" ...  For my grandson, we have 3 of these car seats.  ...  "

" ...  It fits in my 2013 Volkswagen Jetta with enough space. ... I have another convertible car seat and a booster seat in side my car.  ...  "

comment
" ...  Overall love the car seat. ... I love that it has a spot to hold the straps out of the way while you are getting your child in the seat. ... I found that once I have my little guy strapped in if I first tighten the straps from the back of the seat (we are still rear facing) it becomes much easier to tighten. ... Grab right above the metal piece that is holding the straps on the back of the seat and then pull down, this pulls most of the slack and you are able to tighten the harness, then make your adjustments to the chest clip and shoulder pads etc. ... and then a final pull to tighten. ... This has made the process much easier to get the right fit without feeling like you need to be He-man to do it. ... However, I was able to find a water bottle to fit! ... It was about $10 bucks and fits perfectly!  ...  "

comment
" ...  Pros: * Cupholders are very useful and in a good position * Head cushion and height easy to adjust * The hassle-free pockets that hold the buckles to the sides are very useful * Instructions are easy to understand ... I just wish I had an easier time tightening the belt and releasing it.  ...  "

" ...  My older kids are always comfortable and are still rear facing with plenty of room for their legs. ... This car seat has lots of comfortable padding and I love them padded inserts because when my kids spill something or have an accident it typically doesnt seep all the way into the seat itself & I can just take the padded inserts out and wash them, which is much easier to do than remove everything off of the car seat.  ...  "

" ...  You will still need an infant seat because this isn't removable but it's safe!  ...  "
comment
" ...  I like several things better about this car seat, one its cheaper lol, two, the crotch buckle strap is longer! ... Three the side pieces that go to the crotch buckle are easier to dig out. ... Four, the strap adjustment is so hard to use in the chicco and so easy in this seat.  ...  "
