This carseat is one that my wife labored over what to by for the longest time. We went from baby store to baby store looking at different companies carseats and strollers. This is one that we finally both agreed on. Mainly because we liked the sturdiness of the stroller and the car seat could be carried by itself, strapped in without a base, use an easy load base, and you could put the carseat in the stroller. The carseat is compatible as well with some of Graco's other bases so if you have to buy a second base (like we did) then it isn't too hard to track one down. The assembly of the stroller wasn't too difficult and it only took a short amount of time. One of the neat features of Graco's seats (and others may have this too) is that there is a strap at the base of the seat that you can use to secure the infant in the seat. Some of the cheaper carseats we looked at it was a pain to loosen the straps enough to remove an infant. The Graco seats on the other hand have a nifty little release lever and you hold that puppy down and pull on the shoulder straps and you can remove your child easily. The carseat is really easy to remove and place into the car base. There is a lever on the back of the seat itself and you just pull the lever and lift the seat out of the base. The stroller is probably my favorite thing about the package. It compacts down to an easy, carriable stroller and you can put this in most trunks. Our daughter is now 6 months and we actually can put her in the stroller without using the carseat and she is secured by shoulder straps, waist straps, and a strap that comes up between the legs. Its got alot of storage for cups, diaper bags, and other accessories you might want to cart around. And it is easy to maneuver around. All in all we're both very happy with this carseat and package and I would recommend it to any parent looking for a good, decently priced seat.
