Client Evaluations

This is in fact the second Graco My Ride 65 automobile seat we've bought. We had one particular for my baby from 4 months old- 11 months old when we were in a auto accident. A vehicle hit us head on and then we were hit from behind by a dump truck. The auto was totaled but with my child in this seat, he came away with out even a bruise or bump to show for it! I immediately decided to replace it with the similar seat that protected my kid so properly.
Besides being so safe, I appreciate that my kid will be in a position to fit in it for such a lengthy time. He loves sitting in it and it appears really comfortable for him. The straps are definitely effortless to adjust also, which is terrific when working about winter coats and such. It is a rather huge seat and may not fit well in little vehicles, but we adore ours!

I purchased MyRide 65 as a secondary seat in my husband's automobile. I honestly don't like it. I also have a Britax and it really is so significantly less difficult.
These are my issues: The strap adjustment for the child's shoulders is located in such a way that when it is rear-facing, it is extremely difficult to tighten. You need to pull a strap by the child's feet downward and your automobile seat is in the way! I feel uncomfortable every single time I put her in this seat, I fear that I do not have her tightened in adequately.
Also if you have any troubles with hand strength the button to release the shoulder straps is tremendously challenging to depress. I have carpal tunnel and it really is a bear. As the child grows, shoulder strap adjustment should be accomplished with the seat removed from the auto. Do not use this seat if you want to use it for children of various sizes interchangably. It's as well considerably of a discomfort. In the Britax there is a round knob on the side you just turn to adjust the strap height. Straightforward Peasy.
I really feel the angle of the Myride 65 is as well vertical. When my daughter was a newborn her chin touched her chest way more in this seat than the Britax. My daughter has greater difficulty sleeping in this seat on long road trips due to it's more vertical position and lighter padding.
All in all, If I had been to do it all over again I am glad I didn't obtain this seat as our main automobile seat.
