so-so carseatOct 26, 2007 this caresat is a pain in the backside to install rear facing with the LATCH system. The directions are confusing as to how to rethread the LATCH. There are much easier carseats on the market to install than this one.
Nice seat, good valueJul 10, 2007 I was a little hesitant with purchasing this car seat because I bought it for like $60 at Sam's Club. However, I have been pleasantly surprised with its quality. I started putting my daughter in it at about 5 or 6 months and she fit very nicely. It seemed cozy. She is now almost one and soon we will be switching her around and I'm interested in how it will work facing forward. The seat is really simple to readjust for height and weight as the baby gets older. Pretty easy clean up too.
Some cons I do have:
If you don't have the latch system, all of the buckles are really annoying and get in the way. I had to kind of rig them all together.
When the seat is facing forward, there is no easy way, without rebuckling to recline the seat for sleeping.
It is on the large/bulky side and barely fits in my VW Passat. The front seats cannot go all the way back when the car seat is rear facing. I do a lot of in and out of other vehicles with the seat and it is rather bulky to carry around.

Great car seat!Aug 25, 2006
I am extremely happy with this purchase. The car seat is very light which makes it easy to carry around in airports. Yes, it is also FAA aproved. The pads fit the frame very well and they are made of quality materials. And since it was very affordable compared to others, we purchased two (one for each car). We've had them for 6 months now and we love them (and so does our son).
EASY TO USEJul 15, 2006 Mine didn't come with directions (didn't know I bought it used) and I still figured out how to use it. Very comfortable for my baby AND my ability to get in and out of my vehicle. Like it!
Buckle A Little Difficult to UseJul 03, 2006 I am very impressed with this car seat because it was easy to put in the car and seems to be comfortable for my 7-month old grandson. My only objection is that the buckle is difficult to use. It snaps easily across his chest, but then has two metal, curved buckles which snap into the piece between his legs. These pieces cause the straps to twist and are very difficult to snap into the bottom piece. I have tried snapping them first and snapping them second and neither seems to be easier. I just don't think it is a good design. Try it out yourself before you decide to buy.
