Graco Snugrider Infant Car Seat Frame Review

I have loved my Graco Snugrider Infant Car Seat Frame.  It is so easy to use and it folds up very compactly.

I have used this for two children now and it has been great.  It is very compact and lightweight and pretty affordable at around $60 or so.  With a small car, it is very easy to fit in and out of the trunk. When I get to my destination, I just pop open the trunk, and grab the stroller frame.  It has a very simple two step assembly for opening.  I grab my baby while she's still in her carseat and the carseat snaps right on to the stroller frame.  It is super easy to use.  I just wish the storage basket underneath it was just a bit larger.

The biggest drawback to the stroller frame is that by 5 months or so it becomes pretty hard to pick up the carseat while the baby is in it and you pretty much stop using it.  Now I use a full size stroller.

Bottom line: If you are watching your wallet, save your money and just go ahead and buy a full sized stroller that the car seat can fit into.  It's not that much bigger than the stroller frame.
