Safety issue!! The straps that have clips that clip into the bars in the backseat, the strap tears in half. Not able to get a replacement strap because it would not be safe to replace.
Yes, the carseat was taken out incorrectly, it was taken out by 2 adult women on a girls night out. The strap tore in half, which you can see where it frayed.
Had I gotten into a car accident, there is a very good chance that strap would have tore. We have 3 of these carseats, which now we also use the…

Description
The Graco TriRide 3-in-1 Car Seat helps keep little ones safe from baby to big kid with three modes of use: rear-facing harness (5-40 lbs), forward-facing harness (26.5-65 lbs) and a highback booster (40-100 lbs).
The harness allows you to adjust the height of the headrest and harness in one motion, helping to save you time and ensure your child is properly secured. For infants, removable plush head and body inserts help to keep your baby feeling cradled and comfortable.
Choose the headrest height from 10 positions and adjust the seat to six recline positions for a better installation. LATCH-equipped for simple installation, the easy-to-read level indicator also lets you know it’s installed correctly.
While in belt-positioning booster mode, the integrated harness storage compartment keeps the harness safely stored away. Open-loop belt guides help properly position your vehicle’s seat belt across your child in highback booster mode.
For comfort and convenience, the Car Seat has two easy-to-clean cup holders that keep drinks close at hand, and the seat pad is comfy and machine washable.
The steel-reinforced frame provides strength and durability for years of use. This car seat is also Graco ProtectPlus Engineered to help protect in frontal, side, rear and rollover crashes.

Cheap Styrofoam on head rest
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I like it my baby car seat so much, how my baby girl fit on it, but I am so disappointed discovering the styrofoam in the head rest is cracked when taking to covers to clean it, this car seat has been in my the car I use to go to work that she probably use it a less than a handful of times in the last year, and was ready to move it to the family car so my 1 yr old baby can use it now. More disappointed to see pictures of another user with the same problems and Graco not selling a better quality replacement part so the users don’t lost the investment.

TriRide™ 3-in-1 Car Seat
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I am overall happy with this carseat for the price. I do not love that you need to have a towel rolled up under it in order for it to function properly. I also find that the straps get twisted up easily. These are not huge problems considering the price point, but I'm not sure that I would purchase it again.

UNSAFE CHEAPLY MADE
I’ve bought this seat 3 times and 2 of the 3 have had the foam headrest crack, only lord knows when and for how long my babies have been driving around in an unsafe seat. The foam piece is ridiculously cheap. The only reason I repurchased after the first one broke was because they refused to replace and only gave me a discount to use on another product so thinking it was a fluke I purchased it again. Shame on this company for selling dangerous products!

Love it!

Car seat is very secure and slim so you can still use the middle seat in your backseat. Installation was very easy.

Nice seat, but hard to tighten the straps.
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I got this car seat in September 2025. It is a great car seat in general but the straps are SO HARD to tighten. I have to actually pull the straps from behind the seat while he is buckled in so I can make sure he is actually secured. It is easy to install and he does seem very comfortable in it. I truly wish I could give this a 5 star but unfortunately for the straps, I cannot.

Second Carseat

Our little guy outgrew the carry car seat and this is working perfect for us. He fits nicely in it. It was easy to install.

Something good 😊
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I can honestly say I made a great purchase. This car seat is so comfortable—I think this is exactly the kind of thing I had in mind when I went shopping: something I could adapt as my child grows. It is safe, and I highly recommend it.

Let’s eye up safety for installation, seriously…
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I’m rating this as a 1 because Graco seriously couldn’t pay the few extra cents I’m sure it would’ve cost them to use the ball level indicator on this seat? Instead it’s just a red line that says to “level with the ground”. When it comes to safely installing a car seat this is extremely disappointing. If you’re set on a Graco car seat, opt for the tri ride that’s the same price. Highly disappointing that I’m playing the guessing game when it comes to my child’s safety.

I bought this 3 weeks ago from Target and unfortunately will not be able to return it, though I wish I could. The straps do not tighten enough at all no matter what, and my mom who does daycare and has to take carseat classes agrees it is not safe as I can still fit my fingers underneath after already struggling to tighten for 2+ minutes. My oldest has the triride 3 in 1, and I 100% wish we would’ve gotten that one again over this one as we’ve had no issues with the straps, and it seems there is much more room to grow into it.
