Customer Reviews:

• Good choice!
  This is a very nice carrier I bought with the matching stroller. It works very nice together. Only thing is, since it's dark it heats up pretty good. My daughter's head gets sweaty easily if sitting in it too long....more info
• Safety is key
  My wife and I ordered this car seat because of its outstanding safety rating. This seat is light weight and easy to install. The seat has a wide range for adjusting the tilt in order to make sure that the seat is at the correct angle....more info
• Can't get an extra base
  My husband and I debated long and hard between the Safe Seat and the Graco Snugride. We ended up picking the Safe Seat because of its versatility (it could handle babies 5-30 pounds rather than 5-22, and up to 32 inches long rather than 29), its safety (one comparison website said that the Safe Seat had Side Impact Protection and the Snugride didn't), and its reviews.
  
  However, if we had known what a headache it would be to get an extra base for the seat (to put in our other car, as has been recommended by friends and other reviewers), we would have gone with the Snugride.
  Amazon does not carry Safe Seat bases.
  We ordered a base through Toys R Us only to have them tell us (three weeks after we ordered) that our order was canceled because they were unable to complete it.
  Then we ordered a base through Comfortfirst, and found out shortly after our order that "the product is currently on backorder."
  Most recently, we ordered one through CountryLiving Store but the order hasn't shipped yet.
  Each time we've ordered a base, the company has said they had them in stock; and each time the base plus shipping has been expensive (over $50).
  
  It makes us wonder if Graco has discontinued making the Safe Seat and/or the bases for it, or if demand has outpaced supply....more info
• Easily to a year
  I was really glad we spent the extra money to buy the seat and stroller separately. We got a great seat with this one and a great stroller in the Mosaic stroller. Our little boy (who is usually above the 50th percentile in EVERY category) was easily able to use this seat until after his first birthday. I was so glad we bought this one when I saw friend paying a lot more for larger carseat. We never needed the expensive seats that face backwards - he was ready to face forward as soon as he was too big for this one! ...more info
• great seat
  This is a great infant seat. My daughter is currently 17 months 22 pounds and 31 inches and we are just now starting to research her next step car seat. The seat fit very well in my old Jetta, my husband's 2 door Honda and my current Saturn vue. We've also used it in my mom's ford, MIL mini van and GPIL old truck as well as various rental cars while on vacation. Only my husband has a hard time getting it in and out of the car, but it is a 2 door, so I don't know that a smaller seat would make that any easier. We use LATCH with a base on my and my husbands car, and just the lap belt with no base on all the other cars we have used. It's easy enough to strap in using the seat belt, though I feel that straight lap belts seen to give a better fit than those with a shoulder strap. This seat will fit onto any Graco stroller, as well as lots of other brands of strollers to make an impromptu travel system, so just test it out in the store and you will probably find one that fits. The material is easy enough to wash, though my daughter seems to get a sweaty head pretty quickly in the summer. The harness is easy to snap together and adjust, as are the shoulder belts. I only had to move the shoulder belt height 1 time and that was quite easy to accomplish. She actually isn't even on the highest setting yet, but I'm ready to get her into a convertable booster even though she hasn't technically outgrown the seat yet, she's close enough, plus she has long legs and they're strting to get to the point that she has to bend them against the seat back so I want to get her into a bigger seat. Overall, I think this would work for most babies up to and past their 1st birthday. We've gotten 17 great months worth of use out of it, and we're able to skip the purchase of a convertable seat because she doesn't have to sit backwards anymore. ...more info
• kept safe with this seat in an accident
  I highly recommend the Graco Safeseat as it kept my (at the time) 11-week old son safe and undamaged when our little family was in a recent car accident. We were hit by a truck that slid through a red light and spun us, and then the forse drove us into a tree. I had the Graco Soho Safeseat when the accident occurred. We replaced the Soho with the Ionic after the accident- of the same Graco line. My son was crying and screaming- but he was uninjured and I feel safest now sticking with Graco....more info
• Great Carseat
  This is a great car seat. I recently bought this one, it is cute for a boy or girl.
  
  Travel. I took my child in a plane for travel I used the Graco car seat bag for the valet check, it worked great. I did not take the base with us and it fit safe and secure in the car using the seat belt. It was a little tricky since the belt strap has to go over the car seat, it was easy with two people one on each side it took less then a minute to secure.
  
  I also bought the Graco SnugRider Infant Car Seat Stroller Frame. They work great together. Just a couple problems. 1. If you put coffee in the cup holder and go over a bump it could spill on your child. 2. If you have a diaper bag you want to put on the bottom of the stroller, put it in before you put attach the car seat. Otherwise then that, it is fast to open and to travel with.
  
  
  Note about the base, it is easy to adjust. However, if you have a car with leather seats it is difficult to secure the base. With the use of a non slip rug mat between the seat and base along with a cut up noodle (yes the ones you use in the pool) it was secure. I learned this trick from a fireman who installed the car seat for my 2 year old.
  
  Working with a double stroller by BOB. I also recently bought a Bob Revolution stroller with car seat attachment. Some of the other carseats that work with the BOB stroller requires the back of the stroller to be adusted down (this would mean that everytime you open the stroller it would have be adjusted). I did not have to do this for this carseat, just pop it in and attach the strap and go.
  
  I am very pleased with my purchase.

• The Cadilac of all graco infant seats
  The best graco infant seat yet. The handle is so easy to grip and carry. The seat it self is nice and stylish, and comfy. The harness straps do not tangle up or get twisted like some other brand seats do. The 2 piece chest clip is nice. This seat is a little heavier than a regular graco snugseat. But the height and weight limits go farther and ensure a safer baby. Super easy to get into my mercury sable, even wothout the latch. There are plenty of comfort options with this seat, to keep baby nice and snug and warm. We would definatly buy another one in a heartbeat....more info
• Great seat!
  We purchased this seat because we needed to replace an expired hand-me-down. The roomier size appealed to us, as our daughter is in the 90th percentile for height at 5 months of age. I have one minor complaint- I have trouble getting the clip across her chest undone at times. You need to really squeeze the plastic to get it to budge- a bit of a pain if you have a fussy baby. Otherwise, the seat is easy to use and she seems quite comfortable....more info
• Very Happy
  I love my new car seat. This is the third infant carrier I've owned and it is by far my favorite. Things I love about it - easy to adjust strap tightness, fits infants to 30 lbs., seems comfortable to infant, easy to clean fabric, light color to reflect light, infants head doesn't flop when sleeping, comfortable handle, easy to put into and get out of car, carseat base secures into car well, great price for quality, can be used with our old double graco stroller although it fits very tight. Things to consider - it is bigger than other carseats (but it still fits in our Camery with backless booster seat on each side, it was difficult to buckle in a newborn since the chest buckle is so big. I don't think it's too heavy or big to carry around. I'm very happy with the quality of the safe seat....more info
• Wonderful Infant Car Seat
  We have used different car seats in the past from Chicco to Graco Snug Ride. We have an older car that does not have the "latch" system. We love how easy the Graco Safe Seat was to install using the seat belt. It fits perfectly in our car and there is not room for movement. We love the Rittenhouse pattern! Great modern design and perfect colors for a boy or girl! ...more info
• Wonderful Infant Seat for many reasons
  After much research on-line, I went to the store to see for myself before settling on new seat for baby number four. The Graco Safe Seat was by far the nicest seat there. It has wonderful padding which by far exceeded any other seat, you can tighten or loosen the seat belt by pulling a strap or pushing a button on the front of the seat, the carry handle moves very easily without any chance of it moving by mistake, the seat snaps into and out of the base beautifully, and don't be fooled - all infant seats weigh about the same and yes they all feel heavy when you add a baby's weight to them. You do have to change the position of the shoulder straps from the back, but I can tell you from experience that you will need to take it apart to clean it more often then you will have to worry about moving the shoulder straps so it is no big deal. And, knowing that there is pretty much zero chance my baby will outgrow this seat before I am ready to move her to a forward facing seat means I won't have to buy a convertible seat. Also, the seat belt latch is of much better quality then some of the other seats I looked at and it works very easily....more info
• One of the best purchases ever!
  
  This is one of my best purchases ever. This car-seat is not much heavier than Chico or any other brands. I have been managing carrying it with a baby pretty well (I am 5'5", 120 lbs lady). It has a side protection, head support, very convenient adjustable harness (they are not twisting, easy locking/unlocking, has three steps to adjust for different age...). I would like my baby to stay in an infant car-seat as long as it is possible, I would like to hold off dealing with convertible car-seats as long as it is possible. My baby is 1 year 2 months, he weights 26 lbs (pretty big boy) - but he still fits this car-seat perfectly. He likes it very much! We have already purchased a convertible RECARO Signo, but do not rush to install it into the car. I love this Graco Safe Seat as I can grab my little one being in the car-seat and place into a shopping cart for just one sec. I love it b/c of three different ways to install it - latch system, belt with base or belt without base. I prefer to use the base - one click and you are ready to go! At the same time if it turns that my husband or nanny has to pick up the child, I don't need to worry about a car-seat. They can use it without the base easily. I saw bad reviews on this Safe Seat car-seat in the baby bargain book and still do not understand why this great product was given such a low mark "C"...Well, go figure... I also forgot to mention that this car-seat is usable with no problem with almost any strollers you see in the market. If you are a decent person, with two hands, two legs, in a good healthy shape and looking for a great car-seat which is worthy the money - Graco Safe Seat is for you (and your little one). Based on my experience - it is a very good car-seat and I will definitely recommend it to everybody! Thanks.

• Great car seat
  After searching and searching for a car seat we felt comfortable with, we decided to buy the infant safe seat by Graco. As new parents of twin baby girls, I just knew that I would get stuck carring both car seats and to my surprise, the were very light even with the girls strapped in. The only drawback that was easily fixed and not the manufactures fault was that my girls were very small at birth (4lbs 12oz and 4lbs 2oz). We placed a blank underneath the car seat padding to help boost them up a bit. Other than that, we are completly satisfied. ...more info
• WHERE IS THE SLACK?????????
  This is a beautiful carseat. I purchased the Graco Safe Seat in the portica line. I absolutely loved the base, the fabric, the sturdiness of the seat, BUT WHERE IS THE SLACK?????
  The only reason that I purchased this seat is my son has almost outgrown his Graco Snugride (the snugride is only rated until 22 lbs and 29 in). I wanted a carseat that would still work with my stroller and that I didn't have to take my sleeping son out of everytime we went somewhere. I had read reviews that this seat was heavier than the snugride, but I really expected that. What I didn't expect is that I can barely fit my 20 pound 27 3/4 inch baby into this safeseat that is supposed to fit a child up to 30 pounds and 32 inches!
  We followed the instructions for loosening the belt, the belt was only on the center (not even the top) and it is still TOO TIGHT! I can barely get my son in there (and it is summer so he doesn't even have layers of clothing on!). There is no way that we could use this seat with the belt on the top setting!
  We switched back to our snugride (which he can still use because he is only 20 pounds and 27 3/4 inches-plenty of slack). I contacted Graco, they did not have a "fix" for this issue. They are going to send me a shipping label and I will return this seat to them for a refund.
  Save your money! It is not worth buying this seat. It is heavier than a snugride, more money, and you won't be able to use it any longer than a snugride because of the seatbelt issue (NO SLACK).
  
  Overall: VERY DISAPPOINTED! Seat is being returned to Graco.
  
  UPDATE: Not as bad as I originally thought. After getting online to see what else was available to use with our travel system, we decided to keep this seat and use it as long as possible. My son has been getting thinner and lengthening. He is almost 29 inches and weighs 21 pounds. We are still using the seat with the harness through the center position. Currently we have enough slack. This seat is much more comfortable than the snugride (22) was for him. We have this in portica and it is a really nice fabric. We started using this right after I wrote this review (since I couldn't find anything else that would keep him rear facing and still be used as a travel system Chicco got even worse reviews!).
  Benefits over the Graco Snugride:
  -Secures better in the vehicle. Very snug. No movement.
  -Adjustable base with lock out and can be reclined (without using a towel)
  -Higher weight/ height limitations
  -While heavier to carry, the handle is more comfortable.
  -Mine has a "window" on the canopy to look into.
  -My snugride had to be adjusted in the back; this one has an adjustment strap to pull to tighten in the front.
  -Five point harness doesn't get twisted as easily and seems more secure.
  
  I don't think this seat is for very small newborns. However, I would use it over the Graco Snugride 22. It reclines back further. My model came with the matching head support and also harness strap covers. If I was using it for a very small newborn, I would add more support around the head (I had to do this with the snugride).
  
  After using this, I do now recommend this seat! Also, the stroller that comes with this is awesome. ...more info
• Car seat
  I used to work in a hospital with moms and babies and I helped many people get their babies in the car seat for the first time. I became very opinionated about car seats because of this experience. I really like this car seat. It is easy to adjust and use....more info
• Nice Car Seat!
  This has been an excellent infant seat for our baby! It's easily adjustable, roomy, and nice to look at. I'd buy another one if I needed too! The only down to this one is it's weight. It's pretty heavy, but you have to sacrifice somewhere for the roominess. BTW, we love the whole Graco ionic collection. We have the stroller and are looking into the duo stroller now too!...more info
• Awsome!
  Love this carseat and the fact that it will grow with baby and actually last until one year old! Wish I would have had it for the first kiddo!...more info
• Perfect Infant Car Seat!
  THis car seat is great! I love that you can use the infant seat until the baby is about a year old! Infants seats are so nice because you can carry the baby around from the house, to the car, clip in to the stroller and more! The seat is roomy, too....more info
• Like a LazyBoy Chair
  We started out using the Graco Snugride for our son. He is approaching the time when he is going to outgrow that car seat and we looked to Graco for the next appropriate car seat because we really like our current one and we know that Graco makes very safe car seats. This is a rear-facing car seat and is much larger then the Snugride. The car seat itself is really comfy looking. The seat is super soft and a lot more padded then the SnugRide. I bet my little guy will love this! I wish I had known about this car seat originally, because it can be used on newborns and has a higher weight/height/age threshhold that it can be used until. With the SnugRide, we could easily take the whole seat out of the car if our son fell asleep in it and take him in the house without disturbing him. Because this car seat is bigger and heavier, I forsee it staying in the car and taking our son out and either carrying him or using our umbrella/lightweight stroller to get out and about. Another small setback is that it comes with a different base to install in your car. No big deal, but if you've already bought an extra SnugRide base for a second car, you'll have to do it again for this car seat. If I had bought this car seat originally, I wouldn't have run into this small snag. Live and learn! ...more info
• What Graco Means by "SafeSeat"
  The most compelling thing I can mention as a reason to buy this seat is a detail that gets tucked away in the rest of the marketing material: this seat is engineered to double the required crash test ratings.
  
  The car seat industry is only required to meet a fairly low standard to be able to sell their product, and they're not required by law to reveal the results of their crash tests, so no one does.
  
  That's why it's refreshing that Graco has an offering marketed to be safer for your baby! That's what "SafeSeat" means.
  
  Other than that, I only sort of like the car seat. The LATCH hooks are less user friendly than the buckles of our old Chicco car seat base, and though this seat is designed to support babies up to "30 pounds", our tall 9-month old is pushing the limits of the slack in the safety belt.
  
  I also don't like the levelling system of the base, or the cheap "level" (really a free floating plastic dial) to indicate the seat is at the proper angle once installed.
  
  The design of the seat would only earn three stars, but the safety factor of the car seat earns it one extra.
  
  I'd certainly recommend the seat overall, and would definately purchase again. ...more info
• Very Happy
  We just recieved our Graco SafeSeat in the Rittenhouse pattern. Just thought I'd add two specific comments directed toward those shopping on-line.
  
  1. We bought from Amazon partially because of the really great price (it seems to vary every few days, so keep watching) and the free shipping. Supposedly it was going to take longer for the free shipping-- 3-5 days for order processing and 7-10 for shipping. I placed the order on the evening of 3/25 and it arrived 3/28. Now that's fast!!
  
  2. If you are a first time parent you may not be aware that car seats have manufacture dates. It is virtually impossible to find out the manufacture date from customer service agents (I tried lots of different websites), as the phone operators have no acess to the acutal product that's being shipped. It is on the outside of the individual box or stamped on the underside of your carseat if you're looking in the store. Lots of horror stories out there of online purchased car seats that were manufactured 3 years or more prior. Usually its not too big a deal, as most are thought to be safe 5-6 years after their "manufacture date". But if you are specfically looking for a manufacture date to ensure it is compatible with your stroller system or plan to use it again for another child later.. it may be more important to you. The Graco Rittenhouse we bought on 3/25/09 was manufactured on 12/23/08. Yea! Good work amazon! We're happy with our online purchase....more info
• Best infant car seat out there!
  We own the Grace Infant Safeseat in Ionic (the blue/gray/black pattern) and since this is our second child we knew what features we were looking for this time around and what to avoid. When my daughter was born, we were given a Graco SnugRide as a gift and found it to be very basic. It did the job without any problems, but there was no padding inside - just the fabric cover which didn't seem like it could be too comfortable in there for the baby. Also, the baby was in the 100th percentile so she outgrew the weight limit for the seat surprisingly quickly. I did find it a little difficult to carry, but this item ISN'T made to be carried around like a purse! It's a solidly made CAR SEAT. Any carrying is incidental and Graco makes a stroller frame so you can push it around instead of holding it.
  
  When we went to Babiesrus a couple of months ago to compare car seats, they were ALL of a similar weight so I don't get how anyone could complain about the weight of this particular seat. Weight of baby + weight of car seat = heavy. It's just common sense.
  
  Also this seat rocks because it has a higher weight limit - 30lbs instead of 22lbs. This enables the seat to be used longer before you have to transition to a convertible car seat and in my opinion a special infant seat is MUCH safer and more convenient than just going right to the convertible.
  
  With this line of seats (SafeSeat), every seat has it's own special feature - the Ionic has a silver heat reflective panel on the shade and a supportive padded headrest. We also looked at the Eclipse which had a more basic headrest, but had a nice velour snap-on all weather boot. All models featured better padding inside the seat than the SnugRide which, when added to the greater safety and protection makes it an excellent choice....more info
• Too heavy
  We purchased this Graco seat for our second child after being very happy with another Graco infant seat for our first child over 6 years ago. It is considerably larger - length, width, and weight than the previous SafeSeat styles. Our baby fit in it well, but my husband and I both struggled with the weight of the combined baby and carseat by the time our son was 8 months old. Because of this, we switched over to a convertible seat at 9 months, making the extra $$ we paid for the large size worthless. Keep this in mind if you foresee carrying/transporting your baby around a lot. This is a very heavy car seat....more info
• As advertised...
  We bought this seat for baby #3 to replace the SnugRide we loved for our first two. Both of our girls had to move up to a convertible seat by 6 months, and we are hoping to avoid that this time around. This seat is HUGE, so I suspect we will make it, but it comes with the associated trade offs. It is heavy, even empty. So as your baby grows, you will need to throw it in a stroller or leave it in the car if you are taking it any real distance. But for me, having the option to leave a sleeping baby in the bucket, far outweighs any inconvenience caused by the weight.
  
  Things I was worried about:
  
  It does not fit that great in grocery carts...but it does fit and I feel relatively safe with him in it (he doesn't like the angle it keeps him at, however, so we don't do long trips together).
  
  It works fine in the Kolcraft Snap N Go.
  
  It is not too big for newborns...in fact, he looked more snug than either of my first two in their SnugRide.
  
  It does what I wanted it to do (eliminate the need for me to have 2 different rear facing car seats, and provide me with a place to keep a sleeping 8 month old if I need one), so I would buy it again but if you are a person that likes to be able to carry the bucket around or want to be able to put it in shopping carts, I'd try it out in a store first.
  
  UPDATE: We made it to 8 months before giving in and putting him in a convertible seat. I have to echo a few of the other commenters about it getting tight for long babies (our son is 90+ percentile for height) -- once we moved to the top slot, it got hard to strap him in comfortably. That being said, I'd buy it again. ...more info
• Wish I would have read all the reviews
  When I initially received the car seat, prior to baby being born, I loved it. It was easy to install in the car and it was very padded. Now after having it for 4 months, I am ready to try something new. I wish I would have read all the reviews first. The material makes my son so hot. He will be drenched in sweat by the time I get anywhere, unless I make the car an ice cube before leaving. He is otherwise comfortable in it though. The only other real complaint that I have is that it is rather heavy. And now that my son is 17 pounds, its almost impossible to carry him around. ...more info
• Fantastic!
  My boys grow quickly and I always had the problem that they outgrew the infant seat before I wanted to switch them to a convertible seat. For this reason I looked at the safeseat as its weight limit is highly than other infant seats. We love it! Easy to clean, not too heavy and a breeze to install. I highly recommend it!...more info

• wonderful
  Graco Safeseat pretty much guarantees you will not need another rear facing carseat for your baby. It is good until 30 lbs and 36 inches, that should take care of 99% of infants. I love the adjustment for the straps in the front, because you can easily adjust the straps so your infant is snug. They really squirm around a lot in the beginning and this makes it easier. The carrier and base seems to be type of infant seat that parents like best. The carrier does get heavy, but you can eventually leave the carrier in the car and place your baby in it in the car. at least you don't need to buy another rear facing carseat. After they reach at least 1 year and 20 pounds they can be turned forward facing and you can usually find them a second carseat that they can use until they are out of a carseat....more info
• Safe and Convenient
  This is a great infant seat. The bases are very affordable and the attchment is a SNAP, literally. We purchased four. One for each parent and grandparent making switching cars very convenient. Five point harness really secures baby. We purchased an infant head cushion to really secure the baby's head and it fit right into the existing head rest.
  
  We also have the Graco stoller and the carseat snaps right in so we do not have to unstrap the baby to put her in her stroller. This is the best.
  
  The seat is a little heavy, (and gets heavier as the baby grows),but we do not usually have to carry it very far. My daughter is under 5 feet tall and she manages it with no problem....more info
• great car seat
  I was looking for the new version car seat that allows up to 30lbs.With the new law about rear facing until one year I wanted to make sure I only had to purchase one until I purchase the bigger foward facing carseat. This one is perfect, I bought it for my grandson, my Daughter loves the color scheme. It is black and silver mostly with a tiny bit of blue. Love the new harness closure system (bigger buttons)....more info

  Very nice. Fit our newborn right out of the hospital. Fabric stains EASILY! Although, its heavy, its worth it!!...more info
• Beautiful Seat
  This car seat is so much prettier than what it looks like online. I thought it was just solid gray, but it has a baby blue diagonal criss-cross pattern. And the darker gray areas are super soft. It also holds up to a 30 pound baby, so hopefully it will save me from having to buy a convertable seat at 8 months like I did with my daughter even though she was only about 15 pounds at the time.
  
  The seat is very easy to install and the straps glide very easily. For girls, there is now a beautiful pink Safeseat, but I guess since I have this one, it will have to do......more info
• Great Carseat
  I wish we would have just gotten this one to start with. We got the Graco Travel System with a Snugride seat for our shower and that worked great - but it's not meant for bigger babies. I really like the fact that we can use this one (hopefully) until our son is 1 year old. It is so much easier to transport him to and from the car and in and out of stores when he is in his carseat.
  
  This carseat works great with our Graco stroller and the pattern, while it doesn't match the Bancroft pieces that we have exactly, is still close enough that it doesn't clash.
  
  My only real complaint is that we needed all new bases. It would have been so much easier if this seat fit on the Snugride base. Oh well.
  
  Overall, though, we love it. And I've read other reviews that complain about how heavy the seat is; I just don't think it's that different from the snugride. I mean, we have a 20 pound baby in it, and then the carseat weight itself is in addition to that, so it's a bit to lug around, but I don't find it more cumbersome than just a regular infant carseat.

• Great for bigger babies
  Our baby boy has never been little, we started out w the graco snugride but by 3 mos our son was at the 22 lb limit. We liked the convenience of the detachable seat and decided to get the safeseat. Im so glad that we did and now our son can still see us while in his graco stroller and we dont have to wake him if he falls asleep in the car. I reccomend this carseat to those with older babies because the head support isnt as great as the snugride. It was easy to install in the car and there is a great feature that keeps the seatbelt in place across the base if your car doesnt have anchors. All in all this seat has been great....more info
• Wonderful Seat!!
  I love this car seat!! Great that the weight limit is higher giving my twins more time in an infant seat will allow a little more time for easy transportation!!...more info
• cannot find a second base to use car seat in your second car
  I've been looking all afternoon .... absolutely no base is available for this car seat except what comes when you actually buy the car seat. In other words, you have to buy the whole system, because it is impossible to buy a separate base....more info
• Great product would recommend it!
  I purchased the car seat and matching double stroller. I have a 3 year old & another little girl due in September & the pattern is so dainty & fits little girls so well without being to much. My sister had the Graco safety seat with her last baby & said it was well worth the money so I proceeded to look into it, which come to find out it's one of the safest seats out there. The stroller is very spacious & folds just as small as my single Graco one did with my first daughter. I am very pleased with both purchases and would recommend these products to anyone even if it's a different pattern which they do carry. ...more info
• NIcely designed stable seat
  I am not a baby car seat expert by any means, and have not really been in the market for many years, but my daughter is having a baby soon so I checked them out. This unit seemed to be one of the better ones and at a price, reasonable. When I was reviewing them most reviews were favorable. My daughter wanted this one and when I looked at it I felt it was of a good quality, and should do the job nicely....more info
• GREAT CARSEAT
  THIS SEAT IS VERY NICE, I LIKE THE FACT THAT IT HAS AN INDICATOR SO THAT YOU CAN TELL IF IT IS INSTALLED PROPERLY. iT CAN GET BE HEAVY AS YOUR BABY GROWS BUT IT WORTH IT WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY. I WOULD RECCOMMEND IT TO ANY MOM!...more info
