The Graco® SlimFit3™ LX 3-in-1 Car Seat is our slimmest design that fits 3 car seats across, saving space in your back seat without compromising on the safety you trust and the features you need. This narrow all-in-one car seat grows with your child from rear-facing harness (5-40 lb) to forward-facing harness (26.5-65 lb) to highback booster (40-100 lb). We tested our lightweight 3-across car seat in every configuration, to help ensure your growing family can fit in your vehicle, even with children of different ages who ride in different modes, or when paired with select other Graco car seats. Integrated belt lock-off makes for easy vehicle seat belt installation in forward-facing mode, and allows you to position your seats to maximize space with 3 across. Graco’s exclusive push-button InRight™ LATCH provides an easy, one-second attachment with an audible click to help ensure secure installation. We made thoughtful design choices to make the SlimFit3 easy to adjust with 3 car seats in the back seat. The No-Rethread Simply Safe Adjust™ Harness System allows you to adjust the height of the headrest and harness to 10 positions with just one motion for just the right fit. Easily adjust the 4-position recline for a better installation and a comfortable ride. The Rapid Remove cover comes off in 60 seconds, without uninstalling the seat or removing the harness, and is machine washable. Plus, the SlimFit3™ is slim enough to fit 3 across, but spacious enough to keep your growing child comfy. Breathable mesh AirFlow channels provide improved ventilation to keep your child cool and comfortable. Two cup holders are designed to work with the three-across configuration to keep drinks and snacks close at hand. Fuss-free harness storage pockets conveniently hold the harness out of the way while your child gets in and out. Removable, plush head and body inserts help to keep your infant feeling cradled and comfortable. The steel-reinforced frame provides strength and durability for years of use, and EPS energy-absorbing foam provides effective impact energy management. This car seat is Graco® ProtectPlus Engineered™ to help protect in frontal, side, rear, and rollover crashes.

Recommended Use
Rear-Facing Harness: 5-40 lb, head must be at least 1" below handle;
Forward-Facing Harness: 26.5-65 lb, up to 49";
Highback Booster: 40-100 lb, 43-57", at least 4 years old STOP using this child restraint and throw it away 10 years after the date of manufacture. Children are safer riding rear-facing and should ride rear-facing as long as possible, until they reach the maximum rear-facing height or weight rating for their car seat. Then children should ride forward-facing, using the built-in harness system for as long as possible until they reach the maximum forward-facing weight or height for their car seat. At that point, children should ride in a belt-positioning booster seat. A booster is no longer needed once the vehicle seat belt fits properly, typically when they reach 4 feet 9 inches tall and are between ages 8-12. Be sure to check your local and state laws, as well as AAP and NHTSA recommendations, for car seat usage.* *Graco Supports the American Academy of Pediatrics and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Car Seat Guidelines.

Unsafe Chest Clip DesignI’m extremely disappointed with this car seat and with Graco’s response to my safety concern.
The chest clip on our SlimFit 3-in-1 requires virtually no pressure to release. My 2½-year-old son can easily open it himself while the vehicle is moving. This has reached the point where I do not feel comfortable driving alone with him in this seat.
I contacted Graco and provided photos. Graco confirmed that my son is harnessed correctly, so improper fit or positioning is not the issue. Their response was essentially that the chest clip is not designed to be childproof and that if he opens it while I’m driving, I should pull over and re-secure him.
That does not address my actual concern: why does this particular chest clip release with so little pressure?
I specifically asked about the possibility that the clip is malfunctioning or defective. I was also told there is no replacement chest clip available for this model. Instead of evaluating the clip or offering a meaningful remedy, I was given general advice about toddlers opening chest clips.
I understand that a chest clip must be capable of being opened by an adult in an emergency. I am not expecting it to be an unopenable lock. But I do expect a child-restraint component not to be so easy to release that a 2½-year-old can repeatedly open it while I’m driving.
We are replacing this seat. Parents of young toddlers should be aware of this issue before purchasing.

AMAZING Slim Fit!We’ve been using our car seats for about a month now and we love them! You can truly fit three across which has been an absolute game changer! The seats are easy to instal and adjust! I was pleasantly surprised with the padding level. My kids are just as comfortable in these slim fits as they were in the extend to fit! The only down sides for me, there is not a foot extender/foot rest, and the side of the car seat are low so it’s easy for my 1yo to reach her hands up and try to grab things away from my 5yo. But overall we’ve been so pleased and these seats have solved so many spacing issues for us!
