Love it!

Recaro really got it right with this seat! Our 2 year old has been in this seat for a year, and he seems very happy in it. We have a Como as well, and while that's a perfectly good seat, this one has some great improvements. The "head wings" are great when he falls asleep. The buckle is easier to operate. Food and drink spills usually wipe off easily if you get to them quickly. The seat disassembles much more easily, and you can remove all the cushioning down to plastic and styrofoam for cleaning (good feature if your kid gets carsick). The material is easier to clean as well, but you have to wash it by hand. The shoulder harnesses adjust with the headrest, so you don't have to take them out and reinstall them in different slots. The manual fits in a side pocket instead of the back of the seat, so you can get to it while the seat is installed. It's a big, heavy seat, which is probably a good thing for protection, but we use a smaller one when traveling on airplanes. We haven't tried the booster seat function yet, but so far we're very happy (and so is our kiddo!)
Pros:
Easy to disassemble
Most spills wipe off the microfiber material
Harness releases easily, like a car seatbelt
Easy to adjust headrest
Easiest LATCH system I've ever used
Comfy
Cons:
Big
Heavy
