  "title": "Infant car seat bases that install with LATCH or a seat belt",
  "question": "Which infant car seat bases can be installed with either the LATCH system or the vehicle seat belt?",
  "answer": "Evenflo NurtureMax: The reviewer says the base clicked into place with minimal effort and felt solid once installed, and that the process is straightforward with either LATCH or the seat belt. The writer reports that both LATCH and seat belt installations were straightforward, with clear instructions, and that the base felt sturdy and secure once fitted.\nDOONA LATCH Base: Users reportedly find installation very simple with either LATCH or a seat belt, and describe moving the seat between vehicles as a roughly 10-second click-in transition. The store says integrated belt-locking clips support installation with a vehicle seat belt.\nEvenflo LiteMax DLX Infant Car Seat Base with LoadLeg: The base's lock-off makes installation quick with either the seat belt or the lower anchors, and the seat belt is easier if the base is regularly moved between cars. The SureSafe LATCH system with guides lets you install with the vehicle's lower anchors, or use the belt lock-off for a seat-belt installation.",
