Any Infant-to-Toddler Car Seat Recs.???

Wow!!! I just realized that Sydney needs new car seats. At 5 months she has already exceeded the 26 inch limit for the Graco Snugrides that we have.

Can anyone recommend a Infant-Toddler Car Seat that they are happy with?

I guess it wasn't so smart to register for the infant car seat knowing that she could take after DH and be on the tall side....She's in the 91%tile for length. Chat Icon

We have the Evenflo Triumph. It's easy to install and very roomy. It received great reviews from Consumer Reports and it was in our price range.

I have the Britax Marathon. Worth every penny. We moved Andrew to that seat at 4 months old when he outgrew his infant seat.

We've been very happy with the Britax Boulevard. I love that I can adjust the shoulder strap height with a simple knob and not taking the whole seat apart!

I have the Eveflo triumph also. We have been using it for two years and I LOVE it. MY all time favorite thing is it has a knob on the side to loosen and tighten the belts, so it is easy and you dont have to worry about the seat belt being tight enough.

I didnt even have my baby yet but we registered for the Britax Boulevard. The reason we choose this was for its safety reasons and it seemed it could really grow with the child and the backs were higher than other brands. So if you child is tall that might be something you are interestead in. I believe the weight goes up to 60lbs. I would go to Babies r us and try each one out in their and see which ones work for you.

We have this one too. It was up there on the higest safety ratings and was 1/2 the cost of the Britax.
