If you’re looking for a savvy car seat investment, take a closer look at the car seat reviewers across the internet agree is an amazing value: The Evenflo® Tribute™ LX Convertible Car Seat. Budget-friendly, the Tribute LX checks off your essential must-haves, from stringent safety standards and child comfort to ease of use. But that’s just the beginning. This dependable convertible features a compact design ideally suited to smaller vehicles and backseats that need to fit multiple car seats comfortably — owners frequently report they can fit 3-across, although that is dependent on vehicle type. Will you be traveling? Weighing just 9.4 lb, the Tribute LX is the lightweight choice for families who fly frequently or need to switch between vehicles often. Designed for children weighing 5 to 40 lb, measuring 19 to 40 in. tall, this reliable convertible takes you from rear-facing to forward-facing modes with a 5-point harness and adjustable, 4-position shoulder harness. You might not expect a no-nonsense convertible car seat to come with conveniences, but think again! The up-front harness adjust makes it easy to maintain a secure fit as your child grows. As your baby grows, the plush head pillow adds comfort and support for proper head positioning — and it’s removable when your child outgrows it. To keep snacks and drinks within reach on the go, the Tribute LX includes a removable cup holder that’s dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. And because messes happen, the durable, stain-resistant polyester fabrics are removable for tossing into your washer. Discover for yourself why so many families trust the Tribute LX as their first car seat and even their second car seat for grandparents, babysitters and caregivers.

Easy to install and safe
Got it for the price, as it is cheaper than most and we got it as a second vehicle option. It ended up being more comfortable for my toddler than the expensive all size one. Super easy to install and it looks more comfortable for her. Sturdy and firm.

Simple and budget friendly car seat!
I purchased this car set for my son who was 14 months at the time I purchased it. We’ve had it for over 6 months now and I am really happy with the purchase.What I Like:I love that this car seat was reasonable priced but still a quality product. It does exactly what I need it to without paying for a huge car seat with extras that we don’t need.It has a fairly narrow design, and fits in my car with a booster seat on each side. This was a must for us as we have 3 kids in our sedan. Also, I’m petite so a big bulky car seat isn’t fun to lug around or try to install.Not too bulky, but still seems soft and comfy. My son’s not a huge talker, but he hasn’t indicated that it’s uncomfortable in any way.Easy to install and uninstall when you need to move the car seat. Not too hard to get it correctly installed in a secure position.The strap tension adjustment is easy to use, probably the easiest I’ve ever used and I know my way around a car seat. You just push the button in the front bottom of the seat and pull the shoulder straps to loosen them, put the baby in the seat and buckle up the harness, then pull the strap on the adjuster at the bottom to make tight with the harness at the armpits of the baby.It comes with a latch system and a tether so you can use either option.The whole seat cover comes off easily and is machine washable. Let’s face it, babies are messy and tend to spit up, but the cover came out looking great after going through the washing machine.What it Lacks:The cup holder is pretty weak. We didn’t end up using it, one reason being that it’s in an awkward spot and would have probably been bothering my daughter in the seat next to it, and we couldn’t actually get it to stay on. Even if we could get it to stay, it doesn’t look like it is very durable.This car seat is supposed to be a seat for a baby 5-40 lbs, but does not come with any additional padding for an infant. I think a 5 lb baby would be way too tiny for such a large seat, but that’s my opinion. I like keeping my babies in an infant car seat until they turn a year old because I like to be able to remove the seat from the car to carry them and also, the infant seats just seem more comfortable for a tiny baby who sleeps all the time. My son was over a year and a pretty solid toddler when I purchased this, so it was perfect for him.Overall, it’s been a great car seat! We’ve been fortunate to not have been in any accidents, so I can’t say for sure how it holds up under trauma, but for us it’s been perfect. We were on a budget so the price was the main reason for choosing this car seat, but it turned out to be great! I like the simple design and I’ve been happy with the purchase.

Managed to get a leveled, tight fit w/out towel and despite being petite
We bought the Evenflo Tribute LX Convertible Car Seat, Saturn for our last trip the US over a month ago, since it was cheaper to buy a budget-friendly car seat vs. renting one from the car company. Plus, we also needed a second car seat to leave at grandma’s house. So far, I’m really liking this car seat, even over our more expensive Peg Perego Switchable 0+/1 (the European version of the Peg Perego Convertible car seat).What I like:- Safety ratings. Although we can’t personally attest to the safety ratings, after reading ample reviews of this product, it seems to have safety ratings in crash test that exceeds the minimum requirements.- Very light. Finally, a convertible car seat that weigh less than my 1.5 year old! This was a big factor for us in buying another car seat, since my husband was sick of carrying our heavy Peg Perego whenever we travel.- Easy to care for cover. My LO gets car sick a lot…and, yes, that means he sometimes vomits after long car rides. So the fact that we can throw the entire cover in the washing machine is a Godsend. With our Peg Perego, I could only spot clean the cover.- Release button was easy to use.- Contrary to many reviews who found this seat hard to use without a towel, I managed to get a leveled and tight fit, rear-facing and using the latch system. Despite being a non-athletic, petite woman (5′ and 95 lbs), I was able to use my body weight to get a good fit in our 2017 KIA Sorreto and economy Citroen car rentals. I think the key is to pull the latch threat from inside the car seat instead of from the side, so that means lifting part of the seat cover, which for me was not hard to take on or off.- Made in the USA (although the cover is made in China).What I’m neutral about:- This is a no-frills, bare-bone car seat (hence the lighter weight and lower price).- The padding is very thin, although the seat area has a bit more padding. Since my LO cannot really express the level of comfort of this car seat, I can say that he managed to fall asleep consistently when we drive somewhere for more than an hour.What I dislike:- The cup holder that came with the seat is practically useless. It is no longer as how it is pictured, and the new version–although it looks better–seems to have been made as an afterthought. You cannot attach the cup holder without the cover squishing over the opening. The direction also says you can only use a soft cup in the cup holder…I guess that means you can’t really use a sippy cup or most reusable bottles in this unless they are made out of styrofoam or very soft plastic.- If I don’t pay attention, I always get the thread (that you pull to tighten the seat belt) stuck between the car’s seating and the car seat, and it’s not always so easy to fish out after you’ve achieved a leveled and tight fit.- It takes a bit of space when you’re rear-facing so the front-passenger seat cannot recline or go back far.Overall, I am very satisfied with this car seat. So much that we might leave our other convertible car seat at grandma’s instead of this one.

Perfect for air travel!!
If you are travelling with a toddler via air travel , this is the carseat to get. I did hours of research trying to make sure I made the right choice and I did – we traveled internationally and went on 3 different airlines (American, delta, westjet) and the seat fit perfectly in the economy seats on all 3 airlines. Our regular carseat (maxicosi) was too big for the plane so this was our 2nd carseat purchase. Obviously cheaper price range so the padding isn’t as thick, but the buckle is very easy to slip through the back to attach it to the seat, although you need to make sure and place it correctly so it doesn’t cause a bump up against your child’s back. There is also a plastic flap underneath the carseat for forward or rear facing; I used forward facing for my 15 month old and put the flap at the front so he was slightly reclined. He went to sleep no problem and had no complaints while he sat in here! Its also very light and easy to carry around the airport! There are straps on the back that I used to carry it over one shoulder as a ‘backpack’. The straps can also be used to put over the handles of an umbrella stroller so you can hang it on something instead of carry it. All around, it took much of my stress out of flying with a toddler which earns this 5 stars and we are keeping it as a 2nd carseat for our other car!

Si buscas esta silla en Internet, veras que es de las recomendadas en foros, revisiones y el mismo Amazon, buenos materiales, buenas opciones de seguridad y fácil de instalar, le falta un poco de colchón en su respaldo de cabeza, pero puedes conseguir uno de otra marca.
Jose Villaseñor –
La verdad leÃ, muchos comentarios de este producto y también hice comparativa con otros, al final me decidà por esta silla y ha cumplido en todos los sentidos fácil de instalar, lavar y cuenta con materiales de calidad, se le ha dado uso diario y para mi opinión en condiciones rudas y ha soportado a la perfección, recomendable sin duda. Ãnicamente hay que tener cuidado con el dedo cada vez que se presiona el botón para aflojar el arnés al momento de bajar al niñ@, ya que de otra forma te puede lastimar.
