Graco SnugRide SnugLock 35 Elite Infant Car Seat, Baby Car Seat, Oakley

This thing has changed everything about having to take our newborn out! With our first daughter, we decided on a Graco Grow with Me car seat. That thing is a beast of a car seat - it's super safe and will adjust as our daughter grows through each stage of needing a car seat. We have no regrets about that, and this infant car seat will be replaced with one of those once our newborn has grown more. That being said, the grow with me car seat is heavy, bulky, not easy to install. As safe as it is, it's fairly inconvenient. I had to lug it up to the hospital room and carry our first daughter down in it. At each doctor's appointment, I had to hold my daughter for an hour or so. With a bad back, and as she grew heavier, it became tough. This infant carrier car seat solves those problems so well! My second daughter is able to lay in it comfortably while we wait in the doctor's office. We don't have to wake her, pulling her out of the car if she happens to fall asleep. It has made travel with her so much more convenient while remaining safe. The carrier has the added benefit of fitting our Graco stroller. It goes from car seat to stroller with a click of a button. We love this thing!PROS- Convenience! This carrier car seat makes going to the store or doctor's office magnitudes easier than a traditional car seat. It'll save your back!- It's light weight! I can easily carry it with one arm, and my wife doesn't have a problem lugging it around either!- It fits with certain Graco strollers, too! It's doubly convenient to push a single button on the car seat, push a single button on the stroller, then attach the two together. Our daughter hardly stirs through it all.CONS- Price. You pay for all this convenience and safety. Your child will outgrow this carrier and you'll have to replace it, so it's an added cost.- It isn't as safe as a full car seat. At least from my research, a full car seat is safer. That isn't to say that the carrier isn't also fully safe - just not quite to the same degree.

Bought for my grandaughter! Super easy to keep clean, very comfy. Convenient to use and attach to car! Is very sturdy! I highly recommend!

This carseat is definitely worth the money! We really love the detail to support. It has plenty of padding for a newborn and includes the shoulder traps. We really appreciate the ease of use with the lower anchors that click in the seat with ease. And the sun visor is excellent. It has the mesh zipper for added length but also air flow and it will definitely be handy for little one on rainy/colder days getting in and out of car. The visor does get a little in the way with the handle as stated by a few others, BUT doable for the price. Wish we had this with our other two children because it's such great quality to safety and comfort.

LOVEEEE this car seat! First time mom here- I was searching all over the internet for the safest, comfiest car seat for our little baby being BOMBARDED by all these insanely expensive options. This car seat is definitely a great middle ground on price and has all the safety features we wanted. Everything else was either too expensive and over the top, or I felt they were not expensive enough to have the safety features I would hope a baby carrier has. I went with Graco because I know the brand name and generally hear good things.... this car seat is why. Its very lightweight without baby! The click connect is the most fantastic feature... It makes loading up and going places, not so scary. Our baby sleeps like a rock in this car seat and we actually let her sleep in it for a few days when she had a cold to keep her upright and she slept great for being sick. I did panic a little when I didnt see the inserts (other car seats have an infant insert, and then a 0-3 insert and then you have to adjust the straps and inserts to match baby growth) HOWEVER... This beautiful, wonderful car seat has a button on the back that you click and slide to adjust the straps to grow with baby. No silly inserts or complicated straps to pull out and adjust and reattach... Just a pinch and slide to adjust the whole head support piece. HIGHLYSUGGEST, getting the double stroller to match this car seat. The car seat literally just clicks right in to the stroller and its SO easy to open and close the stroller. We got the double to have extra storage space, an extra spot for baby #2, AND the back seat of the stroller folds all the way down for baby to take naps. We love everything about this car seat and we will definitely stick with Graco when we go up to the toddler car seat. If you are a new mom and not sure what Car seat to get, GET THIS ONE!!!

Came very fast! And the packaging came in perfect condition. It is light for a car seat. Just of course expect it to be heavier with a baby in there.

Great seat. After someone rear ended our vehicle we upgraded our car seats. I did lots of research and read many, many reviews for different seats, ultimately choosing this one. It has a special lever that makes it easy to install the base firmly in the car with the Latch System, I was so impressed. First disappointment, infant insert is very thin and tiny. I didn’t feel like it gave enough support for my little one so actually swapped it out for one from a Convertible seat we just bought. Secondly, it is really hard for my hand to squeeze the release lever to lift the seat free. It latches at both ends of the seat so sometimes the head end will release but the feet end is still caught. I am 5’ 3” and am kind of at full extension trying to reach to release the seat from the base which is located in the middle of the back seat in our SUV. It takes all my hand strength and I can just barely get the latch to release fully. If our vehicle was lower to the ground or I was taller, it might not be such an issue. Just a heads up for someone who doesn’t want to shake their baby around while trying to get the seat unlatched from the base. 😆 Otherwise I am very happy with the quality of the seat.

I love the enorgonomics, easy to use, looks fancy, easy to clean and it's also pretty light!
