Q: I live in NYC and don't have a car, but want to have an option for taking cabs. Can this be used without the base in a cab? Is it difficult and/or unsafe?

Thanks!

A: Yes, the Snugride can most definitely can be used without the base.

Just place your car seat, baby and all, in the middle portion of the back seat (rear-facing of course). Then, simply place the lap belt around the car seat almost like it’s a person and click it into place. There are even slots on the sides that you can thread the seatbelt through for safety. It’s super easy!

Even though installing the base and clicking the car seat in is the best-case scenario, it’s just not always possible when you’re in and out of cabs all the time. But using a car seat without the base is better than no car seat at all!

Staff Answer
A: There are three SnugRide models: SnugRide, SnugRide 32, and SnugRide 35. Functionally, they all work the same. The main differences between the three are how long you are able to use it with your infant, and the size/weight of the seat. Here are the specifics:

SnugRide: rear-facing only; for infants 5-22 lbs., less than 29 inches tall.
-Size: 7.5 lbs w/o base, 24.2"H x 17.5"W x 26.7"D

SnugRide 32: rear-facing only; for infants 5-32 lbs., less than 32 inches tall.
-Size: 9.7 lbs w/o base, 15.6"H 18.7"W x 30.7"D

SnugRide 35: rear-facing only; for infants 5 to 35 lbs., less than 32 inches tall.
-Size: 9.7 lbs w/o base, 15.6"H 18.7"W x 30.7"D

NOTE: The SnugRide 32 and 35 have a wider footprint than the basic SnugRide, so if you plan to use it with a stroller car seat adapter or stroller frame, be sure to confirm they are compatible with eachother.

A: Yes, the Graco Snugride is compatible with the 2009 model Bugaboo Bee. More importantly, you need to make sure that you are using the 2009 model car seat adapter. The 2010 adapter is not compatible with the older model stroller. Thanks for your question!

A: The SnugRide Platinum is compatible with any basic SnugRide base. It will not work with a SnugRide 35 base, as the Platinum has a smaller footprint. The premium boot is absolutely enough to keep an infant warm in the wintertime!

Staff Answer
A: Yes, the SnugRide Platinum comes with one base. As for extra bases, there is a specific one that is designed to fit the Platinum, so make sure you don’t end up with the base for the SnugRide 35, which is a larger car seat. The extra bases for the Platinum will be back on the site end of this week, so be sure to check back!
