We have a graco travel system that we have used for our daughter (17 months) and our son (3 months.) Its great because it snaps into the stroller, car-seat base in the car, and our graco snugglider travel swing. Its very convenient. The straps are kind of a pain in the butt though, they only adjust in the back. Im not sure if the newer ones have the button that makes it so you can adjust the length of the straps in the front by baby’s legs, but look for that.
We have a Britax Boulevard for our daughter now, which can also be used rear-facing for a newborn. We have a Britax Marathon for our son, and next month we’ll be putting him rear-facing in that. The Britax car-seats are top of the line, extremely safe and VERY comfortable. We have a Graco forward facing carseat before our Boulevard, and when we switched I noticed an immediate change in my daughters behavior in the car. She was much more comfortable. The seats are very soft, and very padded.
If you want an infant seat rather than a convertible seat I would look into Britax- i never owned the infant seat they produce, but im so impressed with their convertible seats that if i have another baby I WILL purchase their infant seat.
Hi, I am in the UK and car seats is a much talked about subject due to people buying ones not compatible tot heir cars, we are all recommended to use this website http://www.britax.co.uk/ which shows what is suitable for your car. Hope it helps!
Graco Travel System is great! The carrier is rear facing and it will last until the baby is around 1. It attaches to the stroller. The carrier is the best the part because you can carry the baby everywhere. It can be attached to grocery baskets etc. I forget how much I spent on these.
I also love the Cosco Alpha/Omega carseat because it goes from newborn to 100lbs. This means you wont have to keep buying carseats. This one goes all the way to booster. I bought the carrier because I loved being able to bring the baby everywhere and not having to wake him up to get out of a carseat. I switched to the Alpha when he grew out of the carrier. I am still using the stroller at 14 months.
I bought a evenflo carseat with the stroller combo for 180.00 at Walmart I enjoy it very much and now my son is fifteen months old and we just use the stroller, but I am saving the carseat for the next baby. It was comfortable for him he fell asleep in it every time.
I hav e the Graco snugride and I love it and it was about $75 at Target. I have all Graco products. The are rated very high.
