Peace of mind — Worth every penny
As a first-time mom, picking the right car seat felt overwhelming. After tons of research, I landed on the Graco Extend2Fit, and I honestly couldnât be happier with my decision.- Safety:What sold me was the extended rear-facing limit. My son is tall for his age, and this seat gives me peace of mind knowing he can stay rear-facing longer, which Iâve learned is the safest position for young kids. The seat feels sturdy and well-built â nothing cheap or flimsy about it.Comfort:He actually seems happy in it (which was not the case with our infant seat). The leg extension panel is a genius feature â gives him extra room and keeps his legs from being cramped. The padding is soft, and even after long drives, he doesn’t fuss.Installation:I was a little intimidated at first, but once I followed the manual and watched a quick YouTube video, installation with the LATCH system was straightforward. The seat has a level indicator which made it easier to get the correct angle.Fit:Itâs a bit bulky, especially when using the extension panel, but it still fits behind the passenger seat of our Toyota RAV4 without too much trouble. Wouldnât recommend for very small cars, though.Easy to CleanWeâve had the occasional spill, and the cover comes off easily and washes well. Big win for any toddler parent!Minor Drawbacks:The seat is heavy â not ideal if you need to switch it between cars often.Harness tightening can be a little stiff at first, but it loosens up over time.

My favorite car seat!
WOW I love this car seat! We have 3 kids (5, 3, 1) and have owned 11 car seats. This is our first Graco – weâve owned/own seats from Chicco, Clek, Safety First, Maxi Cosi and Diono. Iâve installed varying combinations of these seats in over 10 cars, including our vehicles, grandparent vehicles and rental cars. This is my favorite car seat and hereâs why:- ITâS (comparatively) EASY TO INSTALL. All car seats are a pain to install but this is actually one of the easiest seats Iâve installed. The level is easy to read, so you know youâll get the angle right. The way theyâve set up the LATCH straps means itâs unlikely youâll get them twisted. I have no explanation as to why, but I installed it tightly on the first try, which never happens (even with the seats I know really well and have been installing for years).- ITâS COMMON. This is important for anyone that does run into trouble installing: because this seat is so common, itâs easy to find dozens of how-to videos on YouTube that will walk you through the installation and help you troubleshoot any issues.- HIGH REAR-FACING WEIGHT LIMIT. This is probably why most folks buy this seat and it was certainly a selling factor for us. The 50lb rear-facing weight limit means all 3 of my kids can rear face in this seat.- HIGH WEIGHT LIMIT FOR LATCH. This isnât something I even paid attention to until my kids got older and itâs important! You can use LATCH to install this seat up to 45lbs!!! All of our other seats only allow LATCH up to 30 or 35lbs, which means we have to switch to seat belt installation. Itâs not a huge deal but itâs a pain because you have to remember to switch the installation when your child gets over the limit (and actually remember the limit). I prefer LATCH installation so Iâm thrilled we get to use LATCH install for almost as long as we can rear-face.- NO RETHREAD HARNESS! This is huge. Kids grow fast and it is a massive pain to uninstall and reinstall car seats when you need to adjust the straps. With this seat, you can just adjust the headrest without removing the entire car seat. I love it!!- ITâS GREAT FOR TALL PARENTS! My husband is 6â5â and all of our rear facing seats have required him to move up his seat when driving… except this one! In one of the photos, you can see the Graco Extend2Fit is installed rear-facing next to Clek Foonf (also rear-facing). The Clek takes up substantially more space front-to-back than the Graco, which surprised me because our Clek takes up less space front-to-back than our other rear-facing car seats. Not only can my husband adjust his seat the way he likes, heâs got leg room to spare!- ITâS AFFORDABLE. Even if it didnât have all these other great features, itâs one of (if not the most) cost effective car seats for rear-facing to 50lbs. Now that I own one, I think itâs a total steal of a deal!- IT HAS 2 GREAT CUP HOLDERS. I was worried because one of the comments on here claimed that no cups fit in the cup holders. Our childâs water bottle fits just fine. Itâs snug but I prefer that because it wonât annoyingly rattle around when weâre driving. I like that there are two cup holders because kiddo can keep toys in the other one.- IT HAS A WASHABLE COVER. Just like installation, all car seat covers are a pain to remove and wash. I think all of our car seats have been thrown up on (usually in the middle of nowhere when we have nothing to clean them up) so I have a lot of experience in this area. Removing the Graco cover is just as easy to remove as other seats. Itâs not as easy to remove as the Chicco Zip line but we donât have to wash the cover so frequently that I feel like I need that feature.- IT HAS A PLACE TO STORE THE BUCKLES. Not all car seats have this and itâs one of my favorite features: there is a nice place to put the buckles so that itâs a little bit easier to buckle kiddo next time because they arenât sitting in the buckles when they get into the seat. Itâs a small thing but I love it.- IT ISN’T OVERLY HEAVY. I can barely lift our Clek because itâs so heavy. The Graco is certainly sturdy but I can still move it.Here is why we didnât buy it sooner (aka downsides):- ITâS TOO WIDE TO DO 3 ACROSS. Maybe there is a specific configuration that can make this work but we couldnât. Our Diono and Clek easily allow us to fit 3 kids across the backseat. We got the Graco because we finally bought a minivan and didnât have to fit 3 kids in the same row. Obviously this isnât a factor for smaller families or families with larger vehicles.- THE OVERALL APPEARANCE IS MEDIOCRE. It certainly isnât ugly but many other car seats on the market are more attractive. I also wish the straps werenât visible on the back.The pros of this seat far outweigh the cons. I absolutely love this seat and Iâve recommended it to everyone thatâs asked about it since weâve purchased it. Iâm really impressed by the features.

Safe, heavy and lots of adjustments
Very solid and heavy. Appears to be a very safe device for baby. We had a child safety employee from a local hospital install it for us and are glad we did. Many adjustments. Location on rear seat depends upon the vehicle. Perhaps we get better at doing so, but moving it between cars can be a chore.
Abhishek Behari –
It is of perfect size and very comfortable for the baby. Lots of adjustments and safety features. Compatible with all kinds of seats. Material of high quality and finish. Age range is also quite long so can be purchased early and will be suitable throughout the growing period.
