Will this seat suit my child until a car seat is no longer required?

I think so based on the weight limit, it will fit at least up to six or seven. I am not sure what the legal age limit is these days but you may need just a booster seat later on.

My grandson will be 5 soon and loves it!! It sits lower than a regular seat, more like a booster seat. Should work until child is old enough or large enough to not be in safety seat

It does accommodate our Baby Trend car seat. But please see my review of this product before you purchase. We had it less than a month before it broke. I returned it and went with an UppaBaby stroller instead.

6-9 months, if the child can sit then it will be fine. The shoulder and lap harness keeps my child in...nice & snug

Regardless of the brand of carseat, you will have the same problem. My son is now 15 months, and we had to turn him around today because he just won't fit rear facing anymore...

My daughter was to long for her seat at four months and we had to get a convertible seat that stays in the car. at six months she still isn't sitting on her own so we just use the cart the have the built in babyseat and that works just fine.

The specs say yes, but I would recommend this be a car seat for 6 months plus. It didn't recline enough for an infants needs, in my opinion. It is a great car seat.

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.

It seems to be comfortable. My 4 yr old son has no problem with it. It is very easily removed if you want it to be. Love this car seat.

Yes, we are using it for our 29 month old son in a rear facing position. He will be rear facing in it unitl he out grows the limits for it, and then we will most likely use it for our four year old daughter because it has a higher harness level than our Graco Nautilus so we will be able to harness her much longer. LOVE LOVE LOVE this car seat!

There is plenty of room. But it has a strap that goes over the back of the seat and needs to hook on to something. Just like a regular car seat.

Oh yeah, definitely time. My baby was a year and she's very tiny, fifteenth percentile, but she fits just fine. Your baby will be a lot more comfortable in a toddler seat. Mine was anyway.

You have to buy a separate carseat adapter - there is a special for Chicco car seats. My son is over 37" and fits fine! I have the canopy in the lowest position, too, so my daughter can see over his seat better from the back seat (I use it as a double with two seats facing forward usually). No complaints about room, but there is still more room for him to grow since we can put the canopy higher!

yeah the seat is big and tall, occupies nearly half of the back seat of car, and doesn't left much space to the top of the car . What you have concerned is very reasonable, I can hardly imagin that a maybe 5 yr old child sit in it. You can choose some simple design and slimer car seat, but it might not as comfortable as this one.

It will!! The only thing is, it's a little high, so your child will have to sit straight up. Still, I bought it for my B-ready when my little one was 8-mo old and I've never regretted it!

I would have to say yes. There are a few areas with extra padding that can be kept in place, when your child is still very small, and removed as your child grows. The padding at the very bottom of the seat will hold your young guy very nicely. I bought this for my son and he loves it, and so do I. This is really the one car seat that can grow with your child, without having to buy multiple seats as they grow.

There are tons of factors... It depends on your car seat, where the seat is, how long you child's arms are. My 17 month can not reach it, but I like it that way.

I got this seat for my son at 1 years old. He was 23 lbs and 32" your child is at min weight but he may not be ready to sit in this seat. In my opinion he's very young. Plus I think he still needs to face the back of the car. If you like this kind of seat I would get one with the recliner feature. So he sits a bit craddled. I would do a bit more research.
