just seconds to unload baby and transform the car seat into a stroller. It’s just as quick as getting the other kids out of the car. I no longer have to get everyone out, make them stand by the door, unload baby, drag the stroller out of the back, and then get everyone situated to cross the parking lot. The ease of this transition that the Shyft Dualride offers is one of the best, and biggest, safety features in my eyes! The attachable carry-all bag that attaches to the bottom makes the system diverse enough to be able to take it almost anywhere. The attachable cup holder is also nice, and without it, this system wouldn’t be very practicable. I wish there was a parent console, but the attachable bag and cup holder make up for it. The install of the base was a breeze. There are instructions on the base with an easy-to-see level to make sure you’re installing correctly. It took me several tries to get proficient with collapsing the stroller down to the car seat, and the same for expanding it to the stroller. There is a level of finesse needed, but it is easy to pick up on. Getting the car seat in and out of the base is simple, it has been a nonissue from day one. The safety features of the car seat itself are impressive. The sensor safety clip is sturdy, and doesn’t feel like it’s made of cheap plastic. I also really love the black clip connected to the head-side of the car seat, which I’ve found helpful when needing an additional bag to be carried. The canopy is thin, being somewhat see-through, but when out in public, I just throw a little blanket over top to block weather/nosy people! Overall a great system! Simplifies the everyday routines! The only con is that the car seat is a little bulky, so if for some reason you would need to carry the car seat, that would become easily cumbersome for any amount of time.

The Shyft DualRide with Carryall Storage Infant Car Seat and Stroller Combo is a great car seat and stroller combination for parents who love techy baby products and don't have a budget. The functionality of this product is great. You simply take the car seat out and prop open the wheels and now you have a stroller. It's a very convenient and functional baby product. The car seat stroller combo is quite easy to use, once you learn where all the buttons are. It took me a few moments to figure out exactly how to use it, but once I did, it was very easy and quick. Transitioning from a car seat to a stroller is quite simple, again, once you figure out exactly how to do it. Installation is pretty simple, too. The SensorSafe chest clip is a feature that I had not heard of before on a car seat. While I don't think it's super necessary, it's another feature that other tech-savvy parents might love. Something I found interesting about the SensorSafe chest clip is that the app will notify you if you leave the baby in the car seat. That might be a nice feature for busy parents. What surprised me the most about this car seat stroller is how smooth the stroller is! The ride is SO nice and amazing to stroll my baby around. I was expecting a rough ride, but this stroller is seriously SO nice and smooth. Another big pro of this car seat stroller is that the seat can accommodate babies up to 35 lbs if you take the infant inserts out. It's so great that this car seat stroller can grow with my baby! My oldest child grew out of her infant car seat before she turned 1, so I am looking forward to having this car seat accommodate my second child for much longer. The 35 lb weight limit is probably my favorite feature of this product! The cons of this product would be that it is a bit heavy, but most infant car seats are. Another con is the price, but this is a very top-of-the-line product that your baby can use for a while. Overall, I'd highly recommend this product if you have the money to spend! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat.

The evenflo shyft dualride is a seriously awesome car seat. Where was something like this with my first three kids? We’ve used car seat and stroller systems where they click together and I thought those were easy. This car seat takes ease to a whole new level. I love that I don’t have to use up my precious trunk space on a stroller and instead it is just all right there attached to my carseat. There was a bit of a learning curve in figuring out how to transition between carseat and stroller, but after a few days, it is now easy and I don’t have to think twice. I was a bit worried about my car getting dirty from dirty wheels after using it as a stroller, but the wheels go in a little plastic area that protects my car seats. Yay! Overall it was really easy to install and to use. I loved the smart seat belt, it is reassuring to have it monitoring my little one. I think one of my favorite things about this carseat is that the push handle bar actually extends long enough that I don’t feel like I’m hunched over to push this carseat as a stroller. I’ve seen other car seat brands where the handle was so low that it looked awkward and uncomfortable to push. I was worried this one would be the same, but it’s not. I also love that this car seat is safe for preemies. My little one was born 5 weeks early and is tiny. I feel safe having him in this carseat and it’s great that this can fit a baby as small as 3 lbs., but then goes all the way up to 35 lbs. I love the versatility. That’s hard to find in a good carseat. Thanks so much to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting me try out this car seat and stroller combo.
