I was worried about buying this car seat after reading all the reveiws. I followed my gut feeling and bought it. I got this car seat about a week ago, and I LOVE IT. My son enjoys taking car rides now. Hes so comfortable. I like how the head rest moves up and down as the child gets older and taller. Its well made and really cute colors. It installs great in my grand am. Its also a great price for the car seat.

I bought this car seat as an upgrade for my two year old. I have the Eddie Bauer infant to toddler car seat and am looking for a toddler-booster seat for my boyfriends Suburban. I have a Dodge Magnum, he has a Chev Suburban. This seat is so "straight" standing that it will not safely sit on the bottom seat or will the back touch the back seat. it moves inches left to right and is not safe. The instillation manual is terrible. The pictures aren't helpful to accurately depict where the seatbelt hole is. I ALMOST rigged this seat up by installing the seatbelt strap behind the coushioning near the head rest and across the booster (under the padding), but being that this is not the way to install the seat as indicated in the manual, I opted to return the seat. It's a terrible design...kudos to Eddie Bauer on their infant-toddler reclinable seat but they get a big ZERO for this particular model. I woudln't be surprised if this seat is recalled. Buy it for yourself and try to install it...you may have no recline to your car's seats and in such case the seat may actually install without incident.

If you want a seat that looks good, this is the seat for you. If you want a seat that you can install correctly, DON'T BUY THIS ONE! This seat is IMPOSSIBLE to install securely. I don't know if it's the armrests or where the latch is located, but it is a struggle to try to get this seat installed.
