The base crash tests that all car seats legally sold in America must pass ensure that all car seats meet a baseline level of safety that is acceptable. Some car seats (this one included) add some additional safety features that at best add some additional safety measures in unique situations, and at worst are simply ways to upsell parents who are inclined to do anything that suggests more protection for their child. It's up to each family to decide which additional safety measures are "worth it."

Additionally, some car seats have things like built-in cupholders, adjustable leg support, easier attachment to car methods, easier harnesses to get on your child, better washability, are narrower to fit in smaller cars, are lighter to make it easier to switch from car to car, etc.

I have used 5 different car seats over the years. We bought the Nuna during the last sale for my near 4-year-old. We have had Britax, Graco, Evenflo, and now Nuna. I would say that the Nuna excels in being fairly lightweight compared to similar convertible car seats, has a nice sleek design that is easy to clean, and has some good additional safety and comfort features. Do these features warrant the additional $150+ price tag (when on sale) over a Graco? Likely not, but if you have some additional cash and the few beneficial features I mentioned above are worth it to you (like they were to us), then I think you will be happy.

As another poster mentioned, when you have kids you realize that you're putting in/taking out your kid from a car seat multiple times a day. Anything that can make that experience easier is worth considering. That said, if you are cash-strapped then you likely should splurge somewhere more meaningful in your life. Go to Costco and pick up the $200 Graco they often have and you'll be happy and your kiddo safe.

I just got the caviar color a few weeks ago. Which color would stain less? I'm guessing this one although it is lighter.

We've two of these and one ocean (dark blue), they seem to get dirty at the same rate.

The ocean really needs to go on sale!

what makes these so expensive compared to...a Graco? Do they have super high crash test ratings? Is it a designer brand? Does it have OnStar or something?

Read reviews? If you money buy these, if lesser money to get same performance buy graco. There wont be much difference. Nuna is like acura, you can buy honda / toyota which will have the same benefits/usage

For something that gets used multiple times a day, a nice car seat does make a big difference. We have an Evenflo 360 and the ability to rotate makes all the difference when strapping down a fussy toddler.

Keep an eye out that evenflo is likely to be recalled

Nobody should buy a used car seat, hence why they're "close to worthless." And for the amount of time that a child will spend in this car seat, I'm sorry but $375 is nothing for their safety and comfort. I'm sure you've spent more on yourself for completely frivolous things, so I really don't understand this comment.

On another note… I thought I read once that this flame retardant version from Nordstrom has material that was of lesser quality than the typical Nuna. Anyone have experience with that?

Gracos cost 1/3 of the price on target...
