  "question": "Which stroller bassinets or carry cots work with a parent-facing seat?",
  "answer": "Mountain Buggy Carrycot Plus for Duet: One base plus two fabric sets gives three parent-facing options: lie-flat carrycot, inclined carrycot, and parent-facing seat. The maker gives the maximum seat capacity as 9 kg in lie-flat or incline mode and 15 kg as a parent-facing seat.\nMountain Buggy Carrycot Plus: One base and two fabric sets give three parent-facing modes: lie-flat carrycot, inclined carrycot and parent-facing seat. The store listing states the parent-facing seat holds up to 33lbs (15kg).\nJoolz Aer² Nest to Seat: The retailer blog reports that the Nest to Seat gives a compact stroller a parent-facing seat, attaches easily to the Aer² chassis, and stays cabin-approved with the nest attached. The video says the parent-facing seat works longer than the bassinet and notes its five-point harness and apron.\nValco Baby Snap Duo Trend Bassinet: The brand explains that the Trend Duo seats are forward-facing only, and that adding the bassinet is how a newborn rides parent-facing in the early months. Sources disagree on compatibility: the maker's current listing says Trend Duo and Trend Duo Sport SE, while its older ProductReview answer says Trend Duo only.",
