Comparison of Safety 1st All-in-One to Evenflo Revolve360
I have the Evenflo 360 and the Safety 1st all in one (not the 360) and prefer the Evenflo by far. The Safety 1st is lighter so easier to move but the Evenflo is easier to get baby in and out of. My baby seems more comfortable in the Evenflo too. I know the Evenflo is more expensive, but there’s a reason people love it!

Safety 1st Grow and Go Slim recommended for compact fit and budget
I have a Safety 1st Grow and Go Slim in my small car (Corolla) and it fits great. It was a bit tough to install though, we used a rolled towel to get the right recline. For the price, I’m happy with it. It’s not as plush as the Graco Extend2Fit my sister has, but my kid doesn’t seem to mind.

Mixed experiences, happy with slim profile, installation tricky
I bought the Safety 1st grow and go slim for our Mazda3 and it’s perfect. Tight fit but works. However I will say it’s a BEAST to install correctly. We had to watch YouTube videos multiple times. Once it’s in it’s solid. Kiddo sometimes complains on long drives about the padding but overall it’s fine for the price.

Safety 1st Turn and Go 360 DLX - different model but brand feedback
I have the Safety 1st Turn and Go 360 DLX and it’s been good so far. But I looked at the slim one for my husband's car and it seems decent. Safety 1st in general is hit or miss but I think they’ve improved. The slim one is a good budget compact option.
