Great Convertible Car Seat
Reviewer: Anonymous , Colorado Springs, CO
Date: August 15, 2008
I don't have experience with any other car seats but love this one. I love the fun colors; the clips on the side that hold the seat belt harness out of the way as you put the child in the car seat; haven't used it forward facing yet but love that it reclines easily. The fabric does get stained easily by liquids. Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase. Fantastic carseat for the price!

I Love this Car seat
Reviewer: Lindsay Barry , Davisn-Monthan AFB, AZ

This is the best car seat ever!!! we kinda bought it blind becasue we couldn't find anyone around our area that carried it to put her in to see how she liked it but it was the best buy ever. It sits up high so my daughter can look out the windows, it is so comfortable for her the second we put her in it she smiles and then falls asleep. It is so easy to install. I lvoe the recline feature and it fit in to our ford fusion so nice. there is also no bounce back from the front of the seat that most of them have in the rear facing position. I can't say enough about this carseat it was the best purchase we ever made and well worth the money I love the strap holders too that way she doesn't get fussy when i have to dig them out from underneath her!!!!

Maxi-Cosi
Reviewer: Anonymous , Colorado Springs, CO

Our 9 month old daughter was really out growing her graco safe seat (which was supposed to last until she was 1). She is very tall and was very uncomfortable in the infant seat. She loves her new car seat and is able to fall asleep better in the car! The only down side is you can't carry her inside in the seat, but it's a small price to pay.

Very Happy with my Carseat!

Love this carseat. Thinking about buying another for my other car. Kinda hard to install but not horrible. I am tiny and I did it myself. Hint* you gotta sit in the carseat (you need your weight to push it down) then snap in the LATCH. Its so secure and won't budge unlike my infant Graco that slides left and right. Great colors and my daughter is oh so comfy in it. Cup holder is also a plus!

Love the recline feature!
Reviewer: Amanda , Greenacres, Florida

I purchased this seat 5 months ago and I absolutely love it! I researched alot before I purchased the Maxi Cosi and was looking at the Graco that reclined because I wanted that feature but that seat was just too bulky and then I found the Maxi Cosi and the size is just right. It fits great in my Ford Explorer. My daughter can now sleep comfortable in the seat without having her head flopped forward. This is absolutely the best seat for those naps in the car! The color choices are wonderful, I have the Indian Spice that matches the color of my car and it looks great. The only downfall is that the seat cover does stain easliy when water or baby drool falls on it, but that is the least of my worries, it can be cleaned. I highly recommend Elitecarseats.com, they were the best in customer service and super fast shipping! I had a few questions before I made my purchase and they were very prompt to respond and courteous. I will definetly do business with them again in the future.

The Best Car Seat
Reviewer: Anonymous , Tulsa, OK
Date: May 09, 2008
I searched and searched for a great car seat that wasn't too big and also had a nice design/color scheme. I actually purchased my Maxi Cosi about a year ago after they were FINALLY released for sale in the US. I have been completely satisfied. I drive a Volvo S60 and had a hard time finding a car seat that would fit in the space that would allow my daughter actual leg movement :). The reclining feature is fabulous and and husband is always trying to steal my seat for his car (he has a britax). If you are still on the fence about which car seat to purchase - your search is over.

We love it!

We have been very pleased with this car seat. We bought it for our 3rd child because we needed something that would fit between a Britax Roundabout and a high-back booster seat, in the back seat of a Ford Expedition.
I'm not sure if it is because we have owned 5 different car seats, so therefore we now just know what to do without looking at the directions, or maybe they updated the instruction book, but we didn't have any problems installing or adjusting the seat...
My husband did a happy dance when he saw that this seat had what he calls a "quick release LATCH hook."
I also really love the colors on this seat. It is a nice change of pace from the denims and floral prints you usually see. Since we live in the Deep South, it is often hard to find a car seat cover that doesn't look like it would fry my child in the summer.
I'm sure that once she is big enough to face forward, we are going to love the recline also.
Lastly, I think that this seat sits up a little higher than most. Our daughter seems very happy and can easily interact with her sisters.

It Ain't Perfect, But It's as Close as it gets
Reviewer: Anonymous , Brooklyn, NY
Date: April 13, 2008
We have 2 Prioris for our twins. This is the only 2nd level carseat that IS good and LOOKS good. (I dont know why graco and britax have to make products that look like theyre from a quilting bee in 1982).
Anyway, the material feels good, and the seat feels sturdy. And it has a nice cup holder on the side. The Priori also lets u clip the straps back when u take the kid out so when u put her back, she's not sitting on them. The only thing is that the straps can get twisted as times, but that can happen on any seat.

Priori Convertible car seat
Reviewer: Amanda , Morgantown, WV
Date: April 07, 2008
the directions for adjusting the straps are vague - was very difficult until I realized I was doing it wrong but once I figured that out and started doing it the right way it was much easier. I also don't like how easily the fabric gets marks on it. Drool, spit etc. who has time to take the seat all the time to clean th ewhole cover?? Not me. That Aside I love this car seat. It is very well made, my little one seems comfortable and the straps are very easy to adjust and keep in place. I recommend this seat, its well worth the price.
