Graco My Ride 65 Car Seat - Sonata

I've only had this carseat for a few days but it's great. My daughter is 10 months old and is very comfortable sitting and sleeping. Lots of padding and I love how big it is, even though a few people say it's too big. Having 2 cupholders is great and the price was very reasonable. I would recommend this seat for anyone!

I ordered this product over the phone after spending hours and hours researching car seat safety ratings, personal use ratings, etc. My baby is 5 months old and almost 20 lbs, so she needed something other than her infant carrier. I was so excited to get this seat! I immediately got it out of the box to check it out. I was surprised to find "feet" on the bottom of the seat that need to be locked under the seat when rear facing, I was not too wild on that but gave the seat a chance because I read great reviews. So I adjusted the straps and put my baby in and out several times to get them just right. Then I went to install it in my vehicle....(I have a '08 Ford Explorer and we also have another child in a front facing seat so they are on opposite sides). This seat is so huge, I could not get it to fit in my truck unless I had my passenger seat all the way forward. I then wanted to see how it would fit forward facing for future use because I really thought I would like this seat, again, too big. No leg room for a forward facer....or the person in the front passenger seat. So tomorrow I am taking it to my local store to exchange it. I was so disappointed :(

Bought this carseat yesterday for my 8 month old and I love it! I previously had the Safety 1st alpha omega elite and it was too big for my car, it would not recline all the way back unless my knees were in the dash (as I am 5'7 and drive a Mazda cx-7) and her head would hang down when she fell asleep but in this car seat she looks so comfortable she fell asleep almost immediately after getting in it yesterday and this morning! If anyone is looking to buy a convertible car seat I am definitely recommending this one for sure!

The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is simply because it does seem a little big. Compared to my son's Graco Sport carseat sitting next to it - it's huge. But really, aren't most carseats classified as 'convertible' kinda on the bulky side? This was an awesome carseat to transition my 11 month old little girl into! She's 21 pounds and proud as can be to be in a 'big girl' seat. She's able to sleep without her head looking crazy cockeyed and the placement of the cup holders is the best! I installed it myself in our van in a matter of 10 minutes. We will be replacing my son's carseat with this one in the Bartlett pattern. I would confidently recommend this seat to any friend. Best of all - it wont cost you and arm and a leg!

I love this car seat. I tried to save money and by the Graco ComfortSport first, but ended up using it as a second car seat and buying the Graco Myride. My daughter looks so cozy in her seat. It has a natural recline, so when she falls asleep her head doesn't fall forward. I love it! Great Buy

I LOVE this car seat. I bought it when my 12 month old outgrew her infant seat & I am so happy that we chose to go with this one. It is super comfy & she sleeps easily in it. The "wings" on the sides come out far enough where her head doesn't flop to the side if she falls asleep. The seat is very cushy & comfy. I love the straps & the don't get tangled like on some cheaper seats. Yet this seat isn't super expensive which is a definite plus for us! In fact I just purchased another one in a different color for my 2yr old son. The absolute only downside I could see is if you have a small car it might be a bit bulky for it. We have a minivan & it fits nicely. Anyway, I highly recommend this seat & wouldn't chose another now that we've found this one!

I love everything about this carseat. It is easy to get my 10 month old in and out of, She seems to be very comfortable in it. And its easy to adjust the straps as she grows.

I read and read the reviews for this car seat and thought it would be just perfect for my 2yr old. She was having the problem of when she fell asleep her heard was constantly flopping around so this car seat seemed like the one for us!! Except it lays back wayyyy to much for a child her age, it reclines more like an infant seat constantly. I was so excited to put her in it but she was frustrated! She was constanly trying to sit up more not to mention this seat is so much higher than other car seats and the sides come out so far she couldn't even see her other sisters in the backseat with her, which was to bad they all love playing with each other. My 8yr old daughter could barely see her when she would lean all the way forward to see her. So my opinion on this car seat is I think a baby is perfect for this seat and if it doesn't have any other siblings and its still young. But for us we went back and bought the Alpha omega and we just love it!!!

I love this car seat. It works Well in my honda element and my husbands nissan frontier. We down sized to a nissan sentra and it still fits very well. only in the middle and one child. if we have another any time soon we will need to get something that takes up less space. i find that all graco chest clips were easy to get off almost to easy so that my at the time 11 month old was unbuckling it. so what we did was buy an eddie bauer chest clip and put it on. it fits great and works well. the best part is my daughter now 14 months can not unbuckle it.

the straps are very easy to adjust, and the when she grows all we have to do is take it out adjust the straps in the back and put it back it. easy process. the pattern is so cute too. it fits our little girl.

my only problem is that maybe its reclined alittle too much.

My baby loves the car seat, its very comfy and soft. The car seat straps CAN be adjusted through the back parts of the car seat. This is a great quality car seat with a great price.I love the design too. A++++ in my book :)
