Graco - TrioGrow SnugLock 3-in-1

I have a Graco Snuglock triogrow and we love it. The locking arm really makes me feel like my kiddo is super secure.

I got whichever version of this is at Costco, have used it since we took him home from the hospital with no regrets! He's 2 now.

I have the graco 3-1-was the lowest cost from a brand I trusted, and all the way down to infant sizes when we needed a car seat for our second vehicle and didn't have time to wait for a second base to arrive from Amazon. The rotating is definitely nice I'm sure, but I would view it as more of an accessibility feature. Definitely not a requirement at all for the average person. Could likely make a massive difference for individuals with mobility disabilities. On my end I don't think it would change much. Exit to add: Make sure if you get a rotating seat is locked into place when driving even if your child is not in it! Huge safety thing!

We have the Graco 3 in 1 and the Graco 4 in 1. Neither rotate, both go up to a booster seat. I like them both. The 3 in 1 has an easy to release latch, you just press buttons. The 4 in 1 is regular latch that you have to press down the latch part to release. I don't have others so can't compare. But I like our car seats

We put a Grayco 3 in 1 in the third row forward facing and use the seatbelt. We fold down the other two 3rd row seats and that’s where our dog sits in his car kennel when we go on trips. We have a rear facing infant and rear facing toddler in the middle captains seats. The 3rd row kid buckles herself and I just reach back to tighten. Works for us.

My kindergartner has a convertible car seat. She is in the booster configuration, which is a high back booster. We transitioned her a little earlier than we intended because the 5point was starting to trigger her car sickness more as she grew. Our second car, we have Graco booster for the rare times both kids have to be different places.
