We have loved this carseat. The colors are subtle and match the car interior. The box looked very large so we wondered if the carseat would fit in our Civic, but it fits nicely. I rated durability 4 stars because we haven't had the carseat long enough to know its durabilty but so far it looks like it will hold up great. Our 10 month old loves it and it seems to have good padding.
Just as expected

This seat is exactly what I expected based upon my research and other reviews of the product. I have twin girls (8 1/2 mos), and ordered one at a time to be sure that I would approve. I have had the first seat for several weeks and I just ordered the second one yesterday.
It is a nice, neutral looking seat, and seems comfortable. It takes up a fair amount of space, and the side attachments seem kind of flimsy, but I think that they will withstand normal use. My only real complaint is one that others have voiced - the girls' heads do roll forward when they fall asleep. I have not had the issues with the straps that others have had - they seem pretty straight forward to me, particularly once they are adjusted properly.
Overall, for the cost, I like it.

Comments about Evenflo Titan Elite Convertible Car Seat Levante:
My main disappointment is the fact that the instructions say that the straps should come over the shoulders from above the height of the child's shoulders, but the highest adjustment doesn't facilitate this angle on my [2.5] year old grandson, who is not a giant; from the highest position, the straps have to go up and over his shoulders (the seat is suppose to be useful through year 4). Like other items manufactured elsewhere, the design appears to be targeting smaller bodied children than the average westerner.
Quality carseat.

Carseat was easy to setup. The fabric appears to be very durable and easy to clean. Grandson out grew his infant carseat at 9 months. This one is presently used rear facing, but will be converted to forward facing at 1 year. It is a good fit now and appears to have plenty of growing room. I would recommend this product because I feel it is a quality carseat.

Great seat! It is very easy to set up (I'm not sure why some reviewers said it was difficult, the instructions are simple and I adjusted and installed it correctly in about 15 minutes). It's safety tested, padded well, my 8 month old son loves it! Don't waste your money on the more expensive seats, this one is a great product at a great price!
Very good

After many hours of research I decided to buy this for my little guy. He absolutely loves it. It is alot easier to put him in and out of than his infant seat becuase of the tightening strap. It did take about 45 minutes to put it into my trailblazer because I could not get the right angle of recline. But when I put it into my wife's G6 it went in right away. I would deffinately recommend this!! For the price it just cant be beat.
Nice looking carseat, works well

I had read many reviews before purchasing this seat that warned of difficult to adjust straps and an inability to install the seat properly. However, I have found that neither of these issue is a real problem (for me).
Before doing anything with the seat, I sat down and read the manual through (which is a good idea to do). I adjusted the straps at the right height position for my 14 month old daughter, and this is the only thing I found to be problematic. The manual says it will fit a child up to 30lbs in the rear facing position, which is one of the reasons I chose this carseat (to keep my daughter rear facing a little longer). BUT out of the 4 strap heights, only the bottom 2 are "suppose" to be used in the rear facing position, and the top 2 for front facing. To fit my daughter, I had to thread the straps through the 3rd slot (one meant for front facing), which is something the manual says not to do. She is not a big baby (28in and 22lbs at 14 months), so I wonder how well this will fit her a few years from now (it says it will go up to 50lbs). Besides this though I don't have any real complaints.
The whole strap issue for some hasn't been a problem. Yes, if you pull on one side the other side will tighten. However, if you "get" how the straps are threaded through the seat, it's no biggie. I've found that it's best to loosen the straps a little before putting your child inside. (Grab BOTH straps with one hand, not just one side or you won't truly be loosening it.) After they're in, adjust each strap loop to make sure that they're even, that one side is not tighter than the other (or you won't be able to tighten it properly). Buckle them in and then tighten. Easy!
I actually like that this is a system in which you have to manually rethread the straps. It makes it easier to take apart to clean, and I don't have to be afraid that the belts will go haywire on me and not tighten or loosen as they should (as I have read from reviews of a more expe

this carseat is very easy to assemble and to install. my son looks comfortable in his new seat. the features are great. the only downfall would be that with the snack tray and the cup holder attached it takes up alot of space.
Great and Affordable ~

Comments about Evenflo Titan Elite Convertible Car Seat Levante:
This is a great carseat for the money. While I have a Britax in my car (top of the line) my hubby and Mom both have this seat in theirs. It's perfect for them, very comfortable for our son, and most of all - safe and affordable. I would definitely recommend this one if you're on a budget and/or seeking models for multiple cars. My only complaint would be that we are afraid our son might not fit in it until he would grow out of it weight-wise. The shoulder height should be a little higher as we only have one slot to go before he wouldn't fit anymore and he is only 16 months old ... and not a big baby might I add. That's the one thing I would consider when making a final decision.
Great Buy!!

We ordered this product online. I was a little concerned because sometimes products arrive and are a completely different color than what you see online. This product is slightly different, but not bad. I love the colors! Not tacky at all and nice if you are looking for something neutral. My husband had it in the car within 15 minutes and it is very secure. I can have my baby snapped in/out in no time. The seat seems to be very comfortable for our baby and I look forward to using it for a long time!
Very good carseat!

I had to order this site to store, so I was a little nervous about it, but I am so happy I got it! It looks so nice and the memory foam is great! It is such a good price too! I never saw any in the store that had comfort, looks, safety, and a good price tag, and this has all that. I am very satisfied.

We love the Evenflo carseats. We bought the Titan this time for our second baby as a more affordable option to their higher-end Evenflos. The fasteners are fairly easy to use, the seats are neutral - attractive, and they were pretty easy to install.
Not what I expected

Comments about Evenflo Titan Elite Convertible Car Seat Levante:
I purchased this seat after my son outgrew his infant seat. I liked the price but some of the features I wasn't pleased with. The harness straps DO have to be rethreaded when your baby outgrows the current setting. The warning label on the head pillow is an uncomfortable melted on vinyl stuff, though the one on the actual seat is a soft satin material. My son is in between the heights of the middle two harness shoulder levels so its either too tight or too loose for his current height. I did like the material the seat is made of. It looks like it would clean easy. And I also like all the cup holders that came with it. Since my husband rarely carries the kids in his car, this seat went in his and I purchased the Evenflo Triumph for my car. It fits better in my car and the harness straps do not have to be rethreaded for height as he grows. I also like that it has turn knobs on the sides to adjust the tightness of the harness instead of on the front of the seat since my son is still rear-facing in the car. I don't like that is comes with one dinky cup holder though.
Nice Car Seat

I bought this car seat for my car (the grandmother) to have my own and not have to switch seats out of his mothers car when it was time to ride with Granny. I would recommend it for anyone its a nice looking seat, sturdy and easy to install. The reason I bought it too was because it the weight was from 5lb to 40, I will not have to switch seats for a long time.
Evenflo vs Sunshine Kids

Comments about Evenflo Titan Elite Convertible Car Seat Levante:
I bought a Sunshine Kids 3-in-1 seat, had it about 3 months. My friend bought this one from the beginning. I wish I'd gotten this first. We are using the sunshine for a backup. It is way easier to tighten than the sunshine kids. Much roomier also, my son seems to love it, doesn't cry when I put him in the seat now. He looks much more relaxed. The only thing I wish it had was the velcro to hold the straps back. Overall great buy!
LOVE IT!!!

I loved the colors on the carseat and all of the features. It wasn't really easy to set up, but once you get it figured out, it's a breeze.
My son loves the seat so far.
I like that it's got the latch system and the fact that it can be rear and forward facing.
I would recommend this seat to a friend!
