Question

Hi. I just had my little girl on the 4th of this month she came a lil earlier then expected im looking into car seats that are by graco i found one called graco safe seat step 1. i was wondering if any one has ever used it, if so how would u say it was and can give me some places where i can get more info and reviews on it. Also i was wondering if any of ya knew if it would fit into a kia sportage or a hyundai tuscon. i had a even flo discovery and it was too big for my car n just had a recall. if any ones ever used it or had a snugride graco as well can u tell me if theres any size diffrence between them. if any one could help me i would love it thanks

the car is actually quite big its 4 doors. 5 seats. my discovery was big to begin with maybe thats why when i put it in i couldnt move the handle all the way back.it also hit my back seat and i couldnt see out my back window for anything! the one i want is the safty step 1 its the safest out out yet and i just need to know will it fit or am i wasting my money

its not the snugride i want its the safty step 1 graco. i just wanted to kno if theres a size diffrence between that and the graco

Answer 1

First just FYI, the discovery seat was never actually recalled. I saw that article too and was concerned as at the time our son was usign one. In fact consumer reports withdrew their remarks urging for the recall. It was found that they did their testing all messed up.
Second, the Discovery is the smallest infant seat that we found but Im not sure if we tried the other one you are looking for. We have a tiny, compact car too and had troubles finding one that fit in it.
Good Luck! And congratulations on your new baby!

Answer 2

We just bought a Safety 1st Starter car seat and it adjusts to fit the car seat. It's pretty nice. I have never used the Graco Safe Seat Step 1 but I know that Toys R Us and Babies R Us sell Graco products, and some of the staff there can be really helpful (some of them).

Answer 3

I also have a Graco Snugride. I love it! It fit well in my car (Focus). I had a Graco with my last child too. We never had any problems with them. We got ours at Target, and it was reasonably priced.
Hope this helps!

Answer 4

I have the Graco snugride, it is great, and also did well on the consumer reports car seat testing.

Answer 5

in case you may purely arise with the money for one automobile seat and don't plan to have yet another new child interior the subsequent couple of years, then get a convertible. in case you do plan to have yet another new child, you certainly might desire to justify the value of the toddler seat. remember, those issues are no longer any solid after 5 or 6 years, so must be thrown out besides. you will get greater mileage to you cash with a convertible. in case you employ a sling, you do no longer choose the provider (which hurts your back besides). in case you do no longer plan to spend lots time in department shops, the provider/cart gadget is purely no longer well worth the money the two. you would be greater powerful off with purely a common stroller (returned, the seat could must be thrown away at last). a large number of ladies use purely convertibles and not in any respect get the toddler provider, so do no longer rigidity approximately it. toddler will in wonderful condition wonderful. If it did no longer help her, they could no longer record it as solid from 5 kilos. i could upload that i did no longer discover it from now on durable to adhere the toddler into the automobile seat interior the automobile vs. sticking toddler into automobile seat and then right into a base interior the automobile. although, i've got not got an SUV the two. that would complicate issues in case you ought to climb out and in. yet another benefit of the toddler seat is in the experience that your toddler has reflux or a chilly, they breathe greater powerful if left to sleep of their carseat (strapped in, of direction). can not do this with the convertible because of the fact it is put in interior the automobile. This concern does not impact maximum toddlers, although.

Answer 6

The infant car seats today are huge!!! They are all to big for compact vehicles. If you have 4 doors on your vehicle, I would recommend getting a convertible carseat... one you can use from now until they're 80-100 pounds.

Congrats on your little one.
