Short answer: no. :). It does change positions for the handle and the seat but it does not go back down flat (at least as far as I have known). I recommend it though, nice quality with plenty of space, my daughter stores all her babies in it all the time. GL!

No. This is not a convertible seat. It is a booster seat with 5 point system. The back raises up and down as needed to fit the child appropriately as they grow.

Yes- that's exactly why I bought it. I did the research and found it's one of the narrowest (&cheapest;) middle/friend booster. It really helped in my Passat wagon, and I had a child Britax seat (large) as one of the side seats. It's nice and light too to toss over the seat into the back.

Yes it does. It goes from newborn to 60lbs. I did a lot of research online about car seats. This one was rated as the safest infant car seat. It's pricey, but well worth the money.

The back comes off so you can remove the cover to wash it, but No this booster is not intended to be used in the backless mode.

No booster seat - it's one complete unit. Only thing that comes apart is the fabric covering for washing.

no, only infant car seats do that, this is a convertible car seat and stays in the car as a whole unit.

No. The convertible seat is used when baby is about 9 months old and out grown the baby car seat. My son out grew the baby seat at 9 months, he was 27 in long, & the doctor recommend that I switch him to the convertible seat. He will stay in this seat until he is 2-1/2 to 3 yrs old then switch to booster seat until 9 yrs old.

Boosters sit the child more upright than their previous car seats which are tilted backward. This would be like you falling asleep in your seat with the exception of the awesome sides on the headrest which comfortably support my son's head when he falls asleep in the car. Just like in your own seat, you can tilt his seat back and the booster will tilt with it. Otherwise the head could fall forward but my son always manages to seek one of the sides to rest his head as you or I would if we were dozing in the seat. Hope that helps!

You can use it as a harness/convertable seat also. If your child is past the size or weight of a harness, you should look at their booster only seat.

i havent tried it as a booster yet- my son just turned FF.it is pretty tall tho. i would follow the guidelines of the car seat which should be posted.

No it does not, but it's meant to get the child all the way to the point of not needing a booster at all. Hope that helps.

No, only with a front-facing car seat. This same company also has one for rear-facing seats on their website.

No. But it is a great car seat. We have two for our grandchildren who are ages 2 and 3-1/2.

No...the seat folds somewhat flat for transporting (i.e. putting into a large 33" or 36" rolling duffel as checked luggage) but it does not detach. We eventually got tired of shuffling car seats between 2 cars and ended up buying another pair of seats. After researching booster seats and finding out that it is still recommended to have upper body support, we chose the Britax Frontier 85 SICT which can be used as a booster later in the child's life. This is a bigger seat than the Radian but is a little lighter and has side impact cushioning for additional safety.
