DO NOT BUY
I have 2 other graco car seats and they're amazing. This on not so much. I follosihly threw the box out since I assumed it was the same quality as the others and now I'm stuck with it. It does not secure at all and is always shifting and moving. No matter how much i or even the local police officers tighten it, it won't stag snug. It's extremely dangerous and would not...

Perfect travel seat!
We bought this as a secondary car seat for grandparents and to use on airplanes when travel, so I wanted to be sure it would fit comfortably in the seats and be easy to install. This checked all the boxes and my baby loves being in it, so it’s perfect! We love all of our graco car seats!

Travel seat
Works well as a travel seat, lightweight and fits well even on smaller planes. Relatively easy to install between different cars.

Good for price and can fly with it
I specifically chose this one because it’s rated for air travel and we fly fairly frequently. It’s a good car seat for the price. My kiddos seem to like it.

Perfect for travel
Excellent travel car seat. Light enough for travel without sacrificing safety. We took this car seat with us to Sicily. Quick and easy to install from rental car to uber. Easy enough to throw in a back pack carrier and walk the cobblestone streets without being too cumbersome.

Great for dodge ram
Great for Ram pick up truck which notoriously doesn’t fit many rear facing car seats comfortably. This one is sturdy and comfortable for our toddler and fits the backseat of the dodge ram.

Safety yes!
It's nice and my daughter fits well from newborn to almost 4 years old now. My only thing is it is the most insane car seat to get in and out. She's comfortable in it I feel that she is safe the material is good the only problem I have with it is that I get extremely upset when I have to take it out to clean it or adjust it. It is not easy to put in it is not easy to ta...

Light weight
We bought this as it was light and slim. We are planning on using this as our travel car seat in the airport. Super easy to install and my son loves it.

Light, travel-friendly, but no recline
I love how light this seat is, and I really love the closed belt path. I bought it as a backup seat and for air travel, and I think it will work perfectly. The biggest con for this seat is that it doesn’t have a recline function, so in my vehicle, while rear facing, baby is really laying back. For sleeping on an overnight flight it’ll be great, but not so much for day-t...

Comfortable and relatively lightweight
Fit my 9 month old comfortably and she took to it right away. While being slim there’s still plenty of room for our baby (she’s at about the 45th percentile weight wise). This car seat is lightweight compared to other similar convertible car seats. We checked it at the counter when traveling by plane with no issues (or visible damage) since our baby was a lap infant.

Great Car Seat
Our grandson is outgrowing his "pumpkin" car seat, so I bought the Graco Contender Slim Convertible Car Seat to have in our car. My husband and I drove from St Louis, Mo to Atlanta, GA with our daughter and grandson to introduce him to family members who had been sick at Christmas and hadn't gotten to meet him. We used our car seat and to say that he was happier in it t...

The BEST!
Simply the best car seat, and I’ve had 2 in the last 10 years because of a huge age gap we are still buying them! This model is great for compact cars, smaller suvs and overall a great seat!

Don't do it
Impossible to get tight. I've been trying all day but it just won't stay tight. Fire Department couldn't do it either. Now I have to look for a new one.
