Ease of Use

The choice of a car seat for infants is essential because it's the only car seat you'll ever use for the first year of life. It is important to take into consideration safety guidelines from organisations like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). You can also count on resources like Consumer Reports and advice from other parents.

In addition to examining the NHTSA ratings and the vehicle fit information for your infant car seat, you should make sure that it's easy to install and assemble, that it's easy to move in and out and that the padding is comfortable and has convenient extra features. The best car seats for babies have self-checking features, which show you the color or bubble indicator to let you see whether you've installed the seat correctly.

Safety

There are many factors that can make an infant car seat less or safer secure. The first step to choose the right car seat for your child is to make sure that it meets your car's and the manufacturer's requirements. You should also refer to the manual for your car on how to install the seat using lower anchors and tethers (or seat belts for older cars without LATCH).

The simplest method to make a car seat safer is to make it more comfortable to use. Seats that are easy to use are more likely to be correctly used. Look for features such as handles that are able to grip the straps and sensor-equipped buckles.

Similarly, make sure you're buying car seats from a reputable retailer or site. It's not an ideal idea to purchase car seats from random sellers, or from websites that ship directly out of China. You should also avoid buying used car seats because they could be old or have been involved in an accident.

Comfort

A good car seat should not just protect your child, but also be comfortable for the newborn. Consider features like the thick padding, the easy-to-change harnesses and ventilation holes to keep your baby cool (especially if you live in a hot area). Comfort factors may be subjective and it's important to read reviews online and try out the seat before purchasing.

Another thing to take into consideration is weight. While all infant car seats available on the market meet federal safety standards, some are lighter than others. This is especially important if you plan to use the car seat in multiple vehicles or even attach it to a frame for your stroller. For example, the Nuna Pipa Aire RX is the lightest convertible infant car seat on the market at 6.2 pounds without canopy and base. Recently the Pipa Aire Lite is a less expensive but still safe car seat was added to the product line.

The seat is a bit narrower in comparison to other models. This is a good thing for most cars, but it could be a problem when you have an insufficient trunk. The shoulder straps are not adjustable in the height, and the belt guides don't provide enough padding to stop friction on your baby's shoulders.

Installation is simple

Car seats are extremely important safety devices, and they must be installed correctly to keep your baby secure. That's why it is one of our primary considerations when choosing the right car seat for your infant. A majority of the top baby car seats have self-checking indicators. They include bubbles or colored indicators that inform you when the seat has been installed correctly. This can help you avoid making potentially dangerous errors. There are even self-checking functions on the base, which is particularly useful in the event that you often swap the car seat between vehicles.

The most effective infant car seats are lightweight and easy to carry around. We love models that don't feel heavy when a child is sitting in them. Carrying a car seat that is too heavy can make your back and arms uncomfortable, so it's best to choose a seat with an appropriate weight range that feels doable for you.

We also consider the size and weight of the base and the seat itself, as you don't want to buy one that's too big for your car or will require some significant juggling to get out and in. We prefer seats that are narrower and can be tucked into three or two rows. They also tend to be less likely than seats with larger widths to rub against one another.
