what is the best carseat to get? being a ftm I'm really concerned about safety and want to make sure…

I asked a local officer witch one he thought would be best and he said the Graco brand has saved a few infants lives with some of the wreaks he's seen and he also said to look through the reviews of all the car seats to determine the right one

okay thank you! @brudd330

I have a graco SnugRide

we have a Graco also I'm not sure what kind exactly because we got it at a garage sale but it says signature series at the foot of it

ur welcome @mrsdoyle ☺

Chicco brand is one of the top. Britax is good too

We have a Graco classic connect at the moment, it's the lightest car seat on the market so that's what I love about it, but we're saving to buy the chicco keyfit

Graco Click connect 40

Almost all car seats are just as safe as each other, the big difference is which one is easiest to install CORRECTLY and get an appropriate fit. Which ever one you choose I highly suggest seeing if your local fire department has a trained specialist to teach you how to install and adjust. Then remember for rearfacing straps come from below the shoulders while forward facing are above, straps should be tight enough that you can't pinch at the shoulder, and the chest clip should be at arm pit level.
