ease of use is very poor
By jt from san antonio on 8/2/2009
Pros:
Still waiting for some
Cons:
Straps base handle
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

my wife and i hated this seat. we had high hopes for combi but were very disappointed. the base was difficult to strap into the vehicle, and the seat took all your strength to release it from the base. i can say more but i think you have the point -
