What parents are saying

AI summary of customer 50 reviews

The car seat received mixed reviews. Some found it comfortable and easy to use, while others reported issues with the recline function, harness, and fit. The seat was described as too upright, making it unsuitable for sleeping, especially for younger children. However, some customers appreciated the extended harness and ease of cleaning. Overall, the product may work better for older children, but many reviewers did not recommend it, particularly for infants and toddlers.

    Do not buy for babies or toddlers

    by

    I bought this seat a few weeks ago as my daughter is extremely tall for a 12 month old. Says this seat is suitable from 6 months however not suitable for sleeping in. She got so angry and tired when we went on a long day trip as she couldn’t sleep so upright. Had to sit in the back just to hold her head up by the time she finally fell asleep due to the extremely upright position. Doesn’t matter how much you try to recline, still too upright and dangerous as she will slump forward and cut off her breathing. Would not recommend and not worth the price.

    Very disappointed

    by

    I'm very disappointed in this seat and wish I had gotten something else. Luckily it was on sale as if I had paid the $600 for it I would be crying. It's very hard to tighten, even after a readjustment by the fitters at Baby Bunting after the original fitting the straps still at random go uneven. I cannot have it at a comfortable recline so my 3 year old can sleep without his head falling forward as I was told it needed to match the seat of the car otherwise the straps will get stuck.

    Nope - don't buy it.

    by

    I bought this a month ago, and will be replacing. The fabric was torn in the cover around studs out of the box, the 'crank' system to tighten doesn't work well and I can't get a good firmness. The harness gets stuck most times I try to release it (have had multiple fit checks at baby bunting and was reassured this would resolve and it hasn't). It's low quality material and make. Never buying this brand again. Absolutely not worth the price range.

    Good for older children

    by

    Bought this on sale for my 4.5yr old as we wanted to keep him in a 5point harness for as long as possible. Installation was definitely more complex than previous seats we have had but once installed it has been great.

    Fantastic car seat

    by

    We were looking for a fully harnessed seat for 4years old + not a convertible booster seat for our second car and got this one on sale. We have been using this for a couple of weeks now and I'm so happy we got this seat. I have installed a variety of different seats before and this one was hands down the easiest to install. The quality is great and it's so easy to use and adjust. We will definitely be getting another one once our other child outgrows their current seat. Although we love this seat I wouldn't recommend it for smaller/younger children because is very wide and roomy so it looks like it wouldn't offer alot of support for smaller children but it is fantastic for my almost 5 year old.

    Not worth the money

    by

    I never write reviews, but felt it necessary to warn other mums before they waste their money. This is definitely not suitable for an infant or young toddler if you're ever traveling over 30 minutes. I bought this a while back but could not use it until recently. I tried to use it when my son was about 14 months old but the headrest on its lowest position was not even close to the right position for him. Now at 18 months old, we've tried again, but the angle of this car seat is so upright, it causes his head to slump forward when he falls asleep in the car. We've had it professionally fitted, but the issue is that when you recline this car seat, it just creates empty space behind the seat, and when you go to tighten it with the seatbelt and anchor strap, it pulls it back into the very straight back position. My toddler now refuses to get into this car seat, but will happily get into the Britax car seat in my partner's vehicle. Maybe this would be better suitable for an older child or in a grandparent's car during short trips...
