Base wouldn't stay down and the entire front of the base kept lifting up!

It’s very easy to install and overall it’s very comfortable.. satisfied with the quality and design..

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Safety 1st Onboard LT Infant Car Seat is very lightweight, simple, and functional. The gray and black design is simple and nice looking. It’s not luxurious but very functional. The installation process takes a little work. The base has hooks rather than a latch system. If you plan to move the base frequently, then I would recommend getting the version of this with the latch system. It takes a lot of muscle to get it tight. If you have leather seats, it tends to move more as well. Adjusting the straps is super easy and straight forward. By far I liked how lightweight this seat was. My baby is pushing 22 lbs and harder to carry in other car seats compared to this one. He seemed comfortable enough but the straps do not have any cushioning which rub slightly on his neck. If you’re needing a car seat to travel with or in a second vehicle, this is a great lightweight option. Just take note of the base system and perhaps update to a latch system if you need. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this seat to test and review!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first impression out of the box was that the car seat has beautiful fabric. The padded insert is very plush and a perfect fit right from birth. As a mom of two, I need something easy and convenient. Installation was very easy and I love that you have the option to use a seat belt or latch connectors. The car seat is very light weight which is a must for me since I always have my hands and arms full. Overall my baby is comfortable and loves sitting in her car seat. Also most importantly he is safe! Thank you Safety 1st and Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this wonderful infant car seat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this infant car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My first impressions were that it’s a standard infant car seat, but surprisingly light weight. I was almost concerned it felt cheap with how light it was. However, after looking it over and more importantly using it, I feel good in saying it’s a durable and safe car seat. I so appreciate the lightness of this car seat when toting around a baby. I think they got the shape of the car seat perfect. My little one seems quite comfortable in this seat. I have seven children and I’ve tested my fair share of car seats and some are just the wrong slope and shape for babies comfort. I was very impressed with the material of the car seat. It’s very soft and cushy and includes removable newborn inserts. I can already attest that the material spot cleans nicely and is easy to remove and replace for a full wash. I love the gender neutral color. It has a retractable canopy for shade. I love the coverage of the canopy, although I’d note that it clicks loudly when opening and closing. It has standard buckles that are simple to use and adjust. The handle is perfect for carrying by hand or on my arm. The car seat base is lightweight as well and adjustable to get the right fit in your car. The base was simple to install with clear instructions with visuals that are on the base. The clips have nice storage on the base when not in use and have the best buttons to adjust the clips. If you’ve ever installed a car seat base you know not all car seats clips are easy to adjust! Overall, I would purchase this car seat. It’s a great car seat for a great price. Most importantly, I felt my baby was safe and comfortable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you to the Stellar Panel for allowing me to test this car seat. It is extremely lightweight, very sturdy and easy to latch into the base. It has a nice adjustable sunshade with good coverage. The infant car seat comes completely assembled making the installation particularly easy. Includes lots of different baby inserts allowing all size children to sit comfortably and safely!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel to try out for my little one. I love the look and how light weight it is! I have 2 that I have to carry up and down stairs so this seat has made it easier since it is lighter than my previous seat. It was very easy to install and take in and out of my vehicle. My little one seems comfortable with the seat and the padding and can grow with the seat before having to move to the next seat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I typically avoid writing negative reviews, but I was quite disappointed with this product. The quality of materials made me question the safety of this device. I did not feel comfortable using this car seat, as I doubted it would adequately protect my baby in an accident. The materials felt very flimsy; the side supports wiggled easily and seemed cheaply constructed. The pull-over shade was particularly frustrating—it would get stuck every time I tried to cover my baby's eyes from the sun with one hand. I had to set the car seat down and use both hands to pull the shade down evenly, which is not practical for a busy mom. Additionally, the fabric was partially see-through, which added to my concerns. While my infant did not seem uncomfortable in the car seat, and the seatbelt was of decent quality, these positives did not outweigh the negatives. I appreciated the lightweight design and the quality of the straps, but I would much prefer a heavier car seat with a sturdier foundation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was disappointed with this car seat right off the bat, in pulling it out of the box it seemed that the connection between the car seat and the base was not great. I pulled it out and tested to see if it just wasn’t connected all the way; but it was. When the car seat is “locked” on the base it still MOVES up and down a half inch to an inch, and rattles up and down. This does not seem safe to me at all. Because of this I did not feel good about putting my infant in this seat in the car and leaving the driveway. Some other things that were disappointing, but not unsafe were how LOUD it is to adjust the sunshade. I will pull a sunshade more closed if my baby falls asleep, but if I were to do that on this one it would wake the baby. The car seat also didn’t seem very padded or comfy, and the material seemed low quality. And just as a personal preference of mine, I don’t like that it would take two hands to adjust the bar. I have used another well known brands infant car seat that safely clicks into and stays on the base, has a smooth and quiet sunshade, is comfortable for my baby and only needs one hand to adjust the bar. I would not choose this Safety 1st car seat, and would not recommend to friends or family, mainly due to the safety issues of not staying well on the base. My photos included show how much the car seat comes out of the base when “locked” onto it. (I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this car seat through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This car seat is extremely lightweight. I was absolutely floored when I picked up the box off my front porch when it arrived. I thought for sure they sent an empty box and forgot to pack the car seat. That is the biggest pro for me about this car seat. With other car seats I have used, I avoid bringing them inside because they’re so heavy and bulky. This one is so easy to tote around. I love how compact it is. It can fit nicely in my row at church, and next to me at a restaurant, which I love. The installation was simple and very basic. Within minutes I had the base installed in my car and the straps adjusted to fit my baby. After two kids, I have learned that car seats with all the bells and whistles aren’t necessary and that I just need the easiest set up and to be able to put my kid in quick. This car seat allows me to do just that. The car seat comes with an infant insert to cradle smaller babies. On the other hand, the base of the car seat is not so compact. It seems really long. It still fit in my Toyota Rav 4 just fine, I just didn’t expect it to take as much space. I will attach a photo for reference.
