We chose this seat because we thought it would last a long time. It did. My daughter finally outgrew it at 18 months. I love being able to take the seat inside in cold weather, but once your baby hits 10 lbs or so, it gets quite heavy. But, the easy install in your car, or someone else's is truly wonderful.

I bought two Graco Snugride 32 car seats when I was pregnant with twins a little over 3 years ago. My sister had bigger babies that would outgrow the regular car seats before they turned one, and she had to purchase additional rear facing seats. I did not want to face that, so I went ahead and bought the bigger seats from the "get-go". I have been very happy with these seats. My girls used them until they were about 15 months old, they were a little smaller, and so they used them longer. My son now at 9 months has passed the 20lb mark that would have made him out grow a standard carrier car seat, but he is still able to use the Graco Snugride 32 just fine. The one down side is the weight. The car seat itself is a little heavy, and if you add a 20+lb baby to that it does get very heavy, especially if you are lifting it into a tall SUV. Most of the time my husband carries him in and out, if I am out by myself I have started leaving the seat in the car and just taking him out to carry. I know some people would say to replace the car seat with another rear facing seat, but I really don't see the difference between having this just stay in the car, or another seat in the car, and this way we have the option to carry it in when I need my crawling baby to stay put for a minute or if he is sleeping. Ease of Installation Once the base is in it stays in the car. I love the lock built into the base, makes it very easy to secure the belt. Child's Comfort Very comfy, a lot more padding then some of the cheaper versions I have seen. Ease of Use Only down side is the weight as the child gets bigger, it is a lot to carry big baby in a heavy seat. Design Pretty much built like standard car seats. Durability I am using this on the second child and have not had a problem yet.

We bought this car seat for a great price. It is very easy to install in our vehicles. It is easy to adjust to fit our baby as he grows. Design I really like the fabric and pattern used. It has a little padding for extra comfort. The only problem is the harness is a little short so we may not get as long of use out of this seat. The seat is easy to wipe off or wash in case spills or spit ups. Safety This car seat meats all safety standards. The base has a latch system which makes it really easy to install in newer cars. It has a five point fully adjustable harness and a front harness adjustor strap. Child Comfort My baby really seemed to enjoy traveling in this car seat and often falls asleep in it. The padding is a bit too warm for my baby though. Maneuverability The car seat is a little heavy and big, but it fits perfectly in the Graco snap and go stroller frame. Durability It has held up really well and still looks brand new after almost a year's use.

This car seat has done wonders for us. It isn't super high tech but we got in a car accident and it did it's job and our daughter didn't get hurt at all. It's very easy to get in and out of the car also which is nice. Durability Went through an accident and kept our daughter safe. I feel this carseat is durable and safe.

This carseat worked great for my son until he was almost a year old. After that he seemed cramped and was ready for a forward facing seat. Design Very cute designs. Child Comfort The padding wore after six or so months. Maneuverability I loved being able to take this carrier anywhere with me with comfort.

Durable car seat used for both my girls. Lasted until they were over 1 year old and then they were too long for it. Easy to get in and out of base. Since it is bigger, it is heavier though, which makes a difference when the children get bigger. Fabric is easy to clean and has never been torn even with everyday use.

This car seat worked as promised and fit with my graco stroller, but my 2 children hated to be in it. I chose it because it had a high weight limit of 32 lbs but for this reason it was a very upright design that my kids absolutely hated. They were much happier to be in a sunshine kids convertible car set that let them be more reclined and less crunched up. I also find this car seat to be very heavy and hard to carry with one arm. On the plus side, it fits with many graco strollers, has an attracting, easy to clean covering, and is very easy to use with a car seat base or with a seat belt. I've traveled by airplane with this car seat on numerous occasions and found it very easy to install quickly without a base in a taxi or other car, once I got the hang of it the first time. So, if your kids are relaxed and laid back, or fall asleep easily in the car, this car seat would work great. If however, your children always like to be in your arms or are high maintenance, you might want to choose a car set with a lower weight limit even though it means you will have to buy a bigger car seat before age one.

One of the most overwhelming choices can be your child'S carseat. We have found this to be easy to use while giving us peace of mind that our child is traveling safely. It is not difficult to click in and out of its base. The straps adjust well as your child grows.

The Graco SnugRide 32 Infant Car Seat is the style we went for when choosing a car seat for our babies. It was comfortable enough for a newborn and I felt it was safe enough to hold our precious cargo not only once but 2 times. Of course we used different car seat, cuz they do expire. But we choose the same style again because we were confident enough in it to make sure our little ones were safe and sound.It had a super cute design and the comes with head rest to support a newborns little head. I like how far back it reclines because babies don't have any muscle control in the neck just yet. The straps lock in across the chest and in between the legs and all the straps are adjustable. The height of the straps are adjustable as the baby grows. The handle is very simple to use and goes all the way back to make face time with baby very easy. Overall its a great car seat and we have been recommending it to all out friends since. Ease of Installation Just snaps into the base. Child's Comfort head rest for newborn and lots of cushion Support and Safety never had an accident in it but I feel very comfortable with my children in this car seat, so much so that I've used this kind twice. Ease of Use simple just place baby in, snap buckles across chest, and snap other buckles in between legs. Design comes in a variety of different shapes, designs and colors. Durability last pretty well. DOES expire. but the cover can take a lot of "baby mess"

I have two young children, and used a different infant seat with them, but it was getting older, and we were never crazy about it since it offered very little padding for the baby, and no head support for newborns. It also only held a baby up to 22 lbs, and both my babies outgrew it very quickly. When we found out we were expecting again, I began searching for a carseat that would be safe, comfortable, and gender neutral. We are also a single income household, so affordability was also I factor. After all my research, I settled on a Graco SnugRide. I was able to find a barely used one for a great price, and bought it. I absolutely love the Townsend pattern, and the materials it's made with. The seat is soft, but luxurious feeling. The colors are chocolate brown, and blue/teal. Very appropriate for a girl or boy. It comes with an extra newborn support that is great for the smaller baby. The seat straps are easy to adjust, and very secure. The seat holds babies up to 32 lbs. too. I am very happy with it!
