personally we love the britax carseats, we have had the roundabout marathon regent and now frontier. i have two boys, 5 and 2, who were big boys while babies. i loved the easy install with LATCH and how extremely sturdy they were once installed properly. we had evenflo and graco on different occasions for my husbands truck for the occasional use, but ended up buying britax seats to replace them. so we have four different britax seats now. i would recommend the marathon for now for your little one, it is rated up to 65 pounds and is very comfortable for sleeping if they fall asleep, next would be the frontier which i love the improvements they have made on the booster/convertible regent, it is rated up to 100 pounds with lap shoulder belt and you can use the 5 pt harness up to 85 pounds, highest rating out there!! must be able to check out the seats if you have access to them to see if what will fit in your car and how your child fits into the seat as well. once you decide, REGISTER the seat, regardless of which brand you choose so you can be notified of any recalls, good luck choosing, there are a lot out there!

Hi, our baby was 9 months old when we got the seat, and she even seems too small for it....there are long plastic guides on the shoulder straps that i think would be too long for an infant...that's my 2 cents... i would get an infant car seat - it can get heavy but the ease of transporting the sleeping baby is well worth carrying it.Good luck!

I think it depends on how big your baby is. My 4 month old is 18 lbs., so we use this in our Uppababy regular seat for him and he is very comfortable. He was a little cramped in the carseat with adapter set-up. My daughter was 11 lbs at 3 months and didn't need more room until she was older and could sit up by herself pretty well. So, I'd say wait until you know what size baby you have.

My graco size for me is currently in a captain chair of a honda odyssey. Try going to the facebook page carseats for the littles they have people on there whom will know!

Any infant seat would work. I used a Chicco. The infant seats don't snap into place. There is an attachable "sling" (for lack of a better description) that the seat sits on and then you can buckle it in with a seat belt. It's really sturdy. My older kids would constantly bump it and the infant seat didn't budge!

Oh wait sorry. It comes with the stroller piece. I am not sure about the carseat. I never used it as such.

they are not designed for baby's carseat. They do recline real low so you could probably get away with putting a 4 mo in .

You have to do what you feel is safest for your little one. That being said, the seats do lean back as far as you want them to. I think a 5 month old would be just fine. I'm not sure what model year I have. We bought it new in January of 2014. I love it even more now than when I wrote the original review.

I highly recommend also buying the Graco SnugRider Elite Car Seat Carrier for use in stores. I got mine for $60 on an Amazon warehouse deal and it was a great investment.

i didn't use a bassinet, i used a maxi cosi car seat and it worked great till 10 months when she was too long. i felt it kept her more supported than a bassinet.

I would go to a baby store that has an assembled stroller in stock and let the clerk know you want to buy a double, but you have to make sure it will fit in your trunk first. Both the local Buy Buy Baby and Babies R Us, let me try a couple of strollers in the trunk of my Fit and my sister's PT.

Has anyone found something similar that will work with the Britax B Safe Carseats (especially in price)? We've got twins on the way and I'd rather get something like the Britax B-Agile double for long-term use, but it only holds one car seat. Can't see that long-term, the babies/toddlers would enjoy the front-back configuration of the B-Ready stroller, especially being the same age and all . . .

I highly recommend two of them, if you have two kids. My daughter was 18 months when she started riding one. I got two so I could ride with her. Sometimes we ride on one together. Lots of fun, great little car! She used her feet to push off at first, but after a little riding, she used the steering wheel to wiggle and move. Have fun!

My baby hates the car seat and the bassinet. I used this snugseat when she was 2 months for my uppababy vista and she loves it. I say give it a try. Every baby is different.

I know that it seems that most people do not keep their children rear facing until at least 40 pounds, but in actuality extended rear facing is much, much, much safer for your child. Other countries keep children rear facing until age four and have much lower rates of child mortality in car crashes. Should you be interested in extended rear facing, I would check out the Diano Radian and the Clek Foonf. If your child is not tall, the Britax Advocate is another great choice. If you are set on turning your son around, I will say that we have this seat and absolutely love it. We use it for our almost 6 year old daughter and she is very comfortable in it. The seat installs like a dream and is very solid. It's heavy though, so I wouldn't choose it if you need to move it a lot. Hope this helps!
