Ok, I'm going to go ahead and apologize if any of you have this type of carseat. But I just saw a picture on facebook from an ex-coworker showing her 3-year-old in one similar to this. I was shocked! I didn't know these were around anymore. I remember my cousin being in one like this 17 years ago!

I posted this exact question last week

My Mom watches my nephews a couple of days a week.
She was given a carseat like the one pictured from her niece to use in her car...she took it to the fire department to have it inspected and they said it was absolutely safe to use and installed it for her.
