I love this item for my nephew!!
Best car seat I’ve ever bought for my nephew. It’s safe and very comfortable for your infant/toddler/big kid. Fits PERFECT in a car. Doesn’t take up a lot of space either. It will last you years!!

Slim car seat that's only 16.7 inches wide.
A great car seat that's narrower than the other SlimFit model and 4Ever models.

Third One We've Bought
This is our favorite. We just got our third one. We plan to use these for all of our kids. Love how you can fit 3 in the bench row! Also love the quick detach for throwing whichever pieces need it into the wash.

Compact Car Seat
We recently purchased this car seat. Love how compact it is and yet all the features it has. Love Graco car seats!

Returned them
We returned them because they don’t have the safety rating we wanted. We then ordered the Graco forever DLX.

Great for a small sedan
We have a small 4 door sedan that we like to run errands in, this fit in it nicely leaving room to spare. The quality was better than I expected based off of previous graco car seats and reviews. I would definitely purchase again.

3 across the back
Im so glad we found some carseats that fit into the honda odyssey. We have a 7,6,4, and2 year old twins, which means all are in a seat. 3 across the back is the only way this works

6 out of 5!
I’ve been installing car seats for my children for 21 years. Graco has never been my brand of choice. I’ve slate found them clunky, awkward, twisty straps, and difficult to install and adjust.
After reading researchin how to fit 3 in the third row of a dodge caravan, this was touted as the only car seat that worked. Reluctantly, I bought one to try.
Wow, Graco! They’ve completely outdone themselves! From the box to rock solid in the car, this bad boy took 15 min. Zero bad words. Zero tears. It adjusts in the front. It reclines. It does everything! The built in seatbelt lock off that’s accessible from the front is the icing on the cake. You know how you normally have to hug a car seat to thread the belt through? This one, you just lift the padding and do that from the front. It’s like a panel of moms designed this car seat.
I’ve been installing car seats long enough that I’ve used a little metal locking plate to lock the belt that doesn’t have retract lock. This car seat has that built in! And it’s simple! The middle seat of my third row caravan doesn’t retract lock. This car seat was designed for that!
After the ease of installation (even easier than other name brands I generally prefer!) I gushed to my husband who told me to buy 2 more and try the 3 in row
But is it comfortable? All 3 have fallen asleep in it with minimal head slump. The straps tighten smoothly with enough twisting to adjust but not so much that there’s going to be bad language, if you know what I mean.
If you’re on the fence, just do it. I have had so many car seats. Seriously so many. This one is my favorite ever

The ONLY SlimFit Car Seats for My G-Grandchildren!
As my brood of great-grandchildren increases the SlimFit Infant & 3-in-1 car seats are perfect across the back seat. Graco's offerings are safe, convenient & reasonably priced - been a fan for years.

Machine washable and easy on/off seat covers
The way the seat cover snaps on and off in multiple pieces for easy machine washing is what makes this car seat amazing for us. My daughter threw up in the seat and it was very easy to take off and wash what we needed to wash, and put back on without guessing if we had it on right or not. My older brother was jealous the car seats weren't this good when his kids were born a decade ago!

Easy to use, comfortable, light but safe
We purchased and had this seat shipped to my parents for a visit home with our daughter when she was just over a year old, and I was so happy with it I ordered one for my vehicle when we returned home. Going on two years now and the seat has held up great. I love how easy it is to move and adjust. My daughter (now 4) prefers this over her Britax. Yes, my daughter went through a phase where she would undo the chest clip, but after putting a zip up hoodie over the straps she stopped. It washes well and is easy to clean. My only suggestion would be to make the cupholders fully removable.

Hard to tighten straps
The one thing I do not like is it is hard to pull the straps tight, it will feel like you can't tighten it anymore but yet there is still a lot of space where you can pinch the straps. We have another car seat that is much much easier to use.

A great purchase!
Exactly what we were looking for! Slim enough to fit 3 across in the 3rd row of our Tahoe, which is narrower than the second row, so that's impressive. I've had the Nautilus 65 for 5 kiddos, which we loved. But I do like that this SlimFit3 has 2 cup holders, so we use car seat snack trays in the extra cup holder to offer more room for snacks, small toys, pacis, etc. Set up for an older kiddo was not straight forward - read the manual!! All in all, though, this is a great purchase!

5 Stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have 4 of these car seats! 2 in my Nissan Armada and 2 in my husbands Toyota Tundra. I felt compelled to write my own review after reading all the negative ones online, because in my opinion this car seat deserves 5 stars! Mind you I’m that person who reads the manual, and in fact still have them in the back pocket holder of all 4 car seats . I only had an issue tightening the straps one time, I called Graco and come to find out there was food stuck below the seat within the strap compartment which had the strap in a bind. My kids are now 6 and 4 and I’ve had these seats for YEARS, in fact the only reason I was on the site was to review the standards for possibly changing to booster seat position. These are slim, reliable car seats that don’t break the bank. I moved my daughter to hers after she outgrew the infant carrier, my son has been in his since about 6 months. I do break them down and wash all the parts Occasionally. And I also blow them out with the compressed air at the car wash when I’m there (I’m a bit of a neat freak). In my opinion you cannot go wrong with these seats. I briefly used a Cicco and my daughter liked this Graco better because it has 2 cup holders. Currently my son just turned 4 and is 42lbs and my daughter is 6 and also 42-43 lbs.

Do not purchase
I’ve had this car seat for almost a year now. My child is now Two. Average size. She is now able to move herself forward while I’m driving and the straps start to loosen up. In the case of an accident, I’m terrified what could happen. Even if I pull the straps as tight has the comfortably go along with rising the middle lock towards her chest it will still loosen when she attempts to move forward. Very upsetting. Such a safety hazard. This should be recalled.

Good but…
Very compact and great for my car! But, it’s a bit annoying to install. When the recline is all the way back it still sits my toddler too far forward. Not ideal.

What happened to Graco Quality?!
I own two of these seats. The light gray one has been used by my 14 month old for about 7months and my 2.5yr old switched to the purple Katrina from the regular slimfit one month ago. I have used Graco and the slimfit design since my 11.5yr old was born. They always held up great until now. The materials of these seats is easily snagged/ruined. I strongly dislike Velcro and I don’t give my babies sharp objects let alone while driving so I’m not sure how both seat cushions are worn and tattered looking with holes and snags. My 5yr old took over my daughters slimfit that she used for nearly 2.5yrs and it still looks great, no snags or holes anywhere. Due to having an accident and 4 kids, I have gone through 8 slimfit/slimfit LX seats and 2 graco infant carriers. Quality is not what it was before. If it weren’t for that alone, they fit like they should and function with ease. I won’t be getting rid of them, that’s just wasteful in itself, but I will be sad every time I look at them knowing how much I spent on them to not be durable.

Awesome car seat
I wanted This car seat initially for the slim fit to have more room in the back seat. But I’m just even more excited about how easy it is to install. The hooks that you clamp into the seat are soooo much easier. That’s my favorite feature honestly because I’m always taking my babies car seat in and out. I would recommend this car seat 10/10 get it mom.

Chest clip too easy to open
I purchased this slim fit 3 in 1 for my son who is 2. Liked how it is less bulky but also seems safe with added padding for side impact. I was very disappointed when my son started undoing the chest clip and then pulling his arms out while I was driving! I had to return it to Target because it wasn't safe for him. I also emailed Graco customer service and they told me to try and train my son not to open the chest clip. Not helpful as other parents have complained about the very same issue and I feel it should be recalled and redesigned.

Fits three-across in a Corolla
These seats are as narrow as advertised. I thought for sure I'd need a new car to fit three kids in my 2019 Corolla, but these managed to squeeze in.

Not slim enough
So far we have not used this car seat, but have tried installed it in our vehicles to check the fit.
We purchased the slim LX car seat because it is indicated you can get 3 car seats across. We need this next to an infant carrier seat which does not work. The manual does talk about how to install next to an infant seat, however there is definitely not space to do so in our SUV.
The car seat seems comfortable for our little one, disappointed in the inability to fit 3.

Perfect Fit!
Our daughter loves it! She falls asleep within a few minutes! I almost prefer it over our Nuna Rava because of how slim it is and the material is great!
