    'WELL WORTH IT !!!'
    Strengths:
    Good, sturdy Car Seat that not only look, but is very safe.
    Weaknesses:
    Recliner does not recline as far back as i would like it to go, but my little girl sits upright and sleep now, so not that big an weakness (afterall she is not a little baby anymore-20 months)
    Overall:
    Good purchase - not sorry at all. Easy to install between our two vehicles, and also lightweight.

    'A MUST HAVE FOR COMFORT AND SAFETY IN THE CAR!'
    Strengths:
    Very well padded and comfortable. Folds in half for storage when not in use.
    Weaknesses:
    None.
    Overall:
    Really impressed by this car seat! A true all - rounder! It's fully adjustable height, and shoulder width allow for it to grow with your child. It also has lots of leg space and it reclines.
    The built in speakers are a great touch - keeps my daughter occupied and content for hrs.

    'EXPENSIVE BUT WORTH EVERY PENNY!'
    Strengths:
    No signs of cheapness - a strong, solid shell with a wealth of padding (including on the sides of her head) and the fabric and foam are of top quality. This keeps my child comfortable, which is good for long journeys.
    A very safe car seat, especially when considering characterisics such as the way the belt clamps near the headrest.
    You get a range of extra features, including a reclining position for when she goes to sleep, also there are speakers in the headrest.
    Long-lasting - I am using it for my second child now.
    Weaknesses:
    Expensive.
    Recline feature is sometimes stiff.
    The product manual wasn't completely clear.
    Overall:
    Safety, long life, and comfort. Is there any more boxes that need to be ticked for the perfect car seat? It may be a small fortune but it is well worth the investment. As the saying goes 'you get what you pay for'.
