How to Choose the Best Car Seat Newborn

The best car seat newborn is one that is compliant with federal safety standards, fits your vehicle, comes with useful extras (like turning into a stroller) and works with your budget. It's also important to ensure that the infant car seat can be inserted into and out of your car without difficulty especially if you frequently switch between taxis or trips in rental cars and grandparents vehicles.

Safety

A high-quality car seat will come with additional features that go above and beyond safety standards of the federal government. They include padded inserts for the head and shoulders and air-repellent fabrics to keep them cool when driving in hot temperatures.

Another crucial safety aspect is the ease to install and use the seat. In the ideal scenario, you'll be able to snap it in place with minimum effort and with clear indicators that it's secure, level, and positioned properly.

You can find features that can aid in this process like belt guides and built-in lockoffs to help you align the car seat to your car's seatbelt. It is also important to avoid buying used car seats, as they might not have been crash-tested or have been in an accident, and could not protect your child. If you are forced to purchase a used car seat, ensure that it has an expiration date and that the seller is not an individual or a private party who does not have proof of ownership.

One other thing to keep in your mind is to keep your child in the car seat for up to two hours per day, unless they're in a lying-flat position. This will reduce strain on the spine of your child and ensure that they are able to breath regularly.

Selecting a car seat for your infant is a major investment, therefore you'll need to make sure that it has a long lifespan. Find one that's designed to adapt with your child that will last through the toddler years and on into the teenage years. One of the ones our parents loved was the Axkid One i-Size that is suitable for children from birth and is able to be used up to 7 years.

The Nuna pipa aire rx is another option that can be used for a lengthy time. It can rotate 360 degrees, which means you can switch it from front-facing to rear-facing as your child grows. It's also among the most lightweight car seats on the market, weighing less than nine pounds. It's an excellent choice for parents who need to move their child frequently between cars or plan to use it for taxi rides, holiday fly-drives and trips with grandparents.

Comfort

A quality infant car seat will be comfortable for your child, both when they are in the seat and when you install it. Find straps that are padded to fit comfortably around their shoulders, and for plush material that feels comfortable on their stomachs. This is especially important if you plan to use the seat for a long duration.

The most effective car seat for infants is also simple to use. Some have premium LATCH connectors that feature a SuperCinch force multiplier and tightener. Others come with spring-loaded leveling legs as well as belt paths that make installing without a base much easier than ever. Other features let you adjust the height of the headrest and harness, which is important as your child grows.

One example is the Cosatto All in All Rotate, which our parent testers gave a 10/10 for ease of use. It comes with an easy-to-use interface and an easy-to-adjust, no-rethread harness and also recline lock indicators and 360-degree rotation. You can easily switch your child's position from front-facing to rear-facing as they grow without having to remove and replace the seat.

Nuna Pipa Aire Rx is a similar example. Our testers who were parents loved it for its ease of use simple and adaptability. Its cushioned shoulder straps and headrest are designed to accommodate the head of your baby and comes with pillows that are soft for your comfort. It can be used as an rear-facing car seat until your baby hits the max height or weight limit, and it converts into a stroller without the need for a separate adapter.

A good infant car seats car seat is sturdy and some even come with a warranty. Find a seat that has robust materials and plenty of padding to protect your baby from accidents and the steel frame that can absorb the force of impact and a "crumple zone" to prevent damage. It must be easy to clean, as accidents are sure to happen with children. To simplify cleaning, look for a car seat with removable covers and pads that can be washed in the machine.

Easy to Use

It is essential that a car seat be easy to install and use, particularly if it will be used in multiple vehicles periodically. Look for features such as an easy-release buckle, an indicator that shows the state of the latch system (e.g., green for locked) and a simple-to-read manual to make it as stress-free as possible.

Design

Car seat designs are as varied as the vehicles they're placed in. While some parents choose to not use infant car seats to opt for a convertible model, most new moms want something that will continue to grow with their child into toddlerhood. The most versatile option is an all-in one baby car seat that allows you to switch between rear facing infant car seat-facing and forward-facing. It typically has a greater weight and height limit, and it is often used as a booster seat once your child is ready for one.

The ideal car seat for a newborn car seat is lightweight and easy to lift it from the base and carry with your baby in it. Our parents loved the Maxi-Cosi Coral, which is only available in a few colours, but offers plenty of safety features and is extremely lightweight (at 8.4 pounds with seat inserts and canopy). Other standout models include the Nuna PIPA URbN and the Nuna PIPA URbN, which was a winner of Gold in the 2021 Mother&top rated baby car seats Awards for Best Car Seat Group 0/0+, thanks to its high-end extras like the Dream drape and full-coverage UPF 50+ canopy.

The design of the seat and base should be considered. Some car seats have an attached base that is locked into the vehicle buckles for seat belts. Others have steel reinforced connectors for LATCH which flip out of the sides of the base once properly joined. Parents found these convenient particularly if their vehicle had only front-facing seatbelts, and no ISOFIX anchor points.

Certain infant car seats work with regular seatbelts, but without the base. This is a great feature for parents who travel frequently or take taxis with their children. The Nuna TODL NEXT was a popular choice among our parents who tested it. It can be used with or without the base, and features a smooth swivel that makes it easier to get your baby in and out.

Other important design considerations include whether a car seat comes with a flat design, and how well it fits into your particular car (see our guide to car seat compatibility). If you're in search of a new infant car seat that can expand with your child's development into a booster pick a model with a reclining backrest and side impact protection. It's also worth checking that your chosen infant car seat is iSize compatible and has the right car seat attachment points, in accordance with UK law.
