How did you decide on which car seat to get

DS is still in his infant seat and is probably overdue for a new one. How did you decide which ine to get? They needto be rear facing for 2 years right? They're not all both rear and front facing, right?

We bought it based on price and how it fit in out cars. We needed 3 so we weren't paying 300 per seat.

I wanted something that was easy to use, had good reviews, and was easy to clean.
We narrowed it down to three, and asked car seat safety Chris to tell us our best option given our cars.

There's plenty of seat choices out there but some are better for kids thay are taller or shorter. Depends on your car, your budget too.

Not all seats can rear face and foward face. There are seats that foward face only.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation is to rear face until a minimum of two years old regardless of height and weight as long as they are within the limitations of the seat.

PM me if you have any questions or want to discuss options. I'm a certified car seat technician.

it was recommended by a doctor who specializes in cat seats for our car. If I'm going to invest in anything, its going to be good carseats.

I wanted something that DD will be able to use for a while rear-facing. Went with the Diono Radian.
