Great Travel Carseat
Bought this for a travel car seat and it is nice for the price. Light and compact, but comfortable-looking for my off-the-charts heavy/tall 9 month old. Very easy to adjust everything without tools, as long as you do it ahead of time and not in a rush. For the price, very adequate!

Lightweight, easy to install, and spaciousâgreat for travel!
I purchased this car seat for our little one specifically for travel, and itâs been a fantastic choice.Key FeaturesLightweight: This car seat is incredibly lightweight, which makes it perfect for travel. Itâs easy to haul around without too much effort.Quick Installation: Installing it front-facing is super quick and simple, which is a big win when hopping in and out of Ubers or rental cars. I havenât tried rear-facing, so I canât comment on that, but the ease of front-facing installation is a huge plus for us.Spacious: The seat is very roomy, which works well for our ever-growing toddler. Itâs comfortable and gives them plenty of space without feeling cramped.Ease of CleaningThe cover is easy to remove, which makes cleaning straightforward. However, since it isnât water-resistant, youâll need to plan for drying time if there are accidents and you donât have access to a dryer.

Comfy, basic, difficult to install rear-facing
This seat is plush and cool, so my kids are very comfortable in it. The materials are great, the size is perfect, the safety ratings are reassuring, and the price is amazing! This is a bare bones seat, though. It has no convenience features like an easily adjustable no-rethread harness, or a level so you angle is correct. However, that is reflected the VERY affordable price (about $85) The only issue I have with this seat is that it is a huge pain to install it correctly and securely in a rear facing orientation, especially if you have deeply contoured seats.PROS:- Great rear facing height and weight limits- Higher forward facing weight limit than almost any other seat in this price range, allowing your bigger kid to stay in a harness longer. My 4 year old is almost 45 pounds, so this 65 pound forward facing limit will allow him to stay on a harness for a few more years, until he is ready for a belt positioning booster.- Relatively compact size, with straight sides that make it easier to fit next to another seat.- Comfortable, cool fabric. Won’t absorb heat like a dark seat if you live somewhere hot.- Plush seat!- Machine washable cover.- Cute styling! I got the aqua blue for both my son and daughter and they love it.- Easy forward facing install.- Lightweight and easy to carry for travel.CONS:- Difficult to get a tight installation rear facing.- Does NOT fit 3 across in a Jetta.- Tedious to rethread the straps and adjust the headrest.- The button you have to push to loosen the straps is buried under the cover and not marked, so it isn’t easy to find and use.All in all, this is a great basic seat for the money!I use them as travel seats and back ups in our second car. This seat won’t work well for someone who needs to use it for different children, as it must be removed from the vehicle to adjust the headrest and strap heights. It also wouldn’t be ideal if you were going to be moving it from one car to another frequently, as the install isn’t as quick and easy as it is on models with more convenience features. But it’s safe and sturdy and does its job, and you really can’t beat it for this price!

Great value for price!
I debated what car seat to get for my child once he outgrew his infant car seat and love this one. I thought it was easy to install and fits well in my car. We still have it rear facing so it does take up more room that way but my 6ft husband still fits comfortably in the front passenger seat with our little one behind him. Other people reported some type of chemical smell but ours didnât have that. My little guy absolutely loves this car seat because itâs much roomier than his infant car seat. I would definitely buy again!

GREAT for the plane & traveling – subpar for a regular daily use car seat.
We bought this specifically to use on the plane ride and while on vacation. For the plane it worked perfectly (for a 14 month old). It is super light to move around and narrow so it fits in the plane seat.When we used it in a car, it wasn’t great because it is a fairly low quality car seat, it sits weirdly on seats so when our son fell asleep his neck tipped over really far and it looked uncomfortable. We had to use a second item to prop the car seat backward and make it the correct angle in the car.HIGHLY recommend for plane rides & travelling!!!!! Don’t recommend for daily use in a car.

Great for forward facing
This is extremely difficult to install rear facing in some vehicles (our truck and our SUV with bench seating)- we ended up getting different car seats because it was so frustrating. We had missed the return window and found that it is easier to install rear facing in bucket seats (grandmas suv) and very easy to install forward facing in any vehicle, and works great for that (when your child is big enough). It is slim yet very comfortable, and lightweight making it good for travel (I canât imagine lugging our Britax car seats through the airport⦠this Cosco seat is much better for that). Because of how difficult it was to correctly install rear facing, I would not recommend this carseat UNLESS you are looking for something forward facing.

Very impressed overall and will buy again
These are amazing! I just ordered 2 and they were easy to set up and install.- The fabric feels quality and easy to clean.- The latches are super smooth but not too easy that a child could open (I can do it one-handed which is huge for having 3 under 3).- The install was NOT bad! Did it take a little brain power? Yes, but so has every other car seat Iâve ever owned, and once I figured it out, these card seats were in there soooooo snug! Very stable- Removal was also easy because the releases are made super well!- Weight-wise, these are pretty light compared to my Graco convertible seat- I looked up safety ratings and these ranked equal to the graco convertible seat they my oldest is in!

Me gusto el tamaño y lo facil de instalar. Y el color.Realmente usa un espacio considerable para poder colocar mas sillas o si el auto es muy compacto.Pero no creo que sea apta para un bebé menor de 6 meses al menos pues todavia tendria que adaptar unas sabanitas enrrolladas a los costados de mi bebé para que no quede muy flojo en el asiento.

Es ligera, la usamos no como silla de diario ni para trayectos largos. Se usa en auto de familiares.
