do armrests pivot/move to gain access for buckling seat belt when adjacent to another carseat? Looks like maybe Evenflo changed this w new models???

Thanks for your inputs...Spoke w evenflo - this LX and DLX model w/ lights but no speakers pivot. Newer models with cupholders built into armrests do not pivot.

On mine, which is a couple of years old now, the armrest flips "up" on a hinge. Not sure how newer models are made.

Hello! The answer is Not. The base has his own belts and this are short, even you can use the car's sitbelt but only as back-facing. Regards

Absolutely. The armrest didn't change until 2012. I love this. Seems kinda pricey but well worth it.

Easily when connection is put on upper cross-body portion of seat belt. Less mobility genearlly if put on the across waist portion. My dog stands, butt against the seat back, nose forward as far as he can reach. If not for the restraint, the 75-lb backseat driver would be standing on the console between my two front seats, hunkered down to look out the front windshield. (He thinks he's driving.)

We bought this model and the Chicco Keyfit 30 carseat and could not find any way for them to fit securely, even after watching the video posted in the above comment. There just simply isn't enough room for both carseats to fit securely. I also found the instruction manual for the 1305TW and if you scroll down to Bar Location Chart Chicco is not even on the list.The manual: http://www.babytrend.com/pdf/1305TW_EN_0608c.pdf

Yes. Simply lift the fabric up on the lower right or left of the carseat and there are a couple notches the holder slides (and clicks) into place.

I find that this model does not slide at all for me, even when empty. My area to cover is curved, as well. I don't even bother to secure it with the seat belt because it stays in place so well. Great Product! Go for it! Good Luck!

I do not have this problem, but it may be helpful to consult customer service. The button in the front of the car seat helps to adjust the straps, if you haven't tried that already. Good luck!

Yes. They adjust front and back. The resistance is quiet low, so even a fast stop will move the headrests slightly forward. If you lean back on them with any pressure they will move back. Not really designed for safety I guess. We constantly have to pull them forward so that they are more safe incase of a rear end accident causing whiplash.

The car seats were purchased for our granddaughters. The were installed on their fathers auto. I know the four year old does buckle up and unbuckle the seat by herself. Don't know about the adjustability, but we were given specs by their dad and I am sure he would be aware of the adjustability. Hope this helps.

I just bought this car seat yesterday 12/21/13 at target and that models shoulder straps are removable, maybe it's only on the newer models.

No, but you might be able to just install one and take the wrapping or covering off, as shown in picture without carseat then both carseats would lock into place.

I bought a hatchback car with back seats that fold down, and I haven't had a need for the pet hammock in a while. I know there is plenty of slack, but I don't remember there being holes for the seatbelt to go through.

No. For this model, you raise the headrest a bit, pull the clips through, draw the cover over the headrest and insert the buckles into the clips. Then you just adjust the covered headrest into whatever comfortable position you want it. It's installing the seat loops between the seat & back that's problematic, if your vehicle has a non-removable covering over that space (as mine does).

there are actually two straps that go around the headrest. The smaller one supports the weight of the back (grey "backboard" in the picture) and the second, longer one, goes from the front of the seat to the headrest. This second one is extra long and adjustable. Both simple loop over the headrest. I feel the carseat is very stable-I've never had it slip around or move. This speaks well for the quality, because my puppy is very active in the car:)

One of my cars has arm rests, the back part will only pull down as far as the arm rest but its plenty of coverage. They still look and fit well.

I'm not sure what you mean by a "seatbelt like a carset" other than I'm taking it to mean it has the shoulder and leg fasteners? I don't actually use the shoulder parts as my son likes to reach forward and for a high chair I never thought it was necessary.
