Baby Trend Secure Snap Tech Infant Car Seat, Nimbus

The only thing I don't like is the buckle, but that is a BabyTrend thing. Otherwise the carseat is so cozy for the baby with the extra infant padding, pretty light weight to carry, works with the double stroller, easy to install, and looks nice.

This is an awesome car seat. We have used it for two kids so far, and it has held up well. It is nicely cushioned, unlike other car seat options. It is super easy to install as well! We have installed it in cars with hooks and with just the seatbelt - both ways are user-friendly. It fits on our BabyTrend Sit-n-Stand Double Stroller. It has kept our little ones safe, and we got in on sale, so it was an awesome deal. We highly recommend!

I own three of these and they both have held up great. Washed the padding several times and its still good to go. The ease of being able to just pop this thing out of and in a car with the press of a button is great. You also have the ability to purchase the base separately as well if you only need one car seat and have more than one automobile.

I was initially very satisfied with this car seat, but it seems that it is designed for a newborn with tiny legs. My baby is not even 3 months old yet and already has outgrown this car seat. Even with trying to adjust the straps, they are too small and the bottom buckle digs into my baby's thigh. It's extra padded and stays in place while driving, but you may soon need to invest in another. Update: The cushions actually come out of the seat, which allows for more room for the straps, once removed. Eureka!

Going from a sturdy Diono that I couldn't take out if the car to this, has its pros and cons. It feels cheap as in it's all plastic, but the ease of use cant be beaten. It's incredibly soft as well. No hard seat as I've encountered with infant car seats (same brand) in the past. There is also a seat belt lock so when you pur the base in there is no movement if you're just using a lap belt as is the case with my Explorer's middle seat. The con is the stroller that goes with it ....the bassinet style is not used friendly. The car seat snaps onto the stroller easily enough, but have fun getting that sucker off with one hand. Just know you'll have to put all your stuff down and have a but of tug of war in the cold, windy parking lot!! Other con is the head rests are stuck on with a very narrow strip of velcro, so if one gets dislodged, you have to stick your head in to make sure you have it linee up just right so it doesn't come off again or lean towards baby's face. Bottom line, the comfort improvement and seat belt lock feature is nice...very nice, but compatible stroller use, not so much.

I loved the car seat, it was light and easy to install.

So I’m gonna say that I have over researched every baby product because it’s been 10 years since my last baby was born and we live in a pretty rural area. So I can’t just go to the store and check out what’s available. Therefore, doing searches on Amazon become very overwhelming trying to sift through hundreds of products. We were looking for a car seat that would go with the baby trend expedition zero flat jogger. Needing a stroller with highly durable, bicycle wheels for all the different terrain we trek. I had bought this car seat and also a SureLift model to compare the two. This model definitely has an ease in removing the car seat from the base with the latch being right under the feet, and I also prefer the ease of adjusting the height of the base to level a car seat. Pushing a button couldn’t be easier. What I don’t like is the shiny cheap looking car seat handle. What’s a dealbreaker for me is the buckles. Between the legs each strap buckle has to be pieced together before it snaps into the red receptor. And those pieces are plastic. I don’t think I’ve ever seen plastic five point harness pieces for the buckle between the legs. I prefer this color in comparison to the SureLift, but it all boils down to the five point harness system. Will definitely be returning this one. One additional convenience difference in the two car seatsis the SureLift car seat has the side grips for additional ways to carry. I am also remembering the shirt lift has an additional visor piece to fold down on the canopy cover, which is a nice addition. They both have the ability to adjust the height of the straps as the baby grows, but the sure lift has a push button feature. Whereas this one has a dial to crank. I do, however, like this car seat base better and the security of using the belt latch. Just my two cents. Thought it might help someone else.

We are obsessed with this car seat we purchased this in pink when we went to go get our newborn foster when we had to reunify her - we returned it then we got the call for a baby boy - and our local store didn't have this carseat in any color but pink so we purchased a different one - and we HATED it so the next day we ordered this online and returned the other one what we love... so our foster boy is premie - and in this one his head doesn't fall down at all - the cushions on the side hold him up very nicely hes nice and snug inside the carseat - he honestly looks protected from just a glance the criss cross handle - easy to hold and easy to rock when on the floor only downside is it is one of the heaviest car seats we have seen - but its worth it for protection
