I don't like this seat at all. It is not user-friendly. We had been using Britax car seats, but I didn't want to spend as much money this time. Yet, this car seat feels so awkward and clumsy. The clasps take a lot more effort than my other car seats, and it's even difficult pulling the straps tight ~ not impossible, but it takes a lot more energy. We have another booster for my 5 year old in our other car, and I like that seat a lot more (from Costco). I don't recommend this seat at all; I wish I could get rid of it. It's funny, because the Costco seat was less expensive, but it's obvious that it's a higher quality seat.
