It is a super comfy seat for the little ones. This includes the memory foam and the reclining position. I have car seats for two other vehicles and this is far superior to the others that are also comparable in price.

I am not sure but mine did not come with any safety certificates. I would recommend the chair though.

negative. it is a hard plastic one piece frame designed for safety . It was rated above much more expensive seats for safety. Its padding is not as plush, but has worked very well for my 1 year old granddaughter. As a retired Deputy Sheriff, I have seen some very negative results of adults reclining their car seats and being involved in collisions. Except for rear facing infant seats I would be VERY cautious about having a child in a reclined seat.

I would follow the instructions and wait until she is 40lbs. That is the safest option. The 5 point harness car seats are the safest for every child. Britax makes one that can be used up to 80lbs.

It's not a problem at all. Our grandson is a year old now and we've been using it for 4 months. We've had no issues with the material and the degree of security with this seat is outstanding.

My baby just turned 10 months she is comfy in it. Especially after I took the pads off in the shoulders. I can't help you with the car but I do have a huge SUV and it's still tight but honestly any car seat is..... any safe car seat is going to be tight. Once you turn it around you will be fine. I put mine behind my seat which is why I say it's tight o can't move my seat back much that's my only issue hope this helps. It's a great seat I'm glad I chose it. Safest one out there beats all of them.

hello, i would double check its specs but i think it would depend on the kid's height. i have a 5yr old and a 3yr old, im not using it w my 3yr old yet although he is tall enough. i just figure that is safest o have them in a 5pt harnest carseat specially since most cars now have side airbags etc, hope this helps :)

I use this car seat for my son who is 3 (turned 3 in august) and he weighs 32lbs. There are multiple strap settings and my son fits well in this seat.

My husband, six-year old, and myself were rear-ended last night (13 hours ago) by a guy driving a 2013 Porsche Cayenne (1999 Camry for us). My husband and I both needed to be examined at the hospital and have whiplash injuries. My son was completely unscathed, scared for a moment but not hurt in any way. The fire department first responders took one look at Felix's seat, checked that it was installed correctly, and high-fived Felix, telling me that they rarely see any injuries in big kids in those kinds of seats. Felix is 6.5 years old, 45" tall. 45 lbs of muscle. He is not sore at all today either, but holy crap, I am sore. The fire captain advised me that even though the seat visually looks fine that the seatbelts have been strained and the foam is probably somewhat compressed so we should replace it. I am here to buy another one today. Worth EVERY penny for Felix to be completely unhurt and the guy who hit us or his insurance will have to pay for it.

Hi there! My son is 11 months old, 23 pounds and 29 inches and we purchased the seat just last month for him. My son is still an infant and I was worried that the seat was going to be too big for him. I was worried he was going to slip through the seat belts (so not the case). This car seat is AMAZING!!! I purchased the seat because I loved the fact that it has an extra side protection that reduces trauma by 50% ( I read that somewhere-I did a alot of research). That caught my attention and of course the majority of the reviews have been positive. I recommend this car seat to ANYONE who is looking for a safe and durable car seat. Yes, it's a little on the pricey side but it is well worth it. I believe that you will not go wrong purchasing this seat for your son regardless of his height and weight. Your son is the perfect age and weight for this car seat. If you are still not sure like I was, I made it appoint to contact a certified car seat specialist in my area (some are free others are just accept donations). They are there are there to educate you about the car seat. These specialist are always up to date with current and the most latest trends when it comes to car seats...you have my word, you will not go wrong with this car seat. When you have your son sitting in the seat and riding around in the car, you will feel safe knowing he's sitting in a well equiped car seat.. =D

Not completely sure, but it is a good size car seat and built so well, it says it can handle a child up to 100 lbs. my daughter loves this seat and so does my little grand daughter. : )

I am so sorry I can't answer this as the car seat is in Florida when my grandchildren come down to visit. All I can tell you is it was fine, easy to install and served its purpose well for the price.

It's 6 years from the manufacture date on the actual seat. The reason for this is the foam inside the carseat breaks down after time and becomes unsafe!

Not sure about safety ratings..but it is very secure!! My daughter can now reach it with her legs, but it still remained snug;)

It is not normal but it will not effect anything as far as safety concerns. It does have a 5 point harness system and as long as the child is buckled in properly, then it will be fine. You can contact Britax and have them send you a new one. They will need your car seat info. Such as manufacture date and serial number. They have a great customer service team and they can send you out a new one with no questions asked. They ship very fast also. Hope this helps.
