• Big and Beautiful!

• After playing with the demo model at the store and reading other reviews, we ordered the Harbortown model. First: It's nearly black, which is perfect for us. 2nd, it's HUGE! We're talking 6" from my van ceiling when installed. For me, that's not necessarily a bad thing, but it does make the baby mirror useless. On the other hand, I can easily see that the straps will adjust and the seat will accommodate the child to the specified poudage.
  The easy adjusting straps have already come in handy as cold weather is coming in.
  
  I can see why someone who has a very tiny baby might not like this; my 5 month old is sitting almost straight up. She loves it, but is not as inclined to sleep in it as she was her "infant carrier". A tiny baby might find themselves falling forward a little if they don't have head control yet. Overall, though, GREAT!

• Great

• Loved this carseat so much we bought a second one for our other car. Bought the first one back in April, bought the second one in September. Very easy to get our son in and out of. The only problem I had is putting it rear-facing in my SUV, it has wrap around bucket seats and the controls were not easy to use. Fortunately we only had it rear facing for a short time and now that it is forward-facing it is very easy to use. Love it and would buy it again!

• Great car seat

• This is a great seat. It is easy to adjust and comfy for my 8 month old. The one thing I noted is that it is considerably larger than the one my 3 year old has of the same model that we purchased 2+ years ago. Not a bad thing, just something I noticed.

• Great Car Seat for the money

• This is my third car seat within a year and by far the best. It is very easy to install, easy to clean and very easy to strap the child in securely. After our child got sick in the expensive Eddie Bauer seat I tried to take it apart to clean-impossible and aggravating. I did research that night and chose this one. I love it. The shoulder straps do not twist and the easy to use tension knobs keep our child secure. I highly recommend this product. This is a great buy.

• 2nd car seat

• Evenflo Triumph Advance LX Convertible Car Seat - Harbortown
  We needed a car seat, after reading (on the tags of the first seat that our child was riding in) that although she was under 1 year of age, she was over the height limit. It seems very safe and our baby looks quite comfortable in it. We can keep her rear facing for as long as possible and the seat should last for quite a few years. It can be used up to 50 lbs and goes forward and backward facing. purchasing from Amazon, was easy and the price was still the least expensive, even after delivery.

• great seat

• I am SOOO glad we didn't get sucked in to paying for a more expensive seat. This is great. The adjustments are smooth and easy to use. Baby is comfy.

• Safe and easy-to-use carseat!

• This is a great car seat! It got excellent safety ratings (most important to my husband and me), is easy to install, and the safety harness adjusts very easily. It is much less expensive than other car seats with the same safety ratings, so a good deal for the money. Our daughter falls asleep in it all the time and for longer car trips, we simply adjust the incline of the chair (also easy to do), so it leans back a little more and is more comfortable for her to sleep. My only minor complaint is that it is large - no problem in our Ford Explorer, but a little tight in our Toyota Corolla. However, we decided we would not compromise safety and didn't have $600 dollars to spend on 2 cars seats for both cars, so this works great for us!

• This is THE car seat you want!!

• I ordered this seat to replace the britax marathon I got for my baby shower. My daughter is a large 5 month old so I was ready to transfer her to a rear facing convertible seat. I wanted it to be user friendly and last for a LONG time. This seat fits the bill! I love the way it adjusts with ease. I think that alone makes it much more safe. Your child is more likely to be properly fitted if you can adjust it properly every time the seat is used. It was also much easier to secure in the vehicle than the britax. There is a place to secure an unused tether strap and locking clip system to if you do not use them instead of just tucking them in somewhere. The seat also provides side impact protection that the marathon does not. The cover is easily removable which is great for keeping it clean. The strap between the legs also has adjustable positions to get a proper fit. I was unable to get the marathon to fit properly on my daughter's legs. Finally, I put my 5 1/2 year old in the seat (without having to unthread the straps so it took all of 20 seconds to adjust) and she fit great in the seat too! Overall so awesome I ordered a second for my husband's car!

• Excellent carseat!

• I recently bought two Evenflo Triumph carseats. One for my toddler and another for my baby. Both kids love their seats and, more importantly, I love them too! The straps adjust-both in height and length-easily to fit your child correctly. No more taking a carseat out of the car and reworking straps when your child needs the shoulder straps moved up.
  
  Also, I have always hated disassembling a carseat in order to clean the cover. This carseat cover comes off easily and is also easy to put back on.
  
  I would recommend this carseat to use with toddlers and babies! It has been a great purchase for our family!

• Good, functional car seat

• This car seat was easy to install and was much more padded and just seemed "safer" than other comparable car seats that we looked at. We bought it for our 5-month-old son and he took to it immediately.
  
  The biggest plus for us is the fact that the shoulder straps are easily adjusted up or down to fit the height of our son's shoulders, unlike other models that require the straps to be pulled out the back of the seat and installed in another slot. This model allows for easy sliding up and down of the straps, which makes it a breeze to make a perfect fit.

• Horrible Choice

• Car seat tethers are not long enough to hook up to car anchors. Company provides extenders if you pay for it. Won't fit a Mazda 5 or GMC Acadia.

• Two fit in a sedan

• Don't have anything different to add really, but just wanted to mention that though these car seats are big, tall and bulky, we were able to fit two of them in my Acura TL for my 9 month old twins.
  It did take us about an hour to install them...but now we're set for a while, a long while hopefully. So far I am very happy with these car seats!

• Nice, but not the Britax

• After researching a while and trying out different seats in stores my husband and I finally decided on this one. It was rated on CR very closely to the Britax, and at over $100 less we thought it would be a good purchase. Although we are happy overall with the chair, the ratcheting action to adjust the straps does get annoying at times. A friend of mine has a standard Britax with the single button pull and it's much easier. However, for the price difference and safety standads, I think overall this is a very good chair. My daughter likes it, and it's safe, and in the end, I guess that's all that matters. Everything else regarding the chair is easy to set up and install, even in my tiny VW Golf.

• car seat heaven

• I love this carseat! very easy to install and the easy adjustment tool is awesome. the buckle sticks sometimes but other than that its the BEST CARSEAT EVER!!

• Much better than some older Evenflo styles

• We have the Titan, and this one is much better. Our biggest complaint is the taking in and out of the car. Which is why we have both, we do not take them out!!!! It is a real pain based on where the straps are to tighten. THen, when it is in, they are a bear to loosen to remove the seat. We loved the crash ratings and consumer reports ratings. The new belt system 5 pt harness is much improved with the knob for tightening. We love the knob, and my wife had a difficult time tightening the titan. We tried others a tthe store and this one was the easiest. The new beverage holder, as many reviews indicate, is a pain and essentially useless compared to the old one. IF you want a safe, easy to use (once in the car, and you can leave it and not transfer much), and comfortable seat, this is a great choice for a easy on the pocket book price.

• Great so far...........

• I have had this evenflo carseat a little over 2 months now, and it is working out great! VERY EASY to adjust straps! Safety is wonderful! I would recommend!

• First time mom in KS

• So far, I have had 2 issues with the car seat. The shoulder straps are uneven and I'm not quite sure how it happened since they were even when I first installed it. Also, I felt like the latch system didn't stay tight when I used it, so I switched to using my shoulder seatbelt with the locking clip.
  Car: I drive a Mazda 3. The seat fits great in the middle position (which it the safest anyway). It actually allows the front seat to be further back than my old Graco Snugride did.
  Baby: My daughter is 10 1/2 months and we've owned the seat for 2 months.
  Shoulder Straps: I love the way they adjust for height. There is no slipping the straps through holes, you simply shift them up to the next level when baby gets longer.
  Adjusting the Straps: Like the ability to adjust using the knob. So far I haven't had any issues with loosening the straps when I need to. I did notice you need to turn the knob BEFORE pulling on the straps to loosen them.
  Comfort: Seat seems to be comfortable. The buckle does not pinch her legs which some other people complained about. Her feet just touch the back seat of the car. This seat isn't suitable for younger babies. It sits up too straight. My daughter does not like sleeping in it. She stayed awake for a 40 minute drive at 10pm instead of sleeping in it. Of course, she hates sleeping in the car anyway, but she does sleep better in my husband's Cosco Scenera. Other than sleeping in it, she enjoys the ride.
  Wear and Tear: We use the belt clip for this seat so we never remove it from the vehicle. So far, no wear and tear on the fabric or mechanisms.
