About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

Great car seat5
This seat works great with our 3 1/2 year old. He's almost ready to use it without the back, but right now, this works good. Very easy to just pull the seatbelt across and click it in.

Problem Sleeping3
The main problem I have with this product is the fact that my son slumps all the way over when he falls asleep. It's the most frustrating thing because it doesn't make me feel okay that he's safe in the seat. I've tried making sure the seat belt is locked to hold him but he still falls right over and I constantly have to reach back and push him up. Also, the cup holders are not that deep to prevent cups from falling out. Also complains about his bottom hurting and he's not sitting on anything except the seat.

Excellent Chair5
Daughter loves it.Took 2 minutes to put together then your ready to go.Plus same chair at walmart was $60,was only $50 on here plus free shipping,can't get anymore convinent then that.

Caution!2
I have purchased the Graco Comfort Sport based on the reviews on Amazon and the generally good crash test ratings. We also own a Britax Roundabout (our primary car seat) installed in a Volvo. The plan was to have the Graco as a second car seat in my BMW. Our child is a little over 20lb. and has outgrown the infant seat, thus we decided to buy convertible car seats. For maximum safety, it is recommended to keep your child rear facing as long as possible (and the weight limit on the Graco for this is 30lb., on the Britax it's 35lb.). Upon installation of the Graco, I was really shocked at how poorely a fit this car seat is in the rear facing position. Since the center rear seat is by far the safest, and preferred, I tried installing the Graco with the seat belt option (since most cars have no latch connectors for the center seat). Upon reading the manual and trying the installation, I was shocked to discover that the Graco has no seat belt cutoff (unlike many other car seats). As such, the car seat installation primarily depends on the locking feature of the automatic seat belt (which you will never get as tight as needed). After proper installation in rear facing position, I pulled the seat belt as tight as I could (I am 6 ft, 180lb.), and yet I could pull the seat side to side several inches, downright scary. Keep in mind that most car seats in a rear facing installation will not be very tight, since there is no side hugging the back of the seat (unlike in a forward seating position). The manual also mentioned several times that you MUST NOT use the tether strap in the rear-facing position. After some research on the web, I found out that only Britax and the Radian car seats are approved to use a tether strap in the rear-facing position. For all other car seats, it says it must not be used under any circumstances. When installing the Britax, only after the tether was connected tightly, I felt that the seat was really solidly installed.
I then bit the bullet and wanted to install the Graco in a forward facing position. Together with the tether strap, that allows for a somewhat solid installation, but I am still bummed by the non-existant seat belt lockoffs. Also, the seat is pretty wide and (compared to the Britax Roundabout) and makes sitting next to it (when installed in the center seat) extremely cumbersome, even installed in a pretty spacious 5 series BMW.
In general, I would not recommend this car seat due to the installation difficulty and possibility of not being able to achieve a solid fit. Also, keep in mind that you should keep your kid in the CENTER rear seat, and rear-facing as long as possible. The center seat is best since it will protect your child in a collision from the side. The rear-facing position is ideal since most collisions are happening frontal, and while you might merely get some whiplash, a forward-facing child might occur spinal injury causing death. As a result, I would not recommend any car seat but the Britax or Sunshine Radian seats.

Good car seat but the item looks like an open-box3
Sold by Amazon.com, listed as brand new item. Thing is the car seat looks like an open-box item. It is simply put in the box without any protection or any plastic wrap. Anyway, my daughter seems enjoy her new car seat.

Excellent car seat!5
I just bought this car seat a few weeks ago from Amazon and I love it. Originally I bought the Graco Nautilus car seat because of all the great reviews. It had a lot of nice features, but my little boy just didn't like it. He cried every time he got in it. With this car seat it is so comfy and roomy for him and he really likes riding in it. It sits higher than other car seats so he can see out of the window better and there is a lot of padding to make it comfortable. It also has sides that he can lean his head on easily to go to sleep. I don't have the latch system in my car, but it was very easy to install and very stable. I also really love the color. It is very neutral and looks even better than the picture. The cover comes off very easily to wash. Overall I think this carseat is wonderful and I highly recommend it.

Customer Reviews

must have5
This is a must have if you frequently travel with 2 different cars! It is difficult to remove the base if you using the latch system, so for the cost, it really works better to buy this base for use in your second vehicle!

A must have!5
Loved it so much for the convenience that we bought another one for our friends that are expecting a baby. Makes it so much easier to just snap in place. Feels more secure than just the seat belt

A must have5
The SnugRide is a wonderful infant car seat, allowing for securing the child in the seat within the comfort of air-conditioning or indoor heat, depending on the season. It pops right into the base in seconds, allowing for getting the child in the car quickly to avoid prolonged exposure to the weather. If you own a Graco SnugRide and have 2 cars, it also really comes in handy to have an extra base. Not all SnugRides have the same base color, so be sure to note which color the plastic is on the carseat before choosing the color for the extra base unit.
