Features to consider when buying a convertible seat:
1. A point harness provides the best support. Most new models have 5 pint harnesses. Harnesses that adjust in the front are easier to use.

3. Installation of seats is quick and simple. Be sure to read the installation instructions. The safest place to install a child seat is in the center of the rear auto seat.
