Evenflo Triumph Advance LX Convertible Car Seat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great car seat.I purchased this one about 6 weeks ago when my son (child #3) outgrew his infant car seat at only 9 months old.I had previously purchased an earlier model of this car seat for my first child, and sadly our car was stolen with the car seat inside.I liked the first one I had, and I like this one even more.Here are the key points:

*It seems to be extremely comfortable for the child.It's big and cushy.My son likes it.My daughter did, too.

*It really seems to offer a lot of protection with its big seat that kind of curves around the child.On the down side, if you plan on moving the seat around a lot (as another reviewer mentioned), it is quite heavy.But the truth is, it's not designed to be portable--most convertible car seats are not.And if you have a small car, you might have trouble making it fit (I don't know this for sure because with three preschool children, I have a minivan).

*It is easy to install.I have installed a fair share of car seats, and this one is one of the better ones.

*It is very easy to adjust the straps.You can adjust the height of the shoulder straps from the front.How wonderful is that--it is such a hassle to rethread straps like you need to in many car seats that sometimes you can be tempted to leave them on a setting your child has outgrown for a while.You can also adjust the tension of the straps from the front very easily.You can actually make sure they are tight enough every time regardless of whether your little guy is wearing a sweatshirt and coat or a t-shirt.And if he likes to squirm while you put him in, you can loosen the straps, fasten him up and then tighten it to a safe tension.No problem at all.

*It is not too expensive.I paid $117 for mine, which is no small amount of money, but it is not as expensive as a Britax.I'm sure the Britax is fine, but I think a lot of people buy them because they are trendy or because they think they have to spend a lot to make sure their kids are safe.The evenflo is a great car seat.And it is much better than some of the cheap brands like the Cosco I have to use when visiting my parents (no padding, difficult to adjust straps, difficult to fasten clips, yuck).

All in all, I think it is a great choice for a car seat if you need or want a convertible.

Product Description:
Keep your child safe and secure in the car with the Triumph Advance LX, Harbortown from Evenflo. Designed for children two to 35 pounds in rear facing, and 20 to 50 pounds and up to 50 inches tall in forward facing, this convertible car seat allows your child to stay in a 5-point harness over a year longer than traditional car seats with a 40-pound rating, which helps keep your child safer as he grows.
The Evenflo Triumph Advance LX car seat offers:

The InfiniteSlide harness lets you easily adjust the harness. Infinite Slide Harness Adjustment
The Harbortown meets or exceeds all U.S. safety standards, making it a smart, reliable choice. One of its key safety features is the InfiniteSlide harness system which allows you to change the harness height by simply sliding the red tabs up and down. This system also does not require re-threading, saving you time and decreasing the chance of improper positioning. Additionally, the 5-point harness easily tightens with a quick turn on the TensionRight knobs on each side of the seat.
Proper Positioning for a Safe, Comfortable Ride
Proper positioning of your child in the car seat is extremely important, not only for his or her comfort, but also to ensure optimum safety and protection. That's why the Harbortown has a multi-position recline and removable body pillows to surround baby in soft support. Two buckle straps accommodate growing children by being easy to adjust, and the EPP foam liner helps absorb energy to maintain proper positioning in the case of sudden or jarring movement.
There's even a removable, flip-down cup holder to hold your child's favorite drink in a convenient location that they can easily access. This holder also folds out of the way when not in use. The Harbortown also offers perks for parents, including a machine washable pad that's a snap to remove and clean. Easy to install and adjust, the Harbortown features a parent-friendly design that's durable, reliable and, most importantly, safe.
