Its the higher end ones front/back facing 9 adjustments, it says 5 pound -50pound I have a carry one already, but I wanted to buy a better one like safer in a wreck.. and idk which one the convert one seems to be better for impact because it has foam head rests and the carry one is hard Like all of them are except Chico but I'd be paying 189.99 for a chicco carseat

Whatever they have at target they usually have the same one at walmart for cheaper. I would check the walmart website.

I'm pretty sure its a law in the USA that u need a carryone to leave the hospital cuz the convertible car seats are only good for children 20lbs n higher....I could b wrong but I wasn't allowed to leave without a carry seat

Carry one... It fits in a shopping cart snaps in stroller and just much easier cause baby is always sleeping. My son was huge and i used it til he was about 6-7 months. Then i got the convertable one from walmart for $40 and hes three and still uses it. Plus i used the stroller for a good yr and a half.

Well they are both good options. I only reccomend getting the best fit for your vehicle. Babies r us will carry out the displays to yiur car so you can see which fits best.

With my daughter I got the one that has a handle and snaps into base. My son I got one that he could grow and use. It was a pain in the butt. Only good thing about it is he is almost two and can still use it. So this Time around I am getting the carry one. So I would deff go w that :)

well the stationary has a covert handle, so it detaches from a base its just about 10-15 pounds heavier I was just wondering which one would be cheaper in the long run and will the hospital let her leave in a stationary one?? and how long do they usually stay in a carry one( how many months) my sisters kids are pretty big they were all out of the carry one by 2 months.. so I didn't know if it would be a waste of money if she will get to big fast I wont be taking her anywhere besides the pediatrician until shes about 1 1/2 months

The ones you can carry are better, cause if baby falls asleep it saves you disturbing them to get them out, you can just lift the carseat. Mine clips right into the pram i have so its great x

I looked into the older carpet that start out as newborn and go up to a bigger size. The ones I found didn't have a handle though and that was what made my decision lol plus I found a good deal on a caraway stroller combo for $125

I'd choose the carry one, mainly because you're gonna end IP carrying that baby everywhere, plus a diaper bag and maybe a purse too all while your carseat is stuck in the car lol
