gender neutral car seats

Looking at a few carseats, Graco Dragonfly, Rittenhouse or Orlando, what do you think, which is gender neutral? Not sure if Orlando is too girly.

I was Chat Icon and had a Chat Icon . I registered for & got the Graco Snugride Laguna Bay which looks similar (same colors) to the Dragonfly you posted. I'm Chat Icon again and boy or girl, I'm reusing the same seat.

I think DH would be most agreeable with dragonfly....I'm going to do a snap & go stroller too, so the pattern will also serve as the infant stroller so I definitely have to make sure it's not too girly for him! lol (he won't even hold my purse in public imagine if he has a boy and he has to push him around in a girly looking stroller Chat Icon

Re: gender neutral car seats

I like the dragonfly! Is that part of a travel system? We are teamChat Icon right now but I think we may find out but not tell anyone but either way the gear will be gender neutral.

Not part of a travel system (I actually find those too heavy anyway), but they have a matching lite stroller, I think the car seat just snaps on top of it, so baby faces you:

Re: gender neutral car seats

Ok, I just showed all 3 to DH, can you believe he finds the Rittenhouse pattern (2nd pic) the least girly??? And when I told him I loved the Dragonfly one he said he hates it b/c he thinks it looks like a Miami Dolphins color (can you tell he's a die hard Jets fan? Chat Icon ) If this is how he's going to decide which baby gear he likes, lord have mercy I'm in trouble!! Chat Icon

Re: gender neutral car seats

I posted about the 2nd one and most people said girly for that. I love it but I need gender neutral also. The only one maybe is the 3rd.

Re: gender neutral car seats

Just an fyi- the stroller you posted is a "classic connect" and the middle car seat you posted is a "click connect" so I dont think those are compatible.

I like the first car seat. I think its adorable and can go either boy or girl

my husband also ruled that one out as girly, I am still floored that he picked #2/Rittenhouse as the most neutral!!! Guarantee he'd change his tune if he saw it in person!!

And I *think* all the Graco carseats fit in any of their strollers if it says connect, but that's from reading reviews so I could be wrong! I will have to check w/ Graco to make sure I guess!

DH told me if I like dragonfly/the 3rd one then I can have that in MY car lol, hellooooo doesn't he understand we'll only have 1 infant seat but 2 bases? He won't even see much of that green color on it when the baby's in it.

Re: gender neutral car seats

why not go with the Graco Modes stroler, which is a snap n go, bassenett, and toddler stroller in one? You can get the tidle wave patter in the car seat which is gender nuetral and the onyx stroller which is plain black...
