Newborn to toddler car seat system recommendations?

Question

Okay yall, give me your favorite car seat systems
 We are looking for one that grows with baby as they get bigger. I would love a stroller that it snaps into as well. This is our first baby and I've spent 2 hours this morning looking online and have NO CLUE what I'm doing. 🙄 Its overwhelming. We just want something reliable and that is versatile for when our little girl grows from newborn to toddler

Answer

So, as far as I know, you can get an infant seat that snaps into a stroller OR you can get a convertible seat that grows with baby from infant to toddler. I don’t know of an option that allows both, and I have done sooooooo much research into car seats. We have this one for little babe due in April / it’s an infant seat that snaps into our Joovy Qool stroller. It’s good till babe is 35in or 32lbs, whichever comes first. 
We have the Diono 3RXT all in one convertible seat for toddler, and will get another one when the time comes. It’s good from infancy all the way through 120lbs as a booster seat. It cannot be removed from the vehicle and snapped into a stroller.

Answer

I have these for my girls. I love it! Cant say enough good things about it. It is rear facing up to 50 lbs. I don’t know of any convertible seat that will click into a stroller. We used an infant seat and then at 6 months switched to a convertible seat

Answer

Unfortunately, as many others have stated, there are no convertible car seats that snap into a stroller. Convertible car seats are generally quite heavy and they’re not meant to be taken out of the car once they’re installed. The infant seats are much smaller, lighter, and meant to be able to click in and out easily from your car, then either used as a carrier or snapped into your stroller. Infant seats have a nice sturdy handle to make this possible.
That being said, if you want an a good convertible car seat recommendation I love my Nuna Rava. It’s very comfortable and extremely safe. It’s relatively easy to install as well. It can be used from birth until your child is ready for a booster seat around 5/6 years old. My favorite infant seat is also a Nuna product, which is the Nuna Pipa. All Nuna products are nontoxic (which is rare these days) and very high quality. The Pipa is the lightest car seat on the market so it’s ideal for transferring from your car to your stroller, or just using as a safe carrier for dr appointments, etc.

I bought the Zelia because it is what it says it is: cozy. She’s very safe and secure, but most of all, comfortable when traveling in her car seat. It EASILY transitions to the stroller chassis or, if I choose, I convert it to a bassinet with just as much ease.
Installation wasn’t a headache, I’m overall very happy and it’s a great dry run for when I transition her to her big girl MaxiCosi in a few years. At 30 pounds, she won’t fit the car seat, but we will use the stroller until 50 pounds—which is a truly good sized girl! So I’m happy with my choice. It was between this and Britax, and I honestly just liked this aesthetic more.

Answer

I don't think there are any transition car seats that snap into a stroller. I've only ever seen infant car seats that do that.

Answer

This is what a lot of people recommended to us and we put on our registry!

Answer

I don’t think there is a travel system (bucket car seat that snaps into its stroller) that also converts to a toddler seat. 
We did the travel system until baby was 10 months old. We still use the stroller. We then purchased a convertible seat that will do rear facing (til 40 pounds) and forward facing (till 110 pounds). You can do a convertible from the beginning but it stays in the car and can’t be clicked into a stroller

Answer

There is no convertible that snaps into a stroller. 
We used uppababy for an infant seat, and went with clek for our covertible when it was time. Just to clarify, babies really shouldn’t be in their infant seat unless they are in the car. Positional asphyxiation is a concern when they are that little. The car seat, although it does click into the wheels, really shouldn’t be used as such. Finding a stroller that offers either a bassinet that clicks on, or has a recline that is safe from birth is a much safer choice. Uppababy, bugaboo, Valco, baby jogger, and others offer that. 
We chose uppa and clek because we were able to get all natural materials that don’t use fire retardant, and avoiding those chemicals is important to me.

Answer

The only seat you’ll ever need. Expensive, but it’s so worth it. Britax is top of the line on safety tests.

Answer

Happy with our evenflo pivot xpand modular travel system - car seat + stroller - the stroller can be used as a double too!
