Full User Summary
I got this seat at the recommendation of a lot of my friends. It is good looking, and has a high safety rating. Best of all, it is one of the least expensive on the market for the convertibility and longevity of use - up to 100 lbs! I couldn't understand the instructions very well, just feeling my way around the seat was easier than trying to decipher the jargon in the manual. I think it would be a bit bigger than I would want for a backward-facing infant seat, but that's not a problem because I already have an infant seat. I needed one for a toddler and it looks like this one will do and last for a while. She loves the cup holder and I love the fact that it tightens easily around her.The weird thing about it was the way it arrived - just thrown in a totally damaged box without any stabilizing packaging whatsoever. Luckily it didn't look damaged at all (amazingly) but I think they could have put a little more effort into making sure the carseat didn't get ruined in the box before even making it to me.

Strengths:	Simple features. Flexible head rest. Great arm rests. Wide seat.
Weaknesses:	Bottom clasp is too close to the back of the seat. Recline does not go back far enough when forward facing.

Full User Summary
This is a good car seat for the price. It has great features that are simple which we like. Everything works great. Our babies enjoy sitting in it. They appear very comfortable. Only two items concern us. The bottom clasp could be farther out from the back of the seat which will allow better seating. The reclining feature needs to be advanced because currently it does not go back far enough when forward facing. Besides those two items, we would definitely recommend this car seat. Thank you for a great product.

We would recommend this car seat to our family and friends. Its features allow great flexibility and use. Our babies love sitting in it. We wish the recline would be farther back when forward facing. When our babies sleep, their head falls forward. Other than that, everything else is great. Thank you for a great product at an affordable price.

Strengths:	Easy to install, great look in our car, used up to 100 lbs
Weaknesses:	Some of the moveable features are difficult to adjust at first, but as long as you read the instructions it's pretty obvious!

We are very happy with our purchase... the seat fits perfectly in our sedan, still allowing enough room for other passengers. Most moveable features are reasonably easy to adjust. We love the fact that it can last up to 100 lbs... much more than comparable seats.
