Customer Reviews of Portabout Car Seat Base - Navy

Good Base, HORRIBLE CAR SEAT
I highly recommend getting a different type of car seat. We haven't had any problems with the base or getting the car seat out of the base. We received it as a gift, because it matched our stroller. We've only had problems with the horrible car seat. First of all the Portabout is awful. You have to tighten & untighten the straps to get your baby in & out of the thing(it goes over the head). Also, the straps only tighten from one side. It takes us 15 to 20 minutes to get her strapped in, since we have to pull on one side then pull up on the other & then tighten & even then the straps are not tight enough. When we contacted Evenflo regarding it, they were not very helpful in remeding the problem. We went with Safety 1st. <

>Please for the sake of your child, buy a different car seat other than the portabout.

Has a few kinks, but the convenience outways the issues
This base makes carrying your infant around a breeze, assuming that you know how it works. The thing about this base is, the inital set up takes some time because you have to get it level and ensure that it is secure. <

>The issue that is mentioned in the other reviews about the carseat getting jammed happens when the carseat is not lifted vertically (if you try to pull it towards you before the latches release it will get jammed). I only figured this out after struggling with it once or twice myself, but once you know the issue it is easy to maneuver. <

>Overall, the convenience of moving the kiddo's around in the seat far outways the quirks.

So awesome, I bought two!
Evenflo has been a favorite of mine. Never any problems. I suggest properly reading the manual- which is normally thrown to the side- and doing exactly as the manufacturer suggests. With my first child we bought the Evenflo travel system plus an extra Evenflo carseat for Daddy's car. Since we also have grandparents nearby to watch our child, with a new one on the way, we need to buy another base. No hesitation as to which brand I'm going to buy. We have other brands, but I'm going to go with my first choice since I haven't had any problems.
