If anyone knows on the show Full House what kind of car seats were used for Nicky and Alex? I know they also functioned as swings and later on in the episode they switched to a different kind of car seat. I'll post a link of the video whey they bring the twins home. I think it's graco but I want to know what model. I'm just curious. :love:

Are those actually carseats? Or just carriers? They aren't harnessed in at all, and I can't see behind them to see if there IS a harness... My mom said when I was a baby, the carseats didn't carry (like our infant buckets). You had a carseat, and then a carrier with a handle.

They had carseats that were Century carseat carriers and detachable bases. These are the swing/ carriers not meant to be car seats.

Those are the carriers for the swing(and that swing has at least one recall on it too, IIRC) not for use in the car.

Maybe what they brought them home in wasn't the swing because in this episode you can see the swings in the background and in a way they look similar.

But then in the next episode they have a different car seat so I'm a bit confused by that. But they have cute baby stuff...plus those babies are adorable!

OMG I remember that episode and I was probably like 7 when I saw it. :p

But yeah, that's why some people still call infant seats "carriers", because they used to only BE carriers. :) My sister had her first baby in January and I had to explain to her that the "carrier" on her registry was in fact a carseat, not just something to carry the baby in. (And she already had a convertible, so she didn't really need the infant seat too.)

The first link is a carrier. Looks a lot like the once that was used with a swing and also had a bassinet that you could use.

Yep it was a Graco 3 in 1 swing. I had it for DS1 back in 1998. The bassinett was useless. DS would just roll back and forth as it swung and get mad lol. I loved the swing though and how it was a carrier and a seat with a tray.

I had that swing/carrier for my dd who was born in 93. LOVED it! Was a great swing and we would take the carrier part off and take it to restaurants and such for her to sit in. She even used it as a high chair to eat in until she actually had a high chair. She had a convertible from birth so it was nice to have something to put her in when we were out to eat. Hey, I was only 22....didnt think to look for anything else on the market....besides..we were very poor lol
