Review: My title says it all. Don't get this if your little one has GERD. The angle is terrible. My little one, who is a silent refluxer=no spit ups, vomited all over herself w/i the first 20 minutes in the seat. I knew the angle was off by looking at the seat, but thought I'd try anyway, so upset with myself for putting my little one through it. NOT GERD FRIENDLY and I am out $155.00 (since I obviously can't return it due to the vomit) and am off to find a new seat.

Review: I read all the review on amazon and chose to get this carseat anyway. I am bummed on 2 points. The first point is how hard it is to get all the padding off! This is our 5th carseat with our children and it takes me more than 10 minutes to get all the padding off! The second point, which, unfortunately, was one of the major selling points for us is the recline. It barely reclines! Airline seats recline more. Such a bummer. I should have gotten another First Years True Fit, which I am very happy with.

Review: I recently purchased my second Nautilus because I was so happy with the one I bought for my daughter about a year ago. This carseat is the last one you will need to buy once your child is ready to be forward-facing. Because of it's high top slots, my very tall daughter is able to remain in a 5-point harness much longer than most carseats of compairable price. Other carseats with high top slots are much more expensive. I also love that it converts to a high-back booster, and a backless booster if needed.

When I bought my first Nautilus about a year ago, it seemed to take quite a long time to set up, but they have improved this, and now you can be ready to install in the car in just a few minutes!

For the price, you can't beat this carseat. Just remember, this is a forward facing carseat, so your child must be (at minimum) 1 year old and 20 pounds.

Review: We love this car seat and this is the second we have bought as we now have one in each car. It adjusts easily, the straps are easy to use and it is great that it will last until our son is 10 if we want to use it that long. The cup holder on the new one is deeper too which is a good idea. We just wish they'd put a cup holder on each side so you could have snacks in one and a drink in the other.

Review: I am not happy with the buckle. It pushes down, not in. It is really hard to get a grip on it. I struggle almost every time I try to release my child. It worries me that it might be an emergency. Plus, I have an infant. Sometimes I cannot use two hands! Thinking about returning it.
