I have 2 month old triplets, and we have 3 Mico carseats from Maxi-Cosi (Quinny). Here is the link for the one we have : http://www.maxi-cosi.com/maxicosi/productindex.aspx?id=14&language=us-en
We got 3 different colours. We bought ours in the Netherlands when visiting my parents in law, and they shipped it to LA.
We ordered a special triplet stroller, and we recieved plenty in advanced, and they fit perfectly.
The carset came with the base, and a sunshade. We bought bug protectors mostly for touchy hands from strangers.
We also bought 3 single quinny strollers, which work very well also (We are in the netherlands again, and my sister and her husband are travelling with us, and the airline does not accept the triplet stroller for gate check, so we shipped it in advanced, then we all pushed a stroller, and had one adult left over).
I have a 10 day old baby, and we bought her the graco snugride in the maria print. It is not heavy, and we bought the set that comes with seat, base, and stroller. I love it the the actual carseat snaps right into the stroller, I take it everywhere. Give is a try, Graco is a great brand, looks, price and safety wise.
yes graco snugride is great.i would try tha.
the base on the baby trend is the slimmest, bit the seat isn’t. the chicco keyfit is the slimmest all around and gets rave reviews. its lighter than the safeseat but holds the same weight.
I have the Chicco key fit and its great. I love it, easy to use and light weight.
I would recommend the maxi cosi car seat.
So…your not preggo yet? Sounds like your a planner like myself lol. I’m looking for future baby products to purchase as well(this will be #3 for us too, hoping to get pregnant this month!) and I worry about size with our 2nd vehicle which is a Taurus. From what I have seen Combi is very lightweight and much smaller than the Gracos. We almost got a combi with our last daughter but ended up getting a graco travel system for girly color purposes (which I regret now looking back).
Baby Trend looks just as heavy and bulky as Graco. Evenflo appears to be more narrow and lighter though I’m not sure on the quality of Evenflo???
I would still have to suggest the Combi seats for being the most lightweight and size effective. I am looking at the Peg Perego and that does look smaller as well, though I have never seen one I wonder if anyone has ? They are too pricey for me though
