Will this seat work for a one year old? Need a seat for a visiting child.

Listen to Scmoopy. Much safer to rear face at that age. And like he/she said, you can get a Cosco rear-facing seat for less. Don't take the risk.

You "can," but I wouldn't. It's actually quite dangerous to forward face a child before 2 because their heads are disproportionately large and neck muscles are quite weak. It can cause internal decapitation as well other injuries in the event of a serious crash. A convertible Cosco would be safer (in the rear-facing position) and cheaper for the visiting child. $39 at Walmart.

No, a child should rearface until 2 but closer to 4 is the best. You are better off buying on convertible car seat that rear facing and then forward faces later.

Yes, I purchased the seat for my 1 year old Granddaughter who was visiting. Please ensure that you are in compliance with the age / weight requirements since its a front facing seat. I took it to our local Sheriff dept and they installed it for free. I am very pleased with this purchase. Even after my granddaughters visit, its still in my car....matches the interior perfectly :)

I love this seat, but PLEASE DO NOT put a 1 yr old in it! In fact, no child under 3 should be in it due to it being a ff seat. They should be kept rear facing as long as possible. *EMT-B and Car seat safety specialist

I would say yes. I LOVE this seat. My child was 1.5 when we got it but I think it would be fine for any child who can sit up and is very stable. Your arms will wrap around them as you hold the handle bars and keep them safer :)

This seat has instructions to face your child forward at 1 year of age and/or 20 pounds weight whichever comes last. With that being said I think depending on the vehicle you may have a hard time fitting the child rear facing at that size plus in addition to that they will not have any leg room either. My 9 month old only has a couple inches between his feet and the back of the seat.

I think so. It's supposed to be for children 2-6 I think but it is WAY too big for even our 4 year old grandson when the seat is pushed as far forward as possible.

This would be great for a one year old. It is very sturdy so it will last for years. Also, the the shatterproof mirror is clear. Your 1 year old will love it as my 3 year old granddaughter does.

I used this for my mother-in law when she visited but my five year old daughter loved sitting in it. I' m not sure how old your child is but they will fit. I do recommend getting a seat cushion with padded sides to make it more comfortable for them. Hope this helps.

I didn't save the packaging to know a weight limit for the small child seat. My daughter is 21 months old and it seems to work just fine for her.

It is a larger seat, so I would personally skip it. How old, tall, and heavy is your child and how much are you wanting to spend on a seat? I could recommend something more compact.

This chair is for a child that is already sitting up on their own and preferably walking. It is not designed for an infant, it is made to use for a toddler and ages up. A child should be able to climb in to the chair on their own in order to use. It tips over easily so do not put an infant in this chair.

Yes, this stroller should work well for you. I purchased for my twins, who are now 1 year old and have used mostly because we live in a very hilly area and didn't want to lug our big stroller w/ car seats attached around neighborhood / and also use for pediatrician visits. But this stroller is light weight and folds easily, so should work well for traveling. Sun visors are on the light side, so they don't hold up well in the wind, but other than that it's a good stroller.

Yes, there are 2 different slots. I'm not sure what child would fit comfortably in the smaller slot though, I'm guessing those parents who put their 1YOs in forward facing would probably need that slot. Both my children have this seat, we love it, and they're both in the wider slot, 1 is almost 4 and 1 is almost 2.

Our daughter was only 18 months old when we gave it to her. I haven't found anything that would harm a one year old. We've had it for two months now, and no problems with her being too small or anything being dangerous.

Well my one year old seems to be growing out of it already she's about 30' tall. To give her space I don't blow up the back rest anymore. This is great for traveling and for short term use. My one year old still enjoys herself in it. It holds her weight just fine still. It's about 30' long in length but since she sits up she has more leg room. If she has leg room it would be a great product to have while traveling. I have used this 6 months and up.

Yes. Just be prepared the sides rip where the child sits. But you can still sit in it. I use a stroller almost everyday and this didn't work well for that. Wasn't worth the money to me.

I purchased this seat for my 3 year old daughter (she's tiny only 25 lbs) but my 15 month old has used it before. I would say it would be suitable for a child that has been sitting up unassisted for a while...maybe 12+ months. Not sure what the manufacturer recommends.

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.

Yes, the top of the seat to floor is approx. 9 inches. Should not be a problem for a 1 year old.
