I have always sworn by The Graco 4Ever car seat. It is a good, durable and reliable car seat. I bought my older daughter one back in 2017 and have never had any issues with the seat so naturally when I had my second daughter I didn’t hesitate to order another one. It was shortly after I received the new seat that I was cleaning my older daughters car seat. I realized that the cushion was beginning to wear and that a clasp used to secure the fabric was missing. I still have 5 years left before the seat is expiring so I decided to call and order a new cover. Well I was informed that Graco had discontinued making replacement parts for that seat. I am not sure how a company can advertise that a seat will last 10 years if they stop making replacement parts before it’s set it expire. So after speaking to a few customer service representatives one lady informed me that she was able to find a cover to fit my seat. Which I thought was interesting considering the other lady I spoke to searched high and low without being able to find one. I am waiting for that to arrive in the mail to see if it will in fact fit my car seat. So my only frustration is that they advertise a seat to last 10 years but then stop making the replacement parts for the seat. My advice is if you decide to purchase a 4ever seat, order a second cover to store so that in 5-6-7 years when one starts to wear you have a new one ready to use, just in case they discontinue making the replacement parts. I do plan to purchase another cover for my newest car seat so I do not run into this same issue. Other then that issue I do like our new seat (and old one) the seat is comfortable and the colors are nice. It is easy to wash and put back together. In the future if I recommend this car seat to others I will be sure to let them know about the discontinuation of replacement parts and to order extra just in case.
