Cosco Juvenile Summit 22260 Booster Car Seat - Bouncing Sheep

Pros: 5-point harness Latch system compatible converts to booster seat
Cons: straps keep twisting difficult to tighten if loosened all the way

This carseat is functional. That is, it does what it's advertised to do. It keeps your child buckled in, but it's not user-friendly. First of all I should say that this is my 2nd carseat. Our other carseat is a Britax, so my knowledge of carseats ...

Pros: easy to install and to adjust color and fabric
Cons: none

We got this as a gift for our 2 year old son. One nice thing about this car seat was that it was easy to adjust and install. It has been holding up well to our sons wiggling and messes. I personally also liked the color and fabric!

Pros: Padding is ample, roomy, easy to install and make adjustments
Cons: Cleaning is a nightmare

I bought this car seat 8 months ago for my grandson to ride in my car. He had just outgrown his rear-facing seat. He loves this seat. He's a little guy (weighed a pound and a half at birth) and although he's 26 pounds now at age 22 months, he's not a chubby little boy and this seat doesn't swallow him like some did yet it's roomy enough for him to be active while we travel.

I like the fact that it reclines. His parents bought a Graco and paid more for it and it doesn't recline or have arm rests. This one is also a lot more padded than some of the much more expensive seats.

It was easy to install and making adjustments was very easy. It's also easy to get him in and out of the seat. I do have to search for the metal tabs that click into the locking latch but that's no big deal.

Cleaning is a bit of a nightmare, though. Taking the cover off is not difficult but washing it by hand is a bit awkward and then putting it back on requires someone with tools or an engineering degree.

Pros: cup holder, 5 point harness, adjustable strap height
Cons: is not going to withstand the wear and tear of a toddler

I plan on returning this seat. I bought it for my three year old to use the 5 point harness now and use a seatbelt when she was older. However, the fabric is already showing pull marks after using it for a week. It shows black marks, I think from her climbing in. Not going to work when I'd like the seat to last 3 years!
