We have a cheap evenflo discovery 5 seat. My niece used it as an infant so the seat is about 1 year old now. When she was little she slept in the bucket seat due to horrible reflux. One night she slept through the night and her diaper did not et changed. It ripped down the middle from so much liquid. Niece was not harnessed in the seat (I know I know, not my kiddo) and the diaper contents leaked on the harness. Sister has not used the seat since at my urging. She went and bought a myride that morning. So now she is pregnant again, So I called evenflo today to check the cost of a new harness and they tell me the seat is safe to use. That they allow up to three washings in saopy water or lemon juice before they say buy a new harness. What do you think?

What does the manual say? Every manual I've seen says don't submerge in water or something like that. I wouldn't do it (and I wouldn't try washing it if it's been sitting like that for so long either).
