Graco Car Seats
One of the best known names in child gear and safety, Graco car seats area popular choice among parents. Here are some reviews of several of Graco’s popular models.
Graco’s SnugRide Infant Car Seat
This seat gets great reviews from parents. Comments include praise for its ease of use, secure installation, lightweight construction, and adjustability.
Parents in cooler climates appreciate its warmth and the covering for the baby’s lower half. Cons listed were that it is bulky and the fabric is heavy and not so soft.
Overall, however, parents rave about the seat and most say they would choose it again. Consumer Reports and other experts consistently rate the SnugRide as the best seat on the market.
Graco Toddler SafeSeat
This seat, a forward facing model for children weighing 20 to 40 pounds, also gets good reviews from parents. It has the preferred five-point safety harness and removable body positioning padding to make it fit such a large range of children.
The one big negative most parents report is its size. It is a huge car seat, which may make it inconvenient in smaller cars, or if you have several children in car seats to fit in your back seat.
However, parents also praise the seat, citing its comfort, ease of installation and use, and height, which makes it easy for kids to see out the window.
They also say it is a great price and is easy to take apart and clean. Of course, like all Graco car seats, it is compatible with the LATCH system and has passed all necessary crash tests.
Graco TurboBooster
The TurboBooster may be the most popular booster seat on the market these days. Boosters are used for kids who have outgrown traditional 5-point harness car seats but are still small enough in height or weight to need specialized restraint.
The TurboBooster comes in both a traditional and a backless model. The model with a back can have the back removed in a moment, making it great for older kids who still aren’t tall enough to sit in an adult seatbelt, but have outgrown their Graco car seats.
