Wouldnât buy another brand
On our second child and this is our go to brand. Love the extendable part on top, along with the ease of buckling our daughter in. Worth it.

Fantastic
This was a baby shower gift for my niece. Her baby is now 6 months old and I can truly rate this seat. It is great! It has worked amazing for her baby girl. It is a comfortable seat fo r the baby. It was easy to assemble. The material is sturdy and fabric is soft. We haven’t had any issues at all.

The plastic buckle clips by the legs are a hazard
Dug into my newborns legs and started crying really bad. Couldn’t get it right enough and just an overall bad design for the price. Strap covers are too thick too. The whole car seat is terrible now I have to waste my time returning in a black trash bag since I threw away the box before my newborn got here. Other safety 1st car seats don’t have the buckles look like the one on this one

Lots of features! Easy to use.
This car seat has a lot of neat features for sure. It has a base that comes equipped with anchors that are spring return, much like a seat belt. They have their own slots to secure into when not in use, so you don’t have anchors swinging around getting in the way if you’re not using them. If you are using the anchors, once these are secured and the base tightened down as it should be, there is a locking lever that locks the anchor belts in place, so they are unable to loosen, much like the lock on a seat belt.There is a pressure indicator on the base that shows green when the base is tightened down enough. Also, the option to use a seat belt to secure the base is available. There are instructions on the base itself for both uses.The latch and release mechanism on the car seat is easy to use. It is pretty much like any other car seat in how the 5 point harness system works, and for loosening/tightening of the baby’s straps. The hood is nifty, in that there is a zippered mesh extension in it that allows more coverage on the car seat, without trapping to much heat. The only downside of the hood is that it is so stiff it takes both hands to pull it forward – you won’t be doing it one-handed without it snapping. Maybe that will loosen up, but I doubt it.There’s a good amount of padding around the belts n such for an infant, but I must say, once they’re big enough to not neat all that cradle padding, the cover on the frame of the car seat itself is a little thin and doesn’t afford much cushion.

Very lightweight, basic infant car seat
Our main travel system is Britax, but I wanted a backup car seat for when grandma is helping with the baby. Safety 1st is a solid budget brand, and this car seat follows that identity. Itâs made of lightweight plastic, which means it doesnât feel that durableâbut that also means itâs easy to carry. And anyone who has had to lug around an infant in a car seat knows that the seat being lightweight is a huge pro.This seat was simple enough to install. Again, this isnât a seat that comes with all the bells and whistles, and itâs a standard newborn seatânot a convertible one. Thatâs what I wanted as I wanted something specifically for a newborn. (On that note, I also like the newborn insert it came with for the early days.)The fact that the seat pad is machine washable gets an A+ from me; itâs not too difficult to remove either.And in terms of preference, I think the beach rose is a really lovely color thatâs a bit more interesting than your basic gray or black seat.
