My daughter picked this out at Kids r Us, I saved by buying from Amazon. My daughter tells me the quality and comfort for her daughter is very satisfactory even on long car trips. Amazon delivery was perfect again, as always. Thanks Amazon!!!!

  • The seat does what it needs to and for the price is appropriate. I don't switch cars with it, and installing it once was a little more cumbersome than the twice as expensive Recaro back-to-front seat we have in the other car. The belts are thinner than the Recaro's, which actually makes it easier to twist any wrongly aligned latches. The tightening strap is difficult to pull snugly, but not frustratingly so.

    As others have mentioned, there isn't much head support for naps while driving, so for longer trips where your child may be napping, have something to use for head support so the nap lasts longer than til the first major turn.

    The low seat height and fold-able armrests are great for ingress/egress, but for whatever reason, when the seat is empty, they jiggle annoyingly when driving unless you wrap a harness strap around them.

    So overall, its a decent seat that my son likes to ride in, but has some little quirks that have easy work-arounds that would probably cost way extra for an enhanced feature on another model booster seat.

  • I purchased this carseat from Amazon.com and per usual it came quickly and fit the description perfectly. I loved the style, the features, and the fabric of this seat. However, after using it for 2 weeks I had to return it. The main issue was that when my daughter falls asleep in this carseat, her head flops around because there's no head support. Obviously this isn't comfortable for her, so she wakes up and cries every time I turn a corner or step on the brake.

    As a note, my wife has a Deluxe Eddie Bauer High Back Booster Car Seat that does have a head support, so some of the models have them. This seat's head cushion stops my daughter's head from flopping sideways. I'll shop around for other seats, specifically looking at the Graco Nautilus, but if I don't like that, I'll probably buy what my wife has. I hope this helps.

  • This is a great seat. The ability to quickly change the configuration including straps and recline and make it work with any car/van you have really rocks. I have 3 different seats and this one is the easiest and best by far.

  • did governor janet napalatano cut funding in arizona for child safety seats?
    Not from what I have read but she is not very well liked from the other articles that I have read.
  • did governor janet napalatano cut funding in arizona for child safety seats?
    What is the government doing funding child safety seats? For $30, they'll last a million years. It's not exactly hard to get one.

    Nope. But she IS considering cutting Funding for the Republican Legislature! :)
  • Travel systems, car seats, and baby strollers?
    I absolutely love our Graco travel system! We used the car seat up until she was 7 1/2 months and have used the stroller since birth and use it a lot more often than I ever thought that we would! :-)
  • Travel systems, car seats, and baby strollers?
    I used a travel system for both my kids and would recommend it. The seat is usually good up to 25lbs (which lasted to my kiddo's 1st bday). They all come with a base for your car which makes it easy to take out of the car and put in. They are nice because when the baby is still too small for the stroller, the car seat is made to snap on the top of the stoller facing backwards. I got my last travel system on sale for $100 at Target just because they were getting the next year models and this one was from the current year. So, shop around and you might get a good deal. You could easily spend $90 on a seat alone ! (also, if you have more than one car, or have grandparents that will be picking up the baby, you can purchase additional bases for other cars sometimes at the store where you bought the system or on line) Good luck!
