"If I were in the market to buy a new car seat, I would cross-check safety ratings with the list at www.healthystuff.org. While they have not checked for all potentially dangerous chemicals, they have based their ratings on the level of lead, cadmium, chlorine, arsenic, bromine, and mercury found in the car seats. (These substances have been linked to allergies, birth defects, impaired learning, liver toxicity, and cancer.) You can find seats that perform well in crash tests and in toxicity tests, but it's not easy to find a perfect fit, especially when you have to look at cost, size, functionality, and availability."
