Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The true fit premiere signature series convertible car seat can be used from birth right on through to when your child is 65 pounds. The true fit adapts better and easier to more cars than any other convertible car seat, and offers the comfort and safety. The true fit premier signature series features the rebound energy management system. Managing rebound energy helps reduce the chance for broken bones in the legs, hips and waist that can be significant in a violent collision. The true fit premier is the only convertible car seat that offers the rebound energy management bar. It offers deep side wings that have been side-impact tested, a full EPP foam liner that absorbs energy, and the true fit features the NHTSA preferred external latch storage that enables consumers to easily locate the latch belting system providing a secure installation without the use of confusing locking clips. The true fit premier signature series also features a multi-position recline in both the forward and rear facing positions. The true fit premier is the only convertible car seat that offers multiple recline positions in a rear facing installation. The pad is extremely comfortable to keep your child content on short errands or long trips. And for parents' ease of use, true-fit has a no re-thread harness, which means less adjusting as your child grows. The true fit convertible car seat is truly the only car seat you'll need as your child grows.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect convertible car seat!, October 7, 2009

This review is from: First Years Premiere True Fit Signature Series Convertible Car Seat (Baby Product)

We recently received the True Fit Premier Convertible Car Seat in Blue Aurora and I think I may have found the perfect convertible carseat!

The True Fit Premier (like its sister the True Fit) is super easy to install rear facing at either the 45 degree newborn recline or more upright (35 degrees) for an older baby, toddler or preschooler thanks to the alligator style LATCH connectors and the seat belt lockoffs. The best feature is that you don't need to uninstall the seat to change the harness height! This makes it great for people who need to use one seat for multiple children. We also liked that the headrest could be removed for infants under 22 lbs to allow the front seat passengers more room when the seat is installed at the full 45 degree recline needed for newborns.

The True Fit Premier improves upon the original True Fit by adding an anti-rebound bar to limit rebound toward the seat back and a handy ball level with indicators for both the newborn and toddler recline angles. The Premier line also has super plush, high quality fabric covers.

In my opinion this carseat is one of the best currently available-- all of the features of a Britax seat at lower price!

This seat is AWESOME! I have the original TF and can't wait to get our premiere. The TF is wonderful in every way. The seat doesn't sit really high...thats a GREAT thing because a parent can look out the back window when reversing or changing lanes. The headrest does have to be added once a child is over 22lbs or near the red line BUT once the headrest is added this seat can be WAY more upright meaning 35 degree angle instead of 45 degrees, with it more upright a child can see out the window JUST FINE. Also the more upright angle means that there's PLENTY of room for anyone to sit in the front seat. In fact this seat takes up less room than our infant seat front to back. The crotch strap someone else mentioned as being tight...not an issue if you move it forward to the next position(it moves unlike some seats). Its great that the seat is so wide because it means the seat doesn't become too narrow at 5 or 6 like Britax Decathlon we have. This seat is MUCH taller than most seats on the market a good 3-4 inches taller than ANY Britax convertible. And the depth of the seat is GREAT..my son is over 100% for height at 42 inches tall and still has plenty of room to RF and all he has to do is barely cross his ankles. His legs are only slightly bent.

I recommend EVERYONE get this seat!!!

This review is from: First Years Premiere True Fit Signature Series Convertible Car Seat (Baby Product)

I am so happy with my purchase of this car seat! I bought it at Segals store in Beaverton Oregon about a month ago. I used to have an Evenflo Titan which is a crappy seat. This seat is remarkable! My daughter wouldn't have lasted more then 2 years old rear facing in her Evenflo but she has SO much more room in her True Fit. Its much more comfortable, the straps don't twist and are even (my evenflo one had uneven straps no matter what you did and they always twisted). I LOVE how you don't have to rethread the straps for this seat! You just pull on this yellow bar in the back and lift it up or down to adjust the strap height. And the cranberry color is such an awesome color. Initally I wanted a Sunshine Kids Radian but it wouldn't fit in my car ('89 Jeep Cherokee) but I'm very happy I "had" to purchase this instead. I reccomend this seat to everyone. The only "bad" thing I guess you can say is the 35lb Rear Facing limit. My daughter is 16 months old and only 20lbs she can sit in this seat rear facing without the headrest (she is well below the line). I think this seat will get me a few more years of rear facing (which is the safest way to ride!).
