Graco Contender Slim Convertible Car Seat, West Point, Space-Saving Design, Lightweight and Compact

I am thrilled with our Graco car seat—it has truly been a lifesaver for outings with our baby. Installation was incredibly easy thanks to the InRight™ LATCH system and clear, step-by-step guides. It feels rock-solid and secure the first time you click it in.My baby is super comfortable in it: the removable infant insert offers great support, and the multi-position recline makes long rides much more relaxed. The 5-point harness adjusts smoothly and locks in securely—no fussing or loose straps.The cover is easy to remove and machine-washable, which is essential these days! Plus, the contoured shell and side-impact protection give me confidence every time we hit the road.I highly recommend this Graco car seat for any parent looking for a safe, reliable, and kid-friendly option—a solid investment in peace of mind and comfort.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Super light weight car seat! Traveled with 2 of these & it was soooo much easier. Fits perfect on the plane (seat) as well- which was a game changer flying with my toddler. Creates a noticeable difference in the backseat of our Tesla Model Y. Size:Slim great for backseat of Tesla Model Y (I have 2 in the back)Value for money:Great price! Not super luxe but perfect basic seat and very light weight which is nice for traveling.

Bought this as our secondary carseat/travel carseat and it gets the job done. Its definitely a little shorter than our primary carseat, so our rear facing child does look like he has a little less leg room than he usually does, but overall it is lightweight and gets the job done!

Honestly an amazing car seat especially for the price. We purchased this for our Europe trip as we didn’t want our expensive seat to get banged up. Our baby lovedddd this seat. He was so comfortable and it fit perfect in the rental. We are now using it as our regular car seat. It is easy to clean.

As a former child passenger safety technician (one day I will recertify!), I am verrryyyy picky about my car seats. I am also a childcare provider so I frequently need to fit as many kids into the car as possible. After settling on a FF Radian for my 5 year old, and snagging a narrow backless booster at the store for a first grader, I just needed a good, narrow, RF seat. Wrestled with the radian in RF mode... was not super thrilled, especially since we didn't need the super high weight limit for the children that will be riding in it. My son's convertible was a Britax Boulevard, so I tried that in the three across situation and it was way too wide.After a search of the net for another convertible that is narrow and user friendly, I saw this seat recommended, checked out some reviews and ordered. I'm happy to say that it's absolutely perfect for what we need, fits in a three across with the other two seats I need to use regularly, is easy to use, and the adjustable headrest means I don't have to rethread the harness if I use it for different sized kiddos.My only critique of this seat is that it is naturally very reclined, which is good for younger babies but sometimes irritates RF toddlers. For me, this is a pretty minor issue that I mitigated by installing the seat carefully to achieve the desired angle, but I can see how it could be a turn off for some people. I also don't know that I would use the seat forward facing at all, primarily because it's unlikely to fit for long once the rear facing limits are reached, but for our purposes (needing a versatile, narrow RF convertible) this is perfect.

Great carseat!

Love not having to bend and lean in. Easy to install and adjust height. Have used back and forward.

Lightweight, easy install and narrow. I have 2 one for each car. It is easy to move from car to car and easy to break apart to clean.
