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).

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!!

As advertised…
We bought this seat fo 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.
