It FINALLY got here (cancelled at CSNbaby because it wasn't going to ship for 10 days, I reordered at Comfort1st)
LIKES:
~installs easily
~ARB is nice and doesnt hinder an upright install
~Can reach adjuster more easily
~Continuous harness is nice, just something I prefer for getting in and out
~Cover snaps on, I love this and it is very well padded
~Fabric is nice, the non plush did not seem scratchy or rough
~Manual has good info and has lots of pictures
~Latch connectors even though we do not have Latch
~Lock-offs
~Infant padding is NICE and the headrest is very supportive
DISLIKES:
~Buckles are slightly too narrow for straps, harness does not lay flat inside
~Buckles, likes to bunch, and makes it more annoying to tighten the harness
~I have to pull on the straps from the back to get them tight enough
~Crotch strap seems to be close to body
It installs VERY similar to the Graco safeseat1 as far as ease of use goes. I was thoroughly impressed! Normally to install a car seat tightly, I have to climb up into the seat, not that hard as I am 4'8" but sure is interesting when you are dressed up and you just have to go put the car seat in real quick before you go out to eat or when you are wearing some nice super low jeans and everyone wants to watch me install haha.
I just pushed my hand down into it to tighten and it was rock solid!!!!! I had to do 2 full twists of the buckle stalk on the passenger side and 3 full twists on the drivers side (drivers side had the safeseat installed there until 5 min before this installation so it was most likely compressed). It is also COMPLETELY and utterly incompatible with the truck in the passenger or middle front seat, and not allowed in nor does it fit in the back seat.
One last small complaint is that Michael complains about his junk being squished. The belly pad is a TOTAL no go, but even without it, he keeps telling me it is hurting his junk. He has never had this problem in any other seat, and when we tried the TF a few months back, I had it on the outermost setting just because thats where it got placed at the time.
From what Ive looked up, we cant use the second position can we? (Manual did not make it very clear to me)
Pics...sorry he was just in boxers lol, he did NOT want shorts on and I wanted non screamy pics
legroom
In the middle of the truck, looks fine but the buckle stalk cannot twist and gets in the way (the middle stalk is a lot shorter than the passenger one, but I tried it both positions, both are a no go )
it feels tight, but definitely could be tighter if it wasnt for the buckle :thumbsdown:
