Graco Extend2Fit Car Seat, Stocklyn

This seat is confortable and durable, but I really dislike it for a couple of reasons: My biggest concern is that it is EXTREMELY difficult to tighten the straps. I have a Foonf in my car, have had the Cosco Scenera and Cosco Finale for travel, and the Chicco MyFit, and this is by far the hardest to tighten, to the point where I don’t feel that it is safe. I imagine that my husband - who’s usually in a hurry and isn’t as educated on car seat safety stuff - tightens it until he thinks it’s “good enough”, when it’s not good enough and would not protect my child in an accident. For this reason, we will discontinue use of this car seat. The other thing that really annoyed me is that, once you’re ready to switch to forward facing, it's supposed to be at incline 4 until the child reaches 40 pounds. Incline 4 looks extraordinarily uncomfortable, like really really reclined (think: infant recline). My son is thin, but there are definitely kids who weigh less. He probably won’t get to 40 lbs until he’s 6 (he’s 5 now). We instead went with a harness/booster combo (Chicco MyFit) and we’re much happy with it.
