Pain to use

Comment:
This is used exclusively in the second car. Much more difficult to tighten strap securely than the britax model. Since this adjustment is necessary everytime we strap our child into the seat it has become a real pain. Personally I think CR gave this higher scores because of the cost of the seat.
How long have you owned it:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
Canada has independent car seat certification and US-approval is not accepted for sale or installation. The Scenera is sold here under another Dorel brand name but appears to be similar. The Canada version includes the infant insert, a carrying bag, and a cupholder. It is attractive and has side-impact capability. Adjustment and set up are easy and the instructions are clear. If you need more help, check YouTube.

Comment:
We have two of these, one in my car and one in my husband's. They are sturdy and the harness straps are nice and easy to adjust. The problem is that they are a little tricky to install...and threading the latch belts for the initial installation was not intuitive. In my car I have to use a seat belt for the middle seat installation...it is difficult to get the seat in there nice and tight...but it could just be my car. Overall, these seats do not have a lot of cushion but that is okay...I don't like a lot of padding interfering with the safety of the seat.
