Baby Products Reviews of Graco SnugRide Infant Car Seat, Platinum

Customer Review: Easy to Install, Very Safe
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this carseat. It was super easy to install with the latch system and is very, very safe. Once the base is installed, it's very simple to pop the seat in and out of your car. I have a base in my car and my husband bought an extra base (only about $35) for his car. That way, we can easily switch cars without having to install the base every single time. It took us a total of maybe 30 minutes to set up and install everything. I highly recommend!

Customer Review: A solid purchase you can feel good about
Summary: 4 Stars

I just installed this car and am very happy with it. It fits nicely in my Rav 4. The SnugRide 32 was way too big and heavy so I went with this one. The colors and design on the Milan are super cute. My only complaint is that the fabric is a little rough. Contrary to many reviews, this seat IS FULLY ADJUSTABLE from the front. It is actually quite easy. Happy Shopping.

Customer Review: Wonderful Pattern for a Girls Car Seat
Summary: 4 Stars

I pre-ordered this Graco Snugride car seat in the "Ally" pattern 2 months ago, before it was released. I fell in love with the modern look of the gray/pink contrasting dot design. Originally, it was to be released at the end of January 2010 but that date was pushed back to the end of February. This caused me to have to pay more for faster shipping so that it would be here in time for my babies arrival. Since I paid extra for shipping I was dissappointed when it arrived with a huge gouge in the box which was taped over, I assume by Fed-Ex, the shipper. Luckily the seat and base within the box were not damaged. I don't blame Amazon for these problems but if this seat had been available to purchase in a store near me, I would have preferred to purchase it in person and avoid the problems I encountered with shipping.

The seat itself looks just like it was pictured. The only thing I did not realize, is that the shoulder straps adjust in the back of the seat as opposed to the front adjust I was expecting. After experimenting with strapping in a doll I borrowed from my daughter, I don't anticipate having any huge problems with this design feature. In fact, I seemed to be able to adjust the straps tighter and with greater precision than I remember being able to with my first child's front adjusting infant seat. I was also able to move the straps from one shoulder height to the next up with greater ease than with the front adjusting model. That said, I may change my mind once a crying baby is occupying the seat.

Overall, I am pleased with my purchase and the cute pattern of this seat makes the shipping problems I experienced and any future difficulties I may have with the back adjusting shoulder straps seem worth it.
