Great seat once I learned the trick for tightening the belt!
Like many reviewers, I was really frustrated with how difficult it is to tighten the seatbelt. I felt like you needed to have the strength of 10,000 people to tighten it. Then I figured out the trick! Once the chest clip and belt are buckled, pull all the slack from around the child's hips essentially tightening the lowest portion of the belt. Lower the chest clip and shoulder strap covers so they are close to the buckle. All the slack is now above the chest clip. Now tighten the strap. It will be so much easier! We shouldn't have to go through all this but once you know the trick, it's not so bad.
Removing the cover to wash it is relatively easy but putting it on is a different story. The cover is secured by small elastic loops strategically placed around the seat. Some of these loops need to be threaded through small holes to reach the fastening hook. Get yourself a crochet hook because otherwise you will be ready to throw the seat away. With the crochet hook, I was able to grab hold of the elastic loop and thread it through the small holes and over the fastening hooks with very little effort.
