We are happy with the purchase of this seat. I am a stickler for safety and it was hard choice to go with this seat since it is so hard to find in the brick and mortar stores near us. However taking the leap was great and couldn't be happier.
After careful review of many seats (including the britax, we felt this was a streamlined seat compared to it) over the course of a month as my son was growing to the brink of outgrowing his smaller seat, we wanted to keep him rear facing as long as possible for safety.
I loved this seat from the day it arrived, it is a nice seat, airport approved, the adjustability, comfort, padding and safety features in a relatively compact package. Compared to a lot of the seats on the market, it has the best mix of comfort, safety and ease of use of all the seats we tried.
It was easy to install, both with LATCH or without. I haven't tried it forward facing, but I don't see it being any different, only adding the anchor. The straps are comfortable for my son and we love to drive and know he is doing good from the silence we hear. It is a lot bigger than a standard rear facing seat, but was among the smallest of the safer seats (smaller footprint, but nice and big for the kid) we tested and is not too difficult to get our son in and out. the straps are incredibly easy to adjust when needed and the shoulder pads help line up the straps to put them on and then just pull and you are done! We also live in AZ and it gets really hot here, and I was worried with all the padding it would be too much, but we crank the AC on and there are vents in the back of the seat that are great. He comes out of the seat less sweaty than in his other Chicco infant seat.
Overall a great purchase and you will be satisfied and happy making the leap to this seat.
Recaro Signo Vs Britax May 11, 2008

I did a lot of research and narrowed it down between Recaro and Britax. I choose the Recaro. It's a little bit less expensive, I liked the style better... and it does go up just a few pounds and inches more (5-70lbs w/ up to 35 RF vs Britax 33 RF and an Absolute Maximum height of 60 inches (rec. is 50) vs Britax 49). It was a toss up though until I read all the reviews. A lot of people shy away from the Recaro just because it hasn't been around as long in the U.S. and everyone has Britax, but they meet the same standards and pass the same tests. Recaro ranks right there with Britax in other countries... not to mention Recaro makes racing seats so if they are good enough for NASCAR they are good enough for me. I've had this seat for about two months now and my son loves it. I've had minimal problems with the straps and the fabric hasn't caused any issues in the South Texas heat. I did try both out in my vehicle and put my son in both BEFORE buying... Both are big seats, but it has fit fine in all the cars I've had it in so far from a Pathfinder to a little kia rental. Do your research!!! All seats fit different for every car and every child, if you have read all the reviews and have not matched it with your car and child you have wasted your time. I highly recommend this seat.

i bought this seat for my subaru outback, but it totally overwhelmed the space. while the seat felt very sturdy and plush, it wasn't at all practical for my car. if you have an suv, this seat would be a good choice, otherwise, i'd go for something smaller. we ended up getting the maxi cosi priori instead, and it fits very nicely.

This seat is amazing. I was a little uneasy about ordering it as I had not looked at it in person, only online. But going on the reputation of their race car seats, I decided to give it a shot. I am very impressed with the quality and safety features of this seat. Installing was not to difficult. Though an adjustable base would be an added benefit. The belts do tend to twist as stated in the other reviews I read, but this is minor compared to the twisting that happened with the seat I had for my son almost 10 years ago. (The seats sure have come a long way!!) The unsupported side cushions also need adjusting after the baby is in the seat. She does seam to be very comfortable in this seat and sleeps well in it. There is a lot of head support, which I find very important. This seat is well made and definitly worth every penny. We call it her moon seat because it looks as though it would survive a trip on the space shuttle. I would give it 5 stars except for the twisting of the belts and readjustment of the cushion. I truly feel my daughter is very well protected in this seat and altemently that is what it is all about.
Great seat, but two flaws July 30, 2008

Well I have only had this seat for a fews day, so I may need to edit this in the future. Currently I am using it in a small car, rear facing. It is a large seat, but it does fit. The padding and fabric are great feeling, and my son seemed to really like it (he passed out about 5 minutes into the ride). So my two gripes with this seat are the following.. there is a rear cover that you need to remove to adjust the straps - not sure about anyone else but I had a heck of a time removing that. It took my husband and I 20 mins to finally get the thing off. Really it just took a good amount of muscle to pry it free. My second gripe is that the headrest only has one belt loop in it, making it not so adjustable. I ended up having to take it up because at the height it had to be at, my son's whole body was in the headrest. All they need to do is add a few more loops to it and it would be golden. Other than those two things, it is a really nice seat and I am probably going to buy a second one for my other car.
