“What is the most valuable thing to you as a parent? 99% of the readers will answer, it is my kid. I understand how precious our kids are to us. It’s not surprising to see a parent putting their best effort to protect their kids.”
Road accidents rise in number every day, taking away many valuable lives from us. It’s our responsibility not to put our child in harm’s way when traveling in a vehicle. Graco Extend2Fit Convertible Car Seat (B08C79V1G1) is such an invention that can guarantee a safe journey for your children.
I will share my experience and all the details you need to know about this car seat through the article. Are you wondering about buying a child car seat? If so, you will find the below information very useful.
What is the Safest Direction for Child to Face When Travelling in the Vehicle?
After observing the years of accident data, experts recommend children face the rear when traveling in the vehicle. Especially the youngest kids and infants should travel facing the back of the vehicle. But that’s not possible with any car seat arrangement we buy today.
Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1) has observed this and made the perfect child car seat that can face either front or rear.
What is the Weight Range of Child for Rear Facing and Front Facing?
Our children grow very fast within the first few years. The maximum space that a seat can provide to a child is limited when it’s facing the rear end. Because of this, at some point, we have to change the side of the seat.
- Rear-Facing – 4-50 lb
- Front Facing – 22-65 lb
Ride More Facing Rear
To extend the time a child ride facing the rear side Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1) has added a four-position extension panel. This panel gives your child extra five inches of leg space.
How to Guarantee Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1) Provides Safety to Your Child in Any Accident?
There are many safety standards set for child car seats. Manufacturers try their best to reach these standards to provide better care for their customers. If we consider Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1), it has many such certifications.
- Meets or exceeds the child restraint criteria for a frontal crash test under the UU FMVSS 213
- Side-impact tested for occupant retention with the built-in 5-point harness system
- Rear-impact tested based on the European Rear-Impact Crash Pulse
- Tested to Graco’s RollSafe™ testing standard based on the European rollover testing procedure
I extracted these tests and standard data to assure the safety this car seat provides to our children. It is safe for the front, side, rear, or roll accidents.

Do Cushions Give Additional Protection to Child?
If you closely observe cushions in Graco Extend2Fit Convertible Car Seat (B08C79V1G1), you will how much protection they provide your child. The area around the head has heavy pads to prevent the head from moving sideways. You can see the same for the lower body as well.
These extra cushions may seem like a burden to your child. But I never see my kid’s unhappy face when sitting in his Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1). I bet that’s because of the comfort it gives.
Can You Adjust the Headrest Height in Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1)?
Yes, you can do this easily in the child’s car seat. As I said before, your kid will grow fast within the first few years. Understanding this Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1) gives you the option to change the headrest up to ten positions.
Your kids will enjoy riding sitting in this seat even when they grow up fast.
Harness That Adjust with the Headrest
Most of the child’s car seats have a harness that will not adjust with the headrest. But that is not true for Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1). Its harness will adjust itself along with the headrest height. As a parent, I can not say how convenient this is.
Can You change the Inclination of Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1)?
Yes, you can do this quite easily with this car seat. You know that a long journey can make your kid tire fast. Falling asleep while sitting also does not feel like a comfortable task. You can recline this car seat into six positions. In this way, you can provide the best comfort to your kid.
Is It Hard to Take the Child Out of the Seat?
No, it’s the opposite. First, I thought that I would require some time to adjust to this new seat. But that was not true. Manufacturers have made taking the child away without tangling in the harness very easy.
The harness will not stand your way to get the baby out. Besides that, there is a storage pocket given to you in the Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1). You can use this pocket to hide the harness and stop it from tangling.
How to Attach Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1) the Car Seat?
This job is not hard at all. First, place the seat in either front-facing or rear-facing position. Next, latch the kid’s seat to the car seat. Once you do this, always check whether it’s properly attached or not.
Is There Cup Holder in Graco Extend2Fit (B08C79V1G1)?
Yes, there is a large cup holder in this car seat. Although spills are unavoidable, my kid loves to have his cup with him in the cupholder.
Conclusion
The safety of our kids is a priority when traveling in a vehicle. Graco Extend2Fit Convertible Car Seat (B08C79V1G1) provides that necessary safety in many ways.
You can adjust it easily to fit your kids and give them the best comfort possible. If you’re looking for a child car seat, I think this is a good choice for you.
