Product Description

The Infant SafeSeat Car Seat is the only seat that holds babies up to 30 lbs. and 32" tall. That means it fits 97% of one-year-olds and can keep your baby rear-facing for one full year. It's been extensively crash tested to meet or exceed U.S. standards, and engineered for safety.

The seat's base stays put in your car for a convenient, one-time installation. Its seat belt lock design makes it simple to tightly secure the base, and an adjustment dial helps for an easier installation. The seat's patent-pending 5-point harness can also be easily adjusted, thanks to an accessible front strap.

The carrier handle is uniquely designed so it's more comfortable for parents to transport. For baby's comfort, the padded seat has an infant head suport plus 180-degree canopy. All this means you'll enjoy a full year of hassle-free travels with your most precious passenger.

Customer Reviews

Takes up WAY TOO MUCH SPACE!
I can't stand this car seat because it takes up way too much front to back space on the car seat. In order to fit it into our Chrysler 300M we had to put it on the rear right side seat and move the passenger seat all the way forward! Our car has quite a bit of space in the back seats, but this car seat takes up way more than it should.

You also have only one slot for the front buckle that goes between the baby's legs, so it's not adjustable in that sense.

The mesh cover is nice and soft though :)

Really consider this....
We were swayed by the height and weight limit for this car seat as our previous two children both grew out of the other one by the time they were one. So, we decided to go with this one since it claims it will accomodate an infant up to 30/32. The problem is with the leveling system...if you adhere to the guidelines the baby's head is tilted with the chin ending up in their chest which inhibits their ability to breathe. Also, it doesn't necessarily accomodate a smaller newborn...our daughter was 6 lbs, 8 oz and 19" long and these straps barely have the ability to tighten enough to be snugly safe. If we had the money we would go back to buying an Eddie Bauer model like we had with our two older children. We wish we'd kept the other one, but this was a surprise baby and we had already donated the other to a needy family.

Also, the car seat does not latch in a shopping cart and therefore has to be placed in the largest part of the cart for safety reasons which makes shopping for more than a couple of things virtually impossible.

While the weight and height limits are good on this...the rest leaves much to be desired.

Excellent infant car seat.
I read the Amazon reviews, but more research on this seat yielded better results.

My wife and I are approximately 5'10" and can fit in a Subaru Outback with the car seat securely fastened in the back. It's snug for the front passenger, but adequate.

We were swayed by the 30 lbs. limit on this first seat for our child. In some other seats, we'd be having to expend time and money buying another soon, but I'd still be comfortable purchasing another Graco.

Installing the base using the LATCH system is a breeze and is fairly intuitive. Removing the seat from the base is a simple squeeze with one hand.
