When i was purchasing a car seat for my second child I immediately went for the infant seat/stroller combo-  what a waste of money!  My son, who was actually born a month early, was too tall for the infant seat by 4 months of age!!!

 So I started researching car seats and decided to purchase this one.  It was definitely a great purchase.  At 4 months, in the rear-facing position he could see out the windows.  Now he's 17 months, forward-facing, and he doesn't complain about being in his seat.

The seats are super comfy (I'm assuming), because they're so padded and the material is soft.  This model comes in so many prints and colors, it should match any car decor.  The straps are easy to adjust, and if your car is LATCH equipped it takes seconds to install.  I actually move this seat back and forth between two cars almost every day.

Because this seat goes up to 65 pounds, I'm not planning on having to buy another seat ever.
