Need Help Choosing a Car Seat?
Seat is Good for You If:
You travel often.
This seat is one of the lightest forward-facing only harnessed seat options at only 14 pounds. It can be a good option to take on a plane. But still as mentioned previously in this review, it can be challenging to install in some vehicles.
Use Caution if:
You have a vehicle with non-removable headrests.
This seat is often not compatible in vehicles with non-removable forward-tilting headrests.
You are looking for a seat that is easy to install.
If this is a priority, you should mark this seat off of your list. Check out one of these instead.

SITS Bottom Line
If you are looking for a budget-friendly seat, the Graco Tranzitions could be a good option for you as it is one of the least expensive forward-facing seats on the market. However, if you are looking for a seat that is easy to install or you have a vehicle with headrests that are non-removable and tilt forward, you should seek another option.
