Graco Extend2Fit 3-in-1 Car Seat, Talia, Pink

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this Graco car seat for out 1 year old for it's impeccable safety ratings. This is by far the highest rated car seat everywhere. When you have previously paid an arm and a leg for a nuna or uppababy product you would expect the graco to be a downgrade somehow in the materials or looks, but to be honest it is great. Baby is happy, safer, and more comfortable. There are certain small things though that are worth calling out. Though I won't deduct points because safety and baby happiness are the only things that should matter. First, it is hard to install. It requires a lot of tugging and I have to do it. I wouldn't expect my wife to have the required strength, and that is a minus for many people. Coming from the uppababy base with its super simple installation with self retracting latches or seeing my friends with their chicco car seats, this is definitely a low point Second, you can't change the recline after the seat has been installed. You need to remove it, change it, and re tighten.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter transitioned right into the seat. The only learning curve was for me. The chest buckle is harder at first to release because it's a little smoother and so when I would pinch it I would t always have enough pressure. They have it this way so as your toddle gets older they cannot let themselves out of the seat.
