Century Next Step DX Toddler/Youth Car Seat

Does anybody have any info on this toddler/booster seat? Apparently it is rated #2 by Consumer Reports, but I wanted to know if anyone here has had any experience with this. I bought this seat yesterday for my 1yo son. He already has a Britax Roundabout, but I bought the Century for our 2nd car. I thought it would be a good idea to have a seat that can grow with him (it's good up to 80 lbs and converts to a booster).

I would appreciate any info anybody has. It's not too late to return it.

It's a fine seat if it fits your car and child-

I own one, and have been happy with it. I wrote a review here:

Even so, please consider that your 1 year old is much safer in a rear-facing convertible seat as long as possible, see:

www.car-safety.org/rearface.html

If your child is 1 year and at least 20 pounds, the NextStep is acceptable for once-in-a-while use, but a rear-facing convertible seat like your Roundabout is a safer choice until 30-35 pounds.

Hope that helps! Please feel free to ask if you have any other questions.
