Safety 1st - Complete Air 65 Convertible Car Seat, Great Lakes 4.8 5 4 4
Amazing in an accident I do not have this yet, but I am about to purchase it. I just wanted to share with everyone possible the story of why I am choosing this carseat. A very dear friend of mine purchased this carseat for her son, just before a long trip. During that trip they were involved in a horrible accident in which they rolled the car four times and landed upside down in a snow drift. Her son came out of the accident with only some minor scratches from the flying glass. The doctor later told her that it was the air bags on the sides of the head on this carseat that saved his life. If an infant's head is jerked too hard in any one direction, their neck can snap, killing them instantly. This carseat provided enough support to keep him safe. For me, that is the best review that a carseat can give. I wanted to share this story so that others can know how important this air bag feature really is. 12/11/2011
A Great Buy and worth the price! I had been looking for a car seat that wasn't bulky or expensive. I had searched for so many different car seats, brands, and even compared prices. Then finally I came across this car seat and man do I love it! My son Jaysen loves it too! He gets so excited when we put him in the seat, it's so comfortable for him. It fits great in our Nissian Altima that is a 2006 and it's in the middle plus my husband and I can still recline our seats back. I had read some reviews about different things here and there but personally i only read the good reviews. When we got the box, you just take the seat out and the instructions are on the back side of the seat. I had no issues with the instructions, the only thing is that i had to put a pool noodle under the seat to recline it back more since my son is only 7 months. We also went to the website to get more information on this car seat and that helped us make this choice. If you are looking for a car seat that is inexpensive, comfortable for your child, safe, and isn't bulky...this is the car seat to get! 08/09/2011
Seems very safe and Secure, looks good. I bought this product because I like Safety 1st's Brand and most of their items. We had the infant carseat travel system so when it was time to get the next stage/size I went to Safety 1st site to see what was newest. Then I did research on the reviews online and it sounds like the right carseat for us. The car seat itself is very nice, good looking, feels comfortable and our son seems to enjoy it. It would likely not fit in a small car, I have a large SUV. Installation was pretty painless once you read the directions. We used the LATCH straps in the car to get it in. What I like about these car seats are the "AIR" pods on each side of the head that make the carseat appealing for it's safety along with the five point harness. Getting my son in and out is very easy. We went to forward facing because otherwise the seat is very bulky and would be difficult to fit and position, even in my car. We do not have him in the middle, he is on the passenger side so the side pods are crucial to have in the case of a side impact. I gave it four stars bc I hope I never have to find out how safe it really is and due to the fact that it would not fit into a smaller car so it's versitility is dependant upon your vehicle. 05/14/2012
