  I don't have any recommendations for a 3 in 1, because I felt like, by the time DD is old enough for a booster seat, the government could change the safety requirements or there could be better safety designs than what is available now.  Plus, booster seats aren't all that expensive compared to car seats, so I'd rather just use a good convertible seat now and get a booster in a few years when the time comes.

  For the convertible, we have a Britax Boulevard and an Evenflo Momentum.  The Evenflo is overall easier to install and use, plus a lot less expensive, but it did not fit well in the backseat of my car and we just couldn't get it tight enough, so we had to put it in DH's car.  I have the Britax in mine.  I would recommend whatever you are looking at, try to go to a store like BRU that will let you do a test fit of their floor model in your car to see if it fits or not.

  We went with the Graco My Size 70, and it fits fine in my Elantra.
