Graco ComfortSport Car Seat — 

I bought this car seat and was excited about the cute girly print and pretty good reviews, and I always though Graco was a reliable brand. Unfortunately I'm afraid many of the reviews must have been written before using this seat for a while, unless I just got a lemon. First the pros:

1. Low price

2. Fairly easy to install latch system, although i don't think any are really easy :)

Cons:

1. The straps drive me OUT OF MY MIND! They get so twisted, and it is impossible to untwist them and keep them that way. They actually twisted inside of the plastic chest clip pieces, and I have a really hard time moving them. Not to mention i feel this makes them somewhat unsafe, as it becomes hard to get them adjusted and tightened at the right level.

2. 40 pound weight limit is low compared to many convertibles on the market.

3. The seat cover started falling apart. I only took it off and washed it one time and let it air dry, and it does not fit back on like it should, plus the material itself is ripping.

4. I had a problem with the pull-adjustment for the straps, it worked okay at first, but then after a while it would tighten one strap and not the other.
