We've got a super-tall baby who at 5 months is already too leggy for the Graco Slim Spaces. Does this seat work for tall babies?

Hi Kevin my son is 1 year old now, and he is a big boy ;)))) this chair is perfect for him, it's so easy to clean and he loves it , I hope it helps you

Yes, my guy is pretty tall as well - 30" at 6months and he fits fine. The foot rest is adjustable

My 9 month old grandson is 30" tall and the foot rest is still on the highest position.

Well can't say for sure but, I can say this our daughter is already 13 month's and she is above average in height and she seems to have room and works well, I would stop at babies r us and try one similar and put baby in and if fits order it...

Yes definitly. The black foot rest is adjustable. My boy who is almost 10 months 29 inch fits perfectly

Yes. I have 4 grandsons and when each was the age and height of your baby, the seat worked perfectly.

Hi, definately YES! My grandson was 6 months when we moved him into it for the same reason! It is a big seat though.

I have the infant Graco click connect car seat, when we placed the car seat on the stroller, the car seat seemed very unstable, wobbly. We even confirmed that the car seat was compatible with the stroller.. I really love the stroller, just not a good fit for our Graco car seat.. Unfortunately, we are returning the stroller...

I have tall kids too - loved this stroller but had to sell it as my then 3 yr old daughter became too tall, and the tires just couldn't handle the weight either. Leg room was also a problem and her arms were pinned to her sides. I do not recommend this stroller for tall/older kids. She was wearing a size 6 in girls at the time, my now 2 yr old (just) boy is in a 5t and is too tall for the single Expedition we purchased. It is really easy to maneuver and fold down, but in my opinion takes up a lot of room.

I did not try using the chair when my son was two months old. We didn't get this chair until he was almost 1. However, I have a different chair that reclines just the same as this Graco Slim and I have put my infant daughter in the chair at 3.5 months old. It's a bit big so I put blankets on each side of her. I only did this a few times when i needed to be in the kitchen. I wasn't the most comfortable with doing this but i was very close to her. Now I use her bassinet instead. Hope this helps.

My son is 8mo's old and is 25.5lbs and 31" tall and fits wonderfully with lots of room to grow. I have the seat in my Lexus GX470 and it takes up less room than the infant seat. I am more than glad to send you pics if you need!

Yes, it has two settings in the frame so it can be adjusted to allow for bigger kids. The Graco Nautilus we had previously was too short. This one still leaves my son room to grow. :-)

I'm not sure about a tall baby. My twins are on the short side. My biggest complaint with this toy was after a month or so of the babies leaning on the buttons the music and voices went spastic. It would skip and repeat the same thing over and over. I found it really disappointing because both of my babies had enjoyed playing with it.

No, this car seat is for babies who are mostly outgrowing an infant car seat that fit with a stroller. It will however allow you baby to ride in the car from toddler 30 inch+/ 20lbs + through to age 7 or 8 as it will eventually become a booster seat.. so lots of years of use. My boy is 33 inches, 23 lbs and he's very happy in his seat. It's sturdy, and more wide than it is high, so I can see out the rear vision mirror ok. Anyway, hope this answers your question. You might want to ring Graco and verify with them directly about the Quick Connect system.

Agreed with previous comment that the seat needs to be at the most reclined position for such a young baby. I myself did not use it when my daughter was that young. She was/is small for her age and felt her infant car seat gave her a much "cozier" feeling. We just bought an adaptor to use with the UppaBaby frame.

Yes, I think so. my son is 6 months. 25 pounds, 26 inches long. He fits in it fine. He sits up "ok" but not great yet.

Can't help out with the fit- though I will say it has fit in our BMW x3 which has a small back seat. It is the only car seat we have had for our daughter, birth to 16mos thusfar. ( the headrest raises in it, so you won't have a problem with height unless your headrest gets in the way. I would recommend purchasing online from Nordstrom- free shipping both directions so you can't go wrong with that :). Good luck!

Our son was right around 12 months, but he was a large baby and was already 25 pounds and tall enough to have outgrown his infant seat. He wasn't sleeping as much in the car and wanted to look around, so we figured it was time to have him in a more upright, taller seat.

I honestly cannot tell you the exact fit for that carseat bc I purchased it for a Gracco. However it works very well to bring baby home in bc baby is so small. It helped keep my son's neck and body aligned in the big car seat.

I am 5'4" and have an ergo baby carrier. This is a great question to ask. The carrier fits my husband who is 5'8" much better than it fits me. At my height, it sits very low on the hips, which I like because it helps equally distribute baby weight over the entire back. This is the reason I bought the carrier. It does a fantastic job of distributing weight across mom or dad's body. I also find it very safe as I am very clumsy and worry about falling with baby. I would def try it out before investing the $$$. For me, I regret this purchase. 1. My baby is very hot natured and gets too hot being next to me. 2. The newborn insert makes the carrier way too bulky for me. 3. This is designed for average or thin adults. This is not designed for large busted women or overweight women. There is not enough room for all of mom and a baby too. 4. My baby is small and not yet able to completely straddle me, so he does not sit comfortably. At 7 months, I am getting a frame backpack carrier for general toting around. I had one with his brother and he loved it. Plus it solves all of the above issues. I knew better but I wanted the closeness the Ergo provided. Good luck!

Yes, this seat may be used in the rear-facing position for a newborn baby that is over 5 lbs. Infant Positioning Insert may be necessary for small infants to achieve a snug fit of the harness around your child (sold separately). However, you may find an "infant carseat" more satisfactory and/or convenient for the first six months of your baby's life, as they are portable. We moved up to the Britax Advocate 70-G3 when our baby out-grew her "infant seat". Furthermore, if expense is key and you can not aford to buy two carseats, infant seat and convertable seat, then get the convertable seat as it will last you the longest and it is the best value for your money. Good luck with your little one!
