rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - This seat seems like a nice cheap seat, great for people who don't have a lot of money to spend but it has two significant drawbacks which lead me not to recommend it.

The first is that it an only be used rear-facing to 22 lbs. Almost every...

Tue, 2 Oct 2001 05:36:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - I know this is going to sounds silly but I've always wanted an umbrella stroller! I've always had big heavy strollers and I thought it would be so nice to have a light one that fit in the trunk, along with groceries!

The problem was that...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - Graco is now making a couple of different seats using this same shell, the problem is that not all of them have a front adjuster! If you want this seat make sure the one you are getting does! As I write this the seats at toys R us and wal-mart still...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - can't believe I'm the first person to be annoyed with this toy! The kids got this toy for X-mas from my cousin. My cousin thought it would be a good gift since mom teaches piano and she knew that she just started teaching my 4 year old. I was excited...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - I received this seat in Oct of 98. I had a Gerry One Click for my two year old son which was damaged. I had checked it as baggage when we flew and it came back with the shield cracked. I now know how dangerous it is not to have a child in a car seat...

Read if your straps are too short........

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - Let me first say that the "DX 5" is supposed to be the 5-point version of the seat. Someone at Graco must have messed up though because there are seats that say "DX 5" on them but they are really 3-points. If you want the 5-point please double check...

Bravo LX Car Seat: Nice seat but one flaw!

Wed, 4 Oct 2000 07:49:41 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - This is a nice seat and I am glad it is now only being made in the 5-point version and not the horrid shield. It does fits more cars rear-facing then the smart move. The seat has one major problem though! The top harness slots are too short!

Maxi-Cosi Priori: This price is wrong! The seat is $200!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - This is a nice seat that will fit the needs of a small segment of the population. The fact that the seat does not rear-face and the price will turn a lot of people off.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - Century has just release a new version of this seat! Both versions will be available and the new one is approximately $10 more but it is WORTH IT! There are three major problems with the old version of this seat that have been fixed by the new one.

If you want to use the harness there are better boosters....

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author emandbri - This seat is fine when used as a booster but if you want to use the harness it has two major drawbacks. The first is you can’t easily adjust the straps! The straps need to be tight. So tight in fact that if your child puts on a jacket or a sweater you...
