Are rotating car seats worth it?

My little one is almost too big for his baby car seat, and I keep hearing other parents talk about rotating car seats. I’m thinking about getting the Graco 4ever DLX, but then I see the Revolve 360 and others like it, and now I’m not sure what to do. Are these rotating seats really worth it? Thanks!

My car seat rotates, and I adore it. As children get older, it becomes increasingly difficult to pull them over the seat’s arm and maintain them facing forward. With the rotating seat, it’s really simple.

Well worth the effort. I did not have any problems with the bottom buckle on either of my big, tall ones. Should the rotating seat be absent, I would argue that it becomes even more crucial for larger infants because they will weigh more and need to be inserted at an awkward angle.

Yes. This baby, who is in the 99th percentile, has an amazing swivel. From detesting the car seat to putting up with it, the baby changed!

The Graco 4Ever DLX is better since it lasts for many years, it’s a cost-effective option.

Trying to get my very tall 18-month-old into the back seat of a sedan would be so much easier if I could rotate the seat. Right now, it’s like tossing a bag of potatoes sideways.
