CYBEX Aton G Swivel

A swivel-base is a game-changer for those who wish to travel light, transferring their infant car seat between cars without the hassle of uninstalling and reinstalling the base each time.

Graco SnugRide Convertible Car Seat

The Graco SnugRide is a reasonable option for families of all sizes. It offers a good combination of crash protection, features and usability, such as a front belt adjuster and adjustable base (in certain versions). It is also compatible with most strollers. However, it does have a few issues. The seat is unstable particularly when it is fitted with the belt in the rear. This can cause it to loosen and need to tighten over time. This isn't a safety risk, but it can be annoying for some parents. The second issue is that the crotch buckle's depth may be a bit too deep for infants, which may lead to them slumping over.

It also scores highly in our user-friendliness ratings, which include how simple it is to install the seat adjust the headrest and harness, place a child in the seat, secure the harness, and then remove the child from the seat.

The Graco SnugRide doesn't perform as well in other categories, including quality and comfort. The fabric is more plasticky than other infant car seats and the padding is thin overall. This is the only one of our top rated baby car seats picks that does not include a head support for smaller children This is a pity since it could reduce the risk of injury for some babies.
