HUGE but COMFY

I was suprised at how big this was. I have a VW Jetta and it fits nicely in the centre and two average size adults can sit semi comfortably on eithwer side. My daughter seems to be very comfortable in it. I purchased a different Graco model for my car but gave that to my parents and kept this one since we travel more than they do. I would recommend this to a friend with the caveat that it may be too big depending on your car so measure first.

Perfect for long vacation drives, but man what a moose!

It is always hard on little kids to go on long car rides. My wife and I have a rough riding pickup truck to pull the camper. We leave in the evening and hope our little one will sleep for the long ride. Often times her head would bounce, wake her up repeatedly, and it would frustrate her terribly. This car seat solved our troubles. With it's excellent reline feature, our little one can take a long nap even in our bouncy pickup truck. I am so thankful that we found this car seat. The only disadvantage to this car seat is that it is a MOOSE. It is absolutely huge. When we put it in the back seat of our compact car, it takes up a majority of the rear seat. If you have a compact car, or other children will be riding in the back, beware. Otherwise, this car seat is most excellent for the back seat of a pickup truck or a van. Pefect for long drives.

QUALITY NOT UP TO PAR

The seat fabric is very, very, very cheap! Nothing of what I would expect from Graco or a carseat priced at $130. Besides that, it's nice.

very pleased

I really like this car seat. It is much easier than another car seat I have for my daughter. It is very easy to adjust and doesn't pinch her.

SafeSeat Ionic - disappointment

We purchased this after reading reviews in the most recent Baby Bargains book by Fields. It had strong reviews. We returned it after a 2 week trial run. It was so heavy, my wife could barely lift it. It was so large that our (skinny) two year old barely had enough room for his legs behind the passenger seat of our mid-size sedan. Finally, whatever the material is - it looks cool, but made our kid sweat like crazy. We thought we would try it and save some $$$ instead of buying another Britax for the 2nd car. After we returned it, we bought another Britax after all and are very happy with our final decision. Save yourself a lot of trouble and do not buy this carseat.
