The side-impact tested, Graco Nautilus 3-in-1 Car Seat provides versatility and longevity helping to protect your child 20-100 lbs. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends your child stay harnessed as long as possible. Nautilus secures your child in a five-point harness from 20-65 lbs, then converts to a belt-positioning booster from 30-100 lbs and finally converts to a backless booster from 40-100 lbs.
| Wish my car seat was like this :) | 2010-08-25 | 5 / 5 |
| Our toddler turned 1 year and it was getting increasingly difficult to get her to fit into a rear facing seat - it was time to change the car seat.
And here is our story of how we ended up with car seat and why we like it so much :) and why you might want to consider the evenflo triumph depending on your child's height and weight
Even though the government allows a child above 20 lbs to be placed front facing - it is always better to sit the child rear facing - even if your baby and you do no like it - safety comes first. With this point in mind - we started looking for a bigger rear facing seat, unfortunately this seat (Graco Nautilus) cannot be rear faced, so we went with the evenflo triumph.
Evenflo triumph is a great seat, it supports up to 65 lbs, can be rear faced or front faced, comes with a harness adjustment ... + it feels like a very safe seat, but we had a problem : our baby girl is one of the tall ones - she is at a 97 percentile height (only 3 percent of girls at her age are taller than her) - which means we could not sit her rear faced in the evenflow triumph without making it extremely uncomfortable for her - a bit of discomfort is ok, but having to fold legs and and struggle through a long journey is not worth it.
So we had an option - to either keep the evenflo triumph and make it front faced and use it until she is 65 lbs or buy a new car seat like the Graco Nautilus which we can use till she gets to 100 lbs. We went with the Graco Nautilus and cannot be any more happier.
Good:
+ Solid build quality - Aluminium backing, feels heavy and sturdy
+ Very comfortable - Been on a 6 hr drive and our baby just slept through it
+ Cup holder is nice thing to have - use it to keep water, small toys ... whatever it takes to keep the baby through the journey
+ Easy to install (i have a 07 Camry)
+ Easy to adjust harness, fasten the child and unfasten
+ Lasts from 22 lbs to 100 lbs - so the only thing you will have to buy after the infant seat
Bad:
- Nothing particular I found, except that if I wish if could also use this rear faced.
And remember - if you can fit your baby rear faced - try to keep him/her rear faced for as much longer as you can |
| I think this car sheet is good for you if your child growing up now. And it seemes that this car sheet is rigid and safer one at least for me.I could this car sheet to be attached Outback 2010 and Corolla 2009. It took some time for me for final attachment. From now on, my dauter likes this car sheet very much.
Please make a final decition under your responcebility for purchasing this sheet. |
| Had 2+ years, Love it! | 2010-07-26 | 5 / 5 |
| | We have our 5-year old and 2 year old both in a Graco Nautilus and have been more than happy. They both seem very comfortable, and have plenty of room, etc. We've been using at least one Nautilus since soon after they were first introduced, more than 2 years ago. That seat cover has been through the washing machine numerous times, and still looks great. I love the sturdy, built in cup holders, and my kids love the little 'toy holders' built into their arm rests. And my 5-year old still is very comfortable in her 5 point harness, which makes me feel more comfortable as well. Highly recommend. |
| Great seat | 2010-06-13 | 4 / 5 |
| We bought this seat as an additional seat when we added a second vehicle. This chair is slimmer than our other seat (an Evenflo) however our daughter easily has more room. I left the body support in and she can still move around quite freely (she is a big 2.5 year old). The colours are great, pink for her and grey to match the silver of my new car. The cup holder is far better than the Evenflo, which is a colapsible side holder. The Graco cup holder, which is built in, is much more secure and does not take up the extra room. I also like that the buckle between the legs has a cushion around it so as not to make her legs uncomfortable.
My only criticism is that it has a small recline range, much less than our Evenflo.
On the whole we are very pleased with the chair so far and are looking forward to being able to use it right up to booster seat. |
| Nice, comfy seat | 2010-06-05 | 4 / 5 |
| We bought this for our 21 month old and so far she really likes it, which means I do, too.
It seems comfortable to her and she likes the little cubbies on either side that she can store things in. It looks like it will be comfortable for her for a long time, too.
It's easy to assemble--I think there's two snap together pieces--out of the box and extremely easy to install with the LATCH system. The shoulder straps for the 5 point harness were too low for my daughter with the padding on, but you can't use the padding if you raise the straps. However, if I took the padding out, the straps were a bit too high. We found a solution (she has to be without the padding with the straps on the low setting) so I'm only mentioning all this because you need to uninstall the car seat (at least partially anyway) to adjust the straps. Make sure the straps fit your child the right way before you install it, unless you like doing it more than once. Her other car seat, which is the only forward facing one I have any experience with, is a 3-in-1 Safety First Alpha Luxe Echelon, and you raise and lower the straps from the front. So I was not entirely happy when I realized that every time she grows, I have to pull the seat out and re-do the harness. I like getting them installed professionally and leaving them there, which is not a practical option here. That's the only thing I really don't like, although those guards that go on the straps near the childrens' shoulders are on with flimsy vecro. I'm pretty sure that if my daughter took a look at them, it wouldn't take her long to figure that out, and they will become projectiles. I wish I could put the cup holder on the other side (it needed to be on the passenger side of the car) but that thing's not going anywhere.
