This Chicco Keyfit is the number one infant seat rated for safety. A great starter for first time parents who google how to do everything. It is the Cortina model, two years old, and purchased for $190. It was barely used for 8 months. (This carseat is compatible with a stroller that made travel easy.)
The geometric carseat canopy is JJ Cole, purchased for $20, and helpful to keep sun out/wind out. Breathable.
