Complicated but good

We previewed a lot of car seats and then picked this one, as it seemed highly customizable and adjustable. It is, although it's a bit complicated. Almost everything can be adjusted to various positions and / or removed which means lots of buckles, belts, knobs and whistles to contend with. It takes some patience and a good hour or two to get it adjusted the first time and installed in the car.

That said, our 6.5 month old highly enjoys sitting in it. It's very comfortable and he can now even see out the car window. I'm sure all the adjustable features will come in handy as he grows. The fact that it's both rear and front facing means this is probably the only carseat you'll ever need to buy.
