Hi! Is there a video for how to ensure your child is strapped in properly after successful installation for rear-facing mode?

[@safeintheseat]

Harnessing in this seat rear-facing is the same as the rest of the seats. I have 2 videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaDCfqqkprKfppo and kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqPMd2xrg86DlaM

[@bizznessify]

First time Dad here. I followed. your very helpful instructions and everything was completed correctly. The base is extremely secure and not moving at all but when we put the seat in it wiggles pretty heavily in the locked position . Is this normal and if so, why do manufacturers make it this way?

[@safeintheseat]

It is normal. Any seat that is attached to a base will wiggle some. The only way to keep it from wiggling is to not have a separate base. The car seats are attached to the base in a way that makes them removable with one squeeze of a handle, so it cannot be too complicated.

[@meandlevlogs]

Just bought this car seat! Thank you so much for the information!!

[@safeintheseat]

Glad it was helpful!

[@marissacoronel]

Is there a video or anything show how to get the seat in the proper recline rear facing? My son’s seat indicator ball won’t get in the black zone all the way?

[@safeintheseat]

[@jaykeilai]

I just got this seat and am thrilled that I don't need to tweak my back to get my kiddo in and out. The base appears to have very little give but the seat itself has a decent amount of wiggle when it's locked into the base - is that normal?

[@safeintheseat]

That is normal!

[@jaykeilai]

@@safeintheseat thanks for the reassurance! I assumed it was by design for shock absorption but it did make me nervous 😅 is this looseness similar in other models of rotating car seats?

Wow, thanks!

[@justicerichards968]

Such a helpful video. Quick question- I am struggling to figure out how/if I can adjust the buckle. It pokes into my son’s thighs and I just can’t figure out how to adjust it. do you have any suggestions?

[@safeintheseat]

The car seat manual shows you how to adjust the buckle. Moving it to the next slot may help.

[@Arizonayst]

Thank you. So clear to understand

[@safeintheseat]

You are welcome!

[@LoveNeverFails138xox]

My husband’s truck has inflatable seatbelts and we have this car seat. What do I do?

[@safeintheseat]

The middle seat should have a normal seat belt, so you can install it there. Or you can install the seat using the lower anchors until the child is 30 pounds for rear-facing or 35 pounds for forward-facing. Otherwise, you will need a new car seat.

[@sandramorales2820]

Hi I just got my seat today and installed it the base does not move at all but the seat wiggles a little bit is that normal ?

Yes!

[@AshleySkelley]

Can you use a towel or upholstery mat under the base to protect the car interior?

Evenflo allows a single-layered towel or the Evenflo brand mat

[@toridaddario764]

We just installed ours yesterday and love it!!! Thankful i read the manual because my husband installed it while i was naptrapped and did not put the top tether strap on at first so I’m happy i double checked 😅

[@NicoleAshley-om7ho]

For optional pillows, are there 3 pieces? Head and 2 body pillows? Or, is it just the top body pillow that can be removed?

[@safeintheseat]

There is a head pillow and a body pillow on this version. Either can be used/removed anytime rear-facing.

[@NicoleAshley-om7ho]

Thank you. The body pillow is 2 pieces of fabric//padding, right?

[@CatherineGault]

My car seat will not rotate all tge wat around. It only goes to the half way points or facing backwards only. Is there something we are doing wrong in order to get it to rotate to forward facing or for it to rotate all the way around? The instructions are hard to understand and nothing from them works. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[@safeintheseat]

Yes, you need to change the recline in order to rotate it fully.

[@rainaimaging4818]

hi, this was a great video, I have tried to find the answer to my question on the evelflo site and can tfind it. I have the revolve 360 extend, we recently switched my grandadughater to forward facing, and I had no issues. I took the seat out the other day for some much needed cleaning and I cant get it to go forward facing, and it definetly doen not go 360 now, any ideas on what I did?

[@safeintheseat]

It has to be on a certain recline to turn forward-facing. If that doesn't work, you can do a free video chat with Evenflo: evenflo.appointlet.com/

[@imjustalittleghost6359]

I love this car seat and really want it, but I keep hearing the sensor safe buckle is really easy for children to unlatch. Did you find that to be the case?

It is easy to undo for some kids, yes.

[@six16th]

Are the rotating car seats good for the middle seat in particular?

[@safeintheseat]

It depends on the vehicle, some vehicles have super narrow seats and none of them are going to work well there.

[@safeintheseat]

Nope! You can find all of our recommended seats here: safeintheseat.com/sits-recommended-car-seats/

[@ErinBornemann]

Help!!! I drive a 2024 Pilot. The seat belts have that section of “extra material” and for the life of me, I cannot seem to position it in a way that is out of the way of the locking arm. I’ve scooted the base both right and left and it’s still in the way. What can I do?

[@safeintheseat]

If you have already tried moving the base each way to get that part of the seat belt out of the locking arm, the seat may be incompatible with the vehicle.

[@ErinBornemann]

@@safeintheseat bummer. That’s what I was afraid of. Can the extra material be anywhere within the belt path? I know it can’t be in the two sections where either side of the arms come down, but what about on either sides of the arms?

[@JacobSeelinger]

After installing the base an it being super tight and not moving we installed the seat it self but it seems a bit wobbly when locked in place is that normal

[@safeintheseat]

Yes

[@sineadrousseau9123]

We have an older model car and the seatbelts do not lock. So I must use a locking clip correct? Where does that go?

[@safeintheseat]

I have a video of how to use a locking clip. Make sure you get the locking clip from the manufacturer. They will send you one for free. Most of the ones on Amazon are fakes and will not hold up in a crash. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJm9hXd4Z7J-l5Y&pp=ygUdbG9ja2luZyBjbGlwIHNhZmUgaW4gdGhlIHNlYXQ%3D

[@ashleykorthals7111]

How many recline positions does it have rear facing. I feel like I only have two and the black ball isn’t perfectly in either section.

It has 4 recline options for rear-facing. If you have trouble getting it into one of the zones, you can contact Evenflo for a free video chat. evenflo.appointlet.com/

[@dalee_hallmark]

Hello! For the smaller head pillow, is there a certain age or size requirement to remove it? Or is it optional always?

[@safeintheseat]

Optional always. We always remove the head pillow, even for newborns. It tends to just push the head forward

[@maudepoitras8066]

Hi ! Does this car seat fits in a Tesla model 3? Thank you!

[@safeintheseat]

It does not work forward-facing due to the non-removable forward tilting headrests. Check out our list of seats here and look for one that says it works well with non-removable headrests like Nuna Rava for example: safeintheseat.com/sits-recommended-car-seats/

[@almakeuppp4186]

Is it always necessary to use the tether? I want to use 2 of these toguether in a new suv but 1 in the middle and the seat doesn’t have this thing to lock it

You should still have plenty of room. Play with the insert in or out and adjusting straps that way

[@lizpolomsky9484]

When i rotate my seat and it is successfully in the “lock” position and green, it still moves a tiny bit side to side. Is this normal and happens to yours too? As long as it’s green I should be ok right?

[@safeintheseat]

It's normal. As long as it's green, it's good

[@apendol1]

So you are using the top tether anchor but not additional lower anchors, correct? Just routing the seat belt through the belt path?

[@safeintheseat]

Correct. Vehicle seat belt through the belt path and then too tether connected to designated spot

[@emimaccabe6377]

We have this seat and love it! This is a great video to help with install ❤

[@safeintheseat]

[@dariantoland6284]

Two questions: do you use either the latch anchors or the seatbelt with the tether anchors… or both if you have the option? Second question. The base is secure but the seat seems very wiggly!? Normal? Thank you.❤

[@safeintheseat]

You can install the seat with the lower anchors and top tether OR the seat belt and top tether. Evenflo recommends that you do the seat belt and top tether installation as the lower anchor installation can only be used until the child is 30# for rear-facing or 35# for forward-facing. The seat is a little wiggly; it's normal.

[@chelseasnyder9465]

Thank you, I came here looking for answers on this too! The base is tight but the seat rattles when no one is in it and this seems concerning. Also my son looks super bunched up and almost like the seat forces him into a C position instead of being able to have upright posture.. any recommendations for the padding? We took out the infant inserts, he’s just over two. Wanted to love this seat but so far it hasn’t seemed like a great fit.

[@oliviaemer5405]

When we install the base, there is less than one inch of movement when we test it. However once we add the seat, it feels like it’s moving back and forth a lot more than an inch when we shake it. Is that normal?

[@safeintheseat]

Yes this is normal

[@ksaifiwalid9915]

Hi. Thanks for this. I wasn’t able to get the black ball in the black zone as my daughter is 12 kg. It’s at the end of the black zone and already at start of white zone. Any advice ?

[@safeintheseat]

You can contact Evenflo and ask if it's ok to use the white zone

[@jessicafrc91]

After installation, it feels the car seat is not secure. If I move it with my hands, meaning, push it, it moves. Not sure how secure is this 360 rotational thing with the base

[@safeintheseat]

Only check where the seat belt is coming through. As long as it doesn't move more than 1", it is installed tightly. It will move everywhere else.

Hi, thank you for providing us with such an informational video! I’m currently in search for a swivel seat and stuck between this seat and the Graco turn2me. Do you (or any viewer that owns) know by any chance if this would fit next to a Graco snug ride 35LX? Thank you again in advance!

[@safeintheseat]

The Graco Turn2Me is 1" narrower than this one. But usually, if you have a swivel seat next to another seat, the swivel function is unusable because it needs space to turn.

[@melaniearagon2508]

Thank you so much for your reply, I will keep this in mind :)

[@BloodRedeemed]

Does this also use the LATCH system, and can you use both LATCH and the seatbelt?

[@safeintheseat]

You cannot use the lower anchors and the seat belt at the same time. The preferred installation method is the seat belt with the top tether anchor

[@BloodRedeemed]

@@safeintheseatthank you for the reply! I thought to myself, “why would the seatbelt be recommended over LATCH”, and so I looked it up and found that the LATCH system has a recommended weight limit of 65 pounds total. I had no idea! Thank you thank you for sharing the manufacturer’s recommendations!

[@itsDianneAye]

Such a helpful and informative video- thank you!!! Can you provide more info on the difference and ease of deep cleaning the sensor safe model versus the quick-clean model? Thanks so much!

The version in this video does not have the Quick Clean Cover. If yours has it, there will be a tag on each side of the upper portion of the seat that is black with an orange image. The zipper will be near that tag.

[@joshuacarroll8409]

How do you adjust the recline to be most upright for forward facing when it has to be most reclined to rotate?

[@safeintheseat]

Thanks for watching! Both are easy to install. The Revolve Extend has a much taller harness height, so if the child is very tall, go with that one. But if you have a vehicle with non-removable headrests, the Nuna Rava is better in that instance. Nuna Rava is also more compact front to back if that's a consideration

Also, do you notice any difference in fabric comfort between the green FR free and the regular fabric of the gold models?

[@britt10394]

I’ve always locked the seatbelt and tightened before closing the lock. Is it mandatory to lock the seatbelt after instead?

[@vanessa94boymomma]

Can you use both latch and car lap belt??

[@safeintheseat]

You can install it with the seat belt and the top tether OR with the lower anchors and top tether. Evenflo prefers that you use the seat belt and top tether. It's easier to install that way.

[@awhite2786]

My car manual says a rear facing car seat can only be installed using the lower latch and the top tethers are only used for a forward facing car seat. Am i unable to use this in rear facing mode?

[@safeintheseat]

Most vehicle manuals aren't going to show the use of top tethers with rear-facing seats because it's still very uncommon in the US. But it's allowed

[@catherinecarroll7155]

Even if you have a lock off, do you lock the shoulder belt if you have a locking retractor? I have the Graco Triogrow, and the seat is tight and not moving an inch, but the shoulder belt isn’t locked with the retractor, just with the locking arm.

[@charlenedutra1549]

If your shoulder bet doesn’t have the lock feature (like in cars built before 1996), then I don’t think it’s necessary , but when in doubt, check your manual! If the car seat base doesn’t move more than 1in in any direction, then it should be fine

[@safeintheseat]

The Triogrow does not require you to lock the seat belt. The Revolve does require you to lock it.

[@alissabritto6140]

What would you consider as too tall for front seat passengers? Dad is 6 feet and I’m 5’8”. That’s the only thing making me nervous about this seat

[@safeintheseat]

Would depend on the vehicle. If you have a small car like a Corolla, this would not be a good choice. If you have a mid-size car/suv or larger, it's likely ok behind you

I’m curious why the LATCH system is not recommended?

[@safeintheseat]

If you install with the lower anchors, you can only use the seat until 30 pounds rear-facing and 35 pounds forward-facing. If you install with the seat belt, you can install it once and use it in both rear and forward-facing modes without having to reinstall the seat.

i have the regular evenflo extend, not the gold, is the install going to be any different?

[@safeintheseat]

The installation for all models of the Revolve is exactly the same

[@MalloryDeHoog]

Does it work with headrests that don’t move? Does the tether just sit off to the side?

[@safeintheseat]

It usually works well. In a few vehicles, we've had a hard time swiveling it into the forward-facing position if the headrests tilt very far forward.

[@robinchristensen6978]

Does it have to be in the fully reclined position to swivel?

[@charlenedutra1549]

It can swivel from rear facing to the side at any recline level. It will not swivel all the way to forward facing unless it is reclined all the way. You can adjust the recline with the seat in the rear facing position OR when it is swiveled to the side. So that’s nice that it doesn’t HAVE to be in a certain position to change the recline. But it must be fully reclined to swivel all the way to forward facing.

Is this a okay car seat if parents and child are pretty tall?

[@lainiechoy7211]

It’s going to depend on the vehicle and bow far back the front passengers have their seats. It’s not a super compact seat

[@TheShizzzDavis]

What is the gold? Is it worth getting over the non-gold?

[@safeintheseat]

The gold version has a lifetime warranty, Evenflo will replace the seat in the event of a crash, and it has the sensorsafe chest clip that alerts you if the child was left in the vehicle after it has been turned off, if the temp is too hot/too cold, if the chest clip is unbuckled, or if the child has been in the car seat for too long.
