By removing the back, the Nautilus will accompany a child up to 100 pounds. | Versatile, Convertible Design Lasts through Early Childhood
The Nautilus features an extended five-point harness design that can accommodate children over the age of one, from 20 to 65 pounds in weight--a wider range than most other forward-facing car seats. As your child grows, the seat easily converts to a high-back booster and then, lastly, to a backless booster for a child up to 100 pounds in weight.

EPS energy-absorbing foam provides additional security and comfort. As well as being secure and safe, your child will feel extra-comfy, too, with an easily adjustable head support, cushioned seat, and wide armrests; a cup holder and side storage keeps snacks and treasures close at hand. About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on. What's in the Box

 Value + looks December 1, 2008
After shopping around and testing different car seats, this was the hands down winner. It's made well, looks good and is priced fair. We have two of them and have been using them for a few months with no complaints. All the Graco products (stroller, car seats) that we've had have been good.
 Not bad! November 30, 2008
I spent a lot of time looking for car seats for my daughter and found this one. It was reasonably priced and considering that it lasts a while in different stages it is definately worth the price. My daughter really likes it better then the last one. It was a little tougher to secure in the car then the rear facing one but thats about it.
NAUTILUS CAR SEAT- BABY GIFT November 30, 2008
GRACO NAUTILUS IS RATED FIVE STARS BECAUSE OF ITS FEATURES FOR SAFETY AND DURABILITY. SENT IT TO MY DAUGHTER IN VIRGINIA WHO IS EXPECTING HER THIRD. IT WAS DELIVERED TO HER HOME THE VERY NEXT DAY. NOW, THAT'S FAST SERVICE. THANK YOU AMAZON.COM
FROM A DEVOTED GRANDMOTHER IN CALIFORNIA
Easy To Use and Love the Cup Holder and Side Pockets November 30, 2008
My son is five years old, 45 pounds, 47 inches tall, and we were set to purchase a much more expensive seat for him as he was getting too tall for his Britax Boulevard. However, on the enthusiastic recommendation of my sister-in-law and another friend we purchased the Graco Nautilus and have been very happy with it. It has a quality feel to it with all the features of more expensive models. Not only was it half of what we thought we'd be spending, it was really easy to assemble and use and my son loves the cup holder and the "hidden" pocket/receptacles on either side of the seat. He loves to take his socks and shoes off in the car and now he stashes his socks in the pockets so we don't have to look all over for them.
Great car seat November 30, 2008
This is a great car seat. I plan to keep my daughters harnessed until they fight me tooth and nail about it, and this car seat will allow me to do so. I currently have my 2 1/2 year old in this seat and my 10 month old will probably switch from her SafeSeat to this at around 15 months.
As for the recline, there is a reason it does not lean back like an easy chair: safety. You and your children are safer sitting upright than leaning too far back. My daughter can undo the chest clip, but not the lower and she is learning that she should not undo it.
I would have loved to have bought a Britax because they have prettier patterns, but what really makes a car seat? This seat is well made and I believe it will last the entire 5 years it is recommended that you keep a car seat. By that time my oldest will be 7 and my youngest will be 6 before hers expires.
