We purchased the black one first to install in my husband’s car when our 6 month was getting close to outgrowing his bucket seat. The quality is stellar. Matches that of the Maxi Cosi for half of the price. Padding looks very comfortable. Having a good quality comfortable seat for our little one is very important as we drive a lot. I purchased a second seat for my pickup truck as the bucket seat was getting too heavy to carry around anymore.
I got the seat when it was on sale and stacked my registry completion discount with it and got this second seat for an amazing price. I plan to buy a THIRD seat for my work vehicle once my maternity leave ends.
Fits our vehicles:
- 2013 Hyundai Elantra Hatchback - tight for the driver in front though as we have to have the seat up pretty far. We placed it on the passenger side for this reason. I imagine when it eventually gets flipped to front facing it won’t be such a tight fit.
- 2022 Chevrolet Silverado Crew Cab - fits perfect. Lots of room for the seat in front. No complaints with this install at all.
The install was definitely a bit of a pain. You have to bring the rear facing straps up under the padding and out the sides. Once I figured this out, it was fine but I did scratch my head at first.
Tighting the rear facing strap once connected to the anchors was almost impossible. I couldn’t get it tight enough. I ended up having to play around with it a bit tighten the strap BEFORE clipping the anchor to get it snug enough.
All in all, I’m pretty impressed with this seat. We will have to see how it holds up over time and I plan to update my review sometime later this year.
