Graco Extend2Fit 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this car seat was a great purchase. It was super easy to install and my baby seems very comfortable in it. I also love the gray color because it’s not too light and not too dark.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Solid build, simple to use, soft fabrics. Great product.

Love it! Installed very easily. Ample padding for comfort.

Car seat was easy to install and seems sturdy and safe! My only complaint is that it’s difficult to tighten the straps

I’ve used Graco car seats for all three of my children, and I can’t express how impressed I am with their quality and products. My youngest child is currently in the 3-in-1 Extend2Fit Graco car seat, and it’s an absolute delight. The padded seat is incredibly comfortable, providing my baby with maximum comfort and security. The initial install is an absolute breeze! The overall durability seems to be high-quality and I will forever recommend Graco to all my mom friends!

Installed this tonight and overall it seems like a quality product but there is a major design flaw with the harness release button on what seems to be select colors. Check the pictures and notice that the Target exclusive and purple versions feature a flap between the legs that exposes the harness release button. The Ashten and other color do not show that flap and I can confirm that there is none on the Ashten. You have to fit your finger through the slit that the belt to tighten the harness comes through. With the seat in rear facing mode, this slit is basically right against the seat and the button is back from the entrance of the slit about an inch or so. It’s very cumbersome to operate the switch without the flap to expose it and both my wife and I have smaller hands, too. We will consider buying this in a different color but we are returning this one. It’s extremely disappointing to have a different design between different colors of the same model.

It is designed to keep the kiddo rear facing longer and with the new information about how much safer rear facing is, this was an answer to my worries. We have had it for a year and a half now, still in great shape, and my son loves it.

Safe, comfortable, and easy to install. This is the second Extend2Fit car seat we have purchased. Our first granddaughter is three and the seat has grown with her. Our second granddaughter just moved to this seat from her infant seat and likes it! So glad we bought them!

Seat feels great. Super challenging to install in a car. Since the seat is so big, tightening it down while facing backward is more than challenging. It’s painful.

Very difficult to install. Also leaves very little room for front seat. The plastic foot extender makes me nervous for if we were ever in an accident. Car seat feels flimsy to me. Thankfully It’s just going in our Nannie’s car as a backup but I probably would have gone with a different car seat had I known. definitely will be sticking with our Nuna for kid #2.

Serves our purpose but is EXTREMELY heavy. This has to be moved between cars.

If I could give this 0 stars I would. We bought this as a secondary to be in another vehicle for grandparents or our other vehicle as needed. The install is AWFUL. It takes two people with significant strength to get it. Next the straps are unnecessarily hard to tighten and loosen for your child to get in and out. The button to release the straps is hidden beneath fabric. Save your money. Our Chicco one fit out performs this seat by a landslide.

We have a tall kid and I love that this seat had an extender for his longer legs. So he can rear face even longer! Easy to wipe clean and cozy padding. Love it!

It’s extremely heavy-not lightweight at all. The straps are hard to manage and the instructions are not straight to the point. Your paying for the appearance- only thing comfortable is the extend leg space

Like many other reviewers, I have a few complaints about this car seat, otherwise it’s well made and seems safe and durable. We’ve been using it daily around town for a year now, but quickly had to buy a different seat for car #2 that we take on long car rides. This is because the head positioning is too forward (in rear facing recline positions 1 & 2). The sides are very high which makes it difficult to get my son in and out compared to our other seat. Also, the cup holders don’t fit any toddler cup or snack cup that we’ve owned and are difficult to reach for under 2. Last complaint, we’ve had a few carsick messes and this is so difficult to clean. That material is actually really nice, but gunk is still stuck in the creases after machine washing, stuff somehow gets behind the cover into every plastic crevice, and the straps never stop smelling like vomit no matter what I do. It’s also very difficult to tighten the latch strap, I dread taking it in and out of the car for clean ups. We purchased due to the higher weight limit for rear facing, but realistically will need to switch to forward facing well before hitting that limit so that’s no longer a benefit.

Just tested this seat out on a flight with a car seat cart and it worked out great! Easy to install in the car as well and clear instructions. Our little one was smiling and looked comfy. Only challenge on the flight is that I had to carry it over the seats, since it didn’t fit through the isle. Other than that, it’s a great seat for the price!

The car seat is great! I was surprised by how soft the material felt compared to my daughters infant car seat. She seems to like it and is comfortable in it. The only downfall I've had with it so far is it is a little hard to tighten/loosen the straps but overall the carseat is great and I recommend it.

In some other car seats the cushion is very thin but this one is exceptionally padded. Both grandmothers and her parents have the same car seat because we love it. We know that she is safe in this seat. We couldn't be happier with our purchase.

Works great for our son. Plenty of growing room for him. The ability to easily adjust the height is great. Likewise, adjusting the angle of the seat is very simple and user friendly.

Kept my child safe in a high impact collision. It did its job.
