Editorial Review
As many years of research have revealed, the best way to keep your baby safe while riding in the car is to place them in a car seat that has been properly installed, with restraints that have been properly adjusted for a snug fit. The Mighty-Tite car seat belt tightener makes car seat installation easier by allowing you to tighten your vehicle's seat belts and reduce the amount of slack around the base of your baby's car seat. Installation is very easy. After positioning the tightener next to the car seat and fitting your vehicle's seat belt through the included spindle slot, simply ratchet the tightener's handle until the seat belt is snug around the base of the car seat. Removing the belt tightener is also very fast and easy. --Chris Burns

 THIS IS THE BEST BABY GADGET ON EARTH!!!! October 20, 2001

I work at an infant care center and do a lot of babysitting that includes transportation and I own 3 of these ratchets. I can't begin to emphasize the greatness of the Mighty-Tite ratchet. I was taking one of our kids home from school to my house to babysit for "Date Night" one Friday night; I had a Graco base and the child had an Evenflo carrier so we had to switch out the bases. I had told this parent about this wonderful product, but had never gotten a chance to show it to her. I showed her how it worked and how the base would not budge and she was in disbelief at how well it worked. This ratchet gets the seat so tight that I shook the base to show her how tight it was and the base did not budge but my whole car shook. Her husband is a Police Officer and he was impressed! They went out and got one Saturday morning! I don't have kids of my own yet, but I recommend this to everyone I know that does. The peace of mind you have knowing the children traveling with you are secure is so worth the cost. I recommend this product to all of the parents at our facility!! A whole hearted Thank You to the manufacturers, and ToysRUs for carrying it! Don't go another day without one... or two!
A MUST-HAVE February 22, 2002

I got this car seat tightener because my 2000 Explorer does not have tether attachments--ironically, my Jeep Wrangler (a not-so-family car) DOES have tether attachments! It was very difficult to get my son's car seat in tight enough to keep it from really moving around in a crash. I LOVE this product!! If you can get your car seat installed by a certified tech, that's great and it's the way to go. BUT my son's car seat is quite often going back and forth between our car and Grandma's car for Grandma-Fun-Days. Are we going to go to a tech every time we move the car seat back and forth?! Yeah, right. The Mighty-Tite is the ONLY reason I feel that my son is safe in my mom's car. I get it in there SO tight every time, and really quickly, too. This product is on my list of must-haves before my daughter arrives in May.

This is amazing. I thought that I was doing a good job tightening my son's car seat, but there is no way that I could ever get it as tight as it is with Mighty Tite. I love this product and will now be purchasing it for every baby gift that I will buy in the future.
Great Product! July 27, 2010

I bought this product on a whim from Walmart about two years ago. I fell in love with it and recently bought another on Amazon because it made it so much easier to install my daughter's forward-facing car seat.
I've read that people have had issues getting these off of the seat belts. I have managed to avoid that (running into a close call when I first started using it) by positioning it at the right distance on the seatbelt so that when you tighten it the seat won't get in the way of the release button on its side. I also read that this has destroyed seatbelts. I have switched around the car seat frequently (1-2 times per week) and upon inspection, haven't noticed a weakening point on the seat belts in either vehicles.
A Must for Anyone Using a Child Seat! September 18, 2001

Our son was about a year old when we discovered this neat little gizmo. Balking at the price, we waited until he was 2 years old to actually purchase one - big mistake! Not only does the Mighty-Tite make installing a car seat a breeze, it keeps the car seat secure over time - something that we were not able to do with just a standard seat belt and clip, in our Saturn! We were so impressed, that we bought a second one for the ease of installation (more than the secure over time issue) for my car. Then, we purchased a third one for a gift. Now that we are expecting our second child, 2 additional Mighty-Tites are at the top of the list of must haves - it is worth every penny!
