The quality is great and I love the super absorbing foam. However, we cannot use this item. The headrest is so thick that it actually pushes my child’s head forward out of the comfort of the car seat.

well, I almost didnt buy this car seat because of all the bad reviews everyone left. but I went to [...] and they had the same product (for $[...] more) on display, so I buckled my baby in there. And I thought it was great. SO I ordered it. the day it arrived my husband and I installed it and went for a drive.
So far….
1. we havent had any problem with the straps twisting
2. Our baby looks very comfortable, her head isnt pushed forward or flopping around.
3. the car seat cover IS removable
It is kinda big…for those of you with 3 in car seats it would be hard to fit them all in one car
We are very pleased with this car seat, and so is our little girl she looks so happy in it (before we got this car seat she would scream and cry the whole way!)
Dont listen to those peope who gave this car seat a bad review, because it is a great car seat, especially for the money!

I needed to buy my older son a new car seat because his little brother was going to inherit his old one. He is still small enough to require the 5 point harness, but soon will not need it so wanted one that would become a booster. I did a lot of looking and research, and this seat is just what I expected. I love it, and most importantly my son loves it! It is really easy to set up and install. My only complaint is the weight. With the base that doesn’t detach (has a cup holder if you are into that), it is a lot of weight. We don’t move car seats around at all so this should be no big deal for me. If you are someone always moving seats around it installs easily and quickly, but just be warned it’s a bit heavy. Once I installed this seat I realized how unsafe the old seat was. I didn’t realize how tight the seat could fit into the car, and I even had the old seat safety inspected! So I bought a second one for my younger son, and I feel confident that the two boys are safe and secure! By the way, my other weight concern is that we are going to have to lug two of these with us when we travel by plane. Even with that being said, I would definitely recommend purchasing this seat!

Once I installed this and put my 1 yr old in it, I could tell it wasn’t a great seat. I tried it for a couple of months because I really wanted to like it. I’m really sorry I went for the cheaper seat.
*The straps twist easily.
*The padding in the middle pushes my son’s head forward. No big deal, I’ll just recline it all the way.
*The recline actually pushes the bottom of the seat up so my kid is sitting in a ‘V’ position with his head forward and his feet up.
*In the recline position the base comes way out over the edge of the car’s bottom seat.
*Still not a huge deal until we took a longer drive and he couldn’t sleep comfortably. His head was flopping around with no support.
I finally just bought a new one and I’ll use this in our second car but not for more than short trips around town.

I was about to give a four, but the way my 1 yr old head fall forward when she is sleeping, I would give it a 2 or 3.I got this one( In orange) to be put in forward facing from costco. I have britax round( Rear facing) about in one car , and wanted car seat in other car. My 1 yr old head falls forward which never happened in the Britax.I am shopping for head support. We tried different angles, but the problem is safe. IF your baby is 20-25 lbs, It may not be great solution, After 25 lb or toddler, this car seat should be fine. In retrospect, Little pricier, I would go for Britax roundabout.and then after 40 lb , I would just buy a simple booster seat for 30 bucks, Optimizing a seat for 20-60 lbs may not be good idea.
