Our daughter outgrew her infant carrier car seat at 6 months, and after spending a significant amount of $ on the first seat I was reluctant to pay upwards of $200 or even $300 for the next seat. After reading many, many reviews for various convertible car seats and checking Consumer Reports for safety ratings I decided to purchase the Cosco Scenra, and I am glad I did!

I recently purchased this car seat for my daughter who has outgrown the seat that came with her travel system. Because we will have to buy a car seat for both of our cars, we went with this one mostly due to the great price (purchased at a local store for $39). The color is very cute - true to the picture. The cup holder is detachable (we actually haven't put hers on yet).

I am glad we made this purchase!
