I have been a nanny for years and have steadily watched the progression of children's safety seats.
My last family bought this seat for each of their girls, a 3 years old and 2 year old twins. All three girls are different sizes and heights. This seat fit all comfortably. We picked these seats, mainly, because they were the only ones that fit in my backseat (I drive a 97 Saturn, SL1).
The girls often fell asleep and I found if I placed the plastic clip at the top pf their breastbone, their heads didn't slump as much.
I don't have the LATCH system, but my friend did. It was so easy to buckle the seats in with LATCH.
My daughter is currently 11 months old. I have debated about buying the Cosco Alpha Omega or this seat. But I think I will go with this one.

This seat fits Very well in our 1990 honda accord. The children who use it are between 1 and 6, and the only complaint we got is from the 6 year old who was upset that she was still too small for the pink turbo booster.

It seems to be the best one I have. Its certainly the sturdiest car seat we've ever owned.

GOOD POINTS:
~ easy to tighten and loosen straps
~ cup holder
~ easy to work chest clips
~ decent padding
~ sits in my car VERY well
~ is lightweught, but sturdy
~ is narrow enough to fit next to an infant seat(total of 3 car seats in the back seat.


All in all, we're happy with this seat.

I noticed that most of the other reviews seemed to still be using this seat witht he five point harness. I also bought my first one when my child was in a five point harness and was quite pleased with it. My child is now using it as a booster, however, and I no longer feel as if its safe. Even though I install the car seat according to the instructions, my daughter still manages (unintentionally) to work it loose and make it come out of the clip at least once a week. I know that my daughter wiggles and leans forward a lot, but I feel as if that is to be expected in a five-year- old and should be part of the design. It just doesn't feel right when I look up in the middle of driving and the seat belt is covering her face and/or barely hanging onto the clips. It seems as if just her moving can pull it out, the force of an impact would definately force it out.

I will continue using this seat as a five point harness for my 3 1/2 year old and my 1 1/2 year old (I bought three), but I will be buying a new booster for my oldest child soon. Despite the advertisement, this car seat did not "grow with my child" as I had anticipated.

I bought this booster for my 3yr old in March and he loves it. It was easy to install, the straps fit nicely, the buckle does not cut into his legs. It has a cup holder and a mesh bag on the sides. It also has a neck pillow for sleeping. Only bad thing so far is if you don't use the neck pillow his head does fall when he sleeps. I guess that happens with any upright booster though. Overall it is a nice seat and not expensive.

I bought this seat when my son was 2 1/2 years and have had no problems with it(he's now 4). At the time I chose the seat because it had the most padding for a child to sit on....all of the other seats seemed to have very little. It's very easy to take apart to wash the cover/adjust the straps. I love the LATCH system---I feel much safer that the seat is more secure. I find it easy to install in my van, but in my mother-in-law's car (Buick) we have a hard time getting it clipped/unclipped. The seat is very tight around the hooks and doesn't have anything to do with the actual booster seat. I would recommend this seat.....I bought a second seat for my second son who is now 2 years-old.

This seat is really great, my son loves it he never fights getting in to it like his old ones. This seat is so easy to adjust the straps and get the child in and out of. The side cup holder is great it makes my son feel like mommy. This seat is easy to install and it does not budge. I have leather seats so i have always struggled with installing, but we move our seats so much that now i dont mind. I love this seat so much i went out and bought 3 more for cars he is in. I do alot of research on products and i feel this seat is worth more than its price.

I did a lot of research before I bought this seat last spring,I'm glad I did because this car seat came highly recommended. My 2 1/2 year old loves it!! I feel very safe with this seat. I installed it (very easy to install)and it fit so snug and secure in my van you can't move it an inch. It's very easy to take apart and clean.(comes out like brand new in the washer!) I love it so much I'm buying another for my soon to be 1 year old!!!!!!!

This is a good car seat. Very easy to install, and very light
weight. The only thing that I did not like about this was
the fabric material. I dont know what it is, but it seems
not of the best quality when compared with Eddie Bauer
high rise car seat.
Overall I would recommend this.

I researched until I was blue in the face looking for the safest, yet affordable seat for my son. All signs pointed to this seat. This seat is one of the highest rated seats as far as safety according to reports. It fits my minivan perfectly, my son is very comfortable, and it is safe. I have no complaints.

A GREAT buy for your buck!

I bought this seat for my 2year and I love its very roomy and comfortable for him I drive a school bus and he's in it every day for four hours. its easy for him to get into and the cup holder is purfect for the sippy cups. I highly recomend Graco product all of his car seats have been Graco and i have never had any complaints.
