We recently purchased this carseat since our youngest outgrew her infant seat. I should tell you that our oldest has been happily using an older Evenflo Triumph Advance DLX Convertible Car Seat we bought her about 1.5 years ago. But since then, Evenflo has come out with the “Advance LX” line of seats and it looks like they are replacing the DLX line. We really liked our older DLX seat, and we love this one even more.
It does solve a few of the quirky issues that the older DLX line had: the harness belts no longer run from the seat to the shoulder and then back down to the buckle again - now it’s just a single belt that goes from the shoulder to the seat. That makes adjusting a lot easier! Another new feature is that the shoulder belt height is adjustable without taking the back of the seat off - you simply move it up or down by grabbing the red tabs and moving them. To top it all off, this seat can handle kids weighing up to 50lbs forward-facing - the older DLX line goes up to 40lbs.
Aside from those differences, everything else is pretty much the same as the DLX line, and that’s a good thing. The harness is still adjusted very easily by using the two knobs on the front sides, and it’s just as comfortable for the kids as the original. I can’t tell you how convenient it is to be able to adjust the harness by using those knobs, rather than by pulling a strap in the front.

Great seat!
I was looking for a carseat that would do both rear and forward facing and I that my son could use for the next couple of years.

Love this seat, great quality. My daughter loves it. She fits very comfortably and actually sleeps in it all the time. It reclines nice for babies under 1 which ones one of my main objectives that I was looking for in a good car seat. Its big, but what car seat that is comfortable and safe for baby, isn’t? would definitely recommend this seat

We bought this convertible car seat based on the reviews and have been very happy with it. Shortly after we bought this one we decided to buy a second car seat for my husband’s truck. We don’t travel in that vehicle as much so we bought a cheaper car seat that adjusts using the pull strap in the bottom center. It only took a few uses to realize we like the knobs on the Evenflo MUCH better. The Evenflo also reclines nicely for when it is rear-facing with an infant, which is absolutely necessary. We are expecting our second and our first son has not outgrown this carseat yet, so we are going to get another one. I wouldn’t even consider a seat that uses that pull strap over this one with the knobs. It is just so much easier.

Nice chair
Installing this chair was somewhat tricky:
1. Instructions for the rear-facing installation were unclear
(for instance, you should ignore the direction “cross…

Easy to Install
My 8 month old son fits in it quite securely and has plenty of room to grow! It was easy to install and seems to be quite solid.

Must have, easy adjusting car seat!
I bought this for my son when he was around 7-8 months old. We own a Toyota Prius and put it in the middle of the backseat and there was very little room on either side for…

Great carseat- would recommend!
We have two of these; one in each car. I like that this has the 3rd strap near the back of the head to anchor into the back of my wife’s SUV seat.

Review of Evenflo Triumph Advance LX Convertible Car Seat
Love it! My son (11 mos) fits perfectly and the belts tighten and loosen perfectly. It is so much easier to use than his infant seat was.
