Graco SnugRide —
The Graco Snugride is a great infant car seat. We used it with our stroller for the first 4 or 5 months. Our baby could have fit in the infant car seat longer, but we decided to move him to a convertible seat at that point. That said, the Graco Snugride is easy to use and very convenient. It's a safe seat and doesn't cost hundreds of dollars. The base is easy to install with either the seat belt or LATCH. One of the best parts of the Snugride is that you can buy extra bases for extra cars. That is a GREAT thing! It's so easy to just snap the carrier into the base and go. And it saves you money! The base only costs about $30-$40 compared to much more than that for a whole extra car seat. It does become heavy to carry once the baby weighs more, but you can always take your baby out of the seat and either put them in a stroller, cart or a baby sling. I highly recommend the Graco Snugride to anyone that wants a safe, easy to use seat that doesn't cost a ton.
