Most models of convertible car seats can handle a child anywhere from 5-65 lbs. An infant version of car seat usually handles 4-22 lbs. It is not always recommended to put a child in a convertible car seat until he is near 20-22 lbs. Some convertible car seats like the Safety 1st Intera can handle a child right from infant to 100 lbs. The main feature of a convertible car seat which is different than other models of car seat is that it features an adjustable harness to accommodate a growing child. Convertible car seats generally feature padding in the side of the car seat for side impact protection and they are generally LATCH equipped.
