Does anyone have nay experience with the saftey first infant carrier and how can they compare it to the graco. Thanks in advance. I see that consumer reports rates it better than the graco.

No front harness adjuster... really, that doesn't seem like it'd be a pain, but it really, really is a hurdle to keeping the harness tightened properly. It's also a beast to install, in my experience. Though it does have a devoted fan on this board (whom we haven't seen in weeks, unfortunately she lived in southern Louisiana :( ).
If it's the higher weight and height limits you're looking at, don't worry, ALL seats go to 22 pounds and 29+ inches now. Consumer Reports crash testing is suspect, at best.. they accentuate issues that don't matter much, and fail to catch some dangerous seat situations that even the government does catch, so don't rely heavily on it for car seats...:)
