Great seat with one exceptioni

I bought this car seat 8 months ago for my grandson to ride in my car. He had just outgrown his rear-facing seat. He loves this seat. He's a little guy (weighed a pound and a half at birth) and although he's 26 pounds now at age 22 months, he's not a chubby little boy and this seat doesn't swallow him like some did yet it's roomy enough for him to be active while we travel.

I like the fact that it reclines. His parents bought a Graco and paid more for it and it doesn't recline or have arm rests. This one is also a lot more padded than some of the much more expensive seats.

It was easy to install and making adjustments was very easy. It's also easy to get him in and out of the seat. I do have to search for the metal tabs that click into the locking latch but that's no big deal.

Cleaning is a bit of a nightmare, though. Taking the cover off is not difficult but washing it by hand is a bit awkward and then putting it back on requires someone with tools or an engineering degree.
