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 honestly had no idea that $500-600+ car seats even existed! It sort of blew my mind so I was really interested to know what made them cost so much more. I thought the regular price on our Graco was kind of crazy ($250 got on sale for $180 but I've seen them as low as $130) Thanks for your reply.
First, the cup holders are positioned horribly. My kiddo is 2yrs 3mos and usually can't reach them because they sit too low. And even with tall cups, he can't see the cupholder to be able to consistently get the cup into them. Horrible design that results in a lot of frustration for both kiddo and parents. May as well have left them off altogether.
Second, the harness straps are awful about getting twisted up and turned around inside the clasps. It's just not fun to buckle kiddo into it often. The Graco is worlds better in that regard.
Just sharing my experience. For over $150 cheaper most of the time, the Graco 4ever DLX is a clear winner here. Only real minuses I would give it is it doesn't look as fancy and isn't quite as padded as the Nuna, but my kiddo actually seems to prefer the extra space in the Graco too.
Perhaps the chemicals added to fire retardant seats make some people weird. I don't really mind if fire retardant treated things touch my kid but apparently there are those that do

With that said, if you are lucky and have an easy going baby, any car seat sold on retail would suffice.
