Infant Car Seats That Swivel

If you suffer from back pain or have difficulty the buckling of your child the car seat, an infant car seat that rotates could make all the difference for you. However, these seats usually cost a lot.

Some of the top rotating seats have advanced safety features like an anti-rebounding bar, as well as Linear Side Impact Protection, which decreases collision forces.

CYBEX Aton G Swivel

Swivel bases are a great option for those who travel light and want to transfer their infant car seat rear facing car seat from one vehicle to another without having to remove and reinstall the base each time. The CYBEX Aton G Swivel offers the exact same feature, in addition to clever functionality and an impressive ease of use when loading and unloading your child.

The one-of-a-kind swivel rotates 180 degrees, making it much easier to position your child in the car seat from either side of the vehicle. This is a huge aid, particularly for wriggly infants. CYBEX makes it easy to install the car seat with their SafeLock belt tensioner that guarantees a secure fit in seconds.

Other notable features include a no-rethread harness that can be adjusted in tandem with the headrest, allowing it to accommodate the growing of your baby, Linear Side-Impact Protection that reduces collision forces and an anti-rebound bar that enhances the seat's rotation in an accident. The shell features ventilation channels that allow for natural airflow, which keeps your baby car seat comfortable. The seat can also be washed by machine to make cleaning easy.

Another excellent feature is the possibility of using this car seat as a transport system that can be used with strollers of your choice. The Aton is compatible with the CYBEX Gazelle S Stroller, among other strollers. It's not an easy task to attach an infant car seat to a stroller. You'll need to push a button located at the front of the seat, and then take the seat off the clip. If you think that's not enough to keep you from thinking about this seat, you should be aware that it has less impressive crash test results than its competitors and is also more expensive. It's still a good option for families with children. / p>

Graco SnugRide Convertible Car Seat

The Graco snugRide is a good choice for families with children. It provides a good mix of crash protection, features and usability, including a front belt adjuster and adjustable base (in certain versions). It also integrates with many strollers, which is a nice feature. It does have some issues. The seat is very tippy particularly when it is fitted with the belt in the rear. This can cause it to loosen and require tightening over time. This is not a safety issue, but it can be a nuisance for some parents. The second problem is that the crotch strap depth may be too deep for certain babies. This can cause them to slouch over.

The SnugRide from Graco is a fantastic choice for babies of all ages. It will fit children weighing up to 35 pounds or two years old, which is usually the limit for infant car seats. The seat has received excellent scores in crash tests. This is not surprising. It is light and has easy-to-follow instructions. It also scores highly in our ease-of-use ratings which includes how easy it is to put on, adjust, and secure the harness.

The Graco GragRide isn't as good in other categories such as comfort and quality. The fabric feels more plasticky than other infant car seats, and the padding is thin overall. This is the only one of our top picks to not provide a head-support insert for smaller children which is a shame because it can help lower the chance of injury for certain babies.

Orbit Baby G5+

The G5+ infant seat is an excellent option for parents who value the comfort and convenience. It is a combination of innovative safety technology with cutting-edge functionality. Its patent-pending SmartHub Base is directly compatible with the G5+ rotating infant car seat, removing the need to use additional car adapters.

The SmartHub base is installed quickly and safely in less than 60 seconds by simply a turn of the patented StrongArm knob. It's designed with an ergonomically-designed deep-cradle design and molded side impact protection for the best possible crash protection. The base is also lightweight to allow for easy transportation. It includes a full-coverage UV sunshade with patent-pending Paparazzi Shield extension that tucks away when not in use. The seat itself is made with soft, breathable premium fabrics that are comfortable in all seasons or climate, and certified safe by Oeko-Tex Standard 100 for the ultimate in fabric safety. It comes with a five-point harness, a head support insert and an adjustable bar that can be adjusted to suit the height of parents.

When used in conjunction with the SmartHub base, the G5+ can be rotated and reclined in one fluid motion. It can be used in a upright position or fully reclined, with the parent facing forward or in front. The seat comes with high-quality lower anchors that are pushed which are easily accessible and store in a convenient place. The base also comes with a built-in indicator that lets parents know whether the lower anchors have been properly tightened, eliminating the need to guess.

With the purchase of Orbit Baby Helix+ double stroller attachment, the G5+ can be converted into a double-stroller. It can accommodate up to two G5+ Stroller Seats, or a combination of the G5+ and the Nuna DEMI Next Sibling Car Seat.

Maxi-Cosi Peri

If you have a family that loves to travel or you own an SUV and a car seat that rotates, a rotating infant seat could be the ideal option for you. These seats make it easy to load and unload infants from the car particularly when baby is cranky or squirmy. They also come in handy when you suffer from back pain or a difficult time getting into the back seat with just one arm. These seats are able to rotate in order to reach the child's seat. This allows you to take away the child and then buckle them up.

Maxi-Cosi Peri comes with an impressive set of safety features, including G-Cell technology for side impact, a cosy-from-birth insert, and a handle that can rotate 360 degrees on the base. The seat can be placed in a rear-facing position from birth. It comes with five recline positions to ensure an appropriate fit. The headrest can be adjusted simultaneously with the harness. The base has a stability leg as well as an anti-rebound bar to provide added security.

Parents will appreciate the QuikFit 6-position harness that will eliminate the need to rethread as the baby grows. The harness and headrest can be adjusted easily at the same time using one hand, and a TensionFix red-to-green indicator on the base informs you when the belt is properly tightened. The chest clip is equipped with Sensorsafe, which sends an alert via mobile app if the child unbuckles it in a crash.

Similar to the Cybex Aton G Swivel, the Peri has an obvious belt path within the shell which allows for baseless installation without the base (taxi mode). This is a handy feature that allows parents to be flexible when traveling. The seat is able to be attached to certain Maxi-Cosi travel systems and is stroller compatible.

NUNA REVV

This rotating convertible car seat from Nuna offers a stress-free method of getting your baby out of the vehicle. It can be swiveled to the door of your vehicle for easy in-and-out without the need to bend your back. It also grows with your baby's weight from newborn to 40 pounds. It rotates 360deg for forward and rear-facing riding with just one installation and its steel strength technology, Aeroflex side impact protection pods and EPP energy-absorbing foam take safety to the next level. Ventilation panels inside the shell ensure your child's comfort, while the 10-position bubble-free recline makes sure there aren't any pinch points.

This seat has above-average accessibility due to a five-point harness that is not rethread and magnetic buckle holders that keep straps clear during buckle buckling. The crotch belt is adjustable with two height settings and 10 strap length options to ensure a secure fit. The stability load leg at the base assists in reducing movement during an accident. There's a storage cubby for LATCH connectors as well as straps. Additionally, the seat is equipped with a rebound bar to minimize the chance of a crash to rotate.

The Revv isn't the most heavy seat in its class but it is still quite heavy and larger than the majority of seats we've test. It's not the best car seat option for small cars or front-seat passengers. It doesn't include an indicator of the level, so you may need to play around to find the perfect position. It does have a color-coded path and a belt-lock-off to help you avoid making mistakes. The push-style connectors used for LATCH make it much easier to attach to the belts of the vehicle. It has a high crash test score and is GREENGUARD certified to ensure you breathe fresh air.
