Car seats can take up quite a bit of room in your back seat, and for families with multiple little ones, situating them all in the car can be a bit of a headache. Fortunately the Chicco KeyFit 35 ClearTex Infant Car Seat is designed with a slim profile, so you can install multiple car seats side-by-side and ensure every member of your growing family is safely secured. At 17.5 inches wide, the KeyFit 35 is one of the narrowest seats that we’ve tested (up to two inches slimmer than some on our list!). It pairs this slim profile with notable safety features (like an anti-rebound bar and GREENGUARD Gold certified fabric) and a lower price point than its big-name competitors, earning it a Best of The Bump award for best narrow infant car seat. After all, you don’t want to sacrifice overall performance just for smaller dimensions, and with the KeyFit 35, you don’t just get a slim car seat—you get a skinny workhorse that delivers everyday high performance.Even better, narrow doesn’t mean a tight fit for your child. Our product tester Samantha found the seat roomy for her 5-month-old baby, and says, "My baby seems very comfortable in the car seat—so comfortable he barely cries in this one and falls asleep in the car so easily. He has a lot of room to grow, with the headrest moving up higher and the space/length around his legs."This top infant car seat’s features include an extendable, five-position headrest that grows with baby, and an easily-adjustable no-rethread harness. "Getting baby in and out of the car seat is simple and straightforward, and the straps were smooth to loosen and tighten," Samantha told us, giving the KeyFit 35 10 out of 10 scores for ease of use.
