Convertible car seat help!

Je

I need help choosing a convertible car seat! It's such a big decision for something my lo is going to be using for a while. I'm drowning in reviews and information please help!

* Goes from rear to forward facing

* Goes up to at least 80 lbs

* Will fit in a smaller car

* Preferably won't cost more than $150

* Of course, meets safety standards

* Comfortable for lo (possibly reclines)

I appreciate any input! Thanks in advance!
