LuvLap Joy Convertible Car Seat for Baby & Kids, 0Months to 4 Years, Rearward & forward facing, European ECE R44/04 Safety standard Certified Baby Car Seat, adjustable headrest & harness, Black & Grey

Good Seat but without Isofix and i-size standards.
The first big disappointment is this seat does not have isofix. While most of the new cars are coming up with isofix locks for baby seat it really makes no sense that baby car seat manufacturers are still relying on the seat belts grip which can never be as safe as isofix locks with back buckles. Imported isofix seats are way too expensive so that’s really not a solution. Hope the manufacturers take a note of this reviews.1. Luvlap comfy seat is better and economical considering it serves kids of all age group. From 9 months to 12 year. One should be careful buying car seats for kids above 8 years as depends more on their health and if they can fit comfortably in the car seat. But otherwise it’s s perfect fit for babies 9 months and above. I can say this with personal experience.2. MaterialNot solid but sturdy hollow plastic is used to make the seat strong yet light.3. CushioningCushioning is not that great but will not trouble kids for short journeys.4. DesignDesign is simple yet decent. The long back rest promises it can be used for older kids. Side ear flaps are useful while kids are taking a nap as well incase of an impact. Small thing to notice but can be very helpful at times.5. Suitable for Any CarThese are standard car seats, which can be fixed in any car. Do not worry about your model and car. Big or small its same for all.6. Installation in CarAt the first time it may look a little complex but if you watch a youtube video on how to fix the luvlap comfy car seat, then even the first time installation wouldn’t be that difficult. Basically you use a seat belt to hold the car seat and then car seat has belt to hold your baby/kid.7. Using this seat on Front SeatNo, You cant or let’s say you should not use any kids seat on front seat. Simply because it kills the whole purpose of child safety.8. Boosting Seat Height for KidsBesides providing child safety this car seat also serves as a good seat booster so your kids can see through the car window and enjoy the outer scenes on the way.9. Safety StandardsThis car seat follows European standards ECE R44/04 but it’s 2017 and we customers should demand i-size standards which have been introduced in 2013.10. Reclining positionsIt will recline automatically as per the angle of your car seat, to fit into it perfectly. There are no reclining settings provided. The minimum reclining position is still comfortable and you can see it in the attached picture.Drawbacks- No isofix fitting makes it little less safer.- If you are driving alone specially with toddlers you have to keep an extra eye on the child seat.- If you see the installation video, it shows function of a safety clip for car seat belt but No such safety clip comes with the seat.(minor)Final VerdictIf you own a car and have kids, you must have a child seat for their comfort and safety. You can see hundreds of videos of car crash tests online, the car seat in all types of crash servers really like a shield for kids in the backseat. If it was isofix then the crash impact could have been minimal on the kids body. I bought this comfy model from luvlap because there are isofix belts straps are available online which can be easily used for this particular seat. I am planning to buy another seat very soon. Go get one and make your kids ride easy and enjoyable. Watch my video on youtube and picture for reference.Hope this review would be helpful to you. Thanks for reading this far.

Car seat
I love this luvlap car seat , fit for my baby , Easy to use , light weight and my baby feel comfortable perfect for travelling

A must have car seat
I am using this car seat since my baby was born and its so comfortable and safe, that I can sit with peace of mind. The fabric is cushioned and soft, also utmost safety is taken care of. Best in quality and comfort.

Seller of the safety product itself unconcerned about safety!!
Grouse no 1.Unfortunately i lost/misplaced my user manual. Now I am unable to find one on the company website or its online selling partners like Amazon/flipkart. The company has not bothered to make the most important information readily available (i.e. proper installation of the car seat) . It’s official you tube video does a pathetic job of explaining the do’s and don’ts of proper installation. Numerous studies have found that people usually do not install the car seats properly which defeats the very purpose of the car seats. It’s ironical that a company that sells a product for “safety” does not make any proactive attempts on educating customers or providing customers easily accessible product specific information to ensure product is used as per specifications and guidelines for intended benefits.Comfort: my son who is ~4 yes and around 14kgs found it exciting at first….but after 2-3 hours because of discomfort resists using the seat. Perhaps not very comfortable. One reason possibly is that it is too tight and close near the crotch area. I noticed that the flap where the hooks need to be fastened almost partly comes below the buttocks making it uncomfortable around that area. To me it looks like a design flaw.Quality and safety.Quality of materials used is good. For the value safety levels seem satisfactory (if installed and used properly). One can’t expect isofix level safety for less than half the price.It’s good product if you do not travel frequently with kids. It should serve well on short drives (max upto 4-5) hours if the kid is less than 5 yr old. Will not recommend it for frequent users and those who will be using it on long drives.If the child is sleepy….the head typically bobs around or falls to one side. There are some products available for head restraint but I found nothing that says that if it is ok to use such restraints. Wish if the manufacturer would have invested some time and money in educating it’s customers on do’s and don’ts of using this product.
