The Silver Cross Wave is a premium set of wheels that can provide this. It is compatible with the car seat or carrycot, and comes with 30 different seating configurations.

The Xplory X may be expensive (around PS845) however it's well worth it due to its unique design that brings your baby closer when you are out and about. The ability to switch the seat from facing the parent to the world also provides your child with a different perspective and helps with their growth and learning.

The seat is weaved smooth canvas and rougher, more durable material on the sides. The same rough material is used for the peek-a-boo. The storage bin is large but it's not able to accommodate our medium diaper bag because of a bar at the opening. The parent console has two cup holders of average depth. The cup holder for children is soft and can accommodate a few bottles for infants and babies with thin sippy cups.
3. Joie Versatrax
The Joie Versatrax is a pram that has been designed with parents and infants in mind. The pushchair is robust in both build and quality and yet it folds up compactly for easy storage, taking less space than traditional prams. This feature is important for those who live in small apartments or homes, as the pushchair will easily fit into the space.
The Versatrax is a flexible 4in1 pram which has been designed to be able to meet your child's ever-changing needs. The pram can be paired with a carry cot or infant copyright to create a deluxe travel system starting at birth. This can be accomplished using the unique adapters that clip on and hold your car seat, or the Joie the ramble xl carry cot (copyright and carry cot sold separately).
The unique aspect of the stroller is that it can rock your baby's seat, ensuring the baby is comfortable.

It also integrates well with the Joie i-Snug 2 car seat to create a complete travel system.
4. Uppababy Vista
The UPPAbaby Vista is one of the top strollers on the market. It has been a cult stroller since its debut in 2006, and is one the most stylish and sturdy strollers. It can be expanded from a single to a double stroller by adding adapters and can also accommodate a third child with the PiggyBack ride along board.
The Vista is easy to put together and fold up, making it a great choice for parents with a short time or who need to get out of the house quickly. It is also simple to use, and provides a comfortable ride for your child. The seat is well cushioned and provides ample head and leg room. The canopy is also large and provides adequate protection from the sun.
Another feature that makes the Vista a great stroller is its capacity to transform into the bassinet. This creates a setting that is cozy and comfortable for babies. The bassinet is able to be attached to the frame of the stroller and can be used on a flat surface or in an upright position.
This stroller can be used with a wide variety of car seats, including the Chicco Keyfit 30, Cybex Aviano Maxi-Cosi. It doesn't come with upper or lower car seat adapters, however these are easily purchased separately for most configurations.
UPPAbaby has made some changes to its Vista model for 2018. The fabric is now more robust and the mattress has been widened to offer better comfort. The canopy is still big, and it has a medium-sized peek-aboo window to provide some shade. The bassinet comes with an extended zippered panel that can be slid over the bassinet to give protection against the sun. The Vista's large basket is another thing that will appeal to a lot of families.
5. Bugaboo Donkey
The Bugaboo Donkey is a premium double stroller that comes with lots of unique features. It is among the most versatile prams available and can be configured in three different ways. It can be used as a side-by-side model with a bassinet, a twin with two seats or a triple that has the comfort wheeled board. It can be used with a range of infant car seats, including those from Chicco Nuna here and Maxi-Cosi.
The Donkey is a stylish chassis with large wheels, a gorgeous fabric and frame. It has a stunning peek-a-boo window in the canopy and a big well-designed basket that has plenty of space. It is easy to push with its telescoping handlebar, which lets you adjust the height. My husband who is 6'1" was able to easily push it.
However the Donkey has some issues. It can be a nuisance when it bumps into doors and is larger than its competitors. The canopy shade can cause discomfort to passengers through rubbing and getting caught on things like handrails. It can be a little difficult to move the seats when reclined. It is a little expensive too.
The latest version, Donkey 5, is even better. The release buttons are now at the front of the bag to allow for an easier fold. It now comes with an Graphite frame (dark gray) that matches beautifully with the new fabric colors as well as sun canopy colors. Additionally, it includes built-in attachment points to the comfort wheeled board as well as a cup holder, eliminating the necessity of adapters. Overall, it is an excellent pram with some issues but has so many other awesome features to outweigh these.
