The True Fit Recline Convertible Car Seat has been awarded high "ease of use" ratings from the National Highway Transportation Administration. What does that mean? That after reviewing our seats, our labels, and our instructions it was determined our seats were easy to use. And if a car seat is easier to install, this means there is less of a chance that it will be installed correctly.
Why buy the True Fit convertible seat? Did you know that you can use our seat from 5 to 65 lbs, up to 50" tall, and during the entire time of use your child will be secured in a 5-Point Harness. And most Safety Advocates recommend keeping your child in a harness as long as possible! Advocates also recommend keeping your little one rear-facing for as long as possible. We have a removable headrest that really is easy to remove. One finger lifts the release and you are able to pull the headrest off until you need it, usually up to 22lbs. As your infant starts to grow, simply add the headrest back on and you are good to go in the rear-facing position up to 35lbs. And when your infant is ready to watch you drive (at 35 lbs or so) simply make sure that headrest is in place and turn your seat around. And remember, when your child does move to a forward facing position, (around 35 lbs), your child will still be using the 5-point harness.
This model, the C 650, also features smaller bottom rails and a flip foot on the bottom. flip it forward for rear-facing installation and flip it back when you move to the forward-facing installation. This seat is also fully equipped with EPP foam and has deep side wings that surround your child. There is a center angle indicator in the front of the seat to use when installing in the rear-facing position. The easy-to-read indicator will help you determine if you have installed your car seat correctly. For your infant, it will indicate the advocate recommended 45-degree angle for installation and as you keep it rear-facing to 35 lbs. you can check the recommended 35 degree angle for installation. The side LATCH attachments are easy to access when installing your seat and easy to secure when you remove the seat from your vehicle.
