Snugli buckle?

So today while I was at BBB I was looking at a Snugli car seat. It had the same chest clip as the evenflo ones and so I think they are affiliated? Anyway, it looked kind of like the recalled Graco buckles and when I tried to open it It was really difficult -- like, it kind of gave me a panicky feeling it was so difficult and I broke a nail in the process.

Does this manufacturer use the same buckle? If so, why isn't it being recalled too?

Snugli seats are re-branded Evenflo seats. Yes, it has the same buckle as Graco, but Evenflo hasn't recalled it. They just stopped using it and went back to their own buckle. You open it by pushing at the top of the button where the little dimple is, not in the middle.

I have no idea if Evenflo would send a new buckle if you called them. I think it's worth asking if you're interested in the seat.

Yes snugli is evenflo & evenflo uses the same Graco buckle. I'm not sure why no recall she been issued for evenflo seats but evenflo will replace sticky buckles if you contact them
