 awesome carseat July 16, 2008
We love these car seats! I bought two, one for each son. I love knowing that they are safe. The ONLY negative (and this is not always a negative)is that it is very tall and may not fit in all cars in the rear-facing position. When it is front-facing, that is a positive, as it can accommodate taller children! The push-button release on the LATCH clips is also great. It makes installation a breeze! I wish more people knew about the amazing safety features. I don't believe they have ever been recalled and they have a 5 point harness up to 80 pounds!
Comfort & safety...love this car seat! June 29, 2008
We purchased this car seat for our daughter and more recently for our son. They both love how comfortable it is and we love the safety factor. We've not had issues with the velcro as others have stated.
Buying a 2nd one-Very happy May 10, 2008

I did a ton of research on car seats to move my 1 year old up. After meeting with a safety expert (who was not paid to endorse any particular car seat) and seeing the Britax Boulevard, Recaro Signo, and Sunshine Kids Radian 80 side by side, this was the clear winner for us. She has both of her kids in this car seat too.
Winning features for us: I love that he can still be rear facing up to 33 pounds. This is a much thinner car seat than any other I looked at and fits in my tiny Honda Civic with an infant base next to it. The folding feature is great for airline travel. Up to 80 pounds, so we won't have to shop for another seat.
Wish it had: Not much more, it serves it's purpose well. It is a long seat and the front passenger seat needed to move up quite a bit to fit it in the rear facing position.
 good seat April 10, 2008

After considering a booster seat and then doing all the research I realized that I have to go 5 point harness for the rest of my child's life! My daughter is 34 pounds at 2 years old and my second girl is 10 months and ready to move out of the infant seat. We had to make a change.
Given that the only two options were the Britax and the Sunshine Kids, I am very pleased that I bought the SK one. The Britax one in the store is huge. I have a Boulevard for our other car, so I know the quality but it only goes to 65 lbs. (I also have a Evenflow (VERY challenging straps) and a Cosco Alpha Omega - good but only 45lbs)
The things I like about SK: slim line design, folding seat, comfort for child.
Things that could be better about SK: cool fabric seems to stain easily and will get caught on the velcro on the sholder straps, if you have a clever child they can loosen the sholder straps easily by pulling UP on the relase strap and leaning forward. All of our other seats tighten with the pulling up motion of the relase strap not loosen - keep and eye out.
I would definity buy this one again (with the other fabric) and would have loved to have known about it 3 car seat purchases ago.
Great car seat!!! April 3, 2008
I was able to install this car seat rear facing with no problems (my son is about 20 lbs now) and have been using it for about a month now. He falls asleep on it right away and it does not leave his back all sweaty, as his old infant seat used to.
I have not used it to travel yet, but will be in about 3 weeks. Tried folding it already and it is rewally easy. I did buy the extra carring strap though (seat comes with one and if you buy a second one you can carry it as a backpack). I really recommend the second strap as this seat is quite heavy.
