works fine

The seat works just fine. I like the suspension. The rack took some time to get on....the instructions were poor. The seat goes on and off easily. Kid seems to enjoy it. Small/young kids are too short for their head/helmet to fit into the back "window" or pocket recess.

Overall good seat and would recommend it to anyone

The suspension is great, lots of leg room for the child and cutout for helmets are all pluses. The only down side is that it was very difficult to initially get the rack on the bike. The directions are very poor, but once it on the bike the seat was easily removed and replaced. Another plus is that you can purchase another rack for a second bike.

Great seat, would recommend to anyone, easy to use

We bought this seat at our local bike shop, it's the only one they sell. We've been very happy with it. Our son loves to ride "with " us. The seat is very easy to attach to either bike bracket. (We had to buy a 2nd bracket, which was inexpensive, for my husbands bike.)
Attaching the bracket on my bike was difficult, but we just called our bike shop and they gave us more bolts/nuts. (I have a small, GT mtn. bike.) The bracket instructions were vaige, but with patience we got it attached.
The seat seems very safe, I like how it has high sides and protects the childs upper body as well as their legs and feet, without blocking their ability to see all the sights around them.
We would definately recommend this to anyone!! The price isn't bad either, we paid around $130. (For the safety price wouldn't matter.)

Works good, my kid likes it!

I got it dicounted from REI and it had a small defect, fixed that but some other strap is coming apart, difficult to install the rack and heavy both the rack and the seat, suspension is a must if the seat is mounted on the rack. Fits very good my kid and it looks very safe. Also better buy one of those kickstand that mount on the rear wheel so you don't have to worry about the bike tipping over. It takes a bit of getting used to the wheight being so far back, mount the rack as forward as possible.
