| I have made three outstanding purchases for my baby and this is one of them! The first and only car seat I had purchased for my baby was the Peg Perego car seat which we loved!!! It rated high in safety and was easy to use and very durable! I found myself disappointed that they did not make convertible seats and I was unsure of whether the next seat we would like as much as the Perego. But this is a GREAT carseat! My son loves it. He used to cry when we would first put him in his car seats, this one he has not fussed once in! It sits fairly high so if you have a very compact car, you may want to review the measurements. I have an Accord and it fits, but snuggly. It is plush, soft, classy looking. It is very sturdy and nothing about this seat is cheap. I have it rear facing at the moment, but in a month or two it will be turned forward facing. The seats are very soft and comfortable for the baby. I wish my car's seats were this comfortable. There is not one regret yet buying this seat!! I would recommend it 100%. |
Good seat for a larger car

After doing a lot of research on different car seats, I chose to get the Recaro Signo G2 for our five month old. Due to our work schedules, we need two car seats for my husband's and my cars. I chose to get the Recaro first because of the additional safety features, and I wanted to see if it fit in both cars. I knew it would fit into my husband's four door 2009 Chevy Silverado truck, and it did. It is a wonderful car seat for his truck, and we can actually fit two adults sitting on either side with a center rear-facing installation. I love everything about it.
Unfortunately, we did not have as much luck fitting it into my 2007 four door Honda Civic. While it fit perfectly into my car, it turned out to be too tall with a proper center rear-facing installation. For one, it was easy to bump the baby's head on the ceiling of the car. More importantly, it partially obstructed my view in my rear view mirror. (I am 5'7" and my husband is 6'2", and both of us had the same problem). While I could 'mostly' see out of my rear window with the car seat, I do not find any obstruction an option with my baby in the car. As a result, I chose to get a Sunshine Kids Radian 65 as it is better suited for my smaller car. |

The cover is like velvet. The SIP headrest keeps my 6-month-old's head from flopping side-to-side when he sleeps. The harness adjustment process takes maybe 1 or 2 minutes, tops; it's so easy that I was convinced that I'd missed a step and reread the instructions!
If you have a small, 2-door car (Sunfire) like I do, I would reconsider this car seat. The only con, for me, is the size: I cannot fit him into it without one of us bumping a window, the seat, etc. It creates a blindspot on my right if I install it behind the passenger seat, and obstructs the view over my shoulder in the center. |
Excelent Car seat

| We have it for almost three weeks now and our baby loves it, so easy to install that it's almost imposible that you can do it wrong. We really recomend it. |

| I had tried other car seat, some a lot more expensive. But my baby was never very comfortable in those other ones. He would cry after twenty or thirty minutes in the car. Now I can drive for two or three hours before I have to stop. |
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!

| First off this seat looks so comfortable I wish I could sit in it! My son easily falls asleep in it. Great detailed installation instruction manual. Fits great maybe alittle big but still great in our VW Rabbit 2006. I love the fact that a seat company that manufacturers racing seats has made my baby's car seat! I don't think a safer car seat is out there! And trust me I did my research!!! Who would be a better car seat maker than one that perfects racing seats who crash daily. I love this seat, I love this company and I've never heard one negative crash test! |

I bought this seat blindly (could not find it near me to test it) solely based on reviews of others and my inspection of other car seats. When doing the feel test with most car seats (including Britax)they all felt cheap, plastic'ky', and uncomfortable. This one does not! Wow!! This seat is so sturdy! The comfort level of it is the best out there too. My baby still hates being in car seats (he just hates any type of confinement), but I have peace of mind that my precious cargo is riding in the highest of safety and luxury.
Also, I have a 2006 Nissan Murano and have absolutely no problems getting him in and out of the seat. In fact, the other day I received high praise from my wife for putting our 13 month old in the seat while he was dead asleep without waking him. We have him front facing on the passenger-back seat side. He weighs 21.5 pounds.
Could not be happier with this purchase! Thank you Recaro... |
Very nice car seat

I really like this seat. I have only used it for three weeks so far, but it is very sturdy and eaasy to install. I installed it in a Dodge Nitro. The only problem I have is that the seat is very high, and I have to manuver to put my son on the seat without hitting his head with the frame of the door. I don't think it is a problem with the seat per se, but you may have some trouble with it, depending on the type of car you drive. The feature I like the most is the 'infinity head rest'. You can adjust it very easily by turning the knob as your kid grows up.
The package was delivered on time and in perfect condition. |
Great

| We got this seat for our 2 month old and it works great! it looks so comfy with all the padding. It was a little hard to install for us because we live in japan and the cars don't have all the saftey latches like the US ones have and you can't read the car instructions because its in japanese but we eventually figured it out and it works great. The back is high so when its in the rear facing way in the begging of life its really hard to reach back and touch your baby, put the pacifier in her mouth, etc. if its in the middle but we make it work because to use it is soo much safer than the graco one we did have. We also love that this works for MANY ages and years and positions so we don't have to keep buying car seats if we knew this was good for as little as 5 lbs. we would have only bought this one to start with. The pink color is pretty and people (other mothers) love it and the material is soo soft. when you read the directions it does say to cover the car seat while not in use because it will get hot from the sun and they are not lieing! make sure you cover it. we just use a simple receiving blanket we keep in the car to throw it over to block the sun from heating up the parts she touches and it works. |
