The Safety 1st Grow and Go All-in-One Slim Convertible Car Seat is a 3-in-1 car seat that transitions from rear-facing (5–40 lb, 19"–40") to forward-facing (30–65 lb, 34.4"–49") to belt-positioning booster (40–100 lb, 43.4"–52"). It features a QuickFit harness/headrest adjustment, a machine-washable seat pad, two dishwasher-safe cup holders, two removable infant pillows, and a 3-position recline, meeting federal side-impact standards.

The products were very good

SUSAN PASSMORE

The products were very good. More than I’d expected them to be. The color of the diaper bag is beautiful and I know my daughter in love will be happy with it.

Source Threads

  • Safety 1st Grow and Go praised for value but installation a pain

    I have this seat. For the price it’s great. My 2 year old fits well. However, the install is a total pain. It takes forever to get it tight and level. I dread moving it. But once it’s in, it’s fine.

  • Safety First car seat recommended as budget backup

    I have a Safety First (I think the Grow and Go) as our backup seat for grandma's car. It's fine, not as plush as our Chicco, but my kid doesn't seem to care. It was cheap and will last a long time.

  • Safety 1st swivel seat considered but price is main draw of the brand

    I was looking at the Safety 1st swivel seat but couldn't find many reviews. People say Safety 1st is decent for the price. We ended up with the Evenflo Revolve360 because it was on sale. But I know the non-swivel Safety 1st seats are popular because they're cheap.

  • Safety 1st Grow and Go appreciated for price but tricky to install

    We have the Safety 1st Grow and Go. It's affordable and I like that it will last through booster. But installation for rear-facing was so frustrating. We needed a pool noodle to get the right recline. Once we got it tight, it's been fine though. My son seems comfy.

  • Safety 1st Grow and Go may be outgrown too soon by taller kids

    I like the price of the Safety 1st Grow and Go, but I'm worried my tall kid will outgrow the harness height before she's ready for a booster. It's a good seat for the money, but if your kid is tall, maybe go for the Graco Extend2Fit instead.

  • Safety 1st seat passed crash but padding lacking for long trips

    We have a Safety 1st all-in-one for my 3 year old. It's fine day-to-day, but on road trips my daughter complains her butt hurts. Might need more padding. But for the price, I can't complain too much. It survived being rear-ended and kept her safe, so I trust it.
