5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased with this car seat.,
This review is from: Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat, Black (Baby Product)
Despite what some reviews have said, this does work with the Orbit stroller. It uses the same docking system and works great with the car seat base when rear facing. The docking system allowed me to keep my son rear facing longer because it was so easy to rotate the seat when getting him in and out of the car. I am a huge believer in extended rear facing and love this aspect of the seat. We did end up switching to forward facing because my son is a terrible rider and was crying himself sick. When rear facing I couldn't make sure he wasn't choking and this was creating an unsafe driving condition. Once the seat was switched to forward facing the base is no longer used, instead two side braces are installed on the seat. I have honestly never had a problem with the straps twisting. I always loosen the straps when taking him out and tighten them when putting him into the seat. The cover comes off for cleaning without removing the straps which means that I don't have to remove the seat from the car, this is a life saver. The only issue that I have ever had was a weird issue with cleaning. When my son got sick in the car some of it got into a crevice under the cover and was very difficult to clean. Even with that issue, I am very pleased with this seat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great car seat!,
This review is from: Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat, Black (Baby Product)
This is a great car seat! It is super comfortable and my toddler loves it. The straps are easy to adjust and the set up is pretty easy.
If you have the base, it's very convenient to be able to swivel the seat towards you to load your kid in and out of the car.
The look is cool and modern and the safety records are impeccable!

5.0 out of 5 stars we love it!,
This review is from: Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat, Black (Baby Product)
We don't have the stroller, only two toddler car seats for our twins and we are completely satisfied! They are safe and sturdy, the fabric is very soft, and our boys are comfortable riding in them - they love to look outside enjoying the scenery - it relaxes and puts them to sleep easily - giving us peace of mind driving with two calm babies in the back! In our case the seats are fixed in the car - taking the children out of them each time is not a big deal for us - we would have to keep doing it anyways... We hope Orbit Baby will release a system for multiples soon!
5.0 out of 5 stars love it!,

Would buy this over again without question. So much nicer then any other car seat I have put her in in other cars. Expensive, but worth it. The whole orbit system was well worth the money!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this carseat!,
This review is from: Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat, Mocha (Baby Product)
I think it speaks for itself that when we took this out of the box and put it on the floor, my daughter climbed into the seat all by herself and refused to get out. The seat is very comfortable and deep, so when she falls asleep in it, she can lean her head on the sides of the seat. Yes, it is heavy, but it's a CAR SEAT, not a stroller. We do not (nor do we intend to) move it in and out of the car. Safety is our first priority and this seat seems to fit the bill! (We travel a lot and still haven't found a toddler car seat that is "easy" to fly with.) I like that our daughter (now 18 months) can still sit rear-facing, although we may have to turn her around soon. (We had an Evenflo for my son, which was fine, but nowhere near the quality of the Orbit.) The details on the Orbit are great, too: the velcro holdbacks for the straps so you don't have to dig them out from under your toddler every time, the removable seat pads/cover that make it easy to clean after snacks get out of hand (we love being able to remove just the soiled pieces instead of having to take off the entire cover), and the straps are easy to adjust (just like the infant car seat). Best of all, the rotation on the base has saved us a lot of back pain. If there are any negatives, it would be that the buckle piece between toddler's legs tends to flop down so she sits on it and we have to pull it out from under her and if I leave the seat turned facing the door (when she's not in the car), the top of it partially blocks my view out the back. We haven't tried using this on the stroller, so I can't speak to that, but as a car seat, it's fantastic! I wish they made an adult-sized one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Butter !,
This review is from: Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat, Black (Baby Product)
Its a great seat. I wish the rest of toddler line was a good- the toddler stroller, as my father-in-law refers to it once we are ready to go as the babies covered wagon ready to head out on the prairie. However, this car seat is great! I love the swivel action. My son grew out of the infant car seat at 5 months. This seat is great for the car. To be honest there is no way I would even try to take this on a plane, even with the base stroller. But as for getting in and out of the car - its a breeze. Its worth getting even if you aren't getting the rest of the orbit line.
