Beyond Excited!!
on December 3, 2018

This seat was recommended to me because of the ease of installing it. We often times have to move car seats around and I was very excited to hear that I wouldn't have to fight with the car seat anymore!
My MIL bought one for my son a couple weeks ago. We've had it installed for a week so far. It was extremely easy to install!! I cannot believe how little time it took for me to install it! I was a bit concerned when I was driving home and realized it was loose because it was a secure install when I put it in. But it was super easy to open the snuglock and retighten the LATCH anchors. It took 30 seconds to redo it and we were on our way.
I just purchased another one tonight for our other car because I love it so much!! I love that not only is it easy to install, but I won't have to get any other car seat for my son. This will transition with him into a high back and backless booster.
Other features I love: double cup holder, buckle pockets (I can't stand searching under my kid's butt trying to find the buckles haha), and storage compartments for the LATCH and harness straps when they aren't in use.
I highly recommend this seat if your child has reached the rear facing limits!

This car seat was upgraded from the original nautilus post an accident my son and I were in. I loved the first one. But this one is an AMAZING UPGRADE ALL AROUND!!! I highly recommend this seat!!!!!!!! Incredibly happy with it and more so, my son is even happier and more comfortable!

Purchased this car sest last month after shopping for months. I wanted to be sure we picked the best car seat for our special needs son that would work for him as he grows. We are very pleased with this car seat and have no regrets or dislikes. We have 7 children and have owned many car sears over the last decade but this is by far my favorite and fits our little ones needs.

Easy to install!

We have had multiple car seats in the 6 years since our twins were born. These are by far the easiest to install and seem incredibly safe! And of course our boys like all the cubby holes and cup holders.

Great Fit and Relatively Easy Install
on January 17, 2019

This car seat came well packaged, and was very easy to assemble initially. However I did struggle to adjust the buckle strap so that my larger toddler could fit comfortably in the seat. When I say struggle, I tried several times over the course of two nights… And ultimately had to have my husband take a swing at it. Once everything was comfortably adjusted my toddler loved this seat. She particularly liked that it has two cupholders, one for her snacks and one for her drink. It’s very easy to adjust the head rest up or down, and the straps move and it just automatically with it. Snuglock is a nice feature, and the seat was pretty easy to install in the third row of my SUV. We have only tried it for my 34 pound two-year-old, but it also looks substantial enough for my four-year-old. I also think the dimensions of this seat are nice. It is not too wide, so you could easily fit it alongside other seats.
For the negatives: aside from the buckle strap being difficult to adjust, this seat is also slightly less padded than other brands we are familiar with. It’s something that I noticed, but my toddler hasn’t seemed to notice or to mind.
I received the product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Comfortable & Easy to Install
on January 18, 2019

I receive this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have been doing a lot of research lately on convertible harness booster seats. My 4-year-old daughter is too small (33 pounds) for a high-back booster, but we are getting ready to move our youngest out of the pumpkin seat.
First, it took me a few minutes to click the back into the booster when I got it out of the box. Once I got that, it was time to install it in the car. This was an easy process, but not quite as easy as some other seats I have used. The headrest adjusts very easily which I liked. My daughter jumped in and said it was comfortable. I could never keep her in a seat that she didn't find comfortable, so that was a big plus.
When it came time to get her out, I discovered the biggest downfall of the seat. I personally can not stand where the release for the straps is located. It is so inconviently located and hard to reach. Many times I am undoing her seat while holding a baby, so I really need that feature to be easy to use. For that reason alone, I think this seat will eventually be our secondary seat and not our primary seat for her.
