I am very pleased with this seat! We wanted to buy the bigger infant seat so that it would hopefully last longer and it did!! My daughter is 1 year old now and though we are looking for the next seat up technically she can still ride in this seat and she is a big girl!! One thing that I read in the reviews and it is true is that the seat is a little bulky and heavy but to me it was worth not having to buy 2 seats the first year.

Very comfy car seat, much more so than the snug ride we have had both. Straps are easy to adjust and really keep baby safe! We were in a rollover accident with our 8 month old baby in the car. He was in his Graco safeseat and came away without a scratch, even though we flipped 3 times. Doctor said it was a miracle he survived. Would never buy any other seat for my children, it saved his life!

I love this car seat! We purchased it before our first child was born 14 months ago, and are excited to use it again soon for our second child coming in May. I get compliments all the time on the beautiful fabric, and I love that I can use it for both a boy and a girl - pretty AND practical! It's very durable - holds up to washings very well - and seems to be very safe. I have no complaints whatsoever - great seat!

We ended up very happy we went with a car seat rated for 30 pounds, as we now have a 20 lb 4-month-old! This car seat is great in terms of being easy to use, gender-neutral, and looks great.

Love it!!
We've nickenamed it the Cadillac of carseats. Its nice and safe.. my only problem with it is that the fabric keeps my sons back really hot and if he stays in it too ling he gets uncomfortable and over heated.

We really liked this seat. We used it from birth (9 pounds) until 1 year when she got to 32 inches, but only 22 pounds - she's very tall. It seemed very sturdy. The canopy/sunshade was generous. We got two bases so we could just snap it in and out of our two cars. It got to be too heavy towards the end so I ended up taking her in and out of the seat in the car and carrying her in one arm with the car seat in the other hand. But we were still able to use our snap n go style stroller until 1 year, which was great for those naps on the go. It does not fit in an upside down high chair restaurant - but that's not safe anyway. We used a booth or on the floor when she wasn't on our lap. After a year the seat is still in good shape. I'd definitely recommend it.

I love this car seat. It is safe and very durable. It is a bit bulky, but on the plus side the baby can stay in it longer since it is great for longer infants. The straps are easy to adjust. Also, when the fabric gets dirty it's very easy to take apart and throw in the washer. I have washed this several times and the fabric holds up great! I have used this car seat with two children now and it's still in great condition. The sun visor gets a little loose after a while. That is probably the biggest downfall.

I really like this car seat. The color is gender neutral and my daughter looks comfortable in it. The only problem I have with it is that it is very heavy and awkward to carry. Usually my husband carries it, but when we aren't together my arm feels like it is going to break. As a first time mom I also did not know car seats exist that transform into all three stages starting with the infant seat then the front facing seat then the booster seat. Next time I will most likely buy a seat that transforms. But, if you are looking for just an infant car seat this seat will do.

We had the snug ride for our first two boys. I have big babbies (ie 11 lbs and 23 inches at birth) and they grew out of the seat at 4 months! I got this one because it is bigger and was hoping to use it longer. My son is 6 months and I think he will make it another month or so. Not till 1 but still better than the old one. It is a bigger seat which makes it harder to fit places and it is heavy but for me it is still the best combo an infant seat till about 7 months then the rear facing converbible for a while. Love the color and pattern. I did notice that when our son was first born the angle due to the seat being bigger was not as great for the little ones. I liked the way the snugride(smaller graco) fit for the newborn better.

This is a great car seat! Addie has been using it since we brought her home from the hospital and she is now almost 6 months. She still fits in it very comfortably, considering she is big for her age. (She's wearing clothes for 9-12 months.) I love this car seat because the straps are easy to adjust and Addie seems very comfortable in it; she falls asleep in it all the time. We actually got another car seat as a gift and we never use it because it's not nearly as cushioned as this one. I would buy this product again. I also like that the pattern is unisex, considering we have another one on the way!
