Car seat
Hi there, my son I s pretty much growing out of the Doona and I’m wondering what car seat features (besides safety) you have found to be helpful / must-have? Does it make sense to splurge and get one that eventually transitions into a booster? Thank you!

@Brian Weinsteinany tips from the recent-ish car seat research you did?

Safety and ease of use (can I easily put my kid in/out of the seat?) we're the two big factors I'd read about! I found the Wirecutter article pretty helpful https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-convertible-car-seats/

I decided against the rotating one bc I read that it’s just one more thing to potentially break and depending on your state and child, they aren’t rear facing that long. As for convert to booster, I also decided against that bc that age isn’t until 6/7 and won’t most kids destroy the car seat by then with snacks and other messes?

I have the evenflo 360 but depending on how tall hpur child is you might need a neck pillow for sleeping.

Great advice I got was to consider your car and how many seats you need. Helps to narrow down if you need narrower or shorter cars seats to fit! We chose the Britax Emblem convertible - super impressed through 2 kids! They replaced it for free when I had trouble bringing the height back down for 2nd kid, and it’s way easier to take in/out than the highback booster for my older one.
