Description
    The True Fit Convertible Car Seat can be used from birth right on through to when your child is 65 lbs. The True Fit adapts better and easier to more cars than any other convertible car seat, and offers the comfort and safety features you have come to expect from Compass car seats, Compass booster seats and The First Years travel gear products. It offers deep side wings that have been side-impact tested, a full EPP foam liner that absorbs energy, and built-in lock offs to provide a secure installation without the use of confusing locking clips.

    The pad is extremely comfortable to keep your child content on short errands or long trips. And for parents' ease of use, True-Fit has a no re-thread harness, which means less adjusting as your child grows. The True Fit Convertible Car Seat is truly the only car seat you'll need as your child grows.

I just bought my second!!
March 25, 2011
I got this carseat in 'chocolate' for my now 22 month old son when he was 6 months old after a friend got them for her twins. It has been a great carseat both rear and forward facing. It is large, but for its size it is light and after having carried it, along with baggage, a stroller and my son through various airports alone, I can safely say it's size wasn't an issue! It is easy to cleand very comfy for him. We moved across the country when he was a year old and he did fabulous the entire way! Now, baby #2 is about ready to move up and I wouldn't think of getting a different seat for him! I just bought this one, and am looking forward to getting him into it in the next month! Definetly a great prodect- especially for the price!!
Pros
  • -easy to install!
  • -easy to clean!
  • -comfortable for my son!
  • -light for its size!
Cons
  • -it is large.

my favorite car seat!

I love this car seat! It is so plush - my little guy seems quite comfy in it. We started using it rear facing when he was about 10 months old and had no problems installing it (I did need a noodle under it, though). I liked that the headrest was detachable so it fit better in the van. Now that he is 16 months and forward facing, we popped the headrest on (very easy to do) and he has a lot if room to grow. The seat pad removes so easily - I have washed it many more times than I did with other seats we have owned- and it still looks new. The straps have to be one of my favorite features, they are SO easy to adjust! I plan on purchasing another seat when our next baby is born. The price is fantastic for the quality of the seat - it is big, but I feel that it is very safe and highly recommend it!Note: We reserve the right to edit or reject reviews that include inappropriate content, profanity, references to other retailers, pricing, or personal information.

  • very easy to clean

I recently purchased the True Fit Convertible Carseat in Misty Morning, after putting my 7month old son, who is 21lbs, and was getting to big for his infant seat. Installing this was a breeze and very easy to follow instructions. I have read MANY reviews on this product, and have heard negative things on the installation,however I didn't have any trouble.

Great Car Seat

This car seat has fulfill all my expectations. I am a first time mom and after buying a lot of baby things, that either my son or me used, just because of people advice and reviews, I realized that I had to do my own research and find the right car seat for me and for my baby. Knowing that this is really a big investment, I wanted to get the right thing that will last long without feeling ripoff. I read almost all reviews of the top ten car seats available in the market and I went to different stores and tried them with my baby to see what it was best for us. This is why I give 5 stars to the First Years True Fit Convertible Car Seat.1. My car is a Ford Taurus so I needed a car seat that did not block my view or the front seats space if the car seat was rear facing. Easy, I am using it without the headrest and is perfect.2. I checked the padding of other car seats (something that you can't do on-line) and this one is as good padded as a $400 car seat. This will keep my son comfortable and it will assure me that in a couple of years the cushioning is going to last when he gets heavier.3. Adjusting the harness height without having to rethread harness straps is awesome!!! and is very sturdy.4. Taking out and in the cover to wash it, it's so easy, 5 seconds. and you don't have to take the whole car seat out of the car.5. My car has all the metal rings for the car seat's easy latch system so it was super easy to install even the first time. A week ago, I had to use a pickup truck for a week (the ones that has a back seat but without back doors, and no lap belts) and I thought, here comes the trouble, I had to install the car seat with the regular seat-belt the one that comes from the top corner, and guess what? thankfully it was as easy as in my car.6. I read a review of a mom with 2 kids, 3 years difference in between them, she gave a great review plus pictures of her 2 kids using it. What can be more convincing than that?7. Super soft and confy fabric.8. The only bad review that it had was that the crotch harness was to close to the back, even in the biggest position (it has 2 levels) so making it very uncomfortable for boys. I measure it and compare it with others and has the same depth as the Britax. You have to make sure to take out the extra padding that brings for newborns.This is a product that do not have much reviews (maybe to new) comparing to other convertible car seats, so as a happy customer I thought is right to write a review about it. Definitely it is the best buy I have done for a long time.
