Tricky to install rear facing
This seat is very bulky and is tricky to install rear facing and many parents install it too upright. The recline adjuster doesn't necessarily put the seat at the correct angle (the line on the side of the seat needs to be level with the ground.)
When the seat is at the proper recline angle with the line level to the ground as required by the manufacturer, the seat takes up a lot of space front to back. Since the seat cannot touch the passenger seat in front of it, this sometimes makes the front passenger seat unusable as it needs to be moved so far forward.
Also, as a booster, this seat does not place the lap belt low enough on the hips which could be harmful to a child in a collision.
The instructions for the seat should be read to ensure that the seat is used and instlled correctly.
Wish car seats was easier to clean but besides that this car seat is very comfy and material is very nice. I found button to slack uo the seat belts stiff but now not so bad. Love the removable head pillow and also the removable pieces on the straps
I have used these seats for my two youngest. They are comfy for them and easy to install. Cute too
This seat is great. Comfortable, adjustable, durable, safe. I especially like the side 'wings' beside the kids head for side impact protection. We were in a car accident with ours and my kid was kept totally safe and 100% uninjured, whereas, I sustained sever whiplash. So thankful that it did it's job 100%! I recommend this!!!
We bought this car seat for our son once he out grew his infant seat. We drive often to visit our families (approx. 4 hrs) and he has never once complained about being in his seat. It cleans well, straps easy, and seems really comfortable. It also takes less room when rear-facing than most other seats we looked at. Definitely a good buy.
We purchased this seat after our lil one grew out of his infant car seat and it was definately worth the price. We spent some time researching convertible car seats and this one seemed like the best price for value. I will admit it does take up alot of space when using as a rear facing car seat, however if you have a larger vehicle like we do than it's not an issue. It's very easy to install and transfer to the grandparents vehicle when needed, all the padding, moveable arm rests and reclining feature truly make the seat a smooth ride for lil ones. Definately recommend this seat for families that travel longer distances.
