Description
The Graco® Contender™ Slim Convertible Car Seat features 2 modes of use to grow with your child from rear-facing harness (5-40 lb) to forward-facing harness (22-65 lb), with a slim car seat design that helps save space in your back seat. This is the perfect travel car seat as its lightweight design easily transfers from car to car, and it is certified for aircraft use to help keep your child safe while flying. It easily grows with your child with the Simply Safe Adjust™ harness system, which allows the headrest and harness to adjust together in one motion. The included LATCH and easy-to-read level indicator help make installation easier. This car seat conveniently features a removable, dishwasher-safe cup holder, a machine-washable seat pad, and 2 recline positions for ease of use. The car seat is Graco® ProtectPlus Engineered™ to help protect in frontal, side, rear, and rollover crashes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Overall a good carseat. Overall, good. We bought this one on sale from the website, when we receive it, it was manufactured last year. Bought one to leave in the grandparents' house. So far so good. Easy to install and belts are very easy to adjust. We have a Graco slim fit carseat in our car, this one seems to be smoother to adjust than what we have.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Only 2 recline options Really bummed, but it was my fault for not realizing but this car seat has no other recline options except just rear facing and forward facing, and those can’t be adjusted. My baby doesn’t like to be in full recline mode (laying back) and unfortunately that’s the only option we have until he can be forward facing. Most car seats will have options to sit up a bit more as he gets older. I went with this car seat because of the price as I needed 3 car seats. Returning is too much of a hassle for such big items so we may have to just deal with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Grand baby safety and comfort I already have this car seat for my grandson and love it. I needed another for my granddaughter so decided to get the same one. I love that it's comfortable for them, safe and easy to install.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Car Seat Great car seat. Disappointed that recent purchase of car seat (August 2023) from Graco was sent car seat manufactured in February 2022. The car seat is made well. I've purchased other Graco car seats in the past, replacing them as they reached their expiration. The quality, safety and ease of use makes this one of the best seats on the market.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love Graco carseats! Very nice carseat! It takes us less space and lighter, but still roomy for your child! Just what I wanted!
Date published: 2023-08-12
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Slim but Heavy I love the padding in the carseat, it has a lot ofnpadding so i know its comfortable. Although it it slim, its heavy to carry, i think its the heaviest carseat I have had so far. Its NOT the carseat you want if tou are switching cars or you need it to travel.
