Excellent Car seat with a capacity of 50lb RF
Let me list the main features of the car seat to begin with. 1.It can accommodate Rear-facing 4-50 lbs., up to 45″ tall and Forward-facing 22-65 lbs., up to 49″ in height. 2. Headset can be adjusted to 10-position 3. Car seat can be reclined to 6 positions 2 for Rear Facing and 3 for Forward Facing. 4. There is a new feature in the car seat which is 4-position extension panel which provides up to 5” of extra legroom. 5. 2 Cup holders. 6. 10 years lifespan from the date of manufacturer. All of know that the Rear facing is always better till the times the child can sit we should make them sit RF. So 50 lbs of weight limit is really awesome and for tall kids the extension panel works out perfect. That's really a cool feature. Car seat can be used from a newborn baby to an older child weighing 65 lbs. I wish it also had a booster seat conversion like Graco forever. My toddler is 18 months so I removed the newborn cushions. Recline option works v smoothly. There is an easy indication on which recline option to be chosen as the weight and age of the child. I used the vehicle seat belts to install the car seat and it was pretty simple. Not too heavy. Its one of the best car seats I have got and would definitely recommend.

Harness Clip
The best thing of this item is harness. It has a new type of locking system which is so easy to connect the seat belt to the car seat. The old system is too tough to connect to the car. But this new type is very easy. Picture attached

    Great carseat!
    Would recommend this carseat. My daughyer hated her infant carseat and she gets into this one with ease and no fight. Very easy to install and strap her in so we can get moving quickly.

    Best car seat ever
    I love the foot extender! It makes it so easy for my son to be rear facing for as long as he needs to be and be comfortable. It is adjustable so easily with no fuss with the straps when they need to be moved up by just gripping the handle and pulling up until the right height is reached. I also really like the latch and how it makes it easy to install. The most important part about this cart seat is that it is the only car seat I have found that allows you to safely keep your child rear facing up to 50lb, all other car seats I looked at were only up to 40lb. I have a car seat for my son for both my husband and my car and I just bought one for my daughter and plan to get another for the other car also. These car seats are my top choice seats and the only ones that I own

    Love it, so far!
    The extended leg is perfect until we can turn forward. When that time comes we can adjust the tilt and the height.The square cup holders have been no issue for round cups. My favorite part are the small inserts on either side to hold the metal locking teeth out of the way. Makes for easy and fast in and out of car. Installation was a couple snaps, literally! Pricey, but safety and ease are worth it!

    We have confidence in this Graco car seat
    We have confidence in this backward/forward-facing Extend2Fit Graco car seat. We watched a couple YouTubes to get it set up. It's very sturdy and we expect it to last for years to come.

    Pretty much the best!
    I LOVE this seat. I haven't found anything yet that I don't like and we've been using it for a few months. The no-rethread harness is the biggest selling point. I love that I was able to turn it from rear facing for my 6 month old to forward facing for my 6 year old nephew when needed. It feels very sturdy and safe and the LATCH system makes it easy to install (button release is amazing!). Highly recommend this seat to anyone!

    Convertible car seat save money
    Bought this car seat for my 1 year old baby upgrade from infant car seat to convertible car seat and my son likes it at least now he can look troughs the window because this car seat a bit higher than the old one, with extra cup holders makes easier for him to get his own bottle water if he get thirsty and he can use this car seat till he face facing as it convertible.

    I definitely recommend!
    We were in a car accident recently and thankfully Graco kept our little one unharmed! We had to replace our sons car seat so we of course went with another Graco product! I chose this car seat since it had great reviews and the fact that our baby can grow and still use it (rear facing and forward facing option). He seems to be very comfortable, yet secure in it. Thanks Graco!

    Quality and comfort
    It's a great car seat due to the fact that it's convertible. Also, it last up (4 yrs old) I believe or up-to 50 lbs, the description will tell you. Very comfortable. My child can play with his toys not feeling like he is locked up because the straps are too short in other models.

    Cute and secure, but is very big and bulky
    I love how comfy it is and secure but its really hard to get the seat belt through the back end of the car seat, I wish they wouldve made the opening a little wider so I can secure it without the hassle of hurting my hand.

    Awesome car seat for extended rear facing!
    This car seat is awesome for extended rearfacing! My daughter is almost 3 years old and downs even have to bend her legs (she is somewhere between 30-35 inches tall) and she does not even have the extender completely extended. The only thing that I do not like about it is when forward facing, you cannot use the strap covers. Still an awesome car seat!! Fits well in my Toyota Camry and my husbands Chevy Tahoe.

    Perfect for my son!
    This is the only convertible seat I could find within my budget that allows my son to continue sitting rear-facing. He still has a few weeks before he turns 2, and he is between 35-40 lbs, but when he was measured at his 18-months wellness check he was 41 inches. The rear-facing limit for his previous seat, like most other seats I've seen, is 40 inches and 40 lbs, so I had to change it to forward facing. He sat that way until the Extend2Fit arrived, and while he was safe the entire time, I was uncomfortable with it because I knew he could be safer. I plan to keep him rear-facing now until he reaches the 50 lb limit for this seat. I also like the adjustable headrest because I don't have to tether the straps when they need to be moved. The recline feature prevents his head from bobbing around when he falls asleep. The extendable footrest gives his legs plenty of room. I am very pleased with this purchase!

    Love it
    It's perfect my son is 7 months and I can tell he will fit in this car seat for a long time! I love how it reclines because when he falls asleep I don't like for his head to flop around so the reclining feature is very useful for that. He looks so comfy and safe and the quality of materials is excellent

    Big and Safe!
    I have a 2 year old foster daughter that my husband and I adopted last week. She has been with us since she was 6 days old. Our first 2 car seats were Graco’s. My husband and I have been jockeying the same car seat between his truck and my car and decided to get another car seat so we could stop the time consuming task of switching back and forth. This car seat is BIG but safer than the other car seat we have. It does not fit in my husband’s 2 door extended cab trucks back seat. If you have a compact car or other people/kids riding with you measure the seat and your back seat. The head rest is tight against her ears. When she falls asleep in it the head rest keeps her head up straight. (I love that.) It has 2 cup holders. We use one for her sippy cup and the other for snacks or a small toy. I’ve got to be honest….I had a hard time figuring out how to lengthen the straps. The button is under the seat cover and a little hard to get to. The manual does describe how to do it but to me it was not clear. And another thing I don’t like is that it looks like the seat cover will be hard to remove to wash it. That’s important to me. But again the manual shows step by step instructions so it should not be too hard.

    Excellent Carseat! Very Easy to install
    I am in LOVE with this car seat! This has GOT to be the most convenient car seat that I have used. The name Extend2Fit certainly fits it! The seat feels very strong and sturdy. It feels durable. I also love that this seat fits in our cars well. This is a convertible car seat that features 2 cup holders, an extending foot rest AND an extending head rest. That was a surprise to me! The top extends so that you can use this seat as your baby grows. No more fussing with taking the straps in and out to adjust! You simply pull the bar at the top to adjust the height of the straps and headrest! Easy peasy! Also, the bottom of the seat has a leg rest that extends for added comfort for your little one to be rear facing for up to 2 years. This seat was super easy to install. We used the latch system and it installed much better than our other seat. It is also lighter than I expected. The base is awesome as it has indicators that you can see how far back your baby can recline. Another neat feature is the fuss free buckle pockets. It is so convenient that i can put the buckles in those pockets quickly. It makes it so much easier than messing around to find the buckles under her. There are 6 different reclining positions so you are sure to find one that makes you comfortable, and your baby as well! I love that this seat can be used rear facing from 4 to 50 pounds and forward facing from 22 to 65 pounds. This is sure to be the only seat you need for a long time!

    5+stars for superior comfort and safety
    I'm very excited to see the new technology Graco has built into this car seat. This technology fills a much needed void in safety which is a car seat capable of holding up to 50 pounds in a rear facing position and this does it well. As a nanny I have much experience in car seats and can say this car seat is also super easy to use and has new great features making it even safer. It's been proven the safest position for a baby/toddler in a car seat is rear facing up to age 2 or as long as the seat allows which is the problem. Most children are too large to fit in the seat in a rear facing position. this seat solves that problem with an extender for extra leg room. The extender is a hard plastic type platform for the legs to lie on. It easily slides with a push of a button from the bottom of the seat area and can be extended in increments up to 5 inches in length. This car seat is a convertible car seat which means it can go from infant to toddler to child. this seat can potentially be used for up to 10 years so it could possibly be the only car seat you will ever need making money sense. The seat allows for rear facing up to 50 pounds and forward facing 22-65 pounds with it's solid construction including a steel reinforced frame. Several great features are built into the seat such as a level indicator which clearly shows if the seat is properly level when it's installed. It can then be reclined in 6 positions. It also has 10 head rest positions as well along with 2 cupholders. My favorite feature though is the new harnass adjustment which allows the height of the harnass to raise or lower by simply squeezing a handle on the top of the seat. No more tedious rethreading from the back required! Stylish colors of gender neutral black with a subtle grey with teal accents adds to the beauty in design of this exceptional product.
