When does this seat expire? Does it convert into backless? And do the cup holders come off or slide in? Thank you in advance!

It converts to backless and the cup holders slide in and out. I do not know if there is an expiration date.

Mine was manufactured in may 2012. Yes it does convert to backless. Cup holders slide in.

Not sure on the expiration... It does covert to backless and the cup holders slides into the seat.

I can't answer when it expires bc it depends on when it was manufactured. But yes it does convert into a backless and the 2 cup holders slide in love this seat so worth the money my son loves too

I am not sure when it expires, it does convert to backless very easily. One side is a cup holder the other side is more of a snack holder since it is square and yes they do slide in.

The back doesn't fold down, you fold it by pulling up on the middle of the seat and it folds flat so that the arms and wheels are together. The foot rests are super easy to put on and take off, but you don't have to take them off to fold it, the foot rests flip up. It's very easy to fit into a trunk, it's very light, I think it weighs 14-15 lbs, but very tough. I used it for my elderly aunt who weighed 95 lbs. I think it's rated for 250 lbs. I would highly recommend it. The cup holder is a nice little extra that you can easily take off if you don't want it. It also has a seatbelt on it.

I bought this same console for my 2013 Kia Soul and No you will not lose the cup holders...you will not believe how easy it installs, great addition to my car.

I bought this seat for my granddaughter whom I sit 4 days a week. We have not used it yet, she is not 30 lbs yet but when it went on sale for 139.00 i couldnt pass it up! Im a big consumer reports reader and it was rated very high, plus I went to the store to check it out. the seat cushion is very good and the cup holders a big plus. Watch for this seat to go on sale. Baby days are coming up in many stores and sites. The colors are the only reason for price, some maybe last years.

I called Britax a few days ago (10/14/11) and the part numbers have changed so Amazon is clearing out the old stock. That's it! There are no new safety features. The only issue to pay attention to is that car seats have expiration dates, 6 years for a Boulevard from the date of construction so the new version may have a few more months in it before the expiration date.

It does not fit in a cup holder I hang mine from the handle off of the cup holder it will also ride on the console without sliding off or tipping over

The Carseat expires 6 years after their Manufacture date Only Because They assume That you will be using it. But if It is In the Box Unexposed to sunlight & extreme temperatures there should be NO concerns. The Main issue of concern would be the belt. As in Automobile if it was in an accident the belts should be replaced or if they are not tight.

We bought the mats for my daughters 2011 Jeep Liberty Sport. They are great and look good, but I'm not sure about the cup holder issue...sorry!

This seat expires 6 years from the date of manufacture. The Radian is 8. I believe one of the newer Britax may also be 8, but the Radian is the only seat I know for certain is longer.

We have had one for over 6-8 months, and bought another Recaro at least 6 months ago. I wouldn't buy any other brand. This is our third set of seats, as our son is 5. I can't recall what we had before, but next time around, Recaro, Recaro, Recaro. I don't own stock or anything like that.

It seems to me that it just comes with a few extra items:*XE model has a 7-year warranty.*It includes a cup holder and storage pouch which attach to the sides of the seat to store drinks, snacks and more

The one I got had a detachable cupholder. I havent put mine on because I don't think its quite necessary, but some parents might. Its a little plastic attachment that goes on the side. But I got the blue version, so I don't know if its different across different versions.

I love mine. I am 5'9 and it is perfect for my height. It works well and is everything I had expected. Except the cup holder has been moved to the front, which is a good thing.

It would depend on when you purchase the seat since they continue to make them. Every carseat is going to have a different manufacture date and different expiration date.

I don't know if you can get new straps. Frankly, if mine broke I would buy a different cup holder. This slides around a lot on the wheel chair arm. It's okay but I would like to try something else.

Call the manufacturer directly -- they stock replacement parts like replacement straps, covers, etc so I would think they would also have the cup holder.

Not sure if there is an expiration date on the seat but this is the best seat on the market right now hands down. We have now purchased two of them for our kids. Really easy to secure, move around and adjust for a growing kid.
