Graco CarGo carseat?

[Moochie Mamma]

Wondering if anyone has this seat? What do you think of it? I'm looking for a lightweight but safe seat for 25lb DD for travel and I keep coming across this one. The other one that I'm looking at is the Cosco Eddie Bauer seat.

Thanks!

if i'm not mistaken, the cargo is a forward facing only seat. at 25 pounds your child is much safer rear facing. check out the cosco scenera, it RFs to 35 pounds and FFs to 40. it's also really lightweight and about $50.

Yep, also have to jump in, the Scenera is a great, lightweight, travel seat, and rear faces until 35, yes 35 pounds!! so you can keep your angel safe until probably at least 2, maybe 3 years in it!! It's usually $40-50 at walmart or target, but i heard Kmart has it on sale this week for $35.

I would do the Scenera too, as your dd is so petite

The Graco CarGo is a good harnessed toddler seat for an older, bigger toddler, but it makes a terrible bpb, ftr

I agree. I have the Graco UltraCargo, and it is fine as a harnessed seat, but not the best as a booster. It harnesses up to 40 lb.
