Pros: easy to clean,can be used as infant and toddler Cons: none
My sister-in-law bought theCentury 1000 STE Classic car seat when my niece grew out of her infant one. I liked the fact that it had a 5 point harness system. This system is recommended by safety experts to be the best way to restrain a child in a...
Pros: price and safety Cons: little padding and twisting straps
How we met:
Being the collector of baby equipment that I am (my husband calls it a fetish), I needed a third car seat for my then 6 month old daughter. I was going back to work and our babysitter needed a seat. Consumer Reports made the...
Pros: 2 position buckle adjusts easily when going between bulky and light coats, level indicator, higher rear facing weight Cons: Straps get twisted all the time, plastic shield bent out of shape after 5 months
When my first son was born, we decided to skip the infant car seat and just buy one car seat that was for infants and toddlers. When our second son came along, we immediately purchased an infant seat.
Pros: Inexpensive, five point harness, level indicator, relatively lightweight - great for forward facing air travel! Cons: hard to adjust twisty straps, inconvenient to use rear-facing, annoying chest clip
My husband and I both expected a lot more from a seat that was rated #1 by Consumer Reports. It is our backup car seat, but we both do everything we can to use the other seat and attached car instead. My other car seat is a Britax Roundabout, so I'm ...
Pros: Relatively inexpensive, nice fabric Cons: Poor design, difficult to install and keep secure
My search for a new carseat took place immediately after my son and I were involved in a car accident last September. He had been riding in his infant carseat when we were hit from behind. I was told that it was longer safe to use that seat, so we went...
Pros: five-point harness system, easy to install, easy to use in forward-facing position Cons: a bit difficult to use in rear-facing position
We started our son out in an infant car seat. When he was getting close to 20 lbs., we started reading up on different toddler seats, and saw a lot of good reviews on this one. We especially liked that it has the five-point harness system, which seems...
I recently purchased the Century 1000 STE carseat for my son. In the past I have been partial to Evenflo, but I decided to try the Century, mainly because of the price.
Boy was I shocked when I went to adjust the straps, I can't believe how...
Pros: Five-point harness - very safe; very affordable Cons: Problems in rear-facing position with car's seatbelt over child's legs making it difficult to get child in and out of the seat; belts get twisted over time
After reading about this Century 1000 STE in a Consumer Reports book my husband and I decided that this would be the safest carseat out there for our son - and VERY economical! This seat does just this - it keeps the child very safe. The five-point...
I purchased two of these seats for my twins when my larger baby got close to the 20 pound limit on her infant carrier/carseat. After doing the research, the was the obvious choice - first, economy, I needed two seats, and the Century 1000 was only $35...
Pros: Five point harness system nice, not too bad of a price Cons: Horrible time trying to install
I received this car seat as a gift at my baby shower. When it was time for my son to "graduate" from his infant car seat I was all set to put this in the car. It was absolutely the hardest time I have ever had trying to install a piece of...
Pros: Top safety ratings at a great price Cons: Low weight limit for rear-facing baby
I have an older model of this carseat, purchased the week that my son reached 20 pounds (&, therefore, grew out of his infant seat). We chose this model because we wanted a 5-point harness (rated best for safety), and the Century 1000 consistently...
You heard me right. This car seat was rated number one by Consumer Reports in their last ratings in January, 1999. It was rated above all others, including the cash cow of the moment, the Britax.
Pros: safety, ease Cons: rear faces only to 20 lbs, rear facing seatbelt routing
I purchased this seat for my daughter at 10 months old. I tried several convertible carseats before and after this one and though this seat has no bells or whistles it was the easiest to use. The seat I have found to be very universal, it fits in many...
Pros: Inexpensive and highly rated Cons: Plain and not as padded as others
I purchased this seat for a 2nd car and have been very pleased with it. It's very light and installs very tightly in seconds. The 5pt harness is very easy to use and the seat is very roomy. The fabric is not as fancy or plush as the more expensive...
