The new Infant SafeSeat™ (Step 1) is one of the only Infant Carriers on the Market that will accommodate a child rear-facing up to 30 lbs. and 32 inches tall. Thus fitting 97% of one year olds which is very important as children must remain in a rear-facing car seat until they reach One Year AND at least 20 lbs. The convenient stay in car base features an innovative belt lock-off which tightly secures the vehicle seatbelt for easy installation. One-hand dial adjustment on the base will also help ensure that you have the proper angle for installation. The Patent Pending, 5-point harness buckle features a front adjust which make buckling & unbuckling more pleasant for both parent & child. This lightweight carrier is also equipped with an ergonomic handle to provide premium cushioning and comfort. In addition to the standard features of our Infant SafeSeat™this model is also outfitted with a 180° rotating canopy, removable infant head support and an all weather boot for extra warmth on chilly days. With all of these great features the new Step 1 Infant SafeSeat™ will serve you and your baby well from the time you bring your little one home from the hospital till the day he or she reach 30 lbs and is ready to move on to the Step 2 Toddler SafeSeat™.

Bigger than most but I still love it

"This seat is a lot more comfortable than most of the infant car seats. It is also alot bigger, doesn't fit in a booth at a restaurant like most, it takes up most of a shopping cart, and it is heavy.

Unfortunately it's time to move onto the next seat because we have a very tall 9 month old (30 1/4 inches!)an..." Read Full Review »

Love/Hate Relationship

I get a ton of compliments on this seat. It is VERY easy to use. I love how easily it goes into/out of the base. The base also allows you to recline the car seat, which is great for newborns. The straps have many different shoulder adjustment levels, which..." Read Full Review »

"We registered for this seat when we found out we were expecting twins. I LOVE this seat!! It is the easiest infant seat to install.

It is very padded, comfortable, adjusts easily, comes apart easily to clean (I did this monthly and only needed the instructions the first time). The base installs in like 10 …"  Read Full Review »

"My son has now grown out of this seat but I did want to let everyone know that the straps are too short for any 30 lb baby plus it is typically too wide to fit into any thing a restaurant offers you to sit it in while you eat. We usually had to sit it in a chair or on the table (which is not fun). …"  Read Full Review »
