Causes discomfort as baby-toddler grows
January 11, 2022
I did a lot of research when purchasing a car seat. I wanted good ratings and safety features. It was important for me to have my child in the safest position-rear facing as long as possible. When I unboxed the car seat to assemble and Insta in my suv, the straps jammed up and I had to return after 3 people were unsuccessful with trying to resolve the issue. I repurchased the same seat, as I really had high expectations for this seat that would be protecting my child as she grew. I was able to install with difficulty. I even searched for installation videos and reviews but at the time found very few. Once this car seat was installed I dreaded removing it. I did find this seat to work very nicely for an infant up to about 18 months. As my baby grew she started complaining on her legs being "snug" tingling. Once again I looked for help. Contacting car seat safety forums, and the company with pictures. My installation seemed appropriate with my 2 year old in it as per picture review. I received a lot of opinions on putting my 2 year old forward facing, but my priority was more safety than comfort. Even after educating my 2 year old on leg position options and car seat adjustments, I gave up on the car seat. It now has no use for me and I am using a different one. Now my petite 3 1/2 year old is still rear facing, comfortable, and most importantly safe. Disappointed to say the least.
