NOW FOR MY PERSONAL REVIEW!
I
need to start by telling you that my son is a year old and 24 lbs. SO, I
cannot speak to the infant insert part of the seat. I am rear facing my
son as long as possible. We installed the seat rear facing using the
latch system. It was fairly easy to do. My only complaint would be
that my car seats are very slanted so I had to roll a towel up and put it under
the seat to make it level. I will say that is one thing I loved about my
infant seat. It had a part that dropped down to make the seat level and I
didn't have to use a towel.
The
shell isn't overly large. I actually went to Babies R' Us to try the fit
before I decided on which seat I wanted. I drive an older fairly small
sedan and it fits in there perfectly! Very impressed with the size. It is
nicely padded and the fabric is sturdy but comfortable.
My
son was super excited when I moved him into this seat. He was in an
infant seat prior. He has plenty of room.
I
absolutely love this seat. I will say I have a little difficulty with the
tension knobs. I have pregnancy induced carpal tunnel and the days when
my hands are really bothering me I have a hard time tightening the seat.
The knobs are also a little snug because my car is so small. I have
found that if I don't loosen the seat too much when taking my son out I have no
issues.
I
also love that you can remove the cover without having to rethread theharness
and straps!
One
thing I would suggest to Evenflo is to have the leveling arrow easier to find,
either with a sticker or have the arrow be a different color. Once the
seat was in the car it was difficult to locate the arrow because it was the
same color as the base of the seat.
The
straps have a slide feature for a great fit! Great feature!
