First off, installation is a nightmare. The LATCH straps route in a way that makes tightening nearly impossible. Even when the indicators are fully green, I can move the base 4 inches side to side. The rotation button is so stiff, I had to use two hands. And the seat itself just feels cheap and wobbly.

The Safety 1st is about $150 cheaper, but reviews say the rotation is really stiff and the seat feels flimsy. I tested the Evenflo in store and it turns like butter. A friend had the Safety 1st and returned it because the button hurt her fingers. I think I'll spend the extra for peace of mind, but if budget is tight, the Safety 1st does the job - just be prepared for a workout each time you turn it.","subreddit":"Buyingforbaby"},{"type":"thread","title":"360 Car Seat - Safety 1st Turn and Go installation issues","ref_id":"r_e_3","thread":{"url":"https://www.reddit.com/r/CPST/comments/1fmcdd7/360_car_seat/","title":"360 Car Seat - Safety 1st Turn and Go installation issues","subreddit":"CPST"},"excerpt":"I'm a CPST and I've installed dozens of seats. The Safety 1st Turn and Go is one of the most frustrating. The base is triangular and inherently unstable; no matter how tight you pull the LATCH, you'll get excessive movement. The rotation mechanism adds more wobble. It passes federal standards, but the real-world stability is poor. I can't recommend it when there are safer rotating options like the Evenflo Revolve360 or Graco Turn2Me.","subreddit":"CPST"},{"type":"thread","title":"Rotating convertible car seat - Safety 1st vs Graco vs Evenflo","ref_id":"r_e_4","thread":{"url":"https://www.reddit.com/r/Parents/comments/1etsblu/rotating_convertible_car_seat/","title":"Rotating convertible car seat - Safety 1st vs Graco vs Evenflo","subreddit":"Parents"},"excerpt":"We have the Safety 1st Turn and Go. Positives: The magnetic chest clip is genius, and my toddler can actually buckle himself. The rotation is handy, but it's NOT a one-hand operation. The button is way too stiff. A friend has the Graco Turn2Me and the lever is much easier. If I could go back, I'd probably get the Evenflo or Graco. The Safety 1st does work, but the little frustrations add up daily.
