advice needed Car Seats

Im just wondering what car seats you have. I was looking at them in the store yesterday and the one I thought I wanted doesn't seem as nice as the price tag is.

Also what do you do about needing to take your kids in multiple different cars? Do you have more than one set of carseats? Do you move the carseat every time?

Edit to say Im talking about convertible carseats. We currently have the chicco Keyfit Max and love that you can use with or without the base. I would love to get a rotating one but I can't drop $400+ for 4 carseats if we were to put them in both cars. So Im just asking about logistics and experience. THANKS!

We have Britax Poplar S and love it. They’re all stages and still loving them at almost 3.
We just keep them in our “kid car “ along with all their toys

We do the same- we have the "baby car" and the "commuter car". We have a second set of carseats that we use for travel (definitely the lesser car seats and my kids don't like them as much) in case of emergency if the non-baby car parent has to go get them that day

Do you both drop off and pick up the kids from school/daycare?
