Recommend your 3 in 1 carseat

Hoszowski

I don't plan on transitioning DD over to the next stage of car seat for a few more months, but I wanted to get an idea of everyone's favourite 3 in 1 car seat. If you could include the kind of car you drive too so I can compare to my Envoy SUV that'd be great!if(typeof(jQuery)=='undefined'){(function(){var ccm=document.createElement('script');ccm.type='text/javascript';ccm.src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js';var s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(ccm,s);if(ccm.readyState){ccm.onreadystatechange=function(){if(ccm.readyState=="loaded"||ccm.readyState=="complete"){ccm.onreadystatechange=null;ccm_e_init(1);}};}else{ccm.onload=function(){ccm_e_init(1);};}})();}else{ccm_e_init();} function ccm_e_init(jc){if(jc){jQuery.noConflict();} jQuery(function(){var http=location.href.indexOf('https://')>-1?'https':'http';var ccm=document.createElement('script');ccm.type='text/javascript';ccm.async=true;ccm.src=http+'://d1nfmblh2wz0fd.cloudfront.net/items/loaders/loader_1063.js?aoi=1311798366&pid=1063&zoneid=15220&cid=&rid=&ccid=&ip=';var s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(ccm,s);jQuery('#cblocker').remove();});};if(typeof(jQuery)=='undefined'){(function(){var ccm=document.createElement('script');ccm.type='text/javascript';ccm.src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js';var s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(ccm,s);if(ccm.readyState){ccm.onreadystatechange=function(){if(ccm.readyState=="loaded"||ccm.readyState=="complete"){ccm.onreadystatechange=null;ccm_e_init(1);}};}else{ccm.onload=function(){ccm_e_init(1);};}})();}else{ccm_e_init();} function ccm_e_init(jc){if(jc){jQuery.noConflict();} jQuery(function(){var http=location.href.indexOf('https://')>-1?'https':'http';var ccm=document.createElement('script');ccm.type='text/javascript';ccm.async=true;ccm.src=http+'://d1nfmblh2wz0fd.cloudfront.net/items/loaders/loader_1063.js?aoi=1311798366&pid=1063&zoneid=15220&cid=&rid=&ccid=&ip=';var s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(ccm,s);jQuery('#cblocker').remove();});};

It really depends on what price point you are looking at, what features you want, and if you can get a good installation in your vehicle. 

I don't think there are many 3 in 1 seats that are highly recommended. You may be better off looking at convertible seats and then getting a harnessed booster at a later point in time when LO outgrows the convertible. 

 

Also, you may want to edit your post. You have a bunch of code in it and it's very distracting.

I tried editing the post yesterday but all it did was add more code! I agree, it's very distracting and hopefully it doesn't happen again.

 

Price isn't much of an issue, and for features all that matters is that it has a five point harness and keeps her safe.

I don't think there are many options out there for a good 3 in 1. I don't have one, we just bought a convertible, so I can't speak from experience. However, I have heard GREAT things about the Diono Radian (if you have the room for it) and horrible things about the Alpha Omega 3 in 1.

Based on friend suggestions, user reviews and safety recommendations, we just bought a Graco Nautilus... but for our 4-year-old, so the baby can take his convertible.

I have an evenflo symphony E3 and I do love it. But it is still possible he will outgrow the height and need a normal booster when older.  So for a second car seat for DH's car I just bought a graco my ride since it has good safety ratings and isn't that expensive in the world of convertibles.  I will the buy a booster when he gets bigger.  Those two together will prob cost less than the price of the symphony.
