What is the best car seat??? (Desperately need recs!)

My toddler HATES the carseat. Screaming, kicking, sobbing. It’s a huge struggle that makes anything outside of driving to the park 5 minutes away a very stressful situation.

We have the Nuna and my friend suggested that maybe it’s the bucket style of the car seat that’s making him uncomfortable. He has hated the car seat since birth and despite everyone saying he’ll get used to it, he has not! I’m willing to buy a second one just to test it out, and would love your recs!
