Safety 1st onBoard 35 Infant Car Seat - Proton Offer by: BabyEarth Price: USD 129.95

When you are looking to buy the Safety 1^st Onboard Infant car seat, be advised that there are two models with very different weight limits – the basic, which is good to 22lbs, and the Onboard 35, which is good until 35 pounds. The Onboard 35 costs a little bit more. This review is of just the basic Safety 1^st Onboard Infant car seat.

The parents that this seat will really appeal to are those who have a premature baby or expecting twins or multiples, who usually have a lower birth weight. It has a specially designed harness system for infants 4-11lbs, which is a feature found on few, if any, other car seats. This is a huge bonus for users who find that their little babies just don’t look comfortable or secure in other infant carriers. Some consumers have had this seat recommended by nurses in the NICU for their preemie babies. Most people say that their babies seem comfortable in this car seat.

The Safety 1^st Onboard infant carrier also comes with a stay-in-car base, which is great for transporting your baby to and from the car when they are finally sleeping! In fact, it is essential for those parents who find the only way to calm a fussy baby is to take them for a spin in the car!

The light weight of this seat also means it is a good option for parents who need to transfer the car seat from vehicle to vehicle.

Safety 1^st also claims this seat has 17% more leg room than most other infant carriers…a great thing if you have a baby with long legs!

One problem that has been reported is that some people find the buckle a bit difficult to do up, but this is probably something that you will get better at with experience. As a good point, this is an easy seat to clean.

This is a good seat, therefore, if you have a low birth weight infant. It does have a low maximum weight, however, so you may also want to consider the upgraded version of the Safety 1^st Onboard 35 Infant car seat, which is good until 35lbs.
