The InfiniteSlide harness lets you easily adjust the harness. | Infinite Slide Harness Adjustment
The Harbortown meets or exceeds all U.S. safety standards, making it a smart, reliable choice. One of its key safety features is the InfiniteSlide harness system which allows you to change the harness height by simply sliding the red tabs up and down. This system also does not require re-threading, saving you time and decreasing the chance of improper positioning. Additionally, the 5-point harness easily tightens with a quick turn on the TensionRight knobs on each side of the seat. Proper Positioning for a Safe, Comfortable Ride
Proper positioning of your child in the car seat is extremely important, not only for his or her comfort, but also to ensure optimum safety and protection. That's why the Harbortown has a multi-position recline and removable body pillows to surround baby in soft support. Two buckle straps accommodate growing children by being easy to adjust, and the EPP foam liner helps absorb energy to maintain proper positioning in the case of sudden or jarring movement. There's even a removable, flip-down cup holder to hold your child's favorite drink in a convenient location that they can easily access. This holder also folds out of the way when not in use. The Harbortown also offers perks for parents, including a machine washable pad that's a snap to remove and clean. Easy to install and adjust, the Harbortown features a parent-friendly design that's durable, reliable and, most importantly, safe. About Evenflo

 Great car seat without spending Britax bucks June 5, 2008
38 out of 38 found this review helpful
This is a great car seat. I purchased this one about 6 weeks ago when my son (child #3) outgrew his infant car seat at only 9 months old. I had previously purchased an earlier model of this car seat for my first child, and sadly our car was stolen with the car seat inside. I liked the first one I had, and I like this one even more. Here are the key points:
*It seems to be extremely comfortable for the child. It's big and cushy. My son likes it. My daughter did, too.
*It really seems to offer a lot of protection with its big seat that kind of curves around the child. On the down side, if you plan on moving the seat around a lot (as another reviewer mentioned), it is quite heavy. But the truth is, it's not designed to be portable--most convertible car seats are not. And if you have a small car, you might have trouble making it fit (I don't know this for sure because with three preschool children, I have a minivan).
*It is easy to install. I have installed a fair share of car seats, and this one is one of the better ones.
*It is very easy to adjust the straps. You can adjust the height of the shoulder straps from the front. How wonderful is that--it is such a hassle to rethread straps like you need to in many car seats that sometimes you can be tempted to leave them on a setting your child has outgrown for a while. You can also adjust the tension of the straps from the front very easily. You can actually make sure they are tight enough every time regardless of whether your little guy is wearing a sweatshirt and coat or a t-shirt. And if he likes to squirm while you put him in, you can loosen the straps, fasten him up and then tighten it to a safe tension. No problem at all.
*It is not too expensive. I paid $117 for mine, which is no small amount of money, but it is not as expensive as a Britax. I'm sure the Britax is fine, but I think a lot of people buy them because they are trendy or because they think they have to spend a lot to make sure their kids are safe. The evenflo is a great car seat. And it is much better than some of the cheap brands like the Cosco I have to use when visiting my parents (no padding, difficult to adjust straps, difficult to fasten clips, yuck).
All in all, I think it is a great choice for a car seat if you need or want a convertible.

What a great carseat! I bought this for my 9 month old son after he outgrew the Graco Snugride (loved it too!). It is super easy to install and getting him in and out of it is a breeze. You never have to rethread the straps as the child grows taller because they are easily adjusted even with the child sitting in the seat! I love how the straps tighten with the use of a knob at the base of the seat. My 3 year old has the Alpha Omega Elite and you have to pull the strap in between his legs to tighten the straps. I thought really liked the Alpha Omega Elite until we got the Triumph Advance. Also, washing the carseat cover is a snap...a few hooks to loosen and the whole cover comes off and can be thrown in the washing machine. Our other carseat has to be taken out of the car and almost completely taken apart...what a pain. I actually just boght another Triumph Advance for my 3 year old and retired his Alpha Omega Elite...it just didn't compare! All in all, the Evenflo is easier to install, easier to buckle and unbuckle the kids in, easier to clean, and so much more comfortable!

I love this car seat. The harness never needs threading/rethreading. The straps are easily adjusted with the tension knobs on each side. And the fabric is super soft and comfy. The seat is really cushiony. My 8-month-old son loves it too. The only drawbacks are that it's a little heavy, especially for a little person, and it's bulky. I have a Honda Pilot, and at first it looked too big but I've gotten used to it so now it looks fine. And as long as the seat doesn't end up being moved a lot, then the weight's not an issue. Still...small prices to pay for a great product. I've had the seat for two months now and have never had a problem with it. Some have written about twisted straps, but I have yet to experience that myself. I was really iffy about buying this product online because I like to see and feel certain products before buying, but I don't regret my purchase at all. I am extremely and completely satisfied with this purchase and would definitely buy it again.
The best seat for the money April 7, 2008

This seat was very easy to install. It is very comfortable for my 9 month old. Reclined nicely in the rear facing position. It is very nicely padded. The straps adjust so easily! Just turn the knob to accommodate thicker or thinner clothing. Plenty of growing room. Arrived with a manufacture date of just 1 month ago. Cons: This seat is big and heavy. It would be difficult to use if you plan on switching cars a lot.
Highly rated seat, budget-friendly, and easy to use. May 25, 2008

This seat is very highly rated by car seat techs around the world. It can be comparied to the Britax Marathon without the hefty price point. It is a little wider than most seats, but if you've got the room its no problem. It is very easy to install and is also easy to adjust the harness straps. A great buget-friendly convertible seat!
