| skysky98's Full Review: Century Breverra Ascend |
My husband and daughter went to Toys-R-Us shopping for ideas for her Christmas list. He decided that it was time for a new car seat for our daughter because she is to tall for her old one, and surprised me with his new purchase. He bought the Breverra Ascend that has a neat little cup holder on sale for $59.99.
I thought what a great idea, a cup holder for her to put her cup in. No more cups falling on the floor, between the door, or her sticking it by her side and then getting mad that it was jammed into her side. The Breverra is really easy to install.
To install with the harness system
It has a padded flap that you can pull forward to make it easier to thread the seat belt through the opening to buckle it. You need to tighten it to make sure that it doesn't move. If you have a reclining seat, you need to make sure that it is in the correct position to where the car seat is a snug fit within the seat.
To install without harness
This is great when your child gets older.
You just place the car seat in the vehicle and strap the child in like you would yourself except make sure that the seat belt is across your child's chest and lap belt under both armrests. Then buckle the belt and make sure that the belt is threaded through the Comfort clip to insure that the belt is not on you child's neck.
This car seat comes with extra part that can be used to replace worn out or broken parts. The instruction manual shows you exactly how to replace the parts. And if additional parts are needed, they have an order form. This seat seems to be pretty durable.
There are a few things that I don't like about this seat:
2-Piece Harness Tie-- This is the part that you clip together in front of your child's chest. It is made of plastic and will break in time. (But you can order one for $5)
No Support while sleeping-- There is no support for your child like most car seats have for a child while she/he is sleeping.
Other than that, I really like this car seat for my daughter.
