Recommend your "easy to use" convertible car seat

So I ABSOLUTELY hate my infant seat. Its impossible to open and close the straps making getting DD in and out of it torture... DD at 5 months still screams most of the time when we are hooking her into the seat (I would too because it takes me sooooo long because the buckle is the worst)
I refuse to make the same mistake again with the convertible carseat... I want the absolute easiest to use (and obviously safe) carseat... By easiest to use I mean easy to get DC in and out and to close and adjust the straps.... Any suggestions would be wonderful. Thanks in advance..

Before you take him out of the infant carrier, did you raise the shoulder straps? I think most carseats have 3 slot levels to adjust it.

As far as easy convertible carseats. I have 3 britax's. You do not need to undo anything to raise the shoulder straps. There is a know that you turn and I like that I can make it gradual instead of it being preset.

I have the Britax Roundabout and find it very easy to use.

Combi Shuttle.... I got it because it was part of a lightweight stroller travel system ( I actually love the stroller part), and because I liked the way it looked Chat Icon

Thanks for the recomendation...I was considering the roundabout, and its good to know that you find it easy to use!
