NOV

2007

After doing months of research on the safest carseat available, I chose this and was glad I did. It was a little more expensive than other newborn carseats but it had the safest ratings and it had the Flex-Loc base feature. I bought 3 bases and installed them in my car, my parents' car, and my babysitter's car. This was very convenient because the seat snapped in and out of the bases with zero installation time and stayed locked in place very securely. Switching a base to a different car was quite a hassle though, especially if it was an older car without the anchors. Also I found the straps difficult to use, they were constantly twisting and impossible to adjust length quickly. The handle was difficult to switch from the up and down positions, but it seemed much sturdier than other carseat handles, and the top is a triangle shape that makes it easier to carry at your side. When I bought this carseat it came with a stroller that the carseat snapped into and the stoller is absolutely wonderful, perfect in every way.
