Infant Car Seats

An infant car seat is the first seat a child will ever ride in. Infant car seats can accommodate a child from 5-22 lbs. and up to 29 in. in height. An infant should never be placed into an infant car seat when above 22 lbs. or 29 in. Infant car seats are car seats which feature a canopy which is adjustable or has the ability to rotate. A canopy will protect the car seat from the elements. Another needed element of a great infant car seat is the LATCH system. Most car seats feature LATCH, but you should always double check. LATCH makes installation more secure as the car seat will attach to anchor points which are installed all cars manufactured after 2001. Infant car seats are much more secure when it comes the LATCH system. Another outstanding element found on some models of infant car seat and other car seats too is the EPS foam. EPS foam makes the car seat safer during an impact. One of the infant car seats which features EPS is the Graco SnugRide. The snugride is the perfect infant car seat as it encompasses all of the elements needed in a nice car seat. Other top models of infant car seats include the Britax Companion, Chicco Keyfit and Evenflo Discovery.
