It's all in the title. We currently just have one DS who is almost 9mo. We have a Chicco nextfit in my car and we are still using our Chicco keyfit in DHs car. LO is in my car about 65% of the time, though he does spend a decent amount of time in my husbands car as well. I'm trying to decide what to get for our second seat. I love the nextfit so far but not sure if I want to spend that much again.
So, what are y'all workin with? How much is your LO in each vehicle?

DD has been in this car seat for a year. (Link for pic)
I liked it sooo much that DS just got the same exact one.
DD weighs a whopping 24 lbs at age 2 and DS weighs a whopping 22 lbs at 10 months.

We have only one , a Clek Foonf which I love everything about. dh doesn't have a car seat in his car because it's really just used to get him to work. My mom has a Britax Pavillion in her car which is growing on me.

We have the Graco Size4Me 70 in both cars. We wanted something that Xander could rear-face in for as long as possible. He's split pretty evenly between our two cars - Hubs does daycare drop-off and I do pick-up.

We have a Clek Foonf in my car (which is used 99.9% of the time) and a Diono Radian in DH's car.

I do drop off and DH does pick up, so she spends a good amount of time in each car. We each have Foonfs for E and we have a Chicco Keyfit with two bases for the next baby.

We only have a Peg Perego convertible in our CR-V, but we're about to get a Safety 1st Guide 65 for flying...

We have one car and she rides in a Graco MyRide 65. We really like it.

We only have one car and have a chicco Nextfit. It was the only seat with extended rear facing that fit well in our old car. We will probably get a lighter seat for flying at some point.

We are a one-car family, so we just have 1 seat. It's a Foonf. We had a B-safe infant seat until she was 13 months old (she hadn't grown out of it yet).
I'm thinking about buying a Scenara for travel, but I haven't decided yet.

Foonf in my car and Nextfit in DH's. I like the Foonf better. The Nextfit is just hard to get tight but that is my only complaint.

@CRGmama: We have the nextfit and love it. AND it's on sale for 25% off at Target this week....(use RedCard and get another 5% off too!!) I'm deciding if we will get another one of these for LO2; or move LO1 into a different seat. He loves the seat, and we are still rear-facing since he doesn't turn 2 until March.

We have:
Britax Boulevard in my car, currently front facing, used weekly
Graco Nautilus in my husband's car, Front facing, used daily
Britax Frontier in my mother's car, front facing, used daily
Graco MyRide in my dad's car, front facing, used occasionally
For travel, we have a Cosco Scenera and we also have a Swedish Britax covertible for when we are in Europe.

We have a Britax Boulevard in my car and a Graco MyRide 65 in DHs. We have LO1s old Britax b-safe for when LO2 gets here. We are actually going to send the Graco to my in-laws so we don't have to fly with it next year, so we will be down to just my car for carseats.

We had a Britax B-safe with 2 bases and now have a Britax Advocate and Diono Radian RXT. I've been happy with all of them.

We only have one - Britax Be-Safe. My car is not exactly baby friendly (Mini Cooper), but DH and I can switch cars depending so we're probably good. Might need to get one for my mom's car since she'll be watching DD twice a week later on.

We have Britax B-safe in my car. LO still fits in it even at 16 months. In DH's truck, its a Graco Fit4Me. It's rear facing for the time being, but I think we might switch it soon. LO is mostly in my car as I do daycare drop off, most pick ups, and weekend driving is in my car.

Our snugride 35 stays on DHs car for emergencies and my car has our 4ever. We rarely use DHs car and I almost always do drop offs and pickups. When dd outgrows the anugride we will get a cheaper second seat for DH/grandparents to share - probably one of the cheaper graco seats or a Cosco scenera, which I hear is good for air travel.

We've been using the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio infant seat from birth - 9 months.
We just bought 2 Safety 1st convertible car seats. One for each car. T is in each car 50% of the time. Haha. When I'm working, I drop off at daycare and DH does pick up. T smiled really big when we put him in it. The infant seat was getting really small!

We have a Britax marathon in my car which is used 95% of the time, and a Costco in DH's for emergencies. For new baby we will use a Graco Snugfit 30 with 2 bases (DD's old seat.)
cantaloupe / 6059 posts
We have a Graco Snugfit 30 for DD and a Britax Marathon for DS. We need to buy a new convertible car seat soon and will probably put DD in our Marathon and get something with a higher RF limit for our tall DS.

We currently have DD1 (33 months) in a Diono Radian RXT and DD2 (4.5 months) in a Britax Chaperone. The Chaperone was DD1's infant car seat and I love it - so sad it's not made anymore! We plan to keep DD1 in the Chaperone until she outgrows it and then buying another RXT. We only have one car and the Diono's will allow me to still sit between the car seats if needed (though I can still fit with the Chaperone and RXT now).

I have a Graco My Size 70 in my car and DH has a cheapie convertible in his car. Can't remember what it is. We're replacing his with a Britax Frontier 90 pretty soon, since he had her way more now. She used to spend all her time in my car, but it's a lot more equal these days and soon, it'll be more him.
My mom has a Graco Nautilus in her car. She spends a decent amount with them too.

We have Diono Radian RXT for both boys. Luckily we were moving overseas and had to sell one car or else we would have had to buy two more for the other car. We sold our second car right around when we had to move to a convertible car seat for my youngest so it all worked out since we already had two Diono car seats.

We had a graco snugride infant carseat with two bases. Then we transferred him to Britax convertibles, an adovcate in my car and a pavilion in DH's car.
We also have a evenflo tribute for travel/grandparents car.
