Hello!
I'm having a hard time deciding on an infant car seat for our first due in May. I've read the Consumer Reports reviews and the Safety 1st Designer 22 seems like a great option. It's available in Canada and goes up to 22 lb and 29" (my husband is quite tall). However, Sears Canada also offers a Quinny travel system and this car seat goes to 29". I'm wary about buying the Primo Viaggio b/c of it's short height guidelines and the Britax Companion has not arrived in my city yet. The other problem I have is that I don't like the Quinny stoller and can't buy the car seat on its own. Is the Safety 1st a good seat? I've also heard a lot of negative things about Graco's seats (recalls, fines, etc) and that their plastic isn't great for cold Canadian winters. All advice welcome!!
