Features
This car seat is ideal for those who need to rotate their infant car seats but do not require a base that rotates. It also comes with additional features that make it a great choice for parents who own a smaller car or who travel often.

However, the seat is heavy and bulky, which makes it difficult to move from vehicle to car. It's also not as wide as many competitors and the height adjustment only offers five settings which could be limited as your child grows. The cup holders are tiny and can only hold regular-sized drinks. This defeats the purpose to have built-in holders.

They'll have to be stored on the anti-rebound or belt path, which isn't as efficient than other seats that allow you to store the connectors on either side of the seat.
