I am OBSESSED with our rotating seat and I 10000% think it is worth it! I had the Graco Extend2Fit for like a week before I returned it for the Evenflo 360. That feature is an absolute game-changer for me. I say if you've got the extra $$$, spend it!
So enthusiastic about Evenflo 360 that they returned a Graco Extend2Fit after one week; calls rotation an 'absolute game-changer.'
After 2 kids and 4 car seats, we landed on the evenflo revolve 360. It spins sideways to load/unload your child, and you just spin it forward facing after they grow out of rear facing (around 3 years old depending on kids size) The sideways loading is LIFE CHANGING. It's about $300, worth every penny. It also goes up to 120#, and you can use it as a booster when they are like 8.
'LIFE CHANGING' and 'worth every penny' from experienced parent (2 kids, 4 seats tried). Extremely detailed: sideways loading, RF-to-FF transition, price ($300), weight limit (120lbs), longevity (booster at age 8).
Evenflo revolve 360 (I have the Slim version). Should grow with my kid for a long time and omg the ability to turn it to face me to get her in and out of our small vehicles is chef's kiss. We did a 12 hour road trip with her at 14mo in it and she was as comfortable as one can be during a 12hr trip. Whichever you choose, if you can afford it, splurge on something that rotates.
Enthusiastic owner of Slim version; praises rotation for small vehicles; tested on 12-hour road trip at 14 months; expects long-term use.
1,000%! We have the evenflo extend 360, one of the only ones that can be rear facing for 50lbs (most are 40lbs). Worth every single penny
Enthusiastic endorsement; specifically highlights 50lb rear-facing limit as differentiator from competitors at 40lbs; 'worth every single penny.'
We got the evenflo 360 for kid 2. Our older child's regular Graco seat went in our other car. I am honestly annoyed every time we have to use the car with the Graco 😂 I have loved the 360 since day 1, and our child just turned 3. Even installing it is so much more simple than the other ones. Would definitely recommend.
Loved since day 1; annoyed when using the non-rotating Graco in comparison; praises simple installation; child is now 3 showing long-term use.
We have the revolve360 in my car and a non rotating seat in my husbands car since our son doesn't go in that car as much. My son always complains about the other being uncomfortable. I have a bad back so the revolve360 has been AMAZING and it's so easy to get my son in and out. With Black Friday sales coming up you should be able to get a good deal on one too!
'AMAZING' — direct comparison where kid prefers revolve360 (complains about the other seat). Specifically great for bad back. Easy loading. Kid finds it more comfortable than non-rotating alternative.
I have the Evenflo Revolve 360 and it was hands down the single greatest purchase of my pregnancy/babyhood. My trucks back doors don't open and my Saturn has suicide doors so none of my vehicles have normal doors but this thing made it a non issue. I actually waited until the very very very last second I could to buy it because I just knew it was going to go on sale and when it finally did I was actually only two days out from delivery lol. Worth it though. My only teeny complaint is (most lik
Calls it 'the single greatest purchase of my pregnancy/babyhood'; specifically useful for vehicles with non-standard doors; only 'teeny complaint' suggests overwhelmingly positive.
We have the revolve 360 and I love it so much. Would recommend 10/10.
Owns the product; gives it a 10/10 recommendation.
YES! I have the evenflo 360 and it makes SUCH a difference getting kiddo in / out of seat + overall a VERY easy install compared to other seats I've used
Emphatic endorsement; praises both the rotation for loading/unloading and ease of installation compared to other seats.
I have used the Evenflo Revolve 360 Slim since he was born, and have never used an infant carrier carseat. It has been the BEST thing ever, especially since I'm short. My nephew uses the exact same carseat and it saved his life when my sister, mom, and him were in a t-bone accident on his side. He only had a seat belt bruise. If you do get that seat, make sure to get the easy remove cover. I really wish I did.
'BEST thing ever' — used from birth (no infant seat), specifically good for short people. Powerful safety anecdote (nephew survived t-bone accident with only seat belt bruise). Minor caveat: recommends easy-remove cover they wish they'd gotten.
Evenflo revolve 360. We've had 2 baby trend car seats, a Graco car seat, and the evenflo and evenflo is hands down my favorite. Easy to rotate and it's the one my daughter has cried the least in lol
Compared against multiple other brands (Baby Trend, Graco) and Evenflo is 'hands down' favorite; daughter cries least in it.
I absolutely love my Evenflo Revolve 360! Bought one for my newborn as well!
Loves it so much they purchased a second one for their newborn; strong endorsement through repeat purchase.
I've got the [Evenflo Revolve360 Extend](https://www.google.com/share.google?q=U4vpjhunGePMrE7x6) and it's honestly been amazing. The swivel makes loading and unloading so much easier, especially when your kid's asleep or you're in a tight parking spot. Install was simple, feels super solid, and my kid's always comfortable in it. The extended rear-facing is a huge plus too. Pricey, yeah, but 100% worth it
'Honestly been amazing' and '100% worth it' with multiple specific positives: swivel for sleeping kid/tight spots, simple install, solid feel, comfortable, extended rear-facing. Only caveat is price.
We have the evenflo revolve 360. I love the rotation and specifically picked it because it's up to 50 lbs rear facing and 60 lbs forward facing because my son is also gaining like crazy (21 lbs at 7 months)
Chose specifically for high weight limits (50lb RF, 60lb FF); loves the rotation; notes fast-growing child at 21lbs at 7 months.
I have the Revolve 360. Mainly purchased because my car is a 2 door. It is so so clutch.
Owns the product; purchased specifically for 2-door car compatibility; calls it 'so so clutch.'
I have an mid size SUV and we have the evenflo 360 slim and even though it forces the front passenger (usually me) to sit up a bit more, it is so worth that sacrifice! Would be a NO BRAINER in any mid size SUV or larger
Owns the Slim version in mid-size SUV; acknowledges space trade-off for front passenger but calls it 'so worth that sacrifice' and a 'NO BRAINER' for mid-size or larger.
If you catch a good sale ( we are big fans of the Evenflo Revolve 360! It can be bought for mid 200s throughout the year on sale.
Family are 'big fans'; provides pricing info (mid $200s on sale) as budget-friendly alternative to Graco 4Ever.
Evenflow revolve 360. Single installation, one handed swivel to both front and back. Convertible with booster seat option.
Owns the product; highlights key features: single install, one-handed swivel, and convertible to booster.
Yep. I have the evenflo360 and love it. It's so easy to get them in and out of it!!
'Love it' with specific ease-of-use detail about getting children in and out. Clear positive with specific functional benefit cited.
The evenflo revolve 360 extended last all the way through it converts into a booster and it's the highest in rear facing 50lbs for a rotating car seat.. sooo worth it to me
'Sooo worth it' with specific feature callouts: converts to booster (longevity), highest RF weight limit at 50lbs for a rotating seat. Values the long-term investment.
The revolve 360 is really easy to get my son in and out, and straps are really smooth to tighten which is great. I do wish that we had a car seat with the sensor warning in it for the extra sanity check, but I didn't think about it at the time I was comparison shopping.
Praises ease of loading/unloading and smooth strap tightening; mild wish for sensor feature but overall positive.
My boy is about to hit 2 yrs old in mid May and we are still using the Rava in my wifes Bronco. Its held up very well, and even recently had to remove the fabric and give it a wash since the baby had a big blowout. Was fairly simple to put back on as well. We are still in rear facing but hes getting closer and closer to the height limit for rear facing. We have resisted the urge to forward face early, but we are definitely likely to forward face once May comes around. Our son has already been trying to turn himself around to see the front side of the vehicle..he wants to know what's going on behind him because he hears the radio, me talking, the view from the windshield. I see him turning his head up and peaking over the carseat sometimes in awe of everything. Hes definitely ready for a change of scenery lol In my Jeep however I have an evenflo 360 rotating carseat, and honestly its been great being able to rotate the seat for easy access, compared to the traditional awkward motion I have to make with my aon to get him seat in rear facing since hes gotten taller. I have a much simpler time putting him in the Jeep than in the Bronco lol but that doesnt mean there is anything wrong with the Rava. My jeep sits a bit high off the ground though, which is why I opted for the rotating seat in my vehicle. Still, I have had zero issues with the Rava in comparison, and we will definitely keep using in the Bronco as our baby grows.
'Honestly its been great' — specifically praises rotation for easy access in high-sitting Jeep. Simpler loading than non-rotating seat. Positive but acknowledges it's for a specific use case (tall vehicle).
We have the evenflo revolve extend 360 in both our cars. They go on sale frequently too
Bought TWO — one for each car — which is a strong implicit endorsement. Also notes price accessibility (frequent sales). Repeat purchase indicates satisfaction.
We have the Evenflo 360 revolve and I love that it swivels, but it takes up a lot of space!! I'm due in less than 2 weeks with our second kid. Didn't know if I'd want both car seats on the outside or one in the middle seat. Yeahhh, no way the base for the infant car seat was fitting next to the toddler seat. We have a Subaru Forester. There's also just barely enough room from where the Evenflo sticks out against the back of the driver's seat when my tall husband drives. If you had a minivan, I t
Loves the swivel feature but significant size complaint in a Subaru Forester; barely fits with tall driver; recommends for larger vehicles only.
What cars do you have? The biggest issue with 360 degree car seats is that they are big bulky things. Mine feels like a squeeze in my Corolla. I think in a Camry/Accord full size sedan it would feel much better. Obviously with the right SUV or minivan this is a nonissue. They also tend to cost a bit extra, but nothing so crazy. As another commenter said, I have the Evenflo Revolve 360 Slim Gold. I bought it because Walmart was selling it for $200 and the competitors were 350-400 or even more not for any particular preference. It works for me.
'It works for me' — functional but not enthusiastic. Bought on price ($200 vs competitors at $350-400). Notes it's bulky/'squeeze' in a Corolla. Practical choice, not a passionate endorsement.
Nuna Rava. We also have the Graco Extend to Fit and Evenflo Revolve 360. Our kid hates the Nuna cup holder position, but complains the least about her butt hurting. It's the most comfortable. Can't complain about the cup holder on the other two. All came in with good ratings. We have multiple kids and have two Nuna Rava and the quality is the best of the bunch.
Owns three seats including Evenflo. Cup holder is fine ('can't complain') and good ratings, but Nuna clearly preferred for comfort and quality. Evenflo is acceptable but secondary choice.
Evenflo rotating seats are currently under investigation, which is a bummer. It's what we have. Here's a [link.](https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/what-parents-should-know-about-the-investigation-into-the-evenflo-revolve-360-car-seat/ar-BB1hFdKm)
Owns the seat but notes active safety investigation; calls it 'a bummer' - mixed feelings due to external concern rather than personal experience of failure.
Chicco fit360 is amazing. I have that and the evenflo 360 and it feels much more solid, easier to use and rotate, etc.
Owns both Chicco and Evenflo; says Chicco 'feels much more solid, easier to use and rotate' — direct unfavorable comparison. Evenflo is less solid, harder to use and rotate than its competitor.
I just did this for my very big 6 month old. I'm with you and didn't want to spend so much on the Chicco Fit360, but lo and behold we ended up with two of them. I love it and don't regret the spend. I originally started with an Evenflo revolve slim but didn't like it at all and it wasn't as comfortable. It's been relegated to the garage as a spare.
'Didn't like it at all' and 'wasn't as comfortable' — clear negative. Replaced it with Chicco Fit360 (which they love). Evenflo 'relegated to the garage as a spare' = effectively abandoned.
The CPSTs don't recommend them and they often have over inflated limits and the revolve gets stuck easily if debris (sand etc) gets in the mechanism. Also if it gets stuck you are out the whole seat.
Reports CPSTs don't recommend; cites specific mechanical issue (gets stuck with debris like sand) and total loss if mechanism fails.
