The Best Infant Car Seats

If you're looking for an option that won't be so rough on your wallet, the SnugRide SnugLock 35 by Graco will please both you and your budget. While testing, GH Lab pros found this car seat easy to install and loved the expanded weight range it accommodates—from four pounds with a removable newborn insert to 35 pounds. It also offers a four-position recline and can be installed with or without a base using a European belt path.

Good Housekeeping's experts found that this pick has "all the things you want in an infant car seat," including a large canopy, machine washable seat pad, the previously mentioned stroller compatibility, and more. In their assessments, Lab testers particularly liked how easy it was to install using LATCH and to secure your child inside the seat. However, it is worth noting that at 10 pounds, this carrier is on the heavier side when compared with similar options.

This infant car seat is the newer version of the KeyFit 30, which has long stood out to GH Lab experts for its ease of installation, crucial to ensuring the safety of your child. While the KeyFit 35 is slightly heavier and more expensive than the 30, it includes an anti-rebound bar and is able to accommodate slightly larger infants up to a height of 32 inches or a weight of 35 pounds, allowing you to keep your baby in a rear-facing seat longer. The carrier also clicks from the car seat base directly into a range of compatible strollers, making the entire transportation process a breeze.

Infant car seats are always rear-facing. They use a five-point harness to keep babies secure, and lie nearly flat to accommodate infants who aren't yet able to hold up their head. To find the best infant car seats, GHI evaluated multiple criteria, including safety, company customer service, ease of use, installation, angle and harness adjustments, and removal of the carrier from the base.

What Is an Infant Car Seat?
While there are a variety of child car seat types, styles, and brands for new parents to consider, an infant car seat will likely be the best option for the first few months following the child's birth. Not only are infant car seats generally a bit smaller, most double as baby carriers and sync with popular strollers, allowing parents to keep their child safe and secure (and hopefully asleep) while moving them from car to stroller and back again.

The GH Institute tests hundreds of baby and child products every year, and that includes dozens of child car seats. Clearly, GHI lab technicians are experts in the field, and we trust their research and data to be complete, thorough, and correct. This roundup of the best infant car seats you can buy is based on Lab-tested picks, category expertise, and real-life consumer feedback.

To help expecting parents decide on an infant car seat, we turned to our colleagues at the Good Housekeeping Institute. When it comes to advice for keeping your children safe in the car, we know it's safe to trust the knowledgeable parenting and product experts at Good Housekeeping, which, like Car and Driver, is part of Hearst.

Expecting parents often find themselves in a conundrum: Buy an all-in-one or convertible car seat right away, or start with an infant car seat? Most convertibles and all-in-ones claim to be appropriate for newborn babies all the way up through childhood, but infant car seats are designed with newborn-specific needs in mind.
