  • Outgrown way too fast. My daughter was tiny and still outgrew before age 4. Difficult to install. Sep 13, 2022

    • Pointe-Claire, Canada

    I have a small car, so I did a lot of research to find the right seat for our growing child. This one fits the bill. It's cozy, fits in my small car and has lastesd quite a long time for a great price May 11, 2022

  • It's sturdy but when washed it is hard to put it back together again. The velcro part under the headrest keeps coming out. Mar 12, 2022

    • Seneca, South Carolina

    This is my first convertible carseat, but I found it VERY difficult to install rear-facing. That being said, baby is much happier in it than in her infant seat so I guess it is comfy. Jan 25, 2022

  • This is a great option for families who don't want to drop a ton of money on a seat. It's comfortable and not too bulky. It can easily fit 2/3 in a row depending on the vehicle. Great buy. Oct 18, 2021

  • It didn't have all the bells and whistles that other car seats have, but it worked and was comfortable. Jul 28, 2019

  • I hate this seat! It was so hard to install, the straps would get twisted, the chest clip is so long it would poke the kid and it was really uncomfortable between their legs. May 04, 2019

    • Willingboro, New Jersey

    Great for small cars!!! Feb 27, 2019

  • We have used this car seat with all of our kids after they transition from their baby car seat and are still rear facing. It is comfortable and has stayed in really good condition, we have loved it! Jan 11, 2019

  • Good size, lightweight, fits well in a smaller car with 3 carseats, but due to the fixed recline it can’t be behind the drivers seat in either car. Cover is easy to take off and wash. Jan 01, 2019

  • Leg position seems a little less comfortable for small children but great price when we got it. Lightweight and easy install Oct 25, 2018

  • This is an excellent car seat for travel. It is light weight and basic, it fits well on an airplane seat. I like that it has some head support. It is easier to install with a seat belt than anchors. Jul 11, 2018

  • Dad bought this so I didn't have a say. It wouldn't have been my choice. It has served its purpose. I hated taking it off to wash for the price it was ok. May 30, 2018

  • Very happy with this seat, easy to clean, easy to use. So far it still fits my almost 3 year old that is in the 95th percentile so very large for age. May 03, 2017

  • I cannot say that I like anything about this seat. It is uncomfortable, pushes head forward and causes slump. It is not very lightweight for the price range. Jan 31, 2017

  • For being one of the lower costing car seats, it did not disappoint whatsoever. It wonderful! Jan 23, 2017

    • Fia M.

    It's a great car-seat for the price, light and easy to install, but hard to keep properly angled in my 2000 Ford Taurus (with seatbelt instead of hooks.) It fares better in my husband's newer Toyota. Nov 28, 2015
