I had a Nautilus 10 years ago and I really appreciate the new improvements that Graco has made. The 3rd crotch slot was what sold me because my son really needs the extra room in that area. The other improvement is that the harness straps are comfier and placed in a better position. Previously, the straps cut into my child's neck. The only negative is that I was expecting a lock off to use with my vehicle's seatbelt. There is no lock off but I was still able to get a secure install. While I prefer to use latch, my 6 year old is 45 lbs now so it is not longer safe to use latch. Finally, I am glad Graco offered a lighter colored carseat as opposed to the typical black seats which tend to get hotter in the summer.

We had bought this model for our daughter a few years ago and it kept her safe when we were rear-ended 2 years ago. Per the instructions, we threw it away and replace it with a new Nautilus 65 3-in-1 car seat. We just bought this one for our son (he was in a rear-facing car seat till now). It is easy to install and we know that it will keep him safe as well. Bonus: The covers are removable and can be washed in the washing machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This car seat is very easy to install and to use. I love that it has two cup holders that are big enough to fit the Yeti kids water bottle. I am confident that the seat will keep my son safe until he is tall and heavy enough to be in the regular seat.

I went from using a Safety 1st Carseat, which I liked alot, but it was such a pain to get the straps tight enough. My parents had this carseat in their car and I fell in love with it. My son fits in it perfect with enough room to grow with him. I've always been in love with the Graco brand so I should've went with this to begin with.

Love this car seat. Had the older version for my older kids and hit the reset button on my 18 year term and got a transitions graco car seat and it's awful. My toddler who loves to travel cried non stop in it so I ordered this one again and so far it's great.

We purchased two new car seats for our bigger kids, and were impressed with Graco's high marks for safety and comfort. The seats took a little more effort to install (it helped watching videos to get the seats installed tightly, as at first there was too much movement) but once properly set up, the kids loved their new seats and both promptly fell asleep! Recommended!

We had a Graco extend2fit and graduated our 2.5 year old into this, so that our 9 month old could have the extend2fit. Not disappointed, as we had a great experience previously with the Graco seat! I was looking for something that would still have a 5 point harness for now, and booster option for later. Only change I wish I could make is the clips for anchoring. These are the more basic hook style (which are hard to unhook) versus the quick release latch which we have on the extend2fit. Overall happy with the size and fit for our daughter.

I have been looking for a 5 point harness seat for my 4 year old that weighs 65 pounds but every seat we tried was too small. I wasn't ready to move him into a booster with lap belt so we gave this seat a try and we're so thankful we did! Theres still plenty of room to grow and my momma heart is happy knowing he is safely buckled in his seat.

I bought this as a second seat for grandparents car. I love how lightweight it is and easy to install. My daughter loves the little side pockets in the arm rests. They are the perfect size for a stuffed buddy. The only thing I did not look at when ordering was the metal hooks on the latch system. Our other graco car seat has the latch with the easy release button latches. This car seat has the flat metal hooks you have to work with a little to get out.

Love this carsest for my car in my scion XB. The only downfall is it tall and blocks the view in my husbands nissan frontier. But I feel the truck doesnt have much head room compared to most vehicles (my xb has more). And I dont know of any other options that would provide these features for my tall child for this price. If your vehicle doesn't have much head space, this might block your view more. However, not sure there is anything else available in a highback booster/harness that would be shorter. Other than this problem in my husband's truck, this carseat is perfect.
