We love our evenflo revolve 360 - it's not the cheapest but not the most expensive!

We use the graco extend to fit since it has a high rear facing weight limit like the Nuna (50lbs) and also works forward facing and converts into a booster for when they are old enough. Make sure to check the age requirements in your area though! Booster seats are usually only meant for 4 or 5+ years and are illegal for younger kids to make sure they max out the height/weight requirements on their forward facing car seat first

Are they supposed to be in boosters at one? Mine are still in their newborn car seats 😅

@McKenna they are not supposed to be in booster seats until much much older

@McKenna Booster seats are for ages 6 and up. This person is talking about a convertible carseat which they need to reword it

We love our graco extend 2 fit.

My baby girl just turned 1yr old so i need a bigger carseat or a booster,i am confused

@Fur do you currently use a removable infant seat that they’ve reached the height or weight limits of or are less than an inch from the top of the seat? If so, it’s time to switch to a convertible car seat that stays buckled in to your car. A booster seat just uses the car’s normal seat belt like an adult would use but lets an older child (5+ years) sit higher in the car so that the seatbelt fits correctly. There’s so much to keep track of!

It’s also recommended to keep babies rear facing until they reach either the height or weight limit of their convertible car seat for rear facing to protect their spines in a crash! You can look online to see if their is a CPST in your area that can help but I’ve really liked the safe in the seat instagram account as a resource

@Fur you need a convertible carseat not a booster seat

@Kaitlyn Actually you are wrong, a booster seat can be one with a 5 point harness

@Abby true you can get what are called harness booster seats which still use a 5 point harness, but a lot of the ones that people are used to seeing are using the car’s seatbelt with the goal of raising the kid to a safe height for the car’s seatbelt :)

@Kaitlyn there is no such thing as a "harness booster" because a booster seat that uses a harness is called a HIGH BACK BOOSTER. Stop commenting one something you know nothing about
