Graco Smart Seat All-In-One Convertable Car Seat
With our family always on the go I always make certain that our boys are safely fastened into their car seats and booster seats. When it comes to picking out a safe seat for them I always do my homework. We look at safety reviews as well as reviews from other parents. This is something that we take very seriously.
Recently we have had the opportunity to test out the Graco Smart Seat during our busiest travel months and I have to say that we have been very impressed! For one I was most impressed with two features on this seat. I love the fact that it has a base that is always securely fastened in. This has made transitioning our two year old between my vehicle and my husbands A LOT faster. I also love the fact that it can recline for when he falls asleep during travel. Out of all the car seats we have tried, this one truly does a wonderful job so that his head isn’t flopping all around when he falls asleep.
This seat truly is an All-in-One Seat with the ability to go from newborn all the way up to booster seat. As most of us parents know…carseats are expensive so finding an awesome one that will grow with your little one is fantastic. It also helps that it has great safety rating as well as an attractive price (which this seat does)
The Graco Smart Seat All-in-One car seat is the ultimate in car seat longevity. This convertible car seat fits your little one from 5-100 pounds and features the convenient stay-in-car base so that you only have to install the base one time. For peace of mind, this seat has been side tested and SafeSeat Engineered. Both the car seat and the car seat base are steel-reinforced for strength and durability. From right out of the box this seat has been easy to use. There is a one-hand height adjustable head rest with no-thread harness which is amazing. I hate having to completely take out the harness and rethread out my little one grows and with this seat I never have to deal with that again!
Remember I told you how I go for safety when it comes to car seats. Well the NHTSA has recognized Graco’s Smart Seat with the highest government rating for Ease of Use in all Modes. All car seats rated by NHTSA meet Federal Safety Standards and strict crash performance standards. The Smart Seat did receive a five-star rating in this evaluation!
