I wouldn’t have even tried this carseat, but I had a giftcard and was able to get it for 39.98 with free shipping and handling. That being said, I was totally surprised with the quality of the seat. My son, at 4 1/2 months, weighs a solid 18 lbs and his infant seat doesn’t adjust any farther to accomodate him. He’s not a fat baby, but his weight and height make him look more like a 7-8 month old and I wouldn’t expect to see a baby that age in an infant seat. I would have like to have purchased a Britax or Recaro but didn’t have the funds at the time, and needed something right away for Evan to ride in. This seat is heavy duty, large but still fits in my tiny little car, easy to adjust and install, has a removable/washable cover, and is a great buy since it is convertible three ways. Plus it has a cupholder that clips onto BOTH sides, unlike some other carseats I’ve seen!
The only downsides I can think of are 1) the black material is heavy and kind of ‘felty’ and I can imagine it would get warm in the summer, and 2) it doesn’t have a lot of padding in the seat area, which is fine for older kids who will use it as a booster but I would have liked a little more for Evan at this stage. If you are a little leery about buying a convertible seat this inexpensive, don’t sweat it, because this really is a great buy.

First, Amazon is wrong. This seat is NOT APROVED for over 40 lbs. DO NOT USE AFTER 40 lbs.
That said, we use this frequently as a second seat and it is pretty easy to use, fits my 2 yr old son well, and the price is great. There isn’t a lot of padding, so I wouldn’t use it daily; however, my son has never complained about it. My only complaint would be that the straps twist easily, so you have to fix them nearly every time.

No compaints at all after a few months of use. I definitely recommend this product… but look elsewhere. Amazon’s price – $79. Walmart’s price – $39. Same product.

I like this seat so far. I wanted an affordable seat for my 3 yr. old son and I wanted one with a cup holder (because his big brother’s booster seat has one). The seat seems comfortable and is belts are fairly easy to latch and unlatch. I sometimes have trouble with the release between his legs, probably from trying to do everything with one hand while holding something else in other hand! Easy to adjust strap length………My only complaint is the cup holder, it’s junk and won’t stay attached to the seat. I read and re-read the directions but I can’t get it to stay on.

This is wonderful and easy to use product. I’m very happy with this purchase and have recommended to several other parents. I was skeptical at first because of the price, but it’s sturdy light weight and easy to adjust, and that comes with this product along with a piece of mind that your kid is properly secured.
