Best overall baby car seat for most families: Chicco KeyFit 35. It is a strong default pick because it is generally easy to install, fits newborns well, supports rear-facing infant use up to a higher weight/height range than many basic infant seats, and works with many stroller setups via adapters.

What could change this answer

Always verify the current model’s recall status, expiration date, vehicle fit, stroller compatibility, and installation instructions before buying.
Avoid used car seats unless you can confirm they were never in a crash, are not expired, have all parts and labels, and have not been recalled.
