What Other Parents are saying (Reviews from Amazon):

The Good: 

Alicia: Extensively researched many car seats, my son is moving out of his infant carrier and i don't want to buy another seat for him after this one.  Yes, this one is on the more expensive side but i believe it is worth every penny. Plenty of room to grow (out and up), many seat settings (you will only have one permanent one for each "mode" but the variety is perfect to customize fit for each car).

Hunters Momma: I've read that the buckles are hard to get on and off and I am able to do them both with one hand :) I feel this carseat is worth every penny!! It feels so safe and sturdy!! My husband like to say its Hutners First Class Airliner Jet Seat :)

The Cons:

Max: It sits too far upright - the childs head flops forward when sleeping. Plus, the padding slides around a lot, not a big deal, but they should have some velcro on the bottom so you don't have to adjust it every time you use it.

J. Stroh: Other than the fact that the base is too wide, it is a very nice seat, well constructed and heavy. I'm sure this seat would work out for a single child family but it won't work out for occasional use as I was planning on doing.
