Comfortable and Safe
Reviewer: Anonymous , Houston, TX
Date: November 29, 2007
Bought this seat for our 20 month old. It installed very easily, appears to be of a very high quality build and material content. Excellent side protection for both body and head. Easy to get her in and out of, and she seems very comfortable in it. Only minor complaint is that one needs to unclip at least one side latch to get to the height adjustment on the back of the seat, but it's a minor inconvenience on an otherwise close to perfect product.

5 stars

Love this carseat. It's narrower and much much easier to adjust the height than any Britax. Its narrow width makes it possible and easy to install more than one carseat in a row, and more comfortable for the adult sitting next to the carseat. Also, no rethreading the harness for adjusting the height. Just lift the entire back with the harness intact. Absolutely five stars in my book!

Recaro car seat

I bought this car seat for my 4 years old son based on reviews and the safety importance. The first car seat was Britax Marathon, also very great one. Both-the Britax and Recaro are very good quality and meet my expectation for safety even in a stronger safety rules for care seats in Europe.

We purchased the Recaro seat to replace the Britax roundabout that we had. So far I am very happy with it. The Recaro is very nice looking and the fabric is incredibly soft (I wish I could sit in it!) The straps are easy to buckle and I like that he sits down a little lower and is easier for my son to get into than the Britax. We have one car with Latch and one without, it is very easy to install with latch but I am not very happy with how it goes in with the seat belt, it just doesn't feel as secure as the old one did. The other two things that bother me a little are that it is considerably heavier than the old seat and sometimes I feel like the side impact head protectors are like blinders on a horse. But they are there for safety so I guess I can't be so picky. Overall I am very happy with the seat, but would definately reccommend it for someone with a latch system in their car. We call it his "racecar seat" and my son gets excited to get into it!

RECARO Young Sport
Reviewer: Jessica , jacksonville, FL

I purchased 2 of the Recarro Young Sport toddler car seats. I wanted a safe seat for my convertable car that would give me peace of mind. They are relatively simple to install, unlike some others out there. The seat is slighly narrow, but that is part of the safety feature. Not a lot of wiggle room. The construction is as solid as my new mercedes. I highly recommend this product for individuals, as it provides me with confidence that my 2 and 4 year old are protected within this car seat. The impact resistant seat provides an obvious safety feature that I have not seen before. I have purchased over 6 different brands, so that is a great comparison for new moms. I even had compliments on them...how funny is that! That was a first time for me.. "nice car seat"! I selected this seat because I wanted it to be the last one I had to purchase for them. They can grow into it for sometime, which is great. It does cost more than most, but it actually looks expensive. My kids are worth it!

Great seat
Reviewer: Anonymous , Astoria, OR
Date: November 15, 2007
I first ordered the britax Boulevard but it was to small for my daughter. Who is 3 and 27lbs. So for the money I went for the Recaro Sport because of the conversion into a booster. Pros: plush fabric, easy adjustments, sturdy, daughter loves it, easy to install. I really love this seat. The main reason for the four stars is that compared to the boulevard I wish there were more girlie patterns and the boulevard seemed to have slightly more padding. But compared to other seats I have had like Graco and evenflo the padding on the recaro is far superior and I love the plush fabric. I have installed the seat in a 03 honda crv and a 01 Ford crew cab 350 without any problems. I was also impressed with the service I received, also go with the shipping insurance. Great seat and pretty reasonable price for a high end seat.

Perfect Seat
Reviewer: david and jenn , chicago, IL
Date: October 26, 2007
This is the perfect seat for our toddler. Our daughter is almost 30lbs now but has been in this seat for a while. She is very comfortable in the seat and still has room to move her head freely. The latch system is very easy to use too. We loved this seat so much we just ordered our second one from this site This seat is really durable, it is easy to take appart to clean the fabric, we have the dark grey so it hides minor spills well too. The best part we found is that this seat fits in most cars really well. We have used it in both of our cars and two of the grandparents cars and in every car/suv this recaro fits perfect and is easy to get real tight. We have tried some friends Britax seats that don't fit as well sometimes. I would't recomend any other seat.
The only downside is that this is a heavy seat so it is def. not for traveling on airplains etc.
