I just skimmed through the replies and wanted to add:
I was also heavily researching a car seat a while back and went with the Britax B-Safe. I could give you a million reasons why but I really just knew it was one of the best. I posted a pic of it on Facebook and a friend of mine said she also used the Britax brand with her daughter from birth until now, she's 2. She said they are expensive and might weigh a little more (talking about the convertible seat for her daughter) but for the safety, they're worth it.
Fast forward 2 weeks and my friend was in a rollover accident where her car flipped down an embankment twice and come to rest on its side. It killed my friend, 26 but her daughter, 2 - wasn't injured at all. *This happened last week.
I'm sure Chicco is a safe brand too and as long as all car seats are installed and used properly, they will do their job - but for me, it's Britax all the way.
