We have this carseat in both of our vehicles and we love it.  We've had it since our (now 3 year old) daughter was about 6 months old and we couldn't be happier. It's got a great 3 stage recline for when baby is rear facing, and it sits up nice and tall for when they switch to front facing.

The best part? The strap adjustment. The way that the straps adjust is phenomenal and it keeps you from having to bend back baby's arms in order to get them in behind the straps of the harness. These straps loosen and then re-tighten with the turn of a knob after baby is in and situated. The knob clicks and you can tighten the straps much more snugly than you can in many other models.

The one and only complaint I have about this model is that you have to completely unscrew the back of it in order to get the cover off of the carseat. Talk about a pain! We recently had a car/vomit situation that was NOT pretty, and my poor husband had to completely dismantle the entire carseat to get to all of the mess. So, if it weren't for that complication, this would have gotten 5 stars all the way.

I also had a vomit problem - and had to dismantle the seat to remove the cover. Unfortunately, the vomit is on the straps and smell horribly. I haven't figured out how to get the smell out, as I cannot remove the straps from the seat.
