We have two vehicles in our household, which means we also have two car seats for our son. Having the second seat makes life easier when we have a change to our routine. For example, my wife was recently sick which meant I needed to take my son to school. With the extra seat in my car, we were able to head out right away without having to fumble with transitioning the seat from one car to the other.
It is also handy to have an extra seat when my son has a friend over. Having the extra seat gives us the freedom to take the kids to the park without having to ask the parent to leave their own car seat behind. This past week, we had a bit of a curve ball when we watched a friend’s 3-year-old daughter. She was too small to use the booster seat that my son and his friends used.
Evenflo had sent the Advanced Transitions 3-in-1 Booster Car Seat for our family to test out and the timing worked out really well. The Advanced Transitions car seat has a really smart design that lets you transition between three different modes of use. If you have an infant, the Transitions 3-in-1 works as a harness booster. In the case of our toddler guest, we used the seat as a high back booster. I later switched it to the no back booster mode for my son to use. With the different modes, you can transition the seat to accommodate children ranging from 22 to 110 pounds.
Our case is a bit unique because we are using the Advanced Transitions 3-in-1 to accommodate whatever size child happens to be in the backseat that day. For most people, the Evenflo Advanced Transitions seat will be a smart choice because of the economics. You can just transition the seat to adapt as your child grows. The seat even has separate comfort layers that you can adjust, so your child is always comfortable no matter what their size.
When we used the seat as a harness booster, we found it was relatively painless to get the seat installed. I’d like to attribute that to my years of parenting experience, which includes installing car seats multiple times. But I think the seat’s quick connectors and latch guides should get some of the credit. Evenflo did a nice job with the design to make the installation process simple.
Most importantly, the Advanced Transitions 3-in-1 is safe. It was designed and tested for structural integrity at energy levels approximately 2X the federal crash test standard. It was side impact tested and meets or exceeds all applicable Federal Safety Standards. As an added bonus, it has a sporty cup holder to keep your child’s juice box safe as well.
If you are anything like our family, the Evenflo Advanced Transitions 3-in-1 is a great car seat to have so that you can accommodate any sized child in your family. And if you are looking for an economical choice, the Advanced Transitions 3-in-1 is a smart choice because it will save your the trouble of having to buy a new seat whenever your child grows.
Evenflo® is taking extended use and comfort to the next level with the introduction of the Advanced Transitions 3-in-1 car seat. Visit Evenflo.com for more information.
