Very comfortable very safe
We have had this car seat for 5 years and used it for born of our kids. It is a very good very comfortable seat. It has traveled across the country with us a couple of times, and although it is heavy, it is sturdy and very safe. My best friend bought this seat for my son when he was a year old after researching the safest car seats, and loved the ratings and safety features on this specific seat. Evenflo is a very reliable and reputable company with amazing customer service.
My favorite part of this seat is the click adjust for the 5-point harness. I just turn the knob, and the seat belt tightens. It is so easy to do and there is ZERO fight. It literally only takes a second to be sure that my child is buckled in safely.
This car seat has been doing the job so far for us. Very comfortable, easy to remove and insert back into the vehicle. The only frustration (Which i read in other reviews on the supplier site) was the straps tend to get twisted- which they do. But minor detail...
After being in a car accident we needed to get a convertible car seat so someone lent us the Evenflo Triumph until we could get another seat.
The seat itself is just $199.99 so it's on the less expensive end of the spectrum. it is difficult to switch from forward facing to rear facing. The installation took awhile and was not the easiest. Our baby was unfortunately not able to get in and out of the seat comfortably because the knob that adjusts the tightness of the harness is at the front side of the seat and ends up right against the back of the seat making it difficult to turn while in rear facing mode. If the seat is in forward facing then I am sure it may be easier (except that it would be facing away from the opening of the door).
I would not purchase this seat because I find the features impede on using the seat well. I suggest going with a different seat altogether.
I have this for my youngest at the moment, as she's quite tiny and it's the seat I have that she fits the best in and is most comfortable in. It is a decent seat. Easy to use. Good quality construction. Cover removes easily or washing and is easy to put back on. It's a basic, no frills car seat and does it's job well.
This car seat is great, it's easy to install and I like that you can adjust the straps easily with the baby buckled in. The only problems with it is that it takes up quite a bit of room when rear facing and the belt going through the buckles tends to get twisted easily. It's not a huge problem, but it can be difficult to fix with a squirming baby in the seat.
I just recently bought this car seat for my 9 month old son and I just love it, as does he. Very easy to install and adjust. The only thing is that it is a very big seat.
