I totally fit into my kid’s seat too 🤣 we have the grace extend2fit 3in1 and we love it, but seriously, I am 4’11 and 98 lbs so I can absolutely still fit in it haha
My friend bought this car seat and it has been excellent! She doesn't have a lot of money and this car seat has saved her a lot of money as her son grows. I am now pregnant and plan on buying it!
Just installed this in my car can’t believe I’ve had it in my closet for 7 months this is so much easier than my old one should’ve had it from the get go
We have four of these seats for our twins. Purchased at 12 months when they outgrew the infant seats. Great investment as 5 years later they are still keeping them safe every day. Have washed the covers dozens of times and they have held up really well.
We tried this here in Canada. They told me that we couldn't legally said they checked it. I guess the liability but they looked ours over and said all good
I love these videos 📹 they are so very helpful! Susan and I (Ron) are trying for our first child! This Child seat is a Must Have for any SUV or Sedan. It's seems Perfect! And it will last forever! 😇👍❤
It’s the story of almost every house having kids, it’s all because of our poor diet habits. Full of sugar and carbs and almost none vegetables, fruits and fibre and our meals
@@malo3287 Uh what? Pretty bold of you to assume that. My child eats very healthy. She’s just been in the 99 percentile for height and weight since birth. 🤔
I think state law is what determines how long you child needs to be in a car seat for. In Michigan, it's 8 years old OR 4'9; it's whichever comes first.
This is one and done if you plan to have one kid and be done with it. If you plan on having 3-4 kids, having multiple car seats for different ages will save you a ton of money.
I couldn't agree more with this!! With multiple kids, I totally recommend having car seats meant for different stages of growth instead of all-in-one options for each child. Having 3 of these convertible car seats would get pricey real quick!
Having my first baby and we always start off with the price followed by how many years it can be used and lastly features, safety, ease of use and comparison. My wife and I always tackle these decisions. Today we looked at Graco 4Ever Extended2fit platinum All in one. It was so worth the price knowing it’ll be used for a very long time. Convertible cribs, double flipped mattresses, pack n play with included sleeper, all that are multifunctional are the best for any budget while still getting a quality product. I’m still thinking of getting a Chicco bravo trio LE that’s a bit expensive for me or spend more on an umbrella stroller in the future since the Bravo Trio Le is a bit bulky and may very well only be used for a short time.
I’m still stuck on if I should keep the handle car seat for going outdoors? Or would a baby carrier be enough? I want them close to me anyway and I do love this car seat. I just think this one is meant to stay in the car at all times
Thanks for your help! I’ve been trying to figure out the next step from his infant car seat. I wish I had bought this in the beginning but 🤷🏾♀️oh well. One and done now! 😂😂
I really want this but not sure about two things. 1. Does the headrest rattle as you drive with or without the baby? 2. If baby will fall asleep does the head rest push the baby forward which baby head may end wobbling forward? Have you had these issues?
Good questions, Yuri! Julie did has not heard any rattling while driving, and she said her daughter's head does fall forward while she's snoozing when sitting upright, but that's pretty standard. It's most important to be sure you're following the safe install instructions and getting the correct include adjustment for the mode you're using. Hope this helps!
Very informative my only question is is it FAA approve ? Im flying next month and I just order this car seat before hearing that it needs to be FAA approved so is it?
Hey Nicole! Looking at page 11 of the manual, it looks like this seat is FAA approved so long as it's not being used in booster mode (since planes don't have shoulder belts): download.gracobaby.com/ProductInstructionManuals/PD276106E_PD276107E.pdf Hope that helps!
This seat would be way too wide for three across. Not sure exacts but for three across most seats need to be around 17 inches wide and this seat is more than that. Honestly with triplets I’d start with infant seats. But diono and cleck are very three across friendly. But I’d recommend an infant seat for the first year then move to a rear facing convertable until the max out rear facing then you can ff. Also make sure ur car has three top teathers for down the road ff, but that will be far from now since kids need to be rear facing as long as possible 🥰
The cupholders give it a bit of extra width, so it measures about 19.5 inches wide. For reference, the Clek fllo (which is marketed as one of the narrowest on the market), is 16.9 in. wide: www.babylist.com/gp/clek-fllo-convertible-car-seat/11433/54768?
Good question! On page 97 of the manual it says the placement of the seat is actually dependent on what your VEHICLE owner's manual recommends. Here's the car seat manual for reference: download.gracobaby.com/ProductInstructionManuals/PD303535A_PD303536A.pdf
This is actually a CONVERTIBLE car seat that would not go in and out of your car like an INFANT car seat does. Here's a video to help break down the differences: ua-cam.com/video/1tDyHVn6gGw/v-deo.html
How do you take the car seat off the base, everywhere I look says you can’t but you obviously can lol, I just need to clean it , I love this car seat my sons been using it since he was 6 months old (he’s 16 months now)and I’m going to get one for my daughter as well
You can't necessarily remove convertible car seats from their bases (since they don't have them like infant car seats do), but this car seat does convert into a booster seat, so you could break it down like that! Here's another video that walks you through how to do it: ua-cam.com/video/M95ilXWC9v0/v-deo.html
I have a question, my daughter is going to be 6 months old can she use this one? :/ the car seat that she has makes her uncomfortable and she keeps crying and crying when i put her on there
Great question! Unlike an infant car seat, this convertible car seat does NOT detach from it's base. It does convert to a backless booster though. Hope that helps!
Babylist - I m pregnant with my first baby so I have absolutely no knowledge of car seats. So if isn’t detachable then do I need to buy a separate infant seat to put on the stroller when we get out of the car? I hear the regular stroller seat can be used for an infant and that you need to detach the car seat from the car and put it onto the stroller before placing the baby in the stroller. I might be wrong but I would appreciate your reply
S S I got a separate infant car seat to use for the first few months so I could take him out and carry him car seat and all. I would suggest you do this because it makes things A LOT easier
Convertible car seats don't usually fit in strollers, but infant car seats do! Consider an infant car seat + adaptor + stroller combo, or a "travel system" which is a compatible stroller + infant car seat bundle. Here's an article that could help: www.babylist.com/hello-baby/how-to-choose-a-travel-system
No, it can’t put on a stroller and this car seat itself is very heavy!!! From my experience, I recommend buying a not too expensive travel system to use for the 1st year. Although the 4ever advertise to use from newborns but for me no, it’s not!!! On rear facing, even if you max out the reclining position, the baby neck still hanging and look very uncomfortable. Neck support not helping either cuz those are for toddlers! I’ve bought this when my baby turn one, i’ve used it twice then now go back to use the infant car seat because it’s more recline angle and he’s look comfy when falling asleep.
This is a Convertible Car Seat, so it would remain hooked into your car. Most Infant Car Seats can attach into a stroller, or work as a travel system. However, once your baby outgrows an Infant Car Seat (usually at around 12 months), you will need to convert to using a Convertible Car Seat, like this one. Check out this video for more clarity: ua-cam.com/video/6-vWjqa7Nkc/v-deo.html 👌
Hey Debbie, in general you only need bases for infant car seats, and the Graco 4Ever is actually a convertible car seat. Here's an article to help you see the difference: www.babylist.com/hello-baby/car-seats This car seat is all one piece so you can transfer it from car to car without a base (because it doesn't have one). Let us know if there's any other help we can offer!
Why 5 years? Others I have spoken to have managed to keep the seat for at least 7-8 years. You get more monies worth out if this one then you would for a Clek
My wife is 5 feet and weighs 95lbs.... She'll love this lol
I used this product and was very satisfied. You can get from this link: amzn.to/2OdR7lT
Put her in it lol
😂
🤣🤣
I totally fit into my kid’s seat too 🤣 we have the grace extend2fit 3in1 and we love it, but seriously, I am 4’11 and 98 lbs so I can absolutely still fit in it haha

2 cup holders: One for drink one for snacks!
I used this product and was very satisfied. You can get from this link: amzn.to/2OdR7lT
Best purchase ever my son is 6 and still using it 💙
We have four of these seats for our twins. Purchased at 12 months when they outgrew the infant seats. Great investment as 5 years later they are still keeping them safe every day. Have washed the covers dozens of times and they have held up really well.
If you're nervous about install, police/fire departments are sometimes willing to assist with installation before your baby comes home.
We tried this here in Canada. They told me that we couldn't legally said they checked it. I guess the liability but they looked ours over and said all good
I bpught a graco 35 snugfit and then bought 2 of these for my kid. One for each car. Love this seat!
Yay! So good to hear 🙌
I love these videos 📹 they are so very helpful! Susan and I (Ron) are trying for our first child! This Child seat is a Must
Have for any SUV or Sedan. It's seems
Perfect! And it will last forever! 😇👍❤
Dang girl get a raise you convinced me 100% 😄👌
“Once your child hits 45 lbs around 5 years old...” 😳 My daughter turns 3 in 3 months and is 42 lbs right now...
It’s the story of almost every house having kids, it’s all because of our poor diet habits. Full of sugar and carbs and almost none vegetables, fruits and fibre and our meals
@@malo3287 Uh what? Pretty bold of you to assume that. My child eats very healthy. She’s just been in the 99 percentile for height and weight since birth. 🤔
Does anyone know if this has the option for the carrying bar or does this car seat JUST stay in the vehicle while used as a bucket rear facing seat?
Thus just stays in the car. I think only the travel systems are the ones you can take in and out the car.
Well explained 👍
I have to blink twice, I thought I was watching gal gadot reviews
I think state law is what determines how long you child needs to be in a car seat for. In Michigan, it's 8 years old OR 4'9; it's whichever comes first.
Great point Rebekah! Here's a great resource for checking your state laws: csftl.org/state-laws/
Yeah in my country it's 5 years old and then you cant sit in the front until you're 12.
This is one and done if you plan to have one kid and be done with it. If you plan on having 3-4 kids, having multiple car seats for different ages will save you a ton of money.

I’m not sure if I should get Graco 4ever all in one or the Graco extend2fit 3 in 1..
I just got this one. Thanks again Julie
For 2 beers! 🍻
My wife just got home with it. & I’m kinda jealous of my son.
😂😂😂
Hahaha, right? I thought the same thing when I was at the store. Some of these look like professional race car driver seats.
I used this product and was very satisfied. You can get from this link: amzn.to/2OdR7lT
😂😂
Hi, i would like to buy a same if still available?

Way to tackle this whole parenting thing! You guys are awesome 💪
when should you take off the infant inserts?
I did when my son was a year old
I’m still stuck on if I should keep the handle car seat for going outdoors? Or would a baby carrier be enough? I want them close to me anyway and I do love this car seat. I just think this one is meant to stay in the car at all times
I'm 115 lbs.... Should I be in this booster seat?! Super excited to install this for our little guy, we've heard so much about it.
😂 That's a solid weight range, right?!
I used this product and was very satisfied. You can get from this link: amzn.to/2OdR7lT
One cup for drinks the other for snacks😆😆🤪🤪
Thanks for your help! I’ve been trying to figure out the next step from his infant car seat. I wish I had bought this in the beginning but 🤷🏾♀️oh well. One and done now! 😂😂
when do you remove the insert
What color is the car seat in the video?
kristin coleman black / gray
I think the other cup holder is for a person sitting next to them?
You could be right! 😂
This is lovely
I really want this but not sure about two things. 1. Does the headrest rattle as you drive with or without the baby? 2. If baby will fall asleep does the head rest push the baby forward which baby head may end wobbling forward? Have you had these issues?

199$ at costco!

is there any stroller compatible with this car seat ?
If your child was in the right seat that will be like child restraints are going to make a difference if only they already have mafe a difference.
Does this not have the carry handle for when the child is really small and you need to get sleeping baby out??
No this is a convertible carseat..
My wife is pregnant with triplets. Whats the width like? Hoping I can fit three in the back seat.
This seat would be way too wide for three across. Not sure exacts but for three across most seats need to be around 17 inches wide and this seat is more than that. Honestly with triplets I’d start with infant seats. But diono and cleck are very three across friendly.

Also make sure ur car has three top teathers for down the road ff, but that will be far from now since kids need to be rear facing as long as possible 🥰
Someone please help me with what strollers this car seat is compatible with.
Would I need to purchase a car seat base for this? Also will I be able to take it out and put it in my graco fast action jogger lax stroller?
this is not a removable car seat
I’m surprised they don’t charge more! It’s only $230 & some car seats are 300 or more!
It's 650 USD in my country
I used this product and was very satisfied. You can get from this link: amzn.to/2OdR7lT
Is it slim?? Does it take up lots of room?
The cupholders give it a bit of extra width, so it measures about 19.5 inches wide. For reference, the Clek fllo (which is marketed as one of the narrowest on the market), is 16.9 in. wide: www.babylist.com/gp/clek-fllo-convertible-car-seat/11433/54768?
can this be installed at the middle seat?
Good question! On page 97 of the manual it says the placement of the seat is actually dependent on what your VEHICLE owner's manual recommends. Here's the car seat manual for reference: download.gracobaby.com/ProductInstructionManuals/PD303535A_PD303536A.pdf
120 lbs??? I was that in ninth grade
When I'm not pregnant I'm slightly heavier than that.
I’m convinced.
Very informative video thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Will it fit in Honda Civic? And do we need to get seat base ?
The seat doesn’t have a handle ?? Cause if u have a baby and u need to go into a grocery store how are u gonna carry it ??
That's where baby wearing comes into play!
This is actually a CONVERTIBLE car seat that would not go in and out of your car like an INFANT car seat does. Here's a video to help break down the differences: ua-cam.com/video/1tDyHVn6gGw/v-deo.html
It's a convertible car seat, you can't detach it and carry it around.....baby must come out.
can i put this bucket right into my stroller?
How do you take the car seat off the base, everywhere I look says you can’t but you obviously can lol, I just need to clean it , I love this car seat my sons been using it since he was 6 months old (he’s 16 months now)and I’m going to get one for my daughter as well

Don’t buy it’s the pads are discontinued
what stroller works the best for this 4ever car seat?
This is a convertible car seat so it’s meant to stay in the vehicle. It’s not a carrier and can’t be put into a stroller
GRACO 🤍🖤🤍🖤
Is the car seat detachable from the base?

No

Anyone know of a stroller that is good for this car seat
People who own this car seat will tell you it won't last past 5 years. The 10 years (forever) is more of marketing by Graco.
Why 5 years? Others I have spoken to have managed to keep the seat for at least 7-8 years.
You get more monies worth out if this one then you would for a Clek
