This car seat has been the best. My daughter is now 3 and she is very tall (40 inches) and she is very comfortable in this car seat. She crosses her legs and takes naps all the time. It is very easy to move to another vehicle or travel on an airplane. I have never pinched her leg with the bottom buckle.<br /><br />I know this is a little pricy, but it is worth it. You do not have to go buy a booster seat because your child can use this anywhere from less than a year to 5 years. my daughter grew out of the infant orbit system because her legs got so long.. so we moved her at 10 months old to this toddler seat rear facing.. then we took the base out of the car and moved the seat forward facing after she was 1.

The only thing someone can say negative about this stroller is they have to worry about someone trying to steal it when traveling to amusement parks with your child or that they can't afford it. <br /><br />This car seat is amazing. It is soft, and comfortable for your child, and has never hurt my child while putting her in it. I have had moments of rushing to put her in, but have never snagged her like the other writer stated.<br /><br />I also love that when traveling you can use the car seat, as a stroller seat. <br /><br />Lastly, it was great when my daughter was rear facing, since you could turn the seat while in the car to put her in it. But it is not difficult to place her in the seat facing forward. <br /><br />If you buy this, you will be very satisfied.

Love this seat! My daughter was a very big baby and outgrew most infant seats very quickly - this was a great choice because it gave me the option to use the rotating base while she was still rear-facing.<br /><br />At 2.5 years, she is still in this seat and will be able to use it for at least 2 more years.<br /><br />What is most helpful is when using this to travel, the toddler car seat fits right onto the stroller base which makes transport through the airport a breeze - then at the gate, we check the stroller and take the Toddler seat on the plane with us - and when we arrive on vacation, we have both a car seat and a stroller.<br /><br />I can't say enough good things about this wonderful seat - it is worth every penny.
