I loved mine. It was do much easier going in a d out of the house in yucky weather.
My kids slept great in them too.
auto correct hates me
Because both my girls hated them with the passion of a thousand burning suns.
I'm 5'1", an infant seat takes me out at the knees when I try to walk with it. I don't like using them outside the car so to me, they're not worth it.
One more thing to buy; one more thing to lug. UGH. I did end up using one this time because of a seating arrangement issue in my car. Plus the base to seat connection is just another potential failure point... (That's why when I HAD to get one I got an Aton with a metal-to-metal connection.) Oh, and refluxy babies often don't do well in them, and I've had two of those.
However, what I mostly hate is the way I see them overused. People keep babies in them ALL THE TIME and it's not healthy.
I do think they have their purposes, but if you aren't someone who NEEDS it for one of those purposes (winter loading, a particular loading issue like we had, frequent travel, etc...) they aren't NECESSARY and I hate that parents spend a ton of money on a seat that won't last- and then they want to save money so the 11 month old goes straight in a combination seat... I wish it was more clear that the bucket is not a NEED it's a convenience thing, and that babies shouldn't be in it out of the car as much as possible.
