5.0 out of 5 stars Good seat for a larger car, November 25, 2009
After doing a lot of research on different car seats, I chose to get the Recaro Signo G2 for our five month old. Due to our work schedules, we need two car seats for my husband's and my cars. I chose to get the Recaro first because of the additional safety features, and I wanted to see if it fit in both cars. I knew it would fit into my husband's four door 2009 Chevy Silverado truck, and it did. It is a wonderful car seat for his truck, and we can actually fit two adults sitting on either side with a center rear-facing installation. I love everything about it.

Unfortunately, we did not have as much luck fitting it into my 2007 four door Honda Civic. While it fit perfectly into my car, it turned out to be too tall with a proper center rear-facing installation. For one, it was easy to bump the baby's head on the ceiling of the car. More importantly, it partially obstructed my view in my rear view mirror. (I am 5'7" and my husband is 6'2", and both of us had the same problem). While I could 'mostly' see out of my rear window with the car seat, I do not find any obstruction an option with my baby in the car. As a result, I chose to get a Sunshine Kids Radian 65 as it is better suited for my smaller car.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recaro Signo G2 carseat, December 3, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I have made three outstanding purchases for my baby and this is one of them! The first and only car seat I had purchased for my baby was the Peg Perego car seat which we loved!!! It rated high in safety and was easy to use and very durable! I found myself disappointed that they did not make convertible seats and I was unsure of whether the next seat we would like as much as the Perego. But this is a GREAT carseat! My son loves it. He used to cry when we would first put him in his car seats, this one he has not fussed once in! It sits fairly high so if you have a very compact car, you may want to review the measurements. I have an Accord and it fits, but snuggly. It is plush, soft, classy looking. It is very sturdy and nothing about this seat is cheap. I have it rear facing at the moment, but in a month or two it will be turned forward facing. The seats are very soft and comfortable for the baby. I wish my car's seats were this comfortable. There is not one regret yet buying this seat!! I would recommend it 100%.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, April 18, 2010
What first struck me about the Recaro Singo G2 was its overall level of quality compared to brands like Britax and Sunshine kids, which for the most part are often represented at higher price points. Because the Recaro Singo G2 is of higher build and is at or below the price level of its competitors, it naturally is the best value. Honestly, the seat is so much better than the Britax and Sunshine Kids offerings that I still would have bought it if it was more expensive. For a seat that you can find on Amazon for $230 give or take, it should not even require much thought. The Singo looks and feels like a $500 seat in comparison to its competition.

Features such as the knob controlled adjustment for the headrest and harness, the latch system, and the actual harness are all very well thought out. The horizontal connection on the harness isn't this big obtrusive piece that covers the entire surface area of a child's chest and its easy to unlatch. The angle of the harness threatens neither to decapitate or fall of my child's shoulders. The latch system (to your car's seat) makes install very easy. Generous padding provides a child comfort. All in all, the seat's design allows it to fit children within normal size limits like a glove; I feel like the seat was custom made for my child.

As great as the Singo's features are, what I love most is that none of them were added at the expense of safety. This seat is designed to be safe, and every feature is designed to aid this function. I think it's about a close as you can get to design perfection, where form and function blend seamlessly together. Make no mistake, the seat is large but even the seat's relatively large size is indicative of its ability to protect your child.

Is this seat large? Yes.

Will it require a little more effort getting your child into the seat when its placed rear facing and in a car with narrow door frames or a low roof? Yes.

As uncomfortable as climbing into a NASCAR may look the payoff once inside is worth the extra effort; same goes for this seat.

The only real drawback for this seat that has been mentioned by many is the leg room (or lack of) it provides in the rear facing configuration. If you do have children with longer legs, they will need to be placed front facing earlier than you might like or forced to sit with their legs crossed. This is the one area that keeps the Singo G2 from receiving a perfect rating.

All in all, this seat is a remarkable value, is of the highest build quality, and has few drawbacks. Take a serious look at the Britax line and compare the two seats' chassis, which one is sturdier? Take a look at the Sunshine Kids Radian and compare side impact protection, head support, and ease of installation, which one excels in each area?

To sum it up, the Singo G2 is the only seat that makes me wish I could sit in it.
