Well not long after we found out we were pregnant, and in all seriousness we could have been using this carseat for my daughter who is going to be 3 on Sunday.
When we were given the opportunity to review one of these carseats I was all over it. I was asked if I wanted to review the Air Infant Carseat or the Complete Air Protect Convertible Carseat. I immediuately asked my husband what he thought. we chose the Convertible Carseat, mainly because we could use this one also as a rear facing carseat.
I was so excited when I came home and it was sitting on my front porch. I was so excited, that I tore it out of the box and immediately started to investigate it and look at it and then took the convertible carseat we had in my car and replaced it with this one.
Let me give you some info about the carseat:
Air Protect™ Technology is the most innovative safety feature ever offered in a car seat. It is a technology that protects our children at their most vulnerable – the head.
Through the precise release of air, Air Protect™ shields children from side impact intrusion and immediately reduces crash forces at the most critical spot: around a child’s head. Air Protect™ does this by extending ride-down, the amount of time it takes to slow a child’s movement in a crash.
The carseat was very easy to install and certainly very sturdy. Actually it was quite impressive. The first thing I noticed was many of the convertible carseats feel like they don't have much of a backing and I always wondered how it was even comfortable for your children to sit there long enough. But this carseat, it was comfortable, Sister E even sat in it before I took it out to the car and was impressed with it.
Here are some facts:
- The Complete Air car seat has Air Protect side impact technology cushions
- Complete Air can be used for infants 5 to 40 pounds/19-40 inches {Rear Facing}. {Front-facing} it can be used by Infants and Toddlers that are 22-50 pounds/ 34-45 inches.
- Complete Air is available in two color choices Mckenna or Harvest
- Revolutionary Side Impact Technology-The Complete Air revolutionary side impact protection drastically reduces side impact crash forces to the head
- The Complete Air Car Seat is the 2nd model in the United States with a rear facing 40 lb. weight limit.
I have three children, and I drive a car (no I don't drive a van, I'm not there yet...don't think I will be for a while. We want a 4th child, but no time soon, but I'm not ready for that van. Nope, not me.) So, I have the convertible carseat to one side of the carseat, then an infant carseat in the middle and then I have my oldest on the other side. I must tell you, there is no problem with the three girls fitting in the back seat and there is enough room. I love the carseat for the simple ease of it. My car however, makes it hard with not having the bars underneath the seat to install, but it is still easy. Now my mom has taken my daughter and used the carseat in her car and her cars has the bars and I can't tell you how fast I can install this carseat in her car and how it is securely in the car. I was just so impressed. It also is very easy to remove. I LOVE IT. I really can't tell you how much I love it.
While I do not use this for my infant yet, I am using it for my almost 3 year old and we are OVERLY IMPRESSED. WE LOVE IT, and you will too!

Thanks for the chance to win this, Shannon! I would love to be entered for this! I fell in love with this at our local Target, but am trying to save up to buy it for our son. We love his Safety 1st car seat he is in right now! Just wish he wasn't growing like a weed and almost too long for it already! :)
Also, I'm so new to this blogging stuff.. wasn't real certain on the entry instructions. I am already a FB fan of yours, receive your emails and I'm also a fan of Safety 1st. Do I need to post something on yours and Safety 1st walls as well for more chances to win?

Watched video and learned that the head portion of the car seats are not actual air bags that explode/open on impact...instead it is just filled with air to protect and at impact it protects the head and slowly releases the air inside the pouches. LOVE! :)

I learned that the technology used in the seat is so important because side impact crashes are the most deadly for small children. I would have thought with all the rear-facing/forward-facing debate, front impact would be the worst. Good to know!!!

I'm a follower of your blog. I went to the Safety 1st site but, honestly, there is nothing that I haven't already read half a dozen times. I love this carseat! Since I can't tell you something I learned, let me tell you the two things I love the most about this seat (and why I hope I win it): this seat will rear-face a child to 40 lbs. My 2.5 year old is 31 pounds and just about to outgrow his current carseat (which only rear-faces to 33 lbs), after reading about the benefits of extended rear-facing, I'm hoping to keep him rear-facing until his 4th birthday - this seat would allow me to do that. I also love that the harness can adjust from the front instead of being rethreaded - that means that I can install the carseat for my 2.5 year old (rear-facing) and my 7 month old can use seat with just a quick slide of the harness.

I watched the video and all I can say is, "Wow!" I sure hope I never get into a crash, because I never want my children to be flung around their carseats like that. If I do ever get into a side-impact crash I sure hope my children are in a seat like the Complete Air that will help shield their heads from the impact.
