- Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2025Very light weight, Baby absolutely loves the car seat, bought for my mother in laws car and we all love it. The latching is so easy. Cup holder is perfect!! We love the head support, and the padding. And of course you can’t beat the price!!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2025great value! bought 2 so we could put 1 in each car. it's easy to install and tether. it's big and comfy and feels strong and safe. my 1 yr old grandson is a chunky little guy and there's plenty of room for him to grow into it as he gets older.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2025My toddler screamed in his bucket seat for entire car rides even if they were only 10 mins long, so at about 6 months old I got him this seat bc he outgrew his baby one, and he LOVES car ride. We’ve taken it on 2 cross country road trips one 22 hr trip one 15 hr one and he was comfy the whole time. I’ll be getting this for the next child I have as well. It’s easy to clean and fits slim
- Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2025It's good. Rear facing it was ok but had to pull the strap attached to back of it to the bar under driver seat in order for it to not move forward in an accident. Only way to secure it. Deserves 3 but gave 4 cause he look more comfortable in it
- Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2025Easy to install, durable and easy to clean
- Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2025I really love this car seat, it has a nicely padded seat and is comfortable for my child, it was easy to set up and to clean if you have spills or accidents. I was very surprised for the price how nice this seat is, better than my other children's more expensive seats. I can fit this seat and two boosters in my backseat comfortably. No complaints.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2025I got it for my niece who I watch sometimes and needed a secondary seat for my car. It was a great price compared to others with good safety rating. My 10-month-old niece loved it so much that she cries now when she has to sit in the one in her mom's car that cost 3 times this one. this one has more room and helps her sit up a little more so she can see. she's still rear facing so that's the only feature I've used so far.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2025I really like the Safety 1st Guide Convertible Car Seat because it’s practical, safe, and comfortable. It fits easily into smaller cars without sacrificing security. I’m happy with the ease of installation and the fact that it grows with your child, from rear-facing to forward-facing. It also has a sleek design, solid side-impact protection, and a great price point, making it a fantastic value for families. I feel confident and at ease knowing my little one is safe and comfortable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Buena relación calidad precio
Creo que la relación calidad precio es buena, sin embargo me cuesta mucho instalar con el marcha/isofix, es algo complicado, para instalar con cinturón de seguridad es necesario comprar la “H” ya que no la incluye y se necesita, es cómoda y de buena calidad, la recomiendo para niños de percentil bajo ya que solo llega a 18kg a contramarcha
