love it

I had to have a friend help install it properly with the permanent attachment straps, but once it was in, it has functioned perfectly. We even managed to adjust the height while the seat was still installed. My 2 1/2 yr-old daughter is comfortable, and I feel she is safe and secure. The straps are very easy to adjust from the front. So, depending on how much she is wearing, I can loosen or tighten daily if necessary.

It is easy to get her in and out of this car seat since it is not very bulky like some others. I was so grateful after transitioning from our old, bulky convertible car seat. The buckle is also easy to open and close. My daughter knows how to buckle herself (and prefers to do it herself), which is nice sometimes. However, they are made so that the child can not undo the buckle without assistance, thankfully.

I am sure that this car seat will last until she no longer needs one. It seems very durable. The dark blue color is also nice because it doesn't show up dirt very badly. With kids, dark colors are preferable. When she has grown out of it, my younger daughter will end up in it. It is actually more like a part of our vehicle now.
