Eddie Bauer Deluxe High Back Booster Car Seat in Astoria

The seat does what it needs to and for the price is appropriate. I don't switch cars with it, and installing it once was a little more cumbersome than the twice as expensive Recaro back-to-front seat we have in the other car. The belts are thinner than the Recaro's, which actually makes it easier to twist any wrongly aligned latches. The tightening strap is difficult to pull snugly, but not frustratingly so.

As others have mentioned, there isn't much head support for naps while driving, so for longer trips where your child may be napping, have something to use for head support so the nap lasts longer than til the first major turn.

The low seat height and fold-able armrests are great for ingress/egress, but for whatever reason, when the seat is empty, they jiggle annoyingly when driving unless you wrap a harness strap around them.

I purchased this carseat from Amazon.com and per usual it came quickly and fit the description perfectly. I loved the style, the features, and the fabric of this seat. However, after using it for 2 weeks I had to return it. The main issue was that when my daughter falls asleep in this carseat, her head flops around because there's no head support. Obviously this isn't comfortable for her, so she wakes up and cries every time I turn a corner or step on the brake.

As a note, my wife has a Deluxe Eddie Bauer High Back Booster Car Seat that does have a head support, so some of the models have them. This seat's head cushion stops my daughter's head from flopping sideways. I'll shop around for other seats, specifically looking at the Graco Nautilus, but if I don't like that, I'll probably buy what my wife has. I hope this helps.

This is a great seat. The ability to quickly change the configuration including straps and recline and make it work with any car/van you have really rocks. I have 3 different seats and this one is the easiest and best by far.
