Graco Nautilus LX Harnessed Booster Car Seat, Group 1/2/3 (approx. 1 to 12 Years, 9-36 kg), Steeple Gray

Product Information

The ability to instantly adjust the 5-point harness between children makes this a good choice as a ‘second seat’, either in a parent’s second car, or a childminder or a grandparent. Adjusting the harness straps is a breeze - when you adjust the headrest for taller children the shoulder straps rise upwards with the headrest. The recline option on the Nautilus is easy to facilitate by pulling on the red handle under the seat, but sadly it doesn’t appear to make any difference at all.

I'm very impressed with the clever little extras like the cupholder and the storage compartments on each side of the seat - it's so parent-friendly and child-friendly.

She is able to see out the windows where on a booster seat she struggled and I felt she was a lot safer.

I’m familiar with both, but my family has recently been putting this Nautilus Elite through its paces. I needed two hands each time I fastened it and I think with an uncooperative child, or a tantrum brewing, it might turn into a two-person job to get your little one strapped in. The fabric looks nice but feels cheap compared to the competition, and there isn't much padding for comfort. If your budget is tight, the Chicco KidFit is less expensive and earned better scores in every metric, including crash test results.And the biggest parent-friendly element has to be the fact that the cover comes right off and is machine washable - as a parent of kids who suffer from travel sickness, I can tell you how much you will appreciate that at times !

Last time Esme fell asleep in the Nautilus, her head was flopping about so much, she simply couldn’t enter into a deep nap. Our testers didn't care for the flap of material in the middle of the seatback or the awkward angle of the armrests. Graco’s Nautilus Elite car seat offers value for money if you’re going to use it as a group 2/3 seat with the occasional need for a group 1 car seat. The chest (g) sensor on the crash test dummy recorded 46 g, where the maximum allowed is 60 g, and the lower the results, the better. p>To access finance with Payment Assist, you’ll need to have a web enabled device with you at point of purchase.

Many parents are unsure whether they have threaded the seatbelt properly and this car seat makes it easy.

The head support and recline handle are both really easy to adjust one-handed which is great for parents who constantly seem to be juggling a million baby and child-related objects ! Puneet: The adjustable headrest has five different height positions and it is quite easy to manoeuvre with just one hand. I’ve reviewed and used a number over the years and it’s something I just don’t like to compromise on. to 12 years old or weighing between 9-36kg, the Nautilus LX Group 1/2/3 Harnessed Booster is a 2-in-1 convertible car seat that adapts to your growing child and is the last car seat you will ever need. Love this chair, we wanted something that was safe and easy to use and we were recommended this one at halfords.This product has the appearance of a high-quality seat, but when you look deeper, it starts to lose some of its luster. An accommodating headrest lets you quickly adjust the height of the headrest with one-hand and three recline positions lets your little one rest comfortably on long trips. My daughter has plenty of room to be comfortable giving me no reason to have to take the back off making it in to a booster. It gives me complete peace of mind that it is safe, at the same as my toddler being comfortable and happy sat in it, that certainly makes a long trip alot more bearable!
