Ingenuity 3Dquickclose CS+: what it gives up

  • No child weight limit on the page, so how long it lasts has to be checked on the box
  • Which listed car seats need an adapter is unclear, so confirm before buying seat and frame together
  • Umbrella-style frame with no bassinet or newborn mode, so a young baby rides in the car seat

Summer 3Dlite+: what it gives up

  • Adds a pound over the base 3Dlite for the nicer seat and canopy
  • No child weight limit is printed, so seat life is unclear
  • Same 33.5 x 19.5 x 42.5 inch open size as the 13 lb original, so the extra $20 buys canopy and recline, not space
