I purchased this car seat a couple of weeks before birth. My son was born premature which was completely unexpected but I had zero issues with putting him in the car seat safely. I would definitely recommend this car seat to first time parents. Pros: Extremely easy to install into car! Very sturdy and parts seem to be strong and not flimsy Cons: none so far :) Flo · walmart.com

I did lots of research on lots of different car seats and this one was one of my favorites. After researching I’m glad I went with this one! It has the comfiest seat and lots of padding for your little one. Seriously looks so comfortable to be in. Also has lots of safety features that I liked. The canopy is absolutely silent which won’t wake up your baby. The fluffy headrest is very adjustable and May · Target
