Another car seat question...

Another 3-6 month crasher here...

My MIL wants to purchase a convertible car seat for DD.  It will be rotated between her car and my BIL's car when DD is with them (he doesn't live with her anymore, but will be around a lot).

Any suggestions for seats that 1) has a tall shell to rear face the longest for tall kids, and 2) are easy to install correctly?  I'm OCD about installation and I even re-check when DH has to adjust the seat in his car... I'm worried that they're not going to be as careful as me, so I want a seat that is easy to get right the first time.  I have a Diono Radian R120 for her in my car now, and I love it... but I'm not sure that it would be a good option for them having to rotate it between cars. 

I've got a few in mind already, but would love any suggestions from moms who actually use these seats!  Anyone have the Graco Size4Me 70?

    We have the graco smart seat all in one https://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12894137....... its one of the only one I know that goes into a base... maybe a pain to have to take actual seat out to go between cars but clicks into a base so if you are OCD about installation you wont have to worry about that as just the seat rotates........... we have this seat since we have a third row in our car... it is much easier to get someone in 3rd row .... we love it and the seat is not too heavy ..

    I have the MySize, which is the same as the Size4Me. It has a SUPER easy install- literally you can get a rock solid, perfect install in about 30 seconds or less. So so easy.

    I would not get the Smart Seat. They are huge, are outgrown in RF mode very early because only the lowest 2 harness slots can be used for RF, and are very expensive & bulky. Not what you are looking for!
