1. Website

Graco's website allows you to search by age, height, and weight.  They carry many childseat products, but quite a few of them are different mainly in appearance and not in function.  For example, there are 41 Car Seats and 49 youth booster Car Seats.  It would be much better if they have a comparative table to detail the differences among the different models.

3. Recent Recalls

These are 2006 and 2007 recalls on childseats.  Please refer to manufacturer's or NHTSA websites for latest updates.  Information obtained from NHTSA website.

Model(s): ComfortSport Rear/Forward Facing Child Restraint Systems
Production Dates: January 2, 2007 - July 31, 2007
Noncompliance: Certain Graco Comfortsport 5 point harness convertible (rear/forward facing) child restraint systems manufactured from January 2 through July 31, 2007, Model Nos. 8433FOF, 8629TWL, 8630MTR, 8631DFT, 8631DRA, 8632PSO, 8635TAC, 8639COS, 8C00BLG, 8C00DMN, 8C00GRP, 8C00LNW, 8C00MID, 8C00TMD, 8C01SVD, 8C01WTN, 8C02MGI, 8C02MRC, 8C03HAL, 8C03WCF, 8C04FRR. During production, the lower anchorage belt in some of these child restraint systems was incorrectly routed. As a result, when these child restraint systems are used in the rear-facing mode, attached with the lower anchorage belt, they fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213, "Child Restraint Systems." The seat back angle of the child restraint system can exceed 70 degrees in a frontal crash. This increased rotation may increase the risk of injury to the child. Corrective Action: Graco will notify registered owners and provide detailed instructions for examining the lower anchorage belt routing and, if necessary, reconfigure the incorrectly routed belt. The recall is expected to begin during August 2007. Owners can contact Graco at 800-345-4109.
