    Pros

    • Excellent crash protection with load leg
    • Installation with LATCH is excellent
    • Push-on LATCH connectors
    • Lightweight carrier

    Cons

    • More difficult to secure with LATCH because adjuster moves into belt path, preventing tightening
    • Handle position restrictions in the vehicle

    CR's Take

    An excellent overall performer balancing crash protection, ease-of-use and vehicle fit. The addition of a load leg on this seat makes it a top performer in our crash protection tests.

    Detailed Test Results

    Consumer Reports’ car seat crash test, developed in 2014, provides comparative performance information on which car seats could provide an additional margin of safety.  All child seats sold in the United States are required to meet government safety standards, and Consumer Reports’ tests are not designed to test compliance with those standards.  Rather, we evaluate the seats’ performance under conditions designed by our experts to simulate certain crash scenarios, and rate them on a scale ranging from “basic” to “best.”  The test conditions have been carefully designed to simulate the interior environment and forces encountered during a crash in contemporary vehicles.
