Try before you buy
I hate to say it - but this is the seat that has officially turned me into a Britax snob. The only car seats I had experience with prior to trying this one were the Graco baby bucket and the Britax Roundabout and Marathon. I had heard now and then the frightening statistic that so-and-so percentage of car seats are installed incorrectly and I couldn't understand how that could be - how hard is it to install a car seat properly? Turns out, it depends on the car seat.

We were recently visiting family back east and my nephew has this particular car seat - one in my father's car, one in my brother's car. One on occasion I was going to go somewhere with my dad and rather than go in our car or move our car seat to his car, we opted to use my nephew's seat for my son. However, it turned out the straps were on the lowest setting which was too low for either of the boys so I took the car seat out to adjust the straps and... quickly came to regret not simply moving our own car seat to my dad's car.

This seat is a royal pain in the behind to install properly. In theory, it goes in just like a Britax - clip the two LATCH hooks on either side, clip the third hook at the top, put your weight in and pull all the straps tight. However, the way the lower strap went through this seat, I just could not get it tight to my satisfaction - the front would wiggle easily no matter what I did. And the top hook is just pure evil by design - it is very, very complicated to tighten.

I looked in the manual, I looked on line, I called a friend who I remembered had one of these seats as an "extra." The best I could figure out, this model is sold with two different types of top anchor strap. One has a normal seeming strap that you just pull to tighten... and you lift up on the tightening portion of the strap to loosen. The other has this insanely convoluted piece of metal with several slits in it for the strap to pass through and wrap back and forth and under and around itself. With the latter, you pretty much need to guess how long or short to make the strap BEFORE you install the seat, because adjusting it on the fly is difficult if not impossible.

I checked at Target the other day and the seat they are selling there had the "easier" style of top anchor tightener but I don't know if they are all like that now. The manual we had for the seat listed both types. Be sure when you buy that the top strap has the easier type of adjuster.

Beyond the top fastener issue, though, like I said, I found it hard to get the bottom strap just right. We had to have a complicated system of towels under the seat in my dad's car to help it sit in there solid - aside from the positioning aspect of things this seat has two raw plastic protrusions on the bottom which have begun to slice in the seat in my dad's car (Hyundai Sonata)

One one occasion we moved my nephew's car seat to our rental car (Saturn Aura) to take both boys somewhere and we had no better luck with ease of installation. It still took a lot of sweating, straining, and swearing to get it in there.

With our Britax seats, I have never had a problem in any vehicle with making the car seats fit, and I can have them removed and re-installed in less than 5 minutes. The Cosco seat drove me crazy. I will give this seat 3 stars because it is affordable and is supposed to meet safety requirements but I would not buy it without making very sure it fits in YOUR car and that is has the easier to use top strap attachment. I would also not suggest it if there is much chance of your having to move the seat frequently. And protect you seats with something if you don't want them getting torn up!

Great toy
My little one loves this teething ring. He loves to explore all of the different textures and shapes, fun to throw, and when he's done I can just put it on my wrist (it's big but easy to take along). It's very durable and easy to clean. Two thumbs up!

Love 'em, but expensive on Amazon
I order a lot of stuff on Amazon even though some of their stuff is a little more expensive (because of the service), but Sams Club had these, 600 for $14.88 and it includes a Tub.

I've tried other wipes and these are thick and more like cloth than any of the other and the scent is really nice. Not overly strong, but really ing, just like it says. I hated the unscented. It smelled awful instead of unscented. I even tossed 1/2 of them out when I got this one.

For baby clean up, they are wonderful. They really do the trick. One wipe does what two or three of some of the others do. They stay open all the way so I can clean up the worst messes without getting myself all messed up :-)

Not as good as I had hoped...
I got this cover after a child carseat inspector told me that the one I was using (the Bundle Me - which i love!) was not safe for the car seat and instead i should have one of these shower-cap type covers. I liked this at first, but now I notice that my DD turns her head and ends up underneath it - when she's fussing and i'm driving it makes me very nervous. I started taking it off once I get in the car. I miss my Bundle Me!
