Proven Safe!
Reviewer: Tiffany , San Francisco, CA

I got this seat to replace my son's uncomfy Graco and am I glad I did!
At 7 months old we had a terrible accident and the seat took it in stride.
He was in the window seat where we were hit. Having the cannopy up and the boot on he didnt have glass on him, the metal connectors kept the seat in the base and my baby safe.
To top it off; COMPASS GAVE ME A FREE REPLACEMENT! They paid to ship the damaged seat back for research.
I'm now looking at Compass booster seats for him.
This company is tried and true!

Good for first time mom

The Car seat is great and my son loves it. Each time we go out for a truck ride, he falls asleep. The only thing a didn't like about it was as my son grew and began to gain weight. The seat gets very heavy to carry around. It makes a 12 lbs baby feel like a 30 lbs one.

Great Seat
Reviewer: Amanda , Seattle, Wa

I have loved this carseat. The only thing that wasn't my favorite was the non-adjustable crotch strap. When she was a newborn I rolled up receiving blankets to put between her legs and the strap to hold her up a bit higher in the seat. I don't know about it lasting until 2 year-old-age. My baby is 6 months old and 28 inches long and 18 lbs. Still, you can use it for longer than most seats on the market, big baby or not. My baby is always comfy in it. She even rode from Central California all the way to Seattle in it at 4 months old. We were in the car for 10 hours and she was totally great with it. My friend gave me a graco to use in the second car and I was shocked at the difference. I would never ever put her in it. I never used it because it seemed so flimsy comparatively. Bottom Line: COMFY, SUPER-SAFE, Lovely care seat.

I love this Car seat
Reviewer: Anonymous , Cherrryville NC

I am a single Mother. This is the best seat. It Is lighter than most seats it would be nice to not have to use a base but I still love it. My son is now one and he is still in it. But it is heavier now. But I love the seat and the stroller. I picked this out and my Father got it for me. My brother has a son that is 7 months older than my son and got the graco. I really checked the seats out before my son was born and went with the compass, I went with the right seat. This one Is the best. Now I am looking at the toddlers.

Excellent choice for an infant seat!
Reviewer: Anonymous , martin, tn

I bought this seat for my june 2006 baby. He is currently 9 months old and still fits in it great! He's 17lbs and 27" which means he STILL has room to grow in it. The seat itself is super light but he makes it a bit to heavy to haul around now. I love the padding and the EPS foam this seat offers. Only two things that people need to know, 1) it can NOT be used without the base but it's really not hard to undo the latch clips and move it and 2) it can not be put on a shopping cart. There are no slots on the bottom of it to hold it in place. Other than that, I HIGHLY recommend it. Those two things never bothered me.

Great for big babies!
Reviewer: Anonymous , West Bloomfield, MI

I have babies that get big fast! I know how great it is to be able to carry your sleeping baby from the car to wherever you may be, the longer I can do that, the easier my life is. I did a lot of research and found that this infant carrier can hold kids up to 30" and 22 lbs.! That's practically a two year old! I am enjoying the portability and freedom that the Compass provides. Thanks for shipping so quickly and your customer service reps were super knowledgable!

Wonderful Seat
Reviewer: Stefani , Dallas, TX
Date: November 28, 2005
I went out on a whim with this carseat when I bought it in May. However, I have never regretted my decision in the least! It is incredibly easy to install and to operate. I also love how light it is compared to other seats (Peg Perego, etc.) When we purchased it, the price was $169 - and it was definitely worth every penny. Now with the lower price it's a steal. We recently took our son on an airplane w/the seat and base and found it relatively easy to transfer. I love all of the safety features and the added bonus that we can use it for a little bit longer b/c of the heavier weight/longer length maximums...which is wonderful when you have a 9.5 newborn! one thing to be cautious of: as my son gets bigger, it is not possible to strap him in with a jacket so colder climates might have more difficulties. The foot cover works well for this, but we added some velcro straps to keep it in place with kicking feet.

The best I have found...
Reviewer: Heather Brown , Aubrey, Texas
Date: October 28, 2005
I bought this car seat to go along with my S310 Carriage Stroller. I absolutely LOVE this car seat. The padding is thick, (made of bicycle helmet foam)making it safer in impact as well as more cozy for our baby. The 5 point harness is a comfort to me, as the car seat we have been using is just a 3 point, and I am assured that 5 is safer. I like the steel handle and the firmness of the canopy. It stays put when you extend it. I wanted a car seat with a cold weather boot, and this seat has just what I was looking for. The fabric used in the car seat, canopy, and boot, is high quality and thick.
This car seat has so many more ways to adjust than the other seats I have seen and used. The adjustments are also very easy to make.
I am impressed with this seat and would recomend it to anyone looking for a good quality seat for a reasonable price.
