Tell me about your Kia Sedona/Grand Carnival (2009 or newer)

My friend is expecting her 5th child and is upgrading from a 2004 Carnival to a 2011 Grande Carnival (I'm in Australia).
I am shocked at the lack of information available over here about this car! Especially regarding car seat placement
So, I know I've read about this car on here, but when I searched the threads nothing came up.
So, can the 2nd row seats be taken out/moved around?
Can it take 6 car seats?
Are the installs generally easy?
And most importantly do you like yours?!
TIA :)

We're in a 2009 or 2010 Carnival, and it's a great upgrade from our SUV which did not have top tether anchors at all! The second row seats are all removeable in our model.

I have a 2009 Kia Sedona. Not sure what a Grand Carnival is though.

So, can the 2nd row seats be taken out/moved around? Second row seats can be folded and tipped forward but I have never tried to take them out. They are captains chairs and the third row is a 60/40 split bench that folds into the floor for storage.

Can it take 6 car seats? Only 5 car seats


Are the installs generally easy? Installs car seats like a dream. Ours has latch in both captains chairs and latch in the right side third row. There are tether attachments in all rear seating positions.


And most importantly do you like yours?! We love ours. DH isn't a mini van type of guy and really likes ours alot.

Hope it helps.
