Car Seat Manufacturers I went into my local Babies R Us the other day in hopes of researching a seat for Grandma's car and decided to check out the Maxi Cosi. Much to my surprise, Maxi Cosi is made by Dorel, which also makes Cosco and Eddie Bauer. After further investigation it turns out that Maxi Cosi makes the fabric cover and contracts Dorel to do the rest.
I just really like to know who exactly Im buying a carseat from, not what name is printed on it.
Im now trying to fill in the blanks on all carseats on the market. If you can fill in any missing makers, or have corrections to any I have listed, please let me know!
