Safety 1st Grow and Go installed rear-facing with seat belt

[@sandraluz4009]

3 years from the video and still 100% helpful!!! Safety 1st should send a link to this video in their “manual” that only they understand 😝 thank you!!!

[@lbee8247]

Thank you so much for making this video. As a new grandmother it's been a while since installing a car seat. The video by the car seat company was so complicated and moved quickly on needed details while being specificon obvious steps. Your video was so much better to understand.

[@mlhhusky6899]

So much better than the manufacturers installation video. Good Job!

[@naydavers1]

just got 2 of these the other day. set them up for our 3m old and over night the anchor strap loosened. now the anchor strap and harness wont tighten. Thank you for this video! Im going to try it tonight!

[@analuizaamorim3568]

I really want to thank you from the bottom of My heart for this help. I was struggling trying to figure out how to instal the top tether on a rear sitting and I couldn’t figure out so I ended up installing it as face forward even though my baby turned 6 months old today. I read the manual on my pria max 3in 1 and it said he should be rear sitting until he’s at least 1 year old. I googled installation help for rear sitting for almost a week until I found your video. So thank you, thank you, thank you. Now I am relieved that my baby is safe in a car seat that was installed in the right way for his age, weight and height. Thank you! Couldn’t stop thinking about getting on an accident with him forward sitting and loosing my precious little one, I would never forgive myself. Thank you and God bless you

[@vanessacroman4168]

You child should be rear facing until 2 years of age. Their bones are not developed enough to handle an impact forward facing.

[@vanessacroman4168]

You really should keep them rear facing as long as possible regardless of their legs being bent. Even adults are safer rearfacing. My daughter is 4 and still rear facing

[@vanessacroman4168]

I also can add you to a cpst carseat group. (Child passenger safety technician). I'm do glad your precious babe is back rear facing. You're a great parent ❤

[@wiolettawozniak958]

Fits perfectly rear-facing in our truck, which has a slightly smaller back seats. kzbin.infoUgkx6_FKRYB2ClSPRyjcd8HptiCS3EiQoNX4 Feels as comfy and plush as our Graco Contender carseat.

[@danielleflemmens9663]

Thank you for this video!! I have twins and I was struggling with the directions that came with the car seats! After your video it was 100x easier to put them in!

[@phordguy]

These same instructions are valuable for the Sam club purchased safety 1st everfit dlx "Safety 1st EverFit All-in-One Car Seat". Thank you! There were no instructions in the box and finding them on their vendor website was impossible.

[@AngelasLifeAdventures]

Does it seem to be the same car seat as this one? I'm about to order one.

[@phordguy]

@@AngelasLifeAdventures Yes a couple years ago it was. Haven't bought one since then so I can't say if they are still the same model, sorry.

[@RoxanneCurry]

This is very great instructions for a Grandmom…..I feel better now

[@myeliebailey4828]

Wow this was extremely helpful! I had to help my very angered husband who was using the hooks. I used the towel and middle seat with the belt. It worked perfectly! 😊

[@moniquesimmons3108]

This was the Most helpful video I’ve been able to find for my son’s car seat installation. Thank you

[@kenspearsy7954]

Thank you so much. I have been struggling for nearly an hour with those straps. I appreciate it so much.

[@acarter809]

I just installed this seat last night and i used the small anchors and the seatbelt but still didnt feel it was tight enough. I knew there was something i was missing and did not feel comfortable. Thanks. I'll do the seatbelt tighten trick in the morning. My issue should be over. I was almost ready to return the seat

[@sis9130]

i was struggling trying to install the seat using the bottom hook thingys . this way was wayyyyy easier . thank you!

[@andrewweeks448]

it's such a piece of crap.

[@heatherbramer5574]

I agree. The bottom hooks are not even tight enough strap wise, to offer any sort of support. I’ve never seen hooks be connected like that, and not just two hooks on each side to use and tighten. Crazy to me. I struggled for 15 minutes before I came across this and said ok perfect lol

[@mco7030]

I’ve had this car seat for about 2 year.... and I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve been using it wrong. Just bought another for my youngest and I’m gonna fix them both RN. Thank you!!!!

[@eliezaocasio8748]

I just got this seat for my son! Thank you so much, car seat installation can be so intimidating. We just wanna keep our babies safe. Thanks!

[@jessicawelker1568]

I’ve had this seat for 2 years now & just learned that my car does have seatbelt that locks lol ! Thank you for this

[@tishbeaver4294]

I'm a CPST, and you did a wonderful job explaining! I plan to share your video with clients who own this car seat.

[@alondrafalcon9024]

Just i

[@marissaghost]

Is it okay if the car seat can be pushed “forward”? Like not where the belt path is, but if I push on the back of the car seat it tips forward. Idk if I’m explaining that well or not lol. It doesn’t move side to side, but I can literally tip it over just by pressing on the backrest

[@tishbeaver4294]

@@marissaghost If it’s a rear facing seat and you’re pressing on the top edge/headrest part of the car seat, yes it will always move toward the back of the vehicle because that’s actually how it’s intended to work. The seat can’t go forward (toward the front of the vehicle) in a crash like our bodies would, that’s the beauty of rear facing! So since it can’t physically go forward much it will tip back during a crash and fall back down as it rides down the crash force. Always test for less than 1” of movement AT the belt path, not on the top part of the seat. Let me know if I’m not understanding, please! 🙏❤️

[@X-07creations]

Love this tutorial. This is the only one that really helps ❤

You have no idea how much you have saved me. Thanks so much you rock

[@kw4225]

Thank you just installed a pink one in this method and it worked out perfectly I did not need the towel as it met with the bite of the seat Thank you so much

[@kolleenpollard1770]

Just utilized this to install my son’s car seat. Thank you so much! 🎉

[@matthewrosato7851]

So we aint gonna discuss the factor that the whole "Head" of the seat moves freely? that's safe? like that doesn't seem right at all.

[@juritzihernandez]

This is what I’m wondering too .. and also what about the anchors it comes with do we just not use them?

[@BerthaStockton]

Very straightforward and easy to follow. Thank you very much.

[@jaylc]

Incredible explanation. Bravo.

[@sarahmartinez2240]

Great ! I just ordered a second one and can’t wait to install

[@cathyshirai3780]

best clear concise instructions....thank you, but would appreciate the metal clips installation also..not the seat belt..

[@ch4rl3magn38]

I feel so much better now that I know I correctly installed my carseat. Thank you

[@rhetorically_ray8036]

Thanks so much for taking out the time to make this video. Not all heroes wear capes 👏🏽💛

[@marielamoreno7845]

Great video but just want to double check, so the teether are not necessary? A car seat will do just find?

[@nickannucci9646]

Tried both the anchor and seatbelt method and got them both as tight as I possibly could but somehow it still moves slightly around a inch left and right but not forward and back

[@lizardman1303]

Do u have them both done at the same time because that is not recommended because it’s pulling the seat at differnt angle

[@mom2blessings_sadie]

What is the point of those buckles if we do t use them?

[@NossyDrelich]

Thank you very much! I was wondering how to install this fancy car seat. Very well explained.

[@tiaaunique]

Anchors vs belt why would I choose one over the other ?

[@tiffanydavis589]

Hi Tiaa thank you for your question. This particular car seat manufacturer says to only use one or the other. It probably goes back to crash testing. Most of our U.S. model car seats are crash tested with the seat belt OR anchors. Not both at the same time. Lower anchors were originally designed to be another alternative for caregivers not an additional installation method to the seat belt. It is extremely rare for a car seat manufacturer to allow car seat installation with both the seat belt and the anchors. And we must always follow manufacturer instructions for safety and liability purposes. Also, sometimes I can get a good install with a seat belt but not a good install with lower anchors and vice versa, based on the shape of both the car seat and the vehicle. So I will end up choosing the method in which I got the best installation. Hope this helps.

Yes hi. Some of the convertible seats have a little bar underneath them?? And I’m wondering which way the little bar needs to go with a rear facing seat??

[@moealmak9666]

Thank you finally someone make it looks so simple .

[@tronlorne9328]

You’re explaining things better than the factory video which is useless but my seat is still able to move way over to the side . I’m not sure what to do.

[@claudiagonzalez6435]

I did everything exactly like you showed but my car seat still tilts a bit to the side to where the seat belt clicks in.. how do I fix this??

[@steveoo7481]

Great video, is it ok to use the hooks and seatbelt for added safety? My Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo has an emergency locking seatbelt.

[@victoriaguess9303]

You can only use one or the other.

I saw the other video by her and couldn’t comment but this is God sent !! Mine kept tipping over and I’m hoping I can try this and it works 🙏🏽 Not sure if it’s just my car because it’s so small and cramped in the back seat for such a large car seat

It states in the manual that the line only needs to be level if using it with a child who cannot sit up unassisted yet

So my child is 10 months and I set the car seat to number 2, but when she falls asleep in it her head hangs foward, and that's because she can sit up unassisted so should I just keep it reclined on number 3?

I think in the manual it mentions that you can usually put the incline on 2 once that kid is able to sit up in their own and hold their head up

2 ,or 3 rear facing. Also it states in the manual that the red line ONLY needs to be ground level if the child cannot sit up unassisted yet
