This is a cute car seat that does the job. We bought it because we wanted an infant seat that would hold a baby up to 30 pounds. We had been using a Graco SnugRide that only holds up to 20 pounds and knew that our baby would likely be >20 pounds before she would be old enough for the next car seat that we have.
It works fine, but there is one thing that my husband and I do not like about it, which is how it buckles. With the Graco, you snap the two sides together and then snap one piece down into the buckle. With this car seat, you have to hold the two sides together like a puzzle and then snap it in--as baby arches her back and makes it difficult, naturally. It's not the greatest design.

I just recently bought the car seat, but haven't been able to use it yet since my baby isn't due for another 5 weeks. I can tell it will be really convenient. I like the fact that the base release latch is on the opposite side from the common car seats, making it easier to lift the baby in car seat with my right arm and release with my left (while on rear facing position). I also love the convenience of not having to re-thread the shoulder belts in order to adjust the height... you simply turn the nob and it will go up or down to adjust to the height of your growing baby. I love the colors and butterfly design of the product (light neutral colors). I would definitely recommend this car seat to anyone.

Have yet to use it as my second child is due any time but it has some great features like a knob that lifts the shoulder straps instead of having to take the whole thing apart.

I purchased this carseat for my second child and I love it. It is better than the 1st one I had. It took some time figuring out how it actually works but once you get it you'll find it rather easy. The fact that I dont have to mess with the straps to adjust to babys height is a plus all on its own. The design is very cute. I know my daughter will enjoy this seat.
Pros: Straps and buckle feel secure, Easy to Clean, Supportive Padding, Base feels secure, Comfortable padding

I bought this of course for my newborn baby girl, and I like using this. The brand, Baby Trend, I've never heard of, but then I've never had a baby before either. Anyways about the product... The triangle shaped handle fits perfectly in your hand for maneuverability and in any position. It is lightweight but durable which is a big plus. I don't use it everyday, but my daughter does, and I love how secure it holds her in... the straps don't come loose and stay put! It is easily adjustable to set the shoulders higher, as she grows, just by the turn of a knob on the back! I recommend this to any newborn so parents keep your eyes open for this one! THIS IS THE ONE YOU WANT!
Pros: Durable, Clear Instruction, Straps and buckle feel secure, Easy to Clean, Supportive Padding, Base feels secure, Comfortable padding, Easy to install in Car, easy and comfortable to carry

Beautiful Looking BUT not easy to use

I LOVE the look of this carseat, it is absolutly gorgeous which is why we purchased them. They were easy to install, and seem very safe. We've been using it 5 months now with no problems on the actual install part of it.
The problems with this car seat is 1. the buckle, you have to hold two clips over top of each other and then snap it into the bottom. This is a huge pain and is hard to do without having to loosen the straps first then re-tighten after. I've also had some problems with the buttons on the side that move the carrier handle up/down. Sometimes these are near impossible to push in. It also stains super easy, a drop of water stains the tan fabric right away.
I'm so disappointed with this car seat and can't wait until we switch to convertible's.
Pros: Clear Instruction, Base feels secure, Easy to install in Car

Nice car seat! I have only used it for about 3 weeks now but really like it! I love the triangle shaped handle on adjustable bar. It makes it extremely easy to carry especially for a smaller person like me. I also like the lever in front of car seat. Much easier to remove from base in front. I shopped around looking &found this seat as a reasonable price compared to others. I would definitely recommend this car seat.

LOVE IT!!!! I love how when you need the seat to move up all you do is turn the red nob in the back. And it seems to grow really good with your baby. It even more adorable in person that it was online.

Love this seat - especially for the great price. The only issue that I'm having is that my daughter is getting too big - too quickly. The seat is supposed to be used for up to 25 pounds, I believe. Any child over 15 pounds would have to be pretty petite to fit in ANY brand of these infant seats. My daughter's feet were hanging over the end of the seat at 3 months & now, at 5 months & 15 pounds, her shoulders are just about too wide to be squeezing into this seat. This is baby #4 & I've had the same issue with all of the Graco seats that I've used in the past. Just go into it knowing that these seats aren't used for very long & you'll be good. It was very easy to set up & is no trouble to get in and out of the vehicle.

I got this and when I took it out of the box it was missing alot of its sticking and the foot cover was sown crocked and did not sit on the car seat strait also it was covered in water stains witch lead me to decided to take a few spots and try stain remover on the material and found this material stains very easy and with a baby thats not a good thing. This product was very pretty but with missing sticking and soon to be covered in even more stains then what it came with due to baby spit up and such this was not the car seat for me.

i was looking for a good car seat one that will last me a good while and a nice looking one it took awhile to find one. so i seen this one and decide to buy it, its a nice car seat and a stroller and got it for a good price. my baby is gonna be one in a few weeks and i just stop using the car seat it did last me a good while my baby is a little big would last longer for those who have small children.one thing that my mom didnt like is when buckling the baby it was difficult for her. i really like this travel system and would recommend it
