| Great Seat!
by Mountaingirl from Colorado Springs, CO | Mom Rating:

| Best: Works with the Graco Literider stroller |
| Worst: |
| Full Review: This is a great car seat. I have the Graco Literider that matches and love that they go together to make a lightweight travel system. This car seat is easy to use, easy to install and I think is the safest. |

| Great infant car seat for us!
by 3boysmom from Laguna Niguel, CA | Mom Rating:

| Best: Great Safety Rating! Easy to install! |
| Worst: |
| Full Review: We love our Graco Snugride. It's a rather light car seat to carry even though they are all pretty heavy once you have the baby in it as well. I love the fact that the safety rating is great -- that was the biggest selling point for me. Also, it's really easy to install and easy to snap in and out of the base once the base is installed in the car. I also like the fact that it is compatible with many, many strollers! |

| Best: Safety |

| Full Review: This is a fine seat, I suppose, but I wish someone could invent something not as heavy or awkward to carry or more attractive. This is the safest seat, but I would buy anything else if there was another choice. |

| SnugRide is Worth Every Penny
by TiffanyM from Tampa, FL | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Unparalleled safety record, easy to install, comfortable handle, giant sun canopy |
| Worst: Straps are hard to clean |
| Full Review: I read everything I could on every model of infant car seat since it's such an important purchase and the SnugRide is the highest-rated choice in all categories on pretty much every site and blog out there. You can't do better. The handle is the most comfortable. The fabric is plush and machine washable. The LATCH clips are the easiest to clip. My favorite feature is the extra large sun canopy, great for cold wind shield as well. Once my baby moves to a bigger car seat, I don't know how I'll live without it! |

| Very neutral seat for boy or girl
by courtneyrippy@hotmail.com from Austin, TX | Mom Rating:
 |
| Best: color |
| Worst: not comfortable to carry |
| Full Review: I really wanted a nice looking seat for my 3rd baby that did not look to pink or blue. This seat looks great. It seems very saf and my baby love to sleep in it so it must be cozy. However, after having Peg seats with my other 2, this seat is much more uncomfortable to carry on my arem than the others were and my baby is still under 10lb! |

| Best Car Seat!
by scattered86 from Savannah, GA | Mom Rating:

| Best: Safety Comfort and Styling |
| Worst: None so Far! |
| Full Review: I did a lot of research on car seats before finally settling on the Graco Snugride in Platinum. I had a misconception that the pricier the seat, the better it was. Being in the design field myself, I wanted a seat that was functional and aesthetically appealing at the same time. I found it all in this seat! I looked at the higher end brands, all of which looked great, with some having good-great safety ratings, but they lacked the overall versatility of function that this seat has. (Some won't fit on a shopping cart or aren't compatible with other strollers, etc.) The sun canopy is great to shield my little one from the hot summer sun at any angle, while still being able to peek in through the tinted "window" on top of the shade. The fabric is very soft and smooth, and in a lighter color where the baby rests (to avoid overheating). The seat also comes with a bootie attachment to cover their feet in the winter. Yes it’s a bit heavy with the infant inside the seat, but any seat with a 10-20 lb baby inside would be! Overall-- you can't beat the safety, comfort, and function of this seat for the money! |

| #1 Infant Seat
by MamaSez from Detroit, MI | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Large sun canopy, ergonomic handle, cheap price |
| Worst: Heavy, fabric can be scratchy |
| Full Review: I've used the Graco Snugride for both of my kids and it's not only the best seat in terms of safety and installation, but it held up really, really well. I didn't get the fanciest fabric (what's the point, the baby is just going to throw up on it) but it still looks pretty good after repeated machine washings. The handle is the easiest to carry. Five-point harness is great. I recommend this to all my expectant friends. |

| Baby Zeus Loves his Car Seat
by rokkette from corona, CA | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Safety rating, styling and lighter than most. |
| Worst: Tight fit in my husband's toyota tundra extra cab. |
| Full Review: I purchased the platinum snugride and my baby Zeus loves it. He gets a huge smile on his face when I put him in it because he knows he's going for a stylin and comfy ride in the car or his stroller. It comes with the base but we purchased a 2nd base for our tundra. Its a tight fit. Not too big of a problem for us because I'm short 5'3" and don't mind riding with the seat pushed forward.
I purchased this seat for its safety rating and eps feature which means it absorbs impact better than most. It easy to install in vehicle with its LATCH system and simple click in base. I'm all about good design and dual purpose when it comes to baby stuff and this seat fits the bill. It snaps into a number of optional accessories i.e. glider, stroller frame(great for travel) and works great with my musty stroller.
We were considering the Valco Tri-mode which also works with the car seat and may still purchase it later if we decide to have a 2nd child. We opted for the Mutsy stroller because the car seat fits the stoller and the optional accessory, Mutsy Sitter which turns my graco car seat into a rocker. It makes it perfect table height. I actually get to eat a hot meal when he sits with us at dinner time and makes it easy to entertain him while I work on the computer. We get tons of compliments on its styling and multi-function I wouldn't consider anything else. |

| A No Brainer!

| Best: Best Safety, Best Looking, Easiest to Carry |
| Worst: It doesn't change dirty diapers! |
| Full Review: If you are shopping for an infant car seat and you've done any research at all, you know there's no other choice than the SnugRide. It's the best seat out there bar none! Nothing compares to its ease of installation, its convenience or its features. Do yourself a favor and get the SnugRide. You won't be sorry! |

| We Love Graco!
by Aimee from New York, NY | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Safety, easy to install, great handle and PINK patterns! |
| Worst: |
| Full Review: I'm a big Graco mom and the SnugRide is the best infant car seat by far. It's easy to use, easy to install, easy to get your baby in and out of, has lots of great features. I especially love that Graco is now offering boy or girl colors. The pink is so cute! You won't go wrong with a SnugRide! |

| Best Infant Carrier Seat -- the Snugride!
by MadMaxine from San Luis Obispo, CA | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Great patterns, not too heavy, stay in car base so easy to use |
| Worst: Fabric is a pain to remove for washing |
| Full Review: I've gotten Snugride car seats for all of my babies and there is no better seat! Sure it's heavy. Sure it's awkward to carry. But it's better than anything out there. My sister had an Eddie Bauer infant seat and she hated it every day. I loved my Snugride! It's so easy to move baby from car to stroller or shopping car and back again without waking them. The large canopy is great. I love the fabric, but be warned that it is a giant pain to take off to wash (which is inevitable when your baby spits up). If they could make the cover remove more easily, it would be the perfect seat! |

| Great Infant Seat!
by hrl2545 from Denver, CO | Mom Rating:

| Best: Easy for us to install and adjust |
| Worst: |
| Full Review: We have the Snugride car seat and it's great! It snaps into my Graco Quattro Tour which makes taking my daughter out a breeze. I love that I can leave her in her car seat and take her from the car to the stroller without waking her. The seat itself is pretty light. We had no problems installing the base in the car and adjusting the straps seems pretty easy right now. |

| The Only Choice for Your Baby
by Katie7 from Seattle, WA | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Safety, luxury fabric, Graco padding |
| Worst: So darn heavy! |
| Full Review: I love my SnugRide! I have a Bumbleride stroller because I'm not a big Graco fan, but after doing my research, I found there is no other choice with the safety record and ergonomic features. My SnugRide came with extra soft padding, gorgeous fabric, padded harness covers and a cute little cover for the baby's feet in the winter, which is great for where I live. It's a great car seat and I highly recommend it! |

| Great seat
by SusieQ from Boston, MA | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Best everything: safety, installation, size, style |
| Worst: Handle |
| Full Review: This is a great infant seat. It's the safest on the market. Installs easily. I only wish the handle was more comfortable to carry, but it is what it is, none of them are comfortable. |
