Light weight
Recommends this product
The weight is right but the rest isn't.
I purchased the Romi for a up coming 6 hour flight to Seattle my troller in and for the car rental. Found a good number of reviews that recommended as super light weight and great for traveling. My honest opinion after a solid week of use is I wouldn't use this car seat. Yes, it is very light weight, but the positioning of the opening for the car seat belt is terrible. When in the rear facing position when strapping in my kid, it would dip down. And this was after repositioning the car seat belt a number of times. No confidence it would be in any type of semi fixed position in a crash. The tightening scrap was constantly getting stuck in both directions. If your taking this for a flight, it will more than likely only for in the forward direction, as rear facing the seat is right up against the seat in front. Also, the aircraft seat belt buckle will sit under your childs lower back when tight, not a good feeling. Honestly, I can't recommended the Romi. Yes, it is cheap and light weight, but that's the only good things.

Decent product but not perfect
This product was provided to me for free for a review. I'm the person who does hours of research prior to purchasing a new seat. For a budget friendly seat this seat meets most of my important items. It does seem slightly flimsy and i struggle to get it snug in the seat. Weight and height restrictions are comparable to other brands. It is very light weight which if nice if you plan to move it often. Overall i would recommend if the friend needed a budget friendly option.

Great convertible seat
We loved this car seat. It was easy to install with the included directions. It seemed comfortable for our toddler, and has good protection. Luckily we haven't had to clean it other than a quick vacuum out but it seems easy to clean. I have already recommended this one to a few friends who are expecting babies.

The Perfect Travel Companion, Wonderfully Simple Carseat
This carseat doesn't have any fancy bells and whistles because It's not overly complicated, it's perfectly simple. Fast and easy to install (forward or rear facing), it's a great carseat to have for travel or switching cars a lot. It's the lightest carseat I've ever seen, without being $400+ and feeling super flimsy! This honey is sturdy, super easy to clean, feels safe, very affordable and the best travel companion. My toddler dumps food and gets sand all over this and it is so easy to shake off or remove the cover to throw in the wash. Easiest carseat I have ever cleaned! I keep this carseat in my husband's truck, and our "fancier" maxi cosi pria in my mini van, but whenever we travel or go in a friend's car we always use the Romi because it's so light weight, more compact than a typical toddler car seat, and easy to transfer/install! About to buy another one for baby #2 because this is the best car seat ever!

We love our Romi Car Seat!
We just transferred our 11 month old to this car seat and she is loving it! (So are we!) It's so roomy and comfortable for her. We love how lightweight it is and how we can easily take it out when we need to clean our minivan or transfer the seat to our second vehicle.

Not for a new born
I really wanted to like this car seat, but it has been nothing short of a nightmare. From day one, my child was sliding left and right no matter how I adjusted the straps or padding. It felt like I was constantly re-positioning them during every ride. The seat offers little to no side support, and I genuinely don’t understand how this made it through safety testing for newborns. The engineering is poor — it feels flimsy, awkward to install, and just not well thought out in terms of keeping a baby safe and secure. Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend this seat to anyone with a newborn or young infant. Maybe it might work better for a baby five months or older who can sit up with more control, but for a smaller or younger baby, it’s just not safe or stable enough in my opinion. If you’re looking for peace of mind during car rides, this is not the seat for you. I regret this purchase and would not recommend it to other parents.
