We all know that the SS1/SR Bases are NOT interchangable per Graco CS and instruction. So thats what we tell people.
Well, they are a little more compatable than I thought in a misleading way.
I put the SS1 in the Safeseat Infant Seat in the Snugride Base and there was an audible snap.
From a quick glance it looks like it fits.
Then I lift up on the handle and notice that the plastic hook in the back is snaped in BUT the front is completely loose.
This is where the hook in the red plastic hook in the back snaped and is locked.
This is where the two metal rings in the front do NOT lock; the metal rings that in a wreck hold the entire infant seat in the base.
So my point is, now from on we say they are not interchangable, we might want add that it will seem like they snap together but will fail in a crash.
(Yes, I had alot of time on my hands tonight )
