We received a Graco Snug Ride 30 as a present from family friends this past weekend. It was the one off our registry, and I am very happy with it.
Now that we have an infant car seat, I was thinking about getting the next step up as well, like the ones that work for up 65 lbs. In that category, what do you like? STMs, what was your favorite/least favorite? FTMs, what did you decide on based on your research?

<Prior to that we owned an Eddie Bauer pos. I could never get the straps tight enough while my child was in the seat. I would wrap that sucker around my hand and pull with all of my might with both hands
