Awesome seat!
May 12, 2016
I've had this car seat for 2 1/2 years now and it has been fantastic for adjusting to my child's growth! and she always looks so safe and secure in it! Only problem is I couldn't find the expiration date on it, just the date it was manufactured. Did some research on this certain made car seat and found it expires 6 years after the manufactured date. Looks like she'll be in the booster chair around that time! Great price for how long it lasts.

This is the second seat I've bought. The first one was in a car wreck so we replaced it with a new one! I love it and so does my son!

Feels safe and secure
May 2, 2016
My daughter looks very safe a secure in her new Nautilus 3-in-1 Carseat! She is surrounded by padding which brings me peace of mind and I know this seat will last forever since it will grow and change with her.

Great product
April 30, 2016
We just moved my son into this seat from the Graco my ride 65 with the idea that it would be his last seat. I love that it converts and grows with them. We really liked the my ride, but we have noticed this one takes up less space. I suppose that's to be expected since the other is a convertible seat and this is only forward facing. I appreciate the ease of assembly and the adjustments are easy and self-explanatory. I was initially worried that there was only one cup holder, because my son loved using his double holders in the my ride. However, once we saw there were compartments instead he was in heaven. He can fit his cars and trains in there and he thinks it's the coolest storage space ever.

Great carseat
April 30, 2016
I have two boy and have used the symphony convertible seats since birth for them both. They are great car seats, except the horrible cup holders and the massive size of the seats themselves. I finally broke down and bought two of these Graco car seats and LOVE them. They have the same great quality and safety, but they are also narrower (making it easier for passengers to get to the back seat of the van) and have built in cup holders. No more spills and easier access with the confidence that my boys will be safe :)

Feels so sturdy and fabric is amazingly comfortabl
April 28, 2016
Purchased this for my 2 year old and I am so impressed! The seat itself feels very sturdy and comfortable all at the same time. When I was at the store there were very many choices but this one was in my opinion the best looking one and the one that seemed to also be the most comfortable. My toddler possess out instantly once he's in I love it!!!

LOVE THIS SEAT!
April 27, 2016
I bought this seat a few months ago for my 3 year old and we both love it! It fits in my small car perfectly, he says it's the most comfortable of the 2 seats we have (the other is a different type of Graco). Once installed it doesn't move at all, not even a wiggle. The only complaint I have is it is tricky to install with the old style metal hooks. But since it only comes out once in a while it's not been a huge issue. Highly recommend this seat!

Excellent car seat!
April 24, 2016
I agonized over combination car seats for my rapidly growing 4-year-old son before finally choosing this one. I'm so glad I did! Install was easy, and the harness adjustment is a piece of cake. My son seems very comfortable and happy in it. He has a number of special needs, including very low muscle tone, so we are happy to be able to keep him in a 5-point harness for several more years.

We love Graco carseats
April 21, 2016
I just purchased this seat and am pleased with how sturdy it feels and all of the excellent features. My son also finds it very comfortable and was excited for his big boy seat. It was easy to assemble, install and use.My only complaint is how hard the crotch buckle is to move from slot to slot. Also wanted to mention the great customer service I have always received from Graco. I highly recommend this seat for your kiddos that are 2 years old and up.

Did well in crash
April 20, 2016
I purchased before and am doing so again after we had to dispose of both of our car seats after we were in a high speed head-on collision. Everything worked exactly as they said it would, and my kids both came out of the car extremely mad, but that was about it. The bruises they had from the belts are exactly what one would expect; otherwise, they were unscathed. Insurance covered the cost of the new seats, and I gladly purchased them. I would recommend this product without hesitation to any parent.

I bought this a month ago and it was easy to install and is easy to use! The only challenge was moving the buckle on the 5 point harness system. It was a complete pain to try to pull out of the old slot so I could move it to a different slot!

Excellent choice!
April 15, 2016
Pros: Easy to install, cup holder and 2 storage compartment for kiddos, grows with the child. Cons: Tightening harness straps can be difficult, it doesn't always fee like they are tight enough. Wish the latch system was the newer updated click style, not the hook style as that is slightly harder to install. I love this car seat! Only had it for about a week now but it is world's better then my daughter's old car seat. It feels very safe and secure!

Hard to tighten!
April 14, 2016
I really love the seat in theory, it was really easy to assemble from the box and install in my car, however pulling the straps tight requires an enormous effort. I usually end up with my knee pressing down on the arm rest while pulling up with all of my strength to get only a moderately tight fit. Hoping for eventual rope stretch...

Great Customer Service
April 7, 2016
I have a problem with my original seat and Graco did a wonderful job at resolving my problem. They had to replace my seat and my original color pattern was not available so they sent me the Nautilus Elite 80 in Chili Red. I love that it can go to 80lbs using the five point harness.

Color Different Than Expected
April 6, 2016
I just received this seat for my granddaughter, but i'm sure she will love the comfort. I have always trusted Graco products for their safety and reliability. My only complaint is that the color of this azalea appears red. I had 4 people look at it and they all said it was red. For the cost, I expected an obvious deep hot pink.

Awesome Car Seat!
April 6, 2016
I bought 2 of these a month ago. 1 for my car and the other for my husbands car. Not only is it a nice looking car seat but it is also not bulky like some of the other car seats. My son absolutely loves it. He says it is very comfortable. I like that it provides the option for both the harness as well as the seat belt. It will not be long until he is using just the seat belt but for right now I want to keep him in the harness for added protection. This car seat is affordable and has great safety features. If you are looking to transition to the booster car seat this is a great option in my opinion!

This is a wonderful, middle of the road (meaning not terribly expensive) car seat. It was easy to put together and anchor in my 4-Runner using the LATCH system. My 18 month old daughter seems to love it too, which is a good thing because in theory this'll be the last seat we purchase for her.

In love with this car seat
April 3, 2016
I borrowed this car seat from one of my friends and I instantly fell in love. My child is 4 y/o and is just under 4 feet she is very tall for her age and I'm just not ready for her to be using the adult seat belt with a back booster, and now I don't have to she can stay in the 5 point harness longer. Love the 3 in 1 I will never have to buy another car seat again it will grow with my daughter until she no longer needs it.

No complaints way to go Graco!

Great fit and nice to have the cup holder that is sturdy. Wish there were 2! Only complaint we have it that when she sits down, the back slides down so we have to hold it up. Otherwise the shoulder straps don't fit right-a little irritating but it's minor.

I bought this car seat for my two and a half year old. I was initially looking for the quick release LATCH tethers as I had some difficulty with the standard tethers in the past. It has been surprisingly easy to remove and install this carseat! It has been so much more comfortable for my son as well. He doesn't complain nearly as much with this seat!

Love this seat!
March 20, 2016
We bought this seat when my son finally hit the requirements to sit in it! He has loved it ever since! The seat it self is fairly heavy, which I think is good. Makes me feel better about it being safer. Also, the seat is very comfortable. It has just enough recline so that when my son falls asleep, his head is completely hanging in his lap. What I aboslutely LOVE about the seat is the ease of use! I love that you are able to adjust the straps from the front, so that you aren't uninstalling the seat to adjust. Also, that makes it easier to get my son in and out, being about to loosen the straps and tighten back. The seat cover is VERY easy to remove and easy to clean. We spot clean most of the time, but there have been several occasions where we had to throw them in the washer! I use a normal cycle and even throw them in the dryer on a medium low setting. We'ev had the seat for 18 months and it still functions and (almost) looks like it did when we got it! (Messy 2 year old = some funky stains!) Overall, this product is top notch! I would recommend to anyone and EVERYONE! Well worth the price, which is on the cheaper end of "high end" seats. Needless to say, when our second son is able to ride front facing, we will be purchasing a second one for him!

We just bought our second round of these seats. We use them for our 4 year old and now 2 year old in both cars (we have 4 total). They are easy to install and work great. All belts slide smoothly and buckles open easily. I love that they will convert to a booster when we need them to, but that my kids can stay in the 5 point harness until 65 pounds. Worth every penny!

First Choice Seat
March 16, 2016
I have one Graco Nautilus 3 in 1 seat already. Needed to get another car seat and wanted to get the same car seat. Bought the exact same car seat twice however the second seat we bough doesn't have slots to adjust the back straps that go over the shoulders. That was very disappointing since our child does not reach the tallest shoulder straps yet. I had to remove the back bar to get the plastic pieces out so I could move the shoulder straps down the put the back bar back into the car seat after adjusting the shoulder straps. Since there was no slots in the fabric for lower shoulder straps I folded down and behind the fabric so the shoulder straps could fit through correctly. My child does not seem to notice the difference but it was a bit of a pain to make the adjustments and will have to do the same process once my child grows taller. I would buy this seat again but I would open the box in the store to make sure there is slots in the fabric and no removable plastic pieces in the back to block the shoulder strap openings for shoulder strap adjustments.

Good buy
March 15, 2016
We just replaced our Nautilus 3-in-1 after it was in an accident. It did a good job. Our little thrill-seeker came out unscathed and happy as usual. The only complaints would be that it's annoying to install it in a vehicle without LATCH (I had to install our new one that way...). Also, on some older vehicle models, the top anchor is right up at the top of the seat instead of being positioned a bit farther back toward the back windshield, so it is physically impossible to tighten the top anchor tether all the way (the tether does not get that short!). But the kid loves the seat, seems comfortable in it, loves the cup holder, and was very happy we bought her another one.
