Customer Reviews
Car Seat App is AwEsOmE!
Can't wait to share with my fellow technicians, family and friends.
Great app
As a CPST, I like that they recommend extended rear facing! I would like to see the booster section include a statement about a child sitting appropriately the whole ride before consider before using a booster-- as this is a much more important factor than age or weight. If the child isn't sitting in the seat the way it is intended to be used, they are better off in a forward facing seat still.
