Hi:
I am expecting my second baby in 5 weeks. I am debating on whether to purchase a new infant car seat. I have a Century Avanta SE, manufactured in 2000. It has a 3 point harness, and the straps aren't that easy to adjust. My first child was able to use the seat till he was over a year old. I was considering the Graco Snugride DX with a 5 point harness. Having the strap adjustments in the back isn't a HUGE concern (they are much easier to adjust than my current seat), and I don't need LATCH compatability, because I drive a 2001 Saab 9-5 Wagon. I found a Snugride DX @ Babycenter for $55.89. I'd appreciate any feedback anyone has. I'm just not sure whether it is necessary for me to get a new one.
Thanks!
