I've tried with both the anchors and/or the seatbelt to tighten the seat and it still moves. Feels so unsturdy and dangerous. Save your money and buy a different one.

For the price, this is a steal! It’s sturdy and moderately easy to install. I love the dual cup holders and my toddler loves the soft restraint covers. It’s going to grow with him which makes it even better.

I bought this for my 2021 girl when she was about 6 months old, another one a few months later for our other car, and my mom purchased one as well for when we visit. The first one was the previous model and the other two are the newer one. They are a little difficult to install rear-facing (all the 1 star reviews definitely just didn’t watch a tutorial on YouTube on how to install properly) but a really good seat! My girl is 2.5 years now and still going rear-facing! Easy to wash too!

The reviewer that wrote that the seat is dangerous because the seat will not tighten down, has a valid point. My son is 6'5 and 230 and he can tighten it down. I had to have help. The problem is that the buckle requires way too much" pull" for mere mortals to get it tight. Adult car seat belt buckles tighten easily and smoothly. These do not. If your car has a very soft seat (few do) so the car seat can be forced into the seat to relieve the stress on the strap, the buckle can be tightened. (Or if you are 6'5" and 230 lbs.) Second, the instructions are 60 pages and cell phone size. They should print the instructions on 8 1/2 x 11 sheets so the diagrams are intelligible. At the least the company should produce an INSTALLATION VIDEO. Installation is simple, once you figure it out.

Great seat, my son is very comfortable in it. My high and low is that the cup holders are actually detachable, which is good, until my son figured it out and now just likes to twist them until they come off. I guess my only recommendation is to keep the detachable cup holders, just make them harder for kids to undo them, maybe like a pop in lock or you have to push a button to remove the cup holders

The car seat is beautiful and looks comfy but the angle of the seat doesn't work in my Explorer or my husband's Cruze. Doesn't tilt back enough for infants. I'm sure it's great for older kids, but I think we'll be returning this. For the record, our baby is 4 months old and 98th percentile in height, and it's even too much for her.

So great price. It's decent. Is it as good as a Chicco? Nope. But chiccos cost 300 plus. I put this for my 3 year old front facing. I used the 3 hook points plus I looped the seat belt through it and that made it pretty solid. The seat belt gave It the little extra. Just read the directions and follow the steps. I feel most parents don't read directions and can't figure it out. Just take your time. I give it a 8 out of 10. Now rear facing I haven't tried.

We use one car primarily and it has a nicer car seat but I wanted a car seat in our second car but didn't want to spend the money on another nicer one so we grabbed this one. I should have just spent the extra money on a better one. For some reason I can't seem to get this one tight in the car. I use the clips to hook to the brackets between the seat bottom and the seat back-rear facing-and no matter how tight the strap is, it still slides around on the seat a ton. The pull strap to tighten the harness is also finicky. There will be a lot of slack in the harness but the strap doesn't feel like it will tighten any, then as I'm pulling on it, it will sort of jump and be too tight. The cup holders also fell off constantly. They twist into place but are pretty loose and I ended up having to glue one into place. Our 3 year old also complains that the seat is uncomfortable and she likes the other seat more. I don't care much if we're just running to the store but I wouldn't make her sit in it for a long drive. Ultimately I'm worried that it's not safe because of how much it moves around even when it's as tight as I can get it so I'm going to end up spending the money on a better seat and acknowledging that this was a waste of $100.

Bought this several months ago. It is good for the price and I do like the color options they have. It was on the cheaper end of carseats, so I went ahead and bought it. Much lighter than I thought the box probably weighed the same amount. The cupholders come out of it too easily. I have another brand of carseat for my other little one and it feels much sturdier. there is a space behind where the cupholders are and my baby swings her leg over it and sits in there that way, which I wouldn't see how that was safe to make a carseat that way.

We love this car seat! We received one at our baby shower for my car, my husband had the infant seat in his car. We just bought this seat for my husband's car as kiddo is to big for the infant seat. Kiddo likes this seat more than the infant seat or another brand car seat we tried out. Will purchase again.
