There are already quite a few great reviews, so I won't go into a bunch of detail. We were super lucky to win this seat in a raffle (hence no "Amazon Verified Purchase" note), and I couldn't be happier with it! Our son has been using it since he was 16 months old, when he was 32" and 21lbs, and he is currently 22 months, 34.25", and 25 lbs. I think he will be happy in it for years to come.Peg Perego Convertible Premium Infant to Toddler Car Seat, Black
The seat seems like it would be very comfortable - nicely padded, nice fabric, shoulder strap pads that are not stiff; my son falls asleep in it all the time, so I'm guessing that it is actually very comfortable for him.
Compared to our Chicco NextFit, it is very easy to get our son in and out of (the sides are a bit lower profile), and the harness straps are super easy to adjust. Also, compared to the NextFit, our son doesn't get at all as sweaty in this seat.
Because the sides are relatively low, our son, at 22 months, has no problems climbing in and out of it himself - we have it installed in the middle position, so he is able to use the vehicle seat quite a bit as he is climbing in,but I think he would still be okay if the car seat were installed in one of the outboard positions.
There is not a stated rear facing height limit (the limit is in relation to the shell height - I think 1" below the top of the shell in the 7th position), but it seems that it will allow a child to remain rear facing longer than most car seats on the market. The rear facing weight limit is higher than average at 45 pounds.
If you want to see a very interesting visual review of rear facing height limits for convertible car seats, do an internet search for: A Height Comparison of Rear Facing Convertible Car Seats on the Car Seats for the Littles web site (CSFTL.org; they also have a GREAT group on facebook if you are looking for car seat advice or have questions about best practices for car seat use). Amazon will not let me post a URL web link, but the search above should easily get you to the height comparison.
The only negative thing I have to say about this seat is that it is a pain in the butt to install with the seat belt, but it is not impossible, and as long as you don't have to do it often, it is not a big deal. I have heard that it is quite easy to install with LATCH.
We've been using this car seat for six months now, and I couldn't be happier! My son is 19 months - we still have him rear-facing for safety, and the seat keeps him perfectly comfortable. My favorite thing about it is how easy it is to get him in and out of. The tightening strap pulls very smoothly, and without much effort unlike his old one (Baby Trend).
Was searching long and hard for a convertible car seat to fit rear-facing in the back of my Scion TC which is so small that even an infant seat used to push the passenger seat forward a few inches.
I put the seat RF in the middle. Mind you it is a royal pain to climb into the back seat to strap the baby in, but I refuse to spend money on a new car since I only drive with my son once or twice a week.
The seat is very well made, it was easy to install and it is clear that they have used quality materials and fabrics. Once my son gets over his initial annoyance at being strapped into yet another 'baby jail', he falls asleep or sits contentedly in this seat.
This carseat is simply perfect. I love the multiple recline positions, and my daughter does, too. The seat is very comfortable and well-padded. My daughter's head is well-supported and she often falls asleep in it. Her head never flops forward or flops around, which was a problem with the Britax Boulevard, which sat her too upright. Another plus over the Boulevard is that the Peg's shoulder guards are a soft, padded fabric, whereas the Boulevard's shoulder guards are a bulky rubber. The big selling point to me with this seat was the shoulder pads and the Side Impact Protection. The PEG is so well-made, we bought two of these - one for each car in the household.
This car seat was even better than expected! So easy to use and the baby is much happier than his infant seat. We switched him at about 15lbs and he was 3 months old. I've recommended this seat to several friends already!
