Lightweight and comfy infant seat
on March 2, 2020
Posted by: NashMom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant car seat! This infant seat is lightweight and so easy to use with the Graco Click system. It snaps easily into the carseat base, as well as into our Graco stroller. We had an earlier model of this seat for our first daughter and love the upgrades this model offers, including a comfy, padded infant head/body support. The canopy is easy to use and the entire seat is clearly well made and durable.

Easy to use & Portable
on March 2, 2020
Posted by: Bjohnston24
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to receive this car seat and base as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel to use with my fourth baby born in February. I had the following requirements for a car seat: easy to get in and out of the car, light enough to carry around for quick school drop offs and secure for infant and larger baby. The SnugRide 35 LX car seat has fit all of our needs nicely. My husband was able to install the adjustable base using our car’s anchor system quickly and easily. The car seat is light enough to carry around while dropping my older children off at their schools. It’s very easy to pop on and off the base. The baby feels secure with the included infant headrest and the chest clips and latch are both easy to clip and i clip. Great product! I just bought the matching Graco car seat carrier for longer trips. I’m looking forward to its arrival to see how the two products work together. In short, great car seat!

All you need

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this infant car seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Upon taking it out of the box I was just so surprised of how light it was even with the base attached. It was very simple to install and although I didn’t need to adjust the base; I was glad it had the option to do so should I use in a car that needed a different height. It was real easy too. I could adjust the base level even using one hand if needed. Both the base and the car seat itself was so light and easy to maneuver even one handed.

Sturdy, Lightweight, and Easy
on March 2, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Graco SnugRide 35 Lite LX infant car seat is very light, sturdy, and easy to install. Getting the car seat in and out of the car is simple and painless. It attaches and detaches easily, making the transition to and from the car effortless. The clicking sound is a little loud, but my newborn does not seem to mind it, and continues to sleep peacefully. (She typically decides to wake up when I’m getting into bed or sitting down to eat.)
The car seat handle is safe to use in the car in any locked position. I leave it up which makes is very easy to carry in and out of the car. I don’t have a stroller compatible with this car seat, so I just carry the car seat from the car. If it wasn’t so lightweight, this would be a lot harder.
The base installs with either a lap belt or latch. I found the lap belt to be more secure as I had a harder time tightening the base with the latch. The base does not have a belt lock-off like some other models, so your seat belts must be able to retract and lock. I also installed the car seat with just the lap belt (no base) and it was very simple, just a little more complicated for getting in and out since you must undo the seat belt every time, but it’s a great option when traveling/flying.
The adjustable recline and level indicator give me peace of mind that the car seat is in the correct position for my five-week-old daughter. The level indicator clearly shows how to position the seat correctly.
The newborn insert is nice, but the head padding is in an awkward position for my newborn. I wish it was a little more padded. Also, the sunshade is flimsy and gets stuck when I pull it back.
Overall, this is a great car seat, especially if you don’t want to feel like your walk from the car to the house is the Arnold Schwarzenegger bicep workout. Now I just need to convince my husband that we have space in our two-bedroom for a compatible stroller! Thank you, Stellar Product Testing Panel, for allowing me to test and review this car seat.

Simple and Secure
on March 3, 2020
Posted by: KrystleSheena
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The SnugRide 35 Lite LX Infant Car Seat is probably one of the best infant car seats I've ever used. The design is very parent friendly, and lightweight. The pattern that I have (Brody Fashion) is cute and gender neutral. The carseat and base were both super easy to install. I really like the adjustability of the base, allowing the angle of the car seat to grow with the baby, making it more versatile. My favorite feature of the car seat and base combo is the level indicator on the base. It gave me reassurance that the base was installed properly. With this being my 3rd child and having previous experiences with different car seat brands, you can absolutely feel the difference in quality versus others, with Graco improving over the years. The simplicity of the installation is what really sold me though. I would highly recommend this car seat and base combo to other parents. Although I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel, I would definitely have bought this product on my own. That's how much I love it. It was a win-win in my book.

Economical Option
on March 3, 2020
Posted by: Chessna13
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this car seat to test as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I used this infant carrier for my baby boy, who is now 3 weeks old. My first impression with this carrier was that the materials feel really cheap compared to most other car seats I have seen, including the Graco infant carrier that I used with my daughter who is now 2. The carrier is very lightweight and easy to carry around, possibly partly because of the cheaper materials they used. For the most part, I don't mind that they seemed to cut some costs without compromising safety. However, I like that most carriers have a rubber grip on the handle, because they feel a little nicer. I struggle with joint pain in my hands, so I would really appreciate a little padding of some sort to protect those sore joints.
I liked that this car seat was easy to get in and out of my car. I really like the Click Connect system, and it is compatible with my stroller, so it is easy to transfer baby from the car to the stroller without having to take him out of the seat and wake him up. The car seat is not too difficult to install. The base just clips to the LATCH anchor system in your car. The hardest part is tightening the strap properly (you have to pull really hard) without messing up the leveling, but once the base is installed properly, it's a breeze getting the carrier in and out of the base.
My favorite thing about this base is the adjustable head cushion. I love that it cradles my son's head nicely and keeps it from slumping to the side or forward, and it can move as he grows. Overall, it seems like a good option for caregivers who don't want to spend much on an infant carrier car seat. It does the job well enough.

Compact and light weight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This car seat is light weight and compact. It is perfect in my husbands truck where there is less space in the back seat. It was very easy to install. Its simple to use and my 2 month old sits comfortably in it. Overall it’s a great seat! (I received this product from the Stellar Product Testing Panel)

Awesome seat!
on March 4, 2020
Posted by: Briemalt
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were given this seat to test as part of the Stella Panel, and when we discovered we were receiving it we were thrilled. Nothing beats the ease of a Graco seat and this seat was no exception. It’s easy to carry, easy to clean, easy to connect to the base or the stroller, just EASY! As a mom of multiple children this seat makes my life a littles easier! It’s not bulky, and the fabric on it is awesome!
