The rotating dock when it's rear-facing has saved my back more times than I can count, and my toddler actually stays asleep during the switch. The merino wool cover feels noticeably softer than the polyester seat we had before, and I like that it's naturally fire-resistant without extra chemicals.
I was honestly skeptical about wool in a car seat, but it’s incredibly soft and my toddler doesn’t fuss nearly as much during longer rides. The rotating dock is a lifesaver for getting her in and out without contorting my back.
