Baby Products Reviews of Evenflo Triumph Advance LX Convertible Car Seat - Harbortown
Customer Review: Big and Beautiful!
Summary: 5 Stars
After playing with the demo model at the store and reading other reviews, we ordered the Harbortown model. First: It's nearly black, which is perfect for us. 2nd, it's HUGE! We're talking 6" from my van ceiling when installed. For me, that's not necessarily a bad thing, but it does make the baby mirror useless. On the other hand, I can easily see that the straps will adjust and the seat will accommodate the child to the specified poudage.
The easy adjusting straps have already come in handy as cold weather is coming in.
I can see why someone who has a very tiny baby might not like this; my 5 month old is sitting almost straight up. She loves it, but is not as inclined to sleep in it as she was her "infant carrier". A tiny baby might find themselves falling forward a little if they don't have head control yet. Overall, though, GREAT!

Loved this carseat so much we bought a second one for our other car. Bought the first one back in April, bought the second one in September. Very easy to get our son in and out of. The only problem I had is putting it rear-facing in my SUV, it has wrap around bucket seats and the controls were not easy to use. Fortunately we only had it rear facing for a short time and now that it is forward-facing it is very easy to use. Love it and would buy it again!Customer Review: Great car seat

This is a great seat. It is easy to adjust and comfy for my 8 month old. The one thing I noted is that it is considerably larger than the one my 3 year old has of the same model that we purchased 2+ years ago. Not a bad thing, just something I noticed. Customer Review: First time mom in KS

So far, I have had 2 issues with the car seat. The shoulder straps are uneven and I'm not quite sure how it happened since they were even when I first installed it. Also, I felt like the latch system didn't stay tight when I used it, so I switched to using my shoulder seatbelt with the locking clip.
Car: I drive a Mazda 3. The seat fits great in the middle position (which it the safest anyway). It actually allows the front seat to be further back than my old Graco Snugride did.
Baby: My daughter is 10 1/2 months and we've owned the seat for 2 months.
Shoulder Straps: I love the way they adjust for height. There is no slipping the straps through holes, you simply shift them up to the next level when baby gets longer.
Adjusting the Straps: Like the ability to adjust using the knob. So far I haven't had any issues with loosening the straps when I need to. I did notice you need to turn the knob BEFORE pulling on the straps to loosen them.
Comfort: Seat seems to be comfortable. The buckle does not pinch her legs which some other people complained about. Her feet just touch the back seat of the car. This seat isn't suitable for younger babies. It sits up too straight. My daughter does not like sleeping in it. She stayed awake for a 40 minute drive at 10pm instead of sleeping in it. Of course, she hates sleeping in the car anyway, but she does sleep better in my husband's Cosco Scenera. Other than sleeping in it, she enjoys the ride.
Wear and Tear: We use the belt clip for this seat so we never remove it from the vehicle. So far, no wear and tear on the fabric or mechanisms.
Customer Review: Great Car Seat for the money

This is my third car seat within a year and by far the best. It is very easy to install, easy to clean and very easy to strap the child in securely. After our child got sick in the expensive Eddie Bauer seat I tried to take it apart to clean-impossible and aggravating. I did research that night and chose this one. I love it. The shoulder straps do not twist and the easy to use tension knobs keep our child secure. I highly recommend this product. This is a great buy.
