These are awesome - a real game changer
February 26, 2021
First and foremost, thank you so much to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with these Graco® True3Fitâ"¢ LX 3-in-1 Car Seats! We were over the moon when they arrived and couldn't wait to test them out.
We're down to one car these days (we're fortunate enough to work from home, so we sold our other vehicle to cuts costs and, well, we aren't going anywhere) so it's crucial we have enough space for kids - a one year-old girl and three-year old boy - some cargo and the occasional adult-sized passenger in the back. It's a smaller-sized SUV so that's way easier said than done, but the Grace True3Fits have completely transformed our back seat.
Our car is a bit older and the anchors/hooks are spread out a bit farther than a newer vehicle, so based on safety standards, we aren't able to run them next to one another, but these seats are so slim, they've granted ample room in the middle - so much so we can actually have a passenger sit comfortably in the rear middle now. Before, that was nearly impossible.
Even though they have such a slim profile, it's easy to tell this car seat is super durable and solidly constructed, yet light and easy to move around. And it's super easy to make adjustments to the straps and harnesses, which is clutch because we have one forward facing and one rear facing seat.
With our old car seats, this was such a pain. Making any adjustments was super complicated, and it was like putting together a 500 piece puzzle trying to snap, slip and thread the cover back in place only for it to never quite go back in place like before. But the Graco® True3Fitâ"¢ is a breeze to adjust and the design is super intuitive - all you have to worry about is popping a few buttons back in place when replacing or moving the covers around. What would normally take several minutes, sweat and plenty of frustration, took just a fraction of the time and zero irritation with the Graco® True3Fitâ"¢ LX 3-in-1 Car Seat.
We recently had to take our car in for service and it took no time to switch the seats out of our car and into the captains chairs of the loaner they gave us. Like record time without even trying. Even the service techs were impressed.
Most importantly, the kids are super comfortable. Our three year old was almost as excited as we were to try them out! They used to get visibly uncomfortable going on car trips even as short as 15 minutes, but those complaints are nonexistent since we installed the Graco® True3Fitâ"¢ LX 3-in-1 Car Seats. The cup holders are the perfect size and the kids don't bump into them like they did with the bulky ones on our old seats.
It's hard to pick just one favorite thing about these car seats because there are so many beneficial features for us, so I'll just say we truly love the slim profile and sturdy, safe construction. Our kids are comfortable and safe, the seats have transformed our back seat and we couldn't be happier.
