I have 10 week old twins (boy and girl) and needed car seats that would fit in the back seat of my mazda 6 wagon along with a booster. These car seats are the only ones that were small enough to fit, although just barely. My babies were 5lbs14oz and 6lb4oz and they fit into the car seat wonderfully. I bought softer, smaller headrests. The only complaint I have is that it is difficult to get out of the base and I usually need to pull on the release several times (a problem when I'm standing out in the rain with another baby!) It's nice that it comes in pink and blue (I have both)-fabric is nothing special though. The car seats do the job and will work just fine for the first year.

This is the only carseat that would work for our smallish girls (both born under 5 pounds). All other car seats were either too big for them or wouldn't fit in our minivan. These are sturdy but not too heavy. The base is a hassle to install, but they all are. Tried 2 other sets of carseats before these and none of them worked. You'd be surprised at what seats WON'T fit in a minivan!

This is my second Snugride and I did find the fabric to be rough but after a few washes it was great. Whoever said it was bulky and heavy obviously hasn't read up on other infant seats, the snugride is one of the lightest. The fabric also cleans up easily.

I have a Jeep Wrangler and the car seat fits just fine as the base is adjustable. Also love the fact that it has a matching stroller that we use often!

i bought this car seat because it matched the jewel mosaic stroller. i had traded in my evenflo stroller after having a lot of problems with it. i wanted to hav e a travel system that still matched. this seat is SO easy to use. it is very easy to adjust the straps, and super easy to carry. it is much lighter than our other car seat was.

I love the color of the car seat. It was really hard for me to find a car seat that I liked, because I am one of those terrible nit picky soon to be moms. I chose Graco based on safety reviews. I have had no trouble with the base whatsoever. The car seat is a slightly tight fit in the back seat of my Lexus IS300, but it's manageable. Besides, who really cares if the passenger is uncomfortable, as long as baby is safe? :) Ha! Overall, its a great car seat.

I found this easy to use, in spite of the instruction booklet that is in need of reorganization. A police station helped us with a trick to installing it at the proper angle... swimming noodles! Other than that, the harness is easy to adjust. We use a rolled up receiving blanket to cushion her head because it flopped to the side. My newborn falls asleep as soon as the car or stroller starts to move.

My husband and I were in a terrible car crash last weekend with our eight-week old baby girl (other car ran a stop sign and crashed into the driver side door at 45 MPH.) Thankfully we were all okay outside of scrapes and bruises. We had this car seat in the back center location facing backwards and it worked perfectly. Baby was absolutely fine without a scratch on her. She screamed in response to my scream, cried for 10 seconds after impact, and then fell right back asleep. After the accident we destroyed the seat and base (as recommended despite the fact that it looked fine) and replaced it immediately with the same exact one. Cannot praise this seat enough. It saved our baby's precious life.

This carseat is very easy to work with, baby fits in it very nicely. I think its very stylish and definitely supports my baby. My daughter is now 5 months and growing just fine in it.
