Safety

Like many European car seats, this seat comes in two pieces - an base and a shell. The shell is clipped into place, in contrast to cars that rotate, where the shell slides on a track over the base. This means less hassle for parents, it could mean that the seat is more difficult to install than its competitors.

This is a sign that it has a sturdy structure and is protected by plenty of padding. The fabric is soft and it hides the tough plastic seat frame very well.

It's a bit heavier than other convertible seats. This can be a problem if are a parent living in an urban area and have to fit three seats on the back seat. It's also not able to fit into all car trunks because of its large width.

The LATCH anchors can be located under the shell on both sides, near the bend of the seat. The Tether clip is located at the back of base. The anchors for LATCH are much easier to use than the tether strap, however it takes some time to make them secure enough.
