Could be better
May 5, 2020
We own the Graco Slimfit for my son and were debating about buying a second one for daughter, it was time to move her from an infant seat. After tons of research, we decided to move our 2 yr to the Slimfit and get Tranzitions for our 6 year old. We figured tranzitions would last him until he no longer needed a car seat. I want to love this seat but I am frustrated everytime I buckle him in. In the slimfit he could lock himself in, a quick inspection of the chest straps we were good to go. With this seat, he can't get buckle himself in and I struggle to buckle him. The way the buckle is angled it just makes it so hard to push in, plus it seems to allow his clothes to get wedge inbetween. We didn't have this problem with the Slimfit. Another feature which makes it less then desirable is the small cup holders. They can hold a medium size take-out disposible cup. My son ends up using his sister's Slimfit holder, then fights ensue over whose drink it is. We purchased the Tranzitions right before the pandemic hit and we are rarely using it while we SIP. I wish we could have tested it thoroughly and returned it easily that first week of purchase. Now I feel stuck with a seat that irritates me every time I buckle him in.
