GRACO SnugFit 35 Elite Infant Car Seat Baby Car Seat with Anti Rebound Bar, Pierce

I get Graco products for my niece because i trust their record of safety. This car seat seems well-made, sturdy, and durable. My niece seems quite comfortable, judging by her good humor and her ability to nap in this car seat. It was easy to install in my car, and the carrier was easy to snap in and out. The seat was easily adjustable to several tilt positions, though i mostly used two of them, one for awake and one for asleep. I really like the sunshade and the easy-to-remove lap cover, for shade and rain-shelter and, currently, for added warmth.

I hoped I was making a good choice when I chose this car seat and I think I did! The adjustment feature in this is awesome. Just slide is up to loosen it, the I push it back down and pull the belt in the front to tighten back up. I don’t know if that’s the “right way” but I find it super easy. Since my baby was 6lbs when we left the hospital I did put in a little head rest to secure her head even more, the one built in is super nice but for real small babies you probably will still want that. She’s 6 weeks now and we took it out. I love that the canopy/hood thing (what is that called! lol) comes down so far, keeps the Sun off her when we’re driving. I do love the single button at the top, although I do wish I didn’t have to let it click in at every position, I wish i could just hold down the button and move it quicker but oh well. Also the quick click feature is good too.. love hearing it click in lol and it works good with my graco jogging stroller

Got this car seat for my baby boy due in 2 months! I love how soft the fabric is in the car seat and it felt pretty light when I picked it up. Also love that it’s all adjustable so easily! Super happy I went with this one!

This is a beautiful, elegant seat. I never thought Id use that word for a carseat. Its well made, and very secure.

This car seat is excellent. Comfortable for tiny baby up to older babies. Plenty adjustable. Easy to install. It doesnt have the notches so you can put it on a shopping cart and the inside of the seat- the bottom and the backreat- are two separate pieces which is a little weird and seems like it might be uncomfortable. Still a good seat though.

Is it heavy? Yes, but thats not too much of a problem, since I dont carry it around a lot.

It has a lot of padding for comfort and support. I like that you only need one hand to adjust the handle. I like that it has the all weather boot for keeping their legs and feet out of the elements. It has a nice quick release for taking it out of the car. It is lightweight for carrying. When the canopy comes down to the boot it covers the whole child. When you unzip the canopy it has mesh for airflow. I like how easy it is to buckle in and unbuckle the child. I think you would be very happy with this seat I know I am.

We were using an old Graco car seat and our newborn rode in the car with no problems. We ordered this seat and she would cry after about 10 minutes and would not stop. Every time we got her out of the seat her back and head would be drenched with sweat. We had the A/C blowing directly on her and she would still scream, until she was out of the seat. Her arms and legs would be ice cold and her back and head would be hot and sweaty. Even indoors in a comfortable temperature she would get overheated. There are warning stickers on the back of the seat that are not removable that I believe contribute to the problem. We have switched back to the old seat and she has had zero issues with overheating.

We tested several car seats and found that with all the changes they are making to the designs, Im actually having some trouble lifting these things. This one is very very sturdy, very strong, well built, secure, but I can still carry it. For a child growing older, with a seat that adjusts for an aging child, you can leave it in the car once they reach a certain age, but before that you want to be able to carry it and I found that this was still good for carrying, even though it is very secure and that brings a little added weight. I feel safe lifting it and working with it.

Graco made it easy to install this seat by providing us with a several different ways to install it AND a guides on the seat itself so you cannot make a mistake. Seat has illustrated stickers making it a breeze. You can install this carseat with the base or without the base which is helpful if you’re taking Uber ride for instance. You can fold your stroller and put it in the trunk and secure carseat without the base on the back seat. At the end of the ride, you’ll just pop the carseat on the stroller, no big bulky base to haul around.
