Poor head & neck support
This car seat is totally lacking head support. My infants head is literally 90 degrees in this. You can tell the other Graco models have since corrected this & have more padding. Why isn’t there padding or something Graco offers to correct this? This can not possibly be safe for a babies neck. I wouldn’t recommend this model.

Average product
A bit disappointed by the functionality of this product, but it is fine overall. The canopy is a pain and seems like it doesn’t fit properly. We’ve also struggled with getting our newborn to fit in the seat properly. The shoulder straps slide off even when tight unless we have the pads on, and it seems to be inconsistently tight or loose in different areas. His head con...

Ok product
horrible sun shade. Never stays connected and is horrible quality. It’s a pain anytime I have to mess with it. Also car seat has horrible neck support. Baby’s head moves all over the place. The one great thing is the easy car seat click in and out of base.

Cheap and scratchy fabric
The fabric is very scratchy and not at all something I'd like to lay my baby on. The canopy fabric doesn't stay in place at all. The velcros on the canopy are too tight and come off even with just a little movement. It's supposed to have a "silent canopy", but the scratchy fabric makes it quite loud.

Lacking newborn head support + faulty sunshade
I have the same issues as many other reviewers: the head support is lacking for tiny newborns - we added an additional insert to keep our babies head from just dropping to the side but it’s still not great.
Also, the sunshade does not stay attached. When the Velcro is secure on one side, it pops off on the other. It’s frustrating and just makes the car seat feel like p...

Horrible car seat
I hate this car seat and do not recommend. The straps always get tangled. The chest clip is always slipping and gets stuck which scares me if we were ever in an emergency. The buckle also gets stuck and the button is hard. This car seat is a hassle. Do not buy it. We’ve had it for almost a year and I look forward to getting a different car seat soon. The silent canopy ...

Nice quality, fit is not the best for newborns.
I was gifted this before my second son was born. I like the quality of the seat but there is no proper head support to keep my newborns head in place. It seems like it would be very supportive but that is not the case. The Velcro canopy always comes undone. I wish my newborn fit better. I have the fit adjusted properly with straps below shoulders, tightened straps and s...

Disappointing Product
The canopy that comes with this car seat does not fit the car seat. The canopy is supposed to velcro go the seat and it does not accurately line up. I was very disappointed in this product

Not good for newborns or lower weight ranges,
I have to rate this as a 1 because regardless of testing. The amount of side to side movement a newbornS head has does not make me feel like it’s safe enough. To me it’s more than just testing. It’s how confident it makes me feel to keep my baby safe. There needs to be some sort of an insert for those babies in the lower weight range. My baby is over 7 pounds.

Falls short in several areas
I have the same complaint as many others. My brand new baby has no head support. No matter how I adjust the shoulder straps to be as snug as they can be and make sure he’s in the proper position, his little head ends up flopping all the way over and I have to constantly adjust him or sit in the backseat while someone else drives so I can keep an eye on him. Additionally...

ConsThe head support it not there. My poor babies head is bobbing all over and I’m constantly trying to hold it up. The canopy on it is cheap and the Velcro barely keeps it on.
Pros: it is light to carry and easy to take out of the car.

No Newborn Support
After using this seat, I can say with absolute certainty that I would never recommend it. First, and most importantly, it does not have enough support for newborns, even large ones. My son was born at 10 lb 4oz 22 inches and was absolutely swimming in this car seat, even with the included infant padding. I can't even imagine what it would be like with a smaller baby....

Canopy does not fit
I really like this seat but the canopy cover that it came with does not fit, so it won’t secure to both sides with the Velcro.

Lose fit in base
The seat did not fit snuggly in the base that came with it. I didn’t feel safe with the amount of wiggle present, ended up returning the whole car seat and ordered the LX version with the upgraded base.

Canopy doesn’t stay attached
Bought this car seat at the Buy Buy Baby sale. Overall it does the job for the price. Biggest complaint is the canopy doesn’t stay attached. It’s attached with velcro and comes undone often. Wish I could upgrade that piece.

Safe, but low quality build
First off, I feel this is perfectly safe. I have several minor complaints though. First, the base doesn’t sit quite straight in my car. If you’re installing in a middle seat, your car might not have LATCH in the middle seat, and you’ll need to use the seatbelt. If you have a combination seat/ shoulder belt; just know there are other designs/ brands of base that will wor...
