The Graco Tranzitions 3-in-1 Harness Booster Car Seat is a forward-facing seat that converts from a 5-point harness (22–65 lb) to a highback booster (40–100 lb) and then to a backless booster (40–100 lb). It weighs 14 lb, measures 19”W x 26.5”H x 17.4”D, features a no-rethread Simply Safe Adjust harness with 9-position headrest, LATCH installation, two cup holders, and a machine-washable seat pad. Reviewers note its narrow 17.5” width works well for three-across and travel (FAA approved in harness mode), but installation can be difficult and the padding is thin, potentially causing pressure points on long rides.

Good and easy to install.

WelD

Sturdy and easy to install. Padding is not too soft or thick. May be a bit hard and unconfortable for some kids. Fairly straight forward from out the box to installing in car. Took about 4 minutes.

Good fit

Reviewed

The booster seat is a great size width wise. I was able to fit the Tranzition and a full size car seat next to each other in a Mazda CX-5. The size of the seat is spacious.

Travel car seat

Jay H

I brought this for travel car sit. It is light weight. Only down fall is that water bottle holder is small and does not stay in.

Excellent product

Rkb1

It’s compact and excellent quality for the price. Fits very well. Easy to set up. Switching from one car to another is very easy.

Perfect

Angiecp

Fits nicely in my car, easy to install and feels secure and comfy for my 3 year old

Great seat for small butts

BCircus

Great booster option for kiddos that are between a rear-facing seat and a backed booster. My 4yo says he loves it and that it's very comfy

All You Need

Jeanette D

Functional and easy to use. This is the perfect carseat for a preschool age kid.

Light weight and easy installation

Jalyn

Was looking for a car seat to replace my graco 4ever dlx after a car accident. The reviews were good, and I wanted something that could easily be moved to a different car. I would definitely recommend it.

Booster seat

Steph A

I bought this to use in my vehicle when my grandson is with us. Easy to install, easy to adjust as needed.

Love it!

Victoria4006

We love this car seat. It's a slim car seat, so it fits easily in my backseat. My 4 year old says it is much more comfortable than the Chicco All in one that we had before; it's also significantly lighter as well.

Great seat with smaller profile!

Julieann17

This was a great change up for our three year old. We have a smaller truck (Colorado) and with two full sized car seats, it was a little crowded in the back seat. This has freed up more room and it’s easier for him to climb into. I love that it will continue to transition with him as he grows! All of our car seats are Graco, we trust this brand!

Love it!

MommyG

I love, love this car seat. Only one thing it doesn’t get right enough.

Great transition seat

Alli B

Great for a 4 year old who doesn’t need the bulky convertible car seat.

Good Product

NorCalTechy

Like the design and looks like it would give support and protection in various angles in the event of an accident. The only thing that is missing, is some cushioning everywhere the child will ve in contact.

So much better than the Graco Slimfit 3 in 1.

Dustin H

Highly recommended. Love this seat. I have both this and the Graco Slimfit 3 in 1. This one is smaller and much easier to put the kids in when they are bigger and cheaper. Definitly recommend this on of that one.

Highly recommend

Ally M

Highly recommend, very sturdy, comfortable. I like the harness it’s easy to connect but still hard enough my 6 year old can’t unbuckle herself.

Second one

MW PA

This is great as the little ones get older. Easy for them to get in and out and doesn’t take up much space.

Light, easy to use, great for air travel.

Brettyo

Light, easy to use and barebones. Great for air travel.

Great option for toddler or bigger!

lakewooddadof2

Such a great upgrade from the infant-to-toddler versions. Way less bulky, more comfortable for our two-year old. Very light and would travel extremely well.

Easy ordering

Gramma Amy

Easy website ordering, easy setup and easy installation

good balance of features and value

Benjamin Kay

Easy to install, use, and clean. Not the cheapest car seat, and far from the most expensive. A good balance of safety, comfort, and reasonable price. Leaves enough room for an adult to sit on either side. Bought two (one for each car).

Safe and comfy

AbFa

My daughter says it’s comfy, she sleeps in it great

Definitely recommend

Destiney C

Absolutely love this !!! Easy to assemble and put in car. Five point harness is great and i feel my son is safe.

Perfect!

KMAB

Not too Bulky. Simpler nice look and easy for my toddler to climb into :)

Nice booster seat

Betsy Vanlandschoot

I watched a YouTube video on securing it in my car. My grandson finds it quite comfy

Amazing seat!

T Osborne

Got this seat to replace my 4 year olds accide after a car accident. And he loves feeling like a big boy, and momma loves the security of a 5 pt harness!

Happy

Lmfart

It sits low, and the cup holders swing in. The crotch button part seems bulky between my kids legs and a little cumbersome but overall happy with this one!

Great, Safe seat!

OxfordMomma

This seat installs very easy and is perfect for my 4 year old who will turn 5 in October. The seat is very secure and sturdy. We bought 4 of them for each of out cars and and grandparents! This should be our last carseat and I am very pleased with it after just one month of daily use.

Toddler Car Seat - Tranzition 3 in 1

Marley M

One needs to use an inordinate amount of pressure in pushing the car seat down into the back seat of car to secure it tightly in preventing significant sideway sliding. It took 6 attempts to meet with success.

Love graco!

Chona L

Bought 2 for my twin boys we are very satisfied with the fact that it can actually transition to a booster seat and my boys loved it as it is very comfortable for them, plus me and my husband are graco fans anyway all our baby stuff are graco, we just trust their product so much, as it is priced reasonably, constructed safely and the quality are superb!

Good Car seat for the price

Salina Grisham

We got this car seat for a spare car seat for my husbands truck. Only CON was it was extremely hard to install properly. It took me about 30 minutes to get to the safe no more than 1 inch movement. Other than that it seems great and a nice car seat for parents who are on a budget!

Exactly what you expect from Graco.

GracoUser99

As expected. There is no other brand I trust more than Graco when it comes to child safety products.

Will be buying again

Auntie to 5

Its very easy to assemble and install in the car.. The slim fit works great in my captain chairs or in the 3rd row with 2 other car seats. It's comfortable and my niece can get herself buckled and unbuckled without any help the 2 cup holders are a nice bonus

My favorite!

Annemarie

This is the best car seat! I love all of the features that make it so easy to use! Trust me - it’s simple and convenient. It doesn’t stick out into the isle of the car, so other kids can walk through. It’s easy to adjust the size without taking any of the padding or straps off. It feels safe and stays clean. It also has more padding that most car seats so I think it’s comfortable!

Great Car Seat

CassieNicole

Comfortable, very reasonably priced, fits my 5 year old perfect (in harness) over all a great car seat.

Perfect

Nadia J

First I love how simple it was to put together and it was nice and comfy for my baby boy. I purchased this as just an extra car seat for family road trips and spending time with grandma…I love it and my son loves it. We only buy Graco products and this is why

Love ❤️

Justine G

Perfect seat!! My kids absolutely love them and I’ll never have to buy another seat.

Love it!

Victoria1618

Perfect size for our truck! Nice and comfy according to my toddler!

Fits better in small cars, easy to install

Brian6871

This is perfect, didn't realize toddler seats even existed. Fits better in small cars than our 4ever, and is much lighter. Easy to install and use.

Simplicity at its finest

Jordan T

Highly recommend this seat! Easy assembly, easy installation, and very easy to adjust as needed. This is by far the simplest car seat I’ve had for my now 37lb 4year old. Getting ready to buy another one, and couldn’t be more pleased!

Works great

dustergrl

This is the perfect car seat for my skinny 5 year old. It is easy to install using either seat belt or LATCH system and stays securely in place while tightening him in. Cup holders are easy to install, and the cover is easily removed when it needs to be washed. I have one of these in each of our vehicles for him. I am looking forward to being able to use this seat for him in the other configurations as he grows!

Awesome, my granddaughter loves her big girl seat. She loves looking out of the window!!

Great Quality.

Best Car Seat. I’m sooo in loved with it, my daughter’s loves it even more... No I feel more safer that she’s has the right one for her age. My daughter is 3 and turning 4 this summer . Her safety means more to me than anything...

Easy to install, easy to adjust, feels sturdy

Great booster seat does take up to much space I’m able to fit this seat plus a grace all in one seat and an old child in the backseat.

Awesome and Safe!

3 in 1 harness booster car seat

I bought this car seat for my granddaughter and she loves it! Once properly placed in the car the seat is wonderful. It protects her with a harness and buckle plus she loves the bright pink color. I am very pleased with my purchase and I am giving a rating of 5 stars.

Amazing!!

It’s absolutely perfect for our 2 yr old...she loves it!

It is a simple car seat that does its job. (Bought it accidentally- didn't read where it was only forward facing so haven't used it much)

Only ones I trust

BlessedMomof8

I have 2 autistic kids, they are experts escaping from every place they don't like, but they love their new chairs, they are not even trying to escape from them because they are comfy y safe.

Great car seat

Installation was super easy. My daughter loves that it has cup holders!

Easy install

KT2026

I bought this seat about a month ago and it’s been great! Super easy to install, my child is comfortable, and allows her to ride safely!

Good next step for an older toddler

Katie4981

Switched from an all in one to this for my older child. It provided more leg room and gave me a better view out the rear window. It provides the same Graco safety I had in my all in ones in a lighter package. The install was the same as my other Graco seats and it should be the last seat I but for my child as it can adapt as he grows.

Excellent design and quality

JoeZ

I have used the seat for about a month now. It was easy to put together. The quality feels great and safe. Less bulky compared to other seats.

Best car seat and booster seat

Yogigmom

Bought it as a replacement for my granddaughter, I love it because not expensive, light, she is very comfortable, safe, installation is very easy and Adaptavility

Lightweight, compact, and easy to use

CasK

I love how light and compact this is. Its easy to adjust and use. It's perfect!

Excellent next step

Semph

My daughter (almost 4) had outgrown her convertible car seat (not in height or weight, but in maturity and interest in sitting like the adults). This is the perfect next step to help her feel like a big kid, but still have all the safety protections she needs. This will be all she needs until she's a big kid and can sit on her own in the car.

Great comfortable carseat

CarrieA

Switched from a Chicco Myfit to these because my kiddos were uncomfortable in their myfit. they prefer these over the other one!

Great Car Seat

CHERRIN

Perfect for my toddler! Easy set up and functionality. I appreciate anything that will last a long time and I feel that this car seat is sturdy and slim at the same time. My toddler loves it and feels much more comfortable.

Easy to use

VLynn

Easy to use, perfect size for our very big 3.5 year old. Only issue on installing was my cars headrest getting in the way. My son can buckle himself easily.

Safe, Comfortable, and Grows with Your Child

Ashley Fournier

The Tranzitions™ 3-in-1 Harness Booster has been a great car seat for our family. It’s sturdy, easy to install, and my child finds it very comfortable even on longer rides. I love that it grows with them from a harness seat to a booster, making it a practical and long-lasting option for parents.

Great car seat for my 2.5 yr old

Natbrack

My son loves this seat, even more than his Graco Extend 2 Fit. He can crawl in and out himself and it’s the usual easy, light, simple fit for our car and needs.

Great booster but confusing to install

Nice quality booster, but the way the booster was packaged it made it very hard to understand how to install it. Wish it had full cup holders. My child finds it comfortable.

Easy to Install and Versatile as Kids Grow

MaryKC

This seat is easy to install and allows for a lot more passenger room. It is a great transition from a forward facing seat to a booster.

Perfect for a 4 year old now, and to grow into.

Nama and Daba

We were looking for a transitional seat for our 4 year old granddaughter, because her brother had outgrown his infant seat/stroller and needed to move up to hers. She's on the lighter side, and this model is great. Its easy to install and use, comfortable for her, and looks good too (we purchased black).

Best Jeep Owners Car Seat

Mrs Garcia

I absolutely love the car seat! It’s not bulky and the color is very demure! My toddler loves it and falls asleep comfortably. The straps adjust easily, it was very easy to set it up in the car. I look forward to adjusting it to the booster level for when she gets older. I recommend this car seat for all Jeep owners.

Good seat for a good price

Eliza Gilley

Easy to install, good seat for the price. Sometimes the lower anchor strap can get twisted while installing

Forward-facing car seat

BridgB

This car seat has been great for our 3.5 yr old who we transitioned to forward-facing. It is very easy to install and uninstall, and lightweight to move from vehicle to vehicle with ease. Having multiple color options was an added bonus.

Great Adjustability

Maggie Vest

Not too bulking for a five point harness carseat and easily adjustable as my daughter grows

Affordable, safe, light weight option

Very stable installation with LATCH and tether, very low profile so still lots of room, no kicking the back of the seat. It's roomy and comfortable but straps very secure and easy to get 2 year old in and out. Great value, very happy with it.

Great seat for our 5 y/o

Pandagram

We purchased two of these seats for our 5 y/o son when our youngest outgrew her baby carrier. Our 5 y/o was previously using the Graco 4ever seat and instead of purchasing another 4ever seat(s) (mainly because of the price) for our youngest, we decided to get two ‘Tranzitions’ seats (one for each vehicle) and give his 4ever(s) to our youngest. Our 5 y/o likes this seat, it’s slim enough that it fits nicely in the van, as well as in our truck (Ram). The truck has 3 car seats in one row with his transition seat being between two 4ever seats. Only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the cup holders and overall price of the seat. The cup holders are cheap plastic junk that keep detaching from the seat. They are supposed to click in, but they easily pop out when pushed. They are also kinda small. I also think the seat is a little pricey for what it is, but that’s just my opinion.

Great for Travel

JessC

Lightweight, easy to travel with and to use as a spare car seat. I was able to carry this backpack style with a 3-year-old and a stroller through the airport by myself!

Easy to install and seems to be just right

Jacob H

We've been happy with the 3-in-1 tranzitions so far. It was much easier to install than the large seat it replaces and feels secure. Our toddler seems more at ease and is better able to manage snacks and drinks during the ride. Overall the seat is simple to use and adjust and seems to be just right for what we need without going over-the-top.

Great choice

Ivy B

Love the car seat! Missing a cup holder, but in the process of getting it taken care of!

Comfortable and good price

Rima

This forward facing seat/booster is priced very well, comes in a good variety of colors and is ver comfortable. My child likes the cup holders

Light weight easy to install

Stauf

Light weight easy to install. Wish it had the plastic latch straps instead of the metal hook but all and all a great seat for my toddler. He loves the color too.

Daughter loves it

RMom

It’s great. My daughter loves that she sits up straighter than in her old car seat, and I’m happy she still have a proper harness for a while longer.

Amazing Carseat

LexiBorntreger

Light Weight, East to Clean, very easy to assemble and install into car or truck!

Comfortable, firm car seat that my kids like

Vspar

Comfortable, but firm car seat. Has a slight angle to it which is good for when kids fall asleep. My kids are 4 and 6, with the four year old at 36" height. Both fit well in this seat; will probably have this until kids are ready for no seat at all, as this seat also functions as a booster. Giving it four instead of five as the only characteristic that makes this seat slightly inconvenient are the latches; instead of the push to click into the latch system in the car's seat, they are the spring loop type latches, that require you to hold the clip open with your thumb while you hook the clip onto the seat's latch. This can be a bit tricky if the latches are buried deep in the seats, but not impossible - just takes more effort than the push click type latches.

Great car seat!

Layne H

This car seat is great quality, ready to install. Highly recommend.

3-n-1 car seat

Lauren2boys

It's a great car seat, this is the second one we've bought. However, there is a rattle that will not go away in the headrest. It's loud for the driver, I can only imagine how loud it is for my kid.

Great booster. Better than the babytrend one I bought first. Easy to adjust and buckles the same as the infant seats. Easy to do with one hand for those who have multiple children in carseats. I just wish it had the easy anchor system like the infant seats do. Make this seat harder to remove and put back in when needed.

The manual was not too clear or helpful but we searched direction and assistance on how to assemble/connect this to the car and YouTube did it for me once again. Overall the seat is quality, nice color/texture and so far we are pleased.

Not the greatest option

Great product so far but child’s head leans forward creating chin to chest which is unsafe in infants. Not equipped for tilt. Not recommended for children under 1yr of age.

A Very Good 3 in 1 Seat!

Anonymous

It’s easy to install, quick and simply to put together, and my daughter said she really likes this car seat because it’s comfortable. It’s a very nice 3 in 1 seat at a good price!

My Granddaughter loves her BIG Girl Car Seat. Her mother bought one for her truck and so I bought one for my car.

Perfect car seat for 3 and above

Works great for my 3 year old and I love that it will grown with her!!

Kids like it, I like it

Comfortable for the kids, feels securely strapped to the car.

Great transition seat

Anonymous

Nice light, easy to install, transition seat. Perfect for a child that wants to be in a 5-point carseat for as long as possible.

Horrible install not safe!!

momofboth2717

Not only is this seat nearly impossible to get a secure install, it does not even FEEL safe. We’re a busy family and moving this seat from car to car makes my anxiety worse!! I’m not sure how this seat passes any safety standards.

Just Terrible

Jordan82

Awful design. It's impossible to install tight in either a '20 tacoma or '16 outback. The latch system is way too high and causes the strap to twist. Also, the syncher acts a fulcrum on an edge of the seat. Don't risk your kiddo in this. How it hasnt been recalled yet is beyond me.

Noisy seat

9996

I thought I would love this car seat as much as other Graco’s I have, but it’s difficult to install and even when installed correctly it rattles to the point I can’t even keep it in my car any more.

Most difficult installation & removal EVER!!!

BeaW

I've had this car seat for some time and literally CUT the straps with scissors so I could remove it from the car. It is the most difficult car seat design I have ever seen. The latches are ridiculously designed and difficult to impossible to remove from the anchors. I appreciate safety, but this is over the top. There is no reason a car seat should be so difficult to handle. I am in the process of buying a new car seat and will make sure I buy a seat that has a push button open and release to the anchor. AND, it would be helpful if Graco would show images of the type of latches and/or installation required for their seats so consumers know what latches are on the car seat they are considering.

Absolute junk

Willy bob

Very unsafe and will not tighten down. I would never put my child in this piece of junk.

Nice but disappointed

Roman17

I really liked this seat, I actually bought 3 for my car, my parents, and father in law car so my son could go with either of them. But now that it is time for the booster I am disappointed that the latch part to secure it to the cars seat, there isn't a way to latch them. I have a booster for my husband's car and there are latches for that booster. Very disappointed, the whole reason behind the purchase was because it would transition with my son as he grew. And now for my sons safety and my anxiety I have to purchase a different booster.

Completely UNSAFE!

ShiKi

I love Graco usually. But this has been a nightmare. Once we changed from the latch system (due to weight restrictions) it is so unsafe!! I’m absolutely TERRIFIED of my daughter being in this now. It tips constantly and moves everywhere. The seatbelt even slips ou.

Customer service, policy, and product 0/10

Dixjords

1 week of getting no response from customer service after I had sent in photos, model numbers, manufacture dates, make and models of both vehicles, description of the issue, etc. I called back and at first the woman acted like I shouldn’t have called them with my issue/concern. That I should take it to Target since that is where I purchased the seats 3 months ago. No… It’s a Graco issue. A material DEFECT on BOTH of the car seats. After 3 months of less than regular use the tightening strap is shredding on both sides in both car seats. At this rate this car seat will not last a year. So after convincing her that I am taking the right steps she put me on hold for 30 minutes. Finally comes back and says that the best she can do is send me two of the exact same seats and for me to ship the others back to them. I did not want the exact same seats again. This isn’t a fluke that this is happening to both seats in the same time frame. I wanted to get similar seats or a refund so I can take my money elsewhere. In 3 years I have bought 2 Graco 4Ever DLX’s, 2 Graco Ext2Fits and now 2 Tranzitions. I feel like I am not a valued customer after spending significant money with this company. I explained why I did not want 2 of the exact same seats and was told that was not an option even after stating I would pay the difference if needed. At this point I’d rather be refunded so I can take my business elsewhere. But I was told that also wasn’t an option. I will not be buying another Graco product after this experience. I have been very happy with my other purchases with Graco. But this experience with Customer Service and the product. No thanks.

Moves more than the 1” for safety

Mommabear73849

It is affordable and my little loves it. However, it moves no matter how hard we try to tighten it. My husband even puts all his weight on it and still moves more than the 1” for safety. So disappointed!

rattles

hsshannah96

this seat leads me to lose my ever loving mind. it rattles so much by the screw area even after tightening the screws. it's a shame cause I liked this seat outside of this and I liked the color. I got the wayz at walmart in purple (marley) pattern.

Cant get seat to tighten down

UpNorhtJodi

I love the fact that its light weight but I can not for the life of me get it to tighten down so there is less than the 1" give. I even had my dad help to put more pressure on the car seat and no matter what we did or tried we cant seem to get it.

Can’t install this seat.

WJS432

We just bought this seat yesterday to replace her infant seat. We both drive 4Runners and have had a great experience with another brand. We need a slimmer seat that is light weight for travel. Her current seat has been in the center as everyone says this is the safest option. Couldn’t get the tranzitions seat close to the 1” safety limit in the rear center seat . We then tried the rear passenger seat and had the same result. We will have to return this seat and look for another option.

I want to love this seat

KLV1341

I have 3 children. A 6mo old, 2 yo and a 4 yo so I have a lot of experience with carseats. However this carseats latch system is real tough and hard to pull. It took all I had with both my knees down in the seat holding both hand on the teather to tighten it enough not to wiggle. It has an extremely tough latch system . I gave 3 stars because my 4 year old thinks its comfy and cool. If it wasnt for the latch system I'd prob love it too.

Hard to install

Avarie

I bought this about a month ago and I was not impressed with the installation process. It took three people to help me get it installed properly; when you try to tighten the straps they just twist. Even after tightening them all the way, they car seat still moved at least 4" either way - very scary at first! Ended up using both the seat belt and the straps to ensure that it is properly secured. Not good if you need to move a seat around often. However now that it is properly installed, it's a good quality seat and comfortable for my son.

Worst Car Seat EVER!

Rasniki

I bought this car seat this week. We couldn’t install it safely. Let me start off by saying I’m crazy about car seat safety. When I tried to install this seat(read the manual first) with the anchors I realized I couldn’t get it tight enough to be safely installed. At first I thought it was just me so my husband and my brother both tried for over an hour to get it tight enough. I also tried installing with the seatbelt. Because of how high the space to pass both the seatbelt or anchors through is so high on the seat it can’t tighten properly. With it pulled as tightly as we could the seat easily moved 3-4” each side. I returned it to Walmart this evening and the girl behind the counter said they are constantly getting returns in this seat because of this. Don’t waste your time! So disappointed because I usually love Graco.

Cannot get a tight install

Scoot

I agree with some of the other comments, I cannot get a tight fit with the seatbelt path. It definitely wiggles more than 1 inch, and I’ve installed it about 10 times from start to finish. May need to return it.

Safety

Carie

This carseat is not even legal in my state. Why are sales and distribution not regulated by state law? Just threw away 100 bucks. Will be much more careful about this because safety is clearly not a concern with graco

Three year old can on buckle

Not childproof

Three year old can on buckle the chest buckle in 2.2 seconds

Please Read Before Purchase...Install is painful

J Grand

I bought this car seat as a secondary seat for my daughter, who is beginning to transition to a booster. The seat seems pretty comfy so far, and lightweight given that we will be traveling soon. However, this has to be one of the worst installs I've ever encountered. I used the LATCH system and it took me 30-45 minutes to proper install, given that it is only to move an inch. The key to a proper install is to press down hard on the seat of the car seat and pull the belt from the latch system as hard as you can. I tried the seatbelt option and I do not believe that will ever get the car seat steady enough. Overall, if you are going to keep the car seat in one car, it is not a bad option (once installed). But if you plan on moving it from car to car it is probably worth your time and money to purchase something else...

Looking for cup holders

BoyMom90

So far I like the seat, but it didn’t come with the cup holders. How can I get a replacement?

So hard to get a good install!

Aml13

This seat is so comfortable for my daughter, but unfortunately it’s almost impossible to get a good install! After so much effort and time with both latch and seatbelt install I was able to get an okay install where it barely passed the 1” test. I’ve never had a car seat take this much time and effort to get a good install.

The car seat comes apart to easily

Mom1212

I don’t think this seat is supposed to come apart like mine does. The back comes off the bottom with the slightest amount of pressure. Not to mention finding replacement parts(seat cover/ harness) for it is nearly impossible. The website says it can’t find my model number. Like my specific seat never existed. Do not recommend.

Not great

JessieW

Hard to keep tight in the seat, hard to tighten and loosen to get child in and out, and the buttons are hard for my child to unlock by themself.

Read reviews before purchasing.

Sammie1990

Worst car seat ever. Horrible install. Wish I had read reviews. I have an Explorer and could not install this seat. I watched videos, had a car seat expert try and no luck. I was beyond frustrated. It also feels flimsy. I’ve owned several brands including graco but this seat was the worst.

Nice seat needs a little bit of help

Darci M

The slot for the seatbelt to go through is too tall. So when you are using the seatbelt to secure the seat, it’s next to impossible to get it very tight. I wish the straps had something in them to prevent the actually seatbelt click from falling and going under toddlers butf every single time.

Easy to use, difficult to install.

Louann

It’s easy to get child in and out of this seat, but it’s very difficult to tighten it down enough when installing it.

not very comfortable

Cara K

Great for the price, my child has been complaining that it is very uncomfortable. Hoping he gets used to it, but doesn’t seem to have much padding in the seat.

Just okay

Bstmary

The only downside is I do not feel I can get this car seat as tight as others I have had in the past.

Not durable enough for toddlers

Keelee

I wish the material was more durable. I had britax car seats before I got these boosters and I should have just stuck with Britax. Their materials they use for their seats are a lot more durable and easier to clean.

Seat wiggles?

Janeska Renkas

Struggling to get the seat to sit still, with proper installation. Even asked for a second and third opinion, WITH the instruction book. Still wiggles quite a bit... slightly concerned.

Best Seat Ever

Bria S

So easy to put together. Super snug, safe, and also comfortable for my toddler. Would recommend this 10 out 10.

Very difficult to install & rocks. Not stable.

Louisa

Not as promoted. The description states that it is "Easy" and can easily be transferred from one car to another. The connectikns are almost impossible to do and the chair still rocks in place! I want to send it back.

Transition carseat

Licy

My daughter can get her arms out of the straps which means it’s different from the car seat harness, she liked it at first... that has now changed

Seat cover for base is a pain to remove

Sam3588

I gave this 3 stars for a very important reason. This is clearly for toddler use and above. Toddlers potty train. The base cover is a pain to remove. This should have been thought of when creating a cover for a seat that most likely would be seating a child who may have accidents for a period of time.

Amazing seat😍

LadyRadloff

I’ve been using this car seat since both of my older daughters were put in a forward facing (one is 6, one is 7 now and they still use it), and I have bought several. My son will transition to this one after he outgrows the one he’s in. We’ve had to replace only due to accidents, and this thing kept my baby girl safe. Install is absolutely a breeze, as well as cleaning it when car sick days are happening. I do wish I could buy an extra cover or bottom piece with a cover even for those days. All in all, best 5 point booster I’ve ever had. Wish I had one with my oldest!

Great Seat

Tom69

I bought my 1st seat when it 1st came to the market for my son almost 8 years ago. We ended up buy 3 of them for each car. My sister got in an accident shortly after(son wasn't in the seat) but the 1st responders and everyone on sense said that they were amazed with how well this seat held up and didnt move an INCH. Used for my almost 9 year until he now is in only a booster. We purchased one for my second child once she could forward face in my husbands small car fits like a glove, small base love it. Now my 4 year old is out grown her seat in my car Graco Slimfit (dont like how hard it is for her to get in and out of without needing help) so naturally i purchase this seat know how much i loved and how easy it is to install clean and such. recommend this seat to all my family and friends best purchase and great seat

Horrible to install

TwinDad

Great product for transitioning between cars as it is very lightweight. However, the installation is a safety hazard at best. No matter how many times I read the instructions or watched videos on YouTube, I could not get this product to secure appropriately without sliding all over the seat. After a little more research, it sound like there are several others encountering the same issue.

Awesome product, but..

alohatown

My husband and I bought two of these car seats. Our son loves it because it’s comfortable, easy-access cup holders for him, super roomy for him, and it’s super lightweight. My only problem is that the car seat does not fit in the middle of the back seat of my car (2021 Toyota Corolla). It’s way too loose no matter how much I tighten the anchors and seatbelt. It’s a big minus for me because I’ve gotten into accidents where I’ve been side swiped/t-boned and would prefer if my child were in the middle rather than closer to side impacts. My husband on the other hand has a Nissan Frontier truck and the seat fits perfectly snug in the middle. So I just have them behind my passenger seat, where it fits much better and I know at this point it would be safer there since it fits better than the middle. Other than that, we love the car seats; easy to assemble, adjust, etc. I only rated it a 4 because I feel it would be safer if I kept the seat in the middle rather than the sides. Just keep in mind if you have a preference of keeping your child’s car seat in the middle, it might not work out depending on what you drive.

Disappointed

MERT

I bought 2 of these seats after careful research, and being voted one of the best car seats by reviews, but my husband and I are very disappointed. We are very adamant about TIGHT car seats and we are unable to get it tightly secured in both of our vehicles (Silverado and Jeep Cherokee) with latch and tether. I am seeing other reviews that report the same and an considering returning...we are going to try one last time.

We love this seat

AshlieghRose

Last year I bought this for my older daughter and we absolutely love it it’s comfortable roomy and love the fact that she’ll have it till she is out of the car seat or booster completely. We took it to Arizona with us recently and put my younger daughter in it while my other daughter used a regular booster and she absolutely loved it so we switched her to the seat as well now both girls have it and I have a seat that will go with them till they no longer need them. Great seat very well-made!

Great features

Decadentsplash

I bought this for a back up car seat and instead use it daily. Loving the colors and style.

Great

JenR1

So easy to use and install. My daughter feels so grown up sitting in it. And she is more comfortable than in a car seat.

Child loves it

Evan174

Bought it 2 months ago and my daughter loves it. Cup holders are great for drinks and snacks

Safe, sturdy

Dani02

I was in a bad car wreck with my children a couple days ago, and this carseat kept my youngest in place, and didn't get damaged while we rolled in the car, it was also secured very tightly thanks to my husband. Safe to say we will be going with this brand again when we get a new carseat.

Love the slim design

Kaybelle

I got this as a replacement after an accident and wish I'd had it sooner. It works for both my 3 & 5 yr old and it fits in the very tight 3rd row of a Tiguan. When both are installed in the 2nd row an adult can also sit comfortably due to the slim design. Graco has served me well with strollers & I would recommend this to anyone needing a slimmer carseat in a Tiguan.

Great features love it

ShawNee B

Lost the seatbelt straps moving because it had to be washed and now I can’t find the car seat anywhere my son has the green one like this n it sure what straps to buy or if they would be compatible since you all don’t carry it anymore.

Only thing i dont care for

Mommy85

I have used graco products for both my kiddos. I love how far car seats have come with more convenient features. I have been happy with everything graco i have bought with a small exception of this one and the cup holders not staying in and now we dont have any. I dont understand this feature since my child has been the one to pull them out herself.

Love this car seat!

Kristin17

I love this car seat! I bought 2 of them for each car! My daughter loves it also! The cup holders on the sides are nice plus she can get in and out of it by her self! Grows with your child for many years!

Love Graco!

RobinM

We love Graco products! It’s durable for our 5 year old! Great design and comfortable! Installing is easy! The straps are comfortable for a growing kiddo! And its versatility makes it perfect for a grow with me seat! Would recommend!

Best forward facing seat that’s budget friendly.

cassandrapreviews_4385

We got this seat when we were expecting our second. Our first was already forward facing and it didn’t make sense to buy another $300 car seat for the baby when we could just upgrade older sister to a strictly forward facing seat. This seat has been great and lightweight especially when having to put it in other peoples cars.

Great for car..

cindyrella2001_1169

Easy to clean perfect for baby and now toddler. Easy to adjust.. quick installation.. baby seems comfortable.. easy to adjust and for all levels..

Comfortable grow with me seat

jenniferp1167_4285

Great addition. So happy this seat will grow with my little one and we won’t have to purchase him any additional seats. He seems very content in his new “big boy” chair . Even falls asleep in it at times. I installed this by myself in about 15 min not even. Would recommend.

Booster seat

Anonymous

Love this booster seat for my smaller than average 4 year old. I love that this booster is transitional because he still needs that extra support since he doesn’t weigh enough yet. My only complaint is getting it tight enough against the seat during install.

Unsafe seat! Do not buy!

Jay Q

This seat is unsafe. I'm a police officer certified in installing car seats and have installed hundreds. I bought this for my 3.5 year old to put in our new car. Installed the latches for the latch system and the top tether. Cranked everything as tight as it will go using my body weight and this seat still slides over the place. The system is not secure at all and frankly the amount this seat moves around it should be pulled off the shelves for safety.

Don't buy it!

Faith28

Bought for my four year old little boy tonight and tried for almost 30 minutes to install with my husbands help. After not getting it tight enough against the seat of my 2023 Nissan Rogue my husband and I decided to come to Google to see if we were installing it wrong.. needless to say we should have did that before buying and took the time to read the reviews. The seat went right back in the box and will be returned tomorrow morning for a different brand.

Missing cup holders

Monica S

Purchased the car seat directly through the Graco website and the car seat did not come with cup holders which is extremely inconvenient. Also very hard to open the seatbelt clip.

It’s a nice car seat but parts missing

Court22222

I bought 2 of theses car seat when we did the target trade it but I didn’t open it until 5 months later because I didn’t need it until then. However when opening the car seat one of the car seat was missing the cup holder when reaching out to the customer service they keep telling me that they are there and to put them out and turn them. However I had two car seat I knew what to do….. and still to this day I don’t have cup holders for this car seat!!!!!!

Anchors

Kiah181

In some cars you can not tighten the car seat well the seat belt gets bunched up and you cant pull it any more and the car seat still wiggles.

Great!

Elbe

Great seat. Light weight, durable, and easy to use.

Love it

Else

The seat is very easy to install, slim enough to still allow two grown-ups to sit in the back of a small car next to it, easy to clean if messy.

Safe yet simple! We love it!

TJ Bossa

Very easy to make adjustments for the various age/size options. We love it! The daughter loves it! And, thanks to the nice neutral color the baby boy will have no choice but to love it as long as it hasn’t expired by the time he needs it. Outstanding product design!

Gracie Tranzitions

Denise N

While we have loved this seat for the past few weeks we’ve discovered that it seems to cause our daughter some neck pain if/when she falls asleep while in it. Her neck doesn’t slump as much but she now wakes up in pain. We’re not sure what about the seat is causing this issue but we’re searching for a new seat now.

Great features!

Lezajo

Love it and for the price it’s very worth it! My 4 year seems to like it. Only reason I give it 4 stars is because I wish it had more variety of colors

My husband and I purchased this a little over a month ago, and what an amazing seat! Our 6 year old loves it. And get this, our 2 year old opts to sit in this seat whenever or 6 year old is not with me because they have 2 different car seats. So now we need to get our 2 year old one like our 6 year old! Haha! This seat locks in perfectly, holds drinks tightly, and most importantly keeps my child protected for emergency stops.

He likes it!! He really really likes it!

Maxmom

So, I purchased this car seat for travel purposes and we have not been disappointed. It’s lightweight and extremely easy to install. Safety is a major issue for me and after doing some diligent research. I found this to have all the features that I was looking for. My three year old is comfortable and relaxed while in this seat. Great overall product. We are all quite happy. Thanks Graco Signed, Happy mommy :)

Cheap garbage latch system buckles

Dan 85

To adjust the buckles for the latch system usually takes about 45 minutes. As they get tight they jam because the seat edge that they must stretch over is too tight a curve and wrinkles the belts. Absolutely horrific buckle usage.

Poor quality parts

Kdm1218

The plastic housing where latch straps pull through is warped. Our seat is a little over a year old and has moved out of this vehicle 2-3 times ever. It is the secondary car and backup seat. The affected area is a cheap thin piece of plastic where you have to crank up on it to get the latch straps tight enough for install, and then it’s almost impossible to get them loose again because of this warping. Of course I found this just a couple months after the one year (seriously?!) warranty expires. May not buy graco again if we ever need a different seat thanks to this poor experience with cheap quality components.

Perfect

christielea

My daughter was not quite ready for the booster when my son was outgrowing the infant bucket car seat, so this was the perfect solution! Same graco quality as always. The buckle is a little different though, which we are still getting used to.

My Son’s #1 Car seat by far

MalT

Absolutely Love this seat!! My son is 5 and is sooo comfortable in this seat, his head never flops around when he’s asleep and he never wakes up complaining about neck or back pain like he has with others. It secures extremely well in our cars, we love it so much we bought 3! One for mom, dad and grandma!

grace is the way to go

davenaj1_9366

of course i had to purchase two because i have twins.. the assembly was easy as popping it together the installation was just as easy as the assembly. storage will be easy if we ever need it they have great effectiveness and get the job done especially for two 5 year olds the durability is amazing when you have a rough and tough kid!

Love this car seat

krcooper

The photo attached is older but I’ve had this car seat for years now and I love it. My son grows so quickly so that fact I will use this car seat till he is don’t with boosters included is great! Has two cup holders, head protection adjustment. Recommend this to any moms on a budget because it’s well priced but if you user your BuyBuyBaby coupon it’s even cheaper. Highly recommend!

Cannot tightly secure car seat

Unhappy Grandpa

The slots for the tether straps and / or vehicle seat belt are too tall. As such, it is impossible to tightly secure the car seat to the vehicle. In addition, the written instructions are nearly useless. I will be returning the product.

Can't get a tight fit -other CPSTs have this issue

AAAWalk

I spent hours and hours trying to get this carseat tight into my car. It had amazing reviews on Amazon and at Target, and I got it on sale for $75, so I was excited! I have asked Carseat specialists for help as well, and we just couldn't get it tight enough with the anchors or the seatbelt, while the seat sat straight up. We've tried moving the angle of seat in the car, putting weight on the carseat, having multiple people install it, etc. We finally got it tight enough one time, but it was crooked (it was on the seatbelt installation, because my kiddo just hit 45 pounds, which is when it can't be installed via anchors anymore). I am very disappointed and past the return period, unfortunately.

Terrible and disappointing product

Poppy0919

Horrible. To begin, the installation instructions are terrible. They are confusing and lack clarity. There were items in the box that were not identified in the manual. Construction seems OK, however, some of strap clips easily slipped through which raised safety concerns with me. Needless to say, it's being returned.

Not sure if I will keep disappointed in features

So just bought this a few weeks ago and have mixed reviews. Let me say I love Graco and have a previous car seat that I am using for baby. The extend to fit platinum with ratchet EZ tight latch system. Why CANT ALL YOUR CAR SEATS OFFER THIS GRACO??? The current latch system is hard to connect.l, a closed latch and also Very difficult to get the strap to tighten which is why I may not keep this as we take the seats in and out of the car a lot. To grab the latch to unhook is a devil. Ugh. Wish it had the latch it with at least a button release. Also the middle buckle strap is tight on the crotch. Moved it as far forward as it will go. Grandson is on the small side so I can only image if your child is chunky…the seat pad is thin. my advice is look in an actual store and place your child in it before purchase!!! Look also at ease of installing in and out of car.

Did not tighten and did not fit safely

My husband and I bought this car seat for our twins. He spent three hours trying to install the seats, and they were unsafe and did not fit properly. Specifically, they wouldn’t tighten so if an accident were to happen, they would not be safe. Very disappointed with this product. We contacted the store to see if we could exchange the seats, and the store said that they were final sale like all car seats.

Missing Part

My daughter loves her new seat, but the chair never came with cup holders. Can you please direct me to the proper cup holders that will fit this style?

Will not tighten down

Jeff O

After multiple attempts by me and my son-in-law who has plenty of experience as a firefighter/paramedic installing car seats for new parents, I took this seat right back to the store. Way too much play in the "Latch" straps, and then we had to use pliers to depress the white releases. The rear tether was pretty much useless, it just hung there after being tightened all the way down. I would like to suggest a "Vehicle Compatibility Chart". If they can do it for wiper blades and mud flaps, I'm sure you could do it for car seats before dropping $$$ on something that doesn't work as intended for safety. And overall, it just felt cheap.

Impossible to install correctly

Pat N

This seat is impossible to secure tightly using a lap/shoulder belt. I’ve had two of them. The first one took multiple attempts and frustration and feats of strength to install. Got a second one and quickly gave up. These seats are too cheap and light. They have no cord clip to hold the belt tight against the seat so the seat moves too much. Will not let my child ride in this.

I love this car seat for my suv. I have a Ford Escape which is very compact suv so it fits great and my daughter loves it

Easy to put together

Easy, easy, easy, to put together!! The instructions are clear. The reviews on safety are great. The price is great!!

Good, lightweight seat and daughter loves the color! It was a bit tough to install tight enough with latches, so just be aware you might need a bit of muscle. Otherwise no complaints - this seat is actually a replacement of the exact same seat after a car accident so we definitely like it enough to repurchase!

Very Satisfied

Bought two for our 2 1/2-year old. Easy installation and a long-term option as she grows. Loves her “big girl car seat”.

It’s hard to get it to sit straight when it’s buckled in to the car, it wants to lean one way- (we’re still using the 5 point) I’m a car seat tech and I still can’t get it to not sit on an angle once the seat belt is buckled

great seat. very tricky install

Allisonrhan

Love the size and weight of the seat, taking one star off because its awful to install. I got this seat because I wanted to have a lightweight seat for my son in case of travel. However, I worry about my ability to quickly install it into a different car at a vacation destination. I haven't found anything on the market as affordable or lightweight so I decided to keep it, but the difficulty of install is really a drag. I search high and low for tips and tricks to make it easier but overall I haven't found a quick or easy way ot manage the install.

Great 3 in 1 Car seat

Anonymous

Strong and sturdy thus far! We have had no complaints and our daughter is comfortable in the carseat.

Wide, easy buckles, not as easy to remove

P Kehoe

I gave it 3 stars because I feel it is average. My husband thinks it is more difficult to take out/put in the car. The larger size is wonderful for a 3.5 year old. The cup holders are not deep enough.

Conveniente y seguro

yoannyc

Es muy conveniente al poderlo usar de diferentes maneras. Para niños desde 22 lb y hasta 100 lb. Muy seguro para tener pas mental. Fácil de instalar y con mucha calidad.

Saved my sons life

ZOEMP

This car seat is basic yet safe! We were in a car accident where we rolled twice. My son had not a scratch or bruise. We love how simple it is to use and how slim it is. The cup holders come off easily and it does slide a little even after we strap it in (which is why I gave it four stars). But overall it’s great and it saved my son. Also love how light it is esp when we travel in the airport.

Impossible to get installed

Lucasmama2022

Bought this as an extra seat for my husband's car as well as for some upcoming flights. Liked the price point and how lightweight it is. It was impossible to get the seat installed. I tried different spots in husband's car as well as both latch and seatbelt installs. It moved well over an inch when I moved it. I have a Graco E2F DLX 4ever seat in my truck and love it so I was hopeful I'd love this one too. I'll be returning this seat.

Sarah0812

I bought this for my daughter over a year ago and I love every part of it, it's easy to disassemble and clean, easy installation and my daughter is actually comfortable in it! I'm confident that this will keep my daughter safe should anything happen at any stage that she'll be using this, she's still in the harness stage right now.

Missing drink cup holders

Missing Cup Holders

Easy to use and install but for some reason, neither of the two I purchased came with the cup holders. Pretty frustrating since my daughter is constantly trying to use them and spiller her drinks!!!

Grace Car Seat

GirlMom22

I personally do not care for this car seat. It’s solar impossible to get it strapped in tightly. I just feel like it’s too loose and moves around way more than it should. Just doesn’t feel very safe to me.

Safety Concern

Anonymous

We have 2 of these car seats, as though we love how light weight, easy they are to put together. Installing them into a vehicle without them being loose is a pain!! & it seems as though they always move. However we kept them to use for plane travel, since we are military and move around often we knew these would be lightweight and best for travel!! The only reason I gave them a low rating because installing them is negative for me!! (For safety reasons!)

Get the Nautilus 2.0 if you can

SullyR

We got one of these and one Nautilus 2.0, if your car has removable headrests, choose the Nautilus 2.0, higher limits, easier install, sleeker design If you want to fit three in a row or have no removable headrests, get the Tranzitions, the install is a fight, it has lower limits in booster mode, it’s skinnier and loses cupholder space, and I always gotta remind my kiddo to scoot her butt all the way back. This obviously isn’t my favorite seat, but it’s largest sway points are how narrow it is, how cozy my kid is in it, and how it’s still got more harness clicks to go even tho she’s 45.5in (tall kid, not even 5 yet). The nautilus 2.0 also has the same amount of harness clicks left on it, so no difference there.

Poor Design

SLS71

Let me start off by saying, this is not my first car seat rodeo. I have 5 children and 1 grandchild. I have used Graco products forever!! From travel systems to turbo boosters, all Graco. Pack and plays, high chairs, swings, you name it, it was Graco. I absolutely LOVE their products. However…the Tranzitions is not in this category. I could not get the tight install in my 2022 Mazda CX9 or 2024 Jeep Wrangler. The plastic shell is so slippery it just slid everywhere. Going back to the tried and true Nautilus!!

Cup holders

Tee H

My cup holders were missing from the car seat and I didn’t realize it until I installed it.

Keeping the grandson safe

Amy De

This is easy to install and excited for my grandson to grow with it

Sammie24444444444

Never sits straight to the car seat. and the UAS belt crinkles when tightening. Installing is awful

Love it.

B Lauren

Third time I’ve purchased this car seat, have three grandchildren. Absolutely love the simple design and ease of adjustment for strap height and conversion to booster. Only wish the anchor strap was easier to tighten.

Graco All the way!!

Anonymous

My husband I just recently purchased 2 car seats for our 5year and 3year old! They are the best! So cozy and comfy, they feel really secure, and easy to put together! We love Graco and the quality they provide and at an affordable price!

CHEAP FABRIC!!

zgk12

After the third use, I washed the pads in the washing machine. Because some stains couldn't come off, I wipe it down, and it just peeled off! I was shocked how cheap the fabric was...

Not what we needed

Some reviewer

Wasn’t the seat that we needed so it never came out of the box. The return process was a bit cumbersome and I still haven't received my refund even though the tracking shows return was received nearly 2 weeks ago.

Great for travel - especially airplanes

KathrynT

This seat was a life saver on a long haul flight. My four year old was safe and comfortable and most importantly he stayed seated for the whole flight (minus potty and stretch breaks). Due to turbulence it could have been a dangerous flight for him but he was not bothered at all and he was safely buckled. The seat is narrow enough to fit in a standard economy airplane seat without crowding passengers on either side. The seat is light enough to carry down the plane aisle with ease. We previously tried flying with another 4 in 1 sest and it was really awkward to carry. This seat was easy to install and remove from the rental car within minutes. We felt our child was safe for the full flight and rental car experience.

Nice car sear

Mel41

Purchases at my local target, once I arrived home took out box to set up and cup holders are missing. I checked to see if any of the local targets had in stock to exchange and were all out. Do I have to purchase the cup holders now?

Good seat

Kurt

Great seat, lots of leg room! Would buy again for sure.

Terrible straps

Royden

I can't for the life of me get these seats tightened properly to the car' seat. I don't feel that my children are safe in them.

Not safe

Mommabear73849

My last post stated it moved more than 1” and it wasn’t approved because of “legal reasons”

Does not tighten all the way!

Emily1016

I bought this and no matter how much I try or other people that are a lot stronger than I am, we can’t get this thing tightened up completely. It’s not a good car seat and I don’t recommend. It is comfy for my daughter, it just isn’t safe.

So disappointed

Patri

Bought this carseat about two weeks ago and i was really excited about it but the latches don't seem to tighten using all the anchors and seatbelt. All the videos ive watched having multiple people help on trying to tighten the seat not to move so loosely. Im so disappointed and will have to return.

Great value.

Papa reigns supreme

The seat works well. Now my two-year-old grandson can get in by himself as the seat was installed forward facing. The fact that the cup holders don't get in the way is a plus. I had a professional install it on his recommendation to purchase this particular seat. It should install on most vehicles. Look out for the coupon from Graco. They beat everyone's price.

Easy Adjustments

ElizaJ

Great car seat. Easy to use and adjust the size. We have this for both of our toddlers, and it has been great so far (one we have had for about 2 years, the other we just purchased).

Very wobbly once installed :(

Lindsey N

Not very secure at all! Very wobbly--go buy a britax and get some peace of mind knowing its MUCH more secure!

Dig it

Daveington

Easy assembly and seems very safe and secure. Good price point.

rate what? I never got anything

AJAF

I am unsure why you keep asking my optimum in this car seat that you all cancelled yourselves with no explanation. Please stop sending me surveys. You are a great company normally but you sure dropped the ball big time with me. I am NOT HAPPY

Carseat review

Dezi9911

Both my daughters have one my oldest uses the seat belt and my youngest uses the five point harness and they both love the carseat

Works perfect!

Love this car seat! Comfortable, safe and cute! Great pick!

Green winner!

Mamá Feliz

My son loves his new carseat. The color is bright and fun. It's nice to not have such a bulky carseat and we're glad that it'll last for many years as he grows.

Child’s car seat.

Easy to assemble and install. Had I known that it was made in China, I wouldn’t have ordered it, because I prefer American made.

  • Recommendation for three-across in minivan with Graco Tranzitions

    I was looking to find a way to fit three kids across the 48 inch-wide back row of my minivan... With this narrow seat installed in the middle of the 3rd row, there remains 15 inches on either side. Plenty of space for two BubbleBum or mifold boosters... For $99.99 I got the narrow seat I needed and a 5-point harness that will last my four-year-old a few more years!

  • Graco Tranzitions as lightweight option for travel but hard to install

    We bought a cheaper Graco Tranzitions harnessed booster for our 3.5 year old for our last trip. It was super light so we put it in a backpack case and gate checked it... Install the seats when you get on the plane... The Tranzitions can be challenging to install in some vehicles.

  • Graco Tranzitions narrow but lacks padding and comfort

    The Tranzitions is narrow (17.5 inches) so it can work in some three across situations. However, it can be challenging to install... The padding is like a pillow and lacks support, with an instant hard plastic feeling when pressure is applied. We suspect there will be pressure points.

  • Mixed opinions: cheap but hard to install and not very padded

    It's cheap and lightweight, which is good for travel, but it's a pain to install tightly. The cover is thin and the headrest is hard plastic. I'd say yay for budget/travel, nay if you want plush comfort.
