Installation

The Embrace LX’s base is not easy to install. And to easily install the infant seat carrier using the lap/shoulder belt, you will need to use rolled towels to get the proper recline. You also have to use a locking clip to ensure that the seat belt installation on the seat carrier will be kept locked.

The Canopy

It is easier to carry the 30 LX using your bare hands or arms. That is because its canopy does not interfere with the carry handle.

While the 30 LX’s canopy is not easy to move to your desired position, it does stay in place once you managed to get your desired angle.

The Embrace LX’s canopy and handle have limited space between them. To carry the Embrace LX seat easily, drape over a separate infant car seat cover to give ample space for carrying it by hand/arms. Otherwise, consider clicking it in into a compatible stroller.

While the Embrace LX canopy is easy to move to your desired position, it does not stay in place, so you will have to keep on moving it to your desired position should you decide to utilize its default canopy.

The Seat

The Graco 30 LX’s seat material is made up of a breathable material. Your child will not overheat in the seat should they have to be in it for longer than usual.

The 30 LX is also lighter by 0.5 pounds.

They both have machine-washable seat covers which are easy to remove for washing.

Both of the seat harnesses need to be manually removed to adjust them to the next higher slot every time your child grows in height.

The Graco 30 LX has 1 year more than the Embrace LX before it expires.

And lastly, you will have to get separate shoulder pads for the Embrace LX as it doesn’t come with it.
 

Compare The Price

Conclusion

There’s an approximately USD 20 plus price difference between the Evenflo Embrace LX and the Graco Snugride Click Connect 30 LX. To justify the price difference, you have the following advantages of the 30 LX against the Embrace LX.

1. It’s more compact than the Embrace LX. If vehicle space is crucial, the front seat passenger will appreciate that you don’t have to move the front seat all the way to the front since the Graco 30 LX is shorter than the Embrace LX.
2. The canopy stays in place and it’s easier to carry the seat by hands or arms since the canopy does not get in the way of the carry handles.
3. The seat material is more breathable compared to the Embrace LX.
4. The seat weight is lighter.
5. It has a longer expiration date.
6. It comes with shoulder harness pads.

These 6 points are more than USD 20 in my opinion.

And with these justifications, I’d confidently say, choose the Graco Click Connect 30 LX.
