Great car seat for the money
on February 13, 2017
Posted by: MomLifeinPNW
I just recently found out I am pregnant with my 2nd child, so I was on the hunt for the perfect car seat without having to buy an infant carry seat this time around. This one works for all of our needs since its rear facing recommendation is 4-50lbs. I haven't put a newborn in this seat because he/she is not here yet, but I have used this with my 20 month old. It was super easy to install. The cover needs some adjustments once you take it out of the box to move the buckles properly, but it's easy enough to put it back together unlike my other car seat which was a pain trying to remember and figure out where everything hooked. The material is soft and super comfy. As soon as she gets in this seat, she almost instantly falls asleep.
I love the fact that it has an extended leg room adjustment because my daughter is in the 98th percentile for height. She is big for her age so we had to move her forward facing because of it in her other car seat. This one I can put her back to rear facing without her legs being all scrunched up. She doesn't like being rear facing after being forward, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
The seat harness adjusts by squeezing and lifting up on the handle at the head rest; was easy enough to find a setting that fit her height. Just make sure you hear a clicking sound or it's not set.
I love the head rest cushions which help keep the head in place when falling asleep so the head isn't falling forward. Just make sure you have the seat reclined enough. There's an indicator on the side of the seat that lets you know if you have it right when parked on a flat road. My driveway is on a slope, so I had to install it on the road to get it correct.
Overall this car seat is really great. The price might look high, but it's well worth it considering it's the only car seat you will ever need.
I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

Best Carseat I've Ever Owned
on February 15, 2017
Posted by: Cartersmom
This is the best car seat I have ever own. The Graco 4Ever Extend2Fit convertible car seat is perfect for our growing toddler. Our two year old seems to be slightly bigger and taller than your average two year old. He is in a size 4T and about 38 pounds if that helps paint a picture of his size. The best feature about the car seat is how much room it has and weight capacity. It has forward facing weight capacity of up to 65 pounds and rear facing of up to 50 pounds. We recently turned him forward facing and he is extremely comfortable. There is plenty of room to adjust the belts arounds the hips and chest areas, which I love because that has always been an area of this discomfort for him when getting fastened into car seats previously.
We found installation to be much easier than any other car seat than we have ever used. We have another child, so we have been through several car seats and this was the easiest to install. There is an InRight LATCH system to connect it to anchor the is built in the seat of your car, which is how I have The Graco 4Ever Extend2Fit installed on my car and how I love it. There is also a method for installing The Graco 4Ever Extend2Fit using your car’s lap or shoulder’s belt. Once the car set is in place, there is no moving around it is very secure. I also love the fact that we can recline it using the 6-position recline to fit to his comfort level as he grows. The seat goes up to 120 pounds and we can convert it to a booster seat when he is ready. It has 2 cup holders on the side, perfect for our growing boy. After raising two kids and buying multiple car seats, you grow to appreciate a product that is designed with both the parent and child in mind. My son was so excited when got his seat. He said it was soft and I can see he isn’t cramped and his head isn’t tilted over when he falls asleep. I LOVE this seat. I received this product free for my honest review.

The only car seat you'll ever need
on February 15, 2017
Posted by: MamaCaro
We got this car seat to use with our 4 year old. She’s on the smaller size so I wanted a convertible seat that would eventually turn into a booster, instead of having to buy so many different car seats.
When I received the car seat it was set up to use with a baby so it took me about 30 minutes to make all the changes so we could use it as a forward facing convertible car seat. I thought it was going to be a lot harder to set up so I am pretty pleased at how easy it was. This is a big plus for me!
There are so many features I love about this car seat. My favorite one is that if I would have gotten this when my kid was a baby I would have saved a lot of money because it would be the only car seat we’d ever need. Using the car seat in its different settings it’s so easy. You can easily the recline the seat back and forth and you can adjust the headrest with only one hand, making it very easy to use this car seat with 2 different kids or to adjust it as the child grows.
I absolutely love the 4Ever Extend2Fit because that additional leg room plus the fact that you can use it rear facing up to 50lbs makes this the perfect car seat for extended rear facing, which is the safest way to keep your kids in the car. We tried it with my youngest rear facing and she looked very comfortable.
The most important thing for me when buying a car seat is the safety features and how easy it is to use. I give this a 10. I buckled my child in the seat, pulled the straps and got a nice tight fit. My daughter loves this car seat more than we one we had previously and says it’s more comfortable. I also really like the high back rest and that my daughter looks really safe in the car seat.
The most dreaded part for me is installing a car seat. I used the latch system with our old car seat but it was hard to set it up tight so I was worried I would have a hard time with the Graco 4Ever Extend2Fit. However I was pleasantly surprised! It it took me literally 5 minutes to get this car seat in my car using the InRight™ LATCH system. The level indicator in each side was very useful to know if the car seat was in the correct angle plus it has a guide at the bottom so you know in which seat setting it should be depending on if you’re rear facing or forward facing.
Once I was done setting it up, I did the test of moving my car seat side and side and it didn’t move one bit.

I love how easy it was to set up because as much as you don’t want to move a car seat around, you end up having to use in another car sooner or later.
My daughter’s favorite part is that it has 2 cup holders, she says one if for the water bottle and the other for her snacks.
Overall this is a great purchase, the kid loves it and I love that it’s safe and easy to install!

The best car seat we've ever had!
on February 17, 2017
Posted by: JodiK
This is the only car seat you will ever need. I was amazed at how fast the installation went with the InRight Latch system. Most of the time I struggle installing a car seat, but this one was very easy. Within minutes we went from the box to ready to go! My daughter is forward facing, but they have included a great little easy to read level that lets you know that rear facing installation has been done correctly.
The simply safe adjust is another wonderful feature! The headrest and harness adjust easily with just one hand! I'm so happy that I no longer have to remove the entire seat to adjust the strap height! Which makes transitioning between kids easy to do.
My daughter loves the comfort of her seat as well as having 2 built in cup holders. She has one for her drink and one for her snacks.

This Car Seat is Amazing! Seriously!
on February 17, 2017
Posted by: TheTripletFarm
In exchange for my honest review, I was provided this product for free.
The Graco 4Ever Extend2Fit convertible car seat is amazing. Seriously! If I had only one child ( I have 4 year old triplets) it would be the last car seat I would ever need to purchase.
It is a 4-in-1 that can go up to 120 pounds and perfect for my son. The seat can go up to 50 pounds rear facing, but he is currently forward facing. I love that there is a 4-position extension panel that provides 5" additional leg room if he were still rear facing.
I was really shocked by all of this seat’s features. There is an InRight™ LATCH system for easy instillation and an integrated belt lock-off for basic seat belt installation.
It took my husband about five minutes to make sure this seat was installed securely! The Simply Safe Adjust™ Harness System allowed us to easily transition the car seat to fit my forward facing girls. They wanted to try out the seat too.
The position adjust button on the top of the headrest allowed us to easily move the headrest and harness up and down to the correct height. There are 10 possible height positions.
I read over the user guide just to make sure everything was perfectly safe. Often I find user guides a bit difficult to follow, but this one was easy to read which allowed us to find the perfect harness height as well as recline position for my son's age and weight.
I feel extremely confident that my son is completely protected in this seat. He says that it is comfortable and appreciated the two cup holders. His previous seat did not have any.
I am so glad we were given the opportunity to test out the Graco 4Ever Extend2Fit convertible car seat. I am excited to continue using the seat as my son is so close in weight to moving to the high back booster.
I wish these were around when we originally purchased our current convertible seats. I would have picked these in a heartbeat!

We love this car seat!
on February 17, 2017
Posted by: RealLifewithBabies
This car seat is really awesome! It is easy really easy to install and use. Right now, we use it as a rear facing seat for my daughter. We are looking forward to using it as a forward facing seat next. The great thing about this car seat is that it grows with your child. This car seat does it all with four different stages in one! I also love that this car seat has cup holders for my daughter to put her pacifiers, bottles, toys, etc. in because it is tough (and dangerous) to hand her stuff while I am driving. The only thing I would change about the car seat is that it is very easy for the cup holders to pop in and out. I wish they would click in and stay more securely.

Best Carseat Ever - Hands Down!
on February 27, 2017
Posted by: laceynoland
*I was provided this product gratis to help facilitate my personal review. All opinions are my own. I am a mom of twin girls and we have always used car seats that were safe, durable and the appropriate size due to having two in the back seat of my SUV at all times. I was given the opportunity to review the new I will admit that initially, I thought this would be a good product but wouldn't "wow" me as I thought most car seats came with standard safety features and more or less - looked nice with no difference in functionality. I traded one of my car seats that we currently use with the 4Ever All-in-1 Car Seat and immediately I knew this was going to be a great product. My twins each tested this product over a two week period and they both agreed that it was awesome! The seat and padding are very durable and have lots of cushion. Both of my daughters complemented many times how comfortable the seat was. The headrest is not bulky and fits around their head comfortably but was not in their way. The safety strap and harness system provided a snug fit but was not too tight and easy to adjust. My daughters thought that the features were also very nice, with the seat having two cup holders that are easy to reach for a young child, and easy to remove and clean for a mom. My absolute, hands-down, most favorite feature is the actual Extend2Fit™ panel that can be pulled out when needed. One of the constant complaints from my twins in their old car seats is how they dislike having their legs hang down and not being able to rest them comfortably. The 4Ever All-in-1 Car Seat does a spectacular job to fix this complaint by offering an additional 5"" additional leg room for little ones to stretch their legs. Easy to pull out and return to its original settings, this car seat impressed me with this feature for sure! I also love the fact that the seat will literally grow with your child and can fit young children through older ones. The weight range is from 4 - 120 lbs so you can literally get 10 years out of this car seat. That is huge! All in all, I don't think there is any other car seat on the market that is as durable, advanced and as well made as the Graco® 4Ever All-in-1 Car Seat. If you are looking for a safe car seat offers comfort and the ability to convert between a multitude of age and weight ranges, then look no further. For the price, it cannot be beat. I highly recommend this and am looking into purchasing a second one because my twins loved this car seat so very much

One Car Seat - 4 EVER!
on February 28, 2017
Posted by: SNSLIFE
In exchange for my honest review, I was provided this product for free.
Graco has given us moms exactly what we need. A Car Seat that truly grows with our child. The 4Ever Extended2Fit Car Seat is the only seat you will need, so it takes the stress out of buying a car seat at every milestone. From 4-120 pounds, this car seat can last up to 10 years with your child. Of course, you will need to keep it super clean, so make sure you keep some handy wipes nearby ;) That alone is worth the purchase of this product.
Some of my favorite things about this car seat are:
Simply Safe Adjust™ Harness System which lets the headrest and Harness adjust together! It has a 10-position adjustable headrest so you can move it around to suit your child. Nothing like taking a hand and moving the headrest and harness at the same time.
It LITERALLY took me a click with the InRight™ LATCH system. One of my biggest stressors was getting the latch set up in my truck. This was a breeze in the Bahamas!
TWO cup holders! One for a drink and another for a snack (or crayons, snack and a toy if your anything like my 4 year old)
COMFORT. My daughters are 4 and 6 and both took turns in this carseat (it's so easy to adjust for either of them) and they both napped in it. They love how comfy it is and now I'm told I need another ;)
