what parents are saying
I like this seat, it's comfortable for my son and easy to clean. I don't like the anchor style that attaches to the seat. They are difficult to install. (May 11, 2017)

I bought these seat as it is a forward facing harness seat, high back booster, and backless booster. This seat is very wide and definitely not good if you have a small car or 2 or more seats in a row. Oct 20, 2019

Nice forward facing seat, Easy to clean but watch out for those babies who hid stuff in the side holes (learned the hard way with a bananas LOL) but Honestly I love it super safe and easy install! Sep 11, 2019

Great forward facing car seat! We love that it transitions into a high back booster and then into a backless booster. Aug 24, 2019

Originally I got this just for a grandparent vehicle but after checking it out I wanted one for our second vehicle. The cup holder is wonderful and saves a lot of headaches. Easy to install/clean Aug 15, 2019

I can’t say I hate this car seat, but I also don’t love it. My son’s neck gets pinched every time we tighten the straps if we aren’t vigilant about it. The seat always feels loose in my husband’s car Aug 06, 2019

I used this with my first daughter. I loved it because it reclines and it wasn’t bulky. I fit well in my Ford Focus. May 29, 2019

This seat is rated high for safety, is easy to use and will fit for a long time. Kids will love the cup holders and little cubbies to put their stuff. I love the solid install and ease of use. May 06, 2019

Went to this after my toddler was too big for his rear-facing seat. Works as a front facing 5 point harness, then graduates to seatbelt with upper protection, last remove back for booster! May 04, 2019

We love our 3 in 1! We have been using this car seat for oldest child for a little over 3 years now. It has been super safe and efficient as he grows from each stage. It is a little wide though. May 02, 2019

I have a carseat problem, I'll admit it. I've tried cheap up to expensive and I always come back to this one when my kids reach the age for this style of seat. Absolutely love this seat! Apr 21, 2019

This car seat is great! I really feel comfortable having my toddler in it and knowing that he's safe. I love that it has it's own little cup holder which actually fits his sippy cup! Apr 16, 2019

I bought one at target and I loved the price. The seat was plush. It held my daughter pretty good compared to my other car seats. My only complaint is the head rest adjuster was hard to adjust. Jan 06, 2019

Have been using for my son for going on 3 years. Even bought a second for my parents car. Leaves plenty of room in the backseat and I still feel like my child is safe. Apr 25, 2018
- Whitney B.
Largo, Florida
bulky but more room for my son to readjust himself since not all the paddling some have. cup holder liners come out thank goodness. Definitely get a seat protector if your seats are leather. good buy Apr 01, 2018

Lasts through many years. Very comfortable. My kids love the cup holders and little cubbyhole in the arm rest. It is heavy but very sturdy. I wish the latch connectors still worked with it. backless. Dec 09, 2017

We've had zero problems with this seat. It does NOT sit rear-facing, so it won't work as an infant seat. My son just turned three, and this seat still looks brand new. Dec 07, 2017

Not a baby seat as my child says. Easily adjustable. Installs decent, some seats with forward buckle hard to get tight. Fabric cleans up nice but needs a washing machine. Harness close together neck. May 23, 2017

I have the Nautilus that goes to 80 lbs with the harness!! Awesome!!!!!! The only thing that's hard to get used to for me and my son are the harness pads that are not removable. Nov 24, 2016

We love our nautilus. We needed extra seats but didn't want I pay the same price that we paid for our Britax. This seat fit the bill. It has served our almost 7 year old very well! Nov 16, 2016

My daughter loves this seat. It is comfortable, easy to install, has awesome hidey pockets, and a good cup holder. It is also lower profile than our MyRide 65 which is great for my husbands legs. Sep 24, 2016

It's a much better booster than 5 point harness. My son loves it and all the cubbies it has. Perfect as an extra car seat. Jun 30, 2016

Bottom buckles is too far back. Have to make my son uncomfortable in his private area just to get the buckle tight enough. Easy to install but not Worth it due to buckle issue. Feb 01, 2016

Don't love it but don't hate it. Can be difficult to install, boring cover options and my son didn't find it comfortable. Does convert to a proper fitting booster though which is nice Jan 29, 2016

Pros: It fits in our small car (Yaris). It's a 3in1 system. Cons: The buckle is finicky and difficult to tighten/loosen. It's a time consuming process to get it in and out of the car. Meh. Sep 30, 2014

Everyone-
Q: Im looking for a middle of the road priced car seat for a second car. Would people recommend this or not? Seems like a lot of people find the buckles tough to strap?
