 great seatNov 23, 2008
This is a good functioning car seat and my son loves it. I wish I would have bought this when he was an infant and could have used it all the way through.
 I'd buy it againNov 23, 2008
I have used two infant car seats, a convertible seat, forward facing and now this First Years True Fit Convertible. I decided on this seat because I found it rated highly on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website ([...])
and then from the other consumer reviews on this site. I never thought I'd leave the Britax brand, but I am glad I made the leap.
I love this car seat for my 24 lb 18 month old and here's why:
> Once installed, which was very easy to do, it is so secure. It doesn't jiggle around from side to side or up and down. I am using it forward facing with the anchor on top.
>Good recline. My son is able to fall asleep in the seat with his head back or resting against the side. Not to say he doesn't completely pass out with his head flopped forward. Not sure it's because of the seat though.
>Comfort. This seat has more padding for safety and comfort than any other car seat we've owned. I feel really good about my son being in it during our many long trips.
>It just looks good. I like the fabric and the color scheme. It has mesh and my son never comes out of it a sweaty mess like he did in other car seats.
I like this car seat so much that when my 5 month old outgrows his car seat I am going to buy another one of these True Fit Convertibles for him. I highly recommend it and you can't beat that price.

Great seatNov 12, 2008
I really like this seat and so does my 15 month old. The seat has nice padding and seems comfortable. The only negative is that the seat doesn't recline and so my son's head flops forward when he falls asleep. It was easy to install with clear directions.
Love the True Fit and All the Rearfacing Room!!Nov 10, 2008
By far one of the best seats on the market today!! Was very easy to install with LATCH or seatbelt. Perfect seat to keep your little one rearfacing longer. My 27mth old loves all the room he has rearfacing in his True Fit and it fit my 4.5yr, 41lb son wonderful Forward facing. He has tons of growing room in it too! I give it 2 thumbs up!!

Love, love, love...Nov 04, 2008
I researched for hours, days, weeks... for just the right car seat to fit the needs of my 5 1/2 month old little girl, who is over 100 percentile for weight and height, and had already outgrown her infant carrier seat. This seat is perfect. Although she is already too long to be able to use it with the head rest taken off, it is no bigger than any other convertible car seat that does not have that great option when head rest is attached. She was also too tall and big to still use the infant height insert, which is ok too, because even without it, she seems extremely comfortable in it. Even though it does not have multiple recline positions like others offer, when rear-faced, it reclines plenty. Never have a problem with her head flopping forward. She sleeps very well in it. The material is extremely soft and easily wiped clean, and was not difficult to install. You just really have to read the directions closely and kind of figure things out on your own as you go when the directions seem a bit unclear. I did have to use pool noodle to level the car seat, since it is a reclining bucket seat in the middle of the van and the seat angles, but you have to do that with numerous other car seats as well. I have that thing in there so tight, it doesn't budge. I can't say enough about the car seat- it is great for the price and the options. The seat is nice and deep, with steep sides, so I feel confident that she'll be safe in an accident if impacted from the side. Also love that when you loosen the harness straps completely when taking her out, that they can then fit over the top sides of the car seat so that they are then out of the way until you put her back in, then you can pull them down and back over her to buckle and tighten. Also love that I can keep her rearfacing until 35lbs. I would recommend this to anyone I know with a newborn/infant. I think that it would work great with newborn rearfacing with the headrest off and insert in since it is very plush and seems like it would be comfortable and fit the infant well and not be too spacious and big for a newborn-6 months.
