does anyone know how to disassemble the harness as well or a good way to clean it? We had a puking accident and its all over the straps!

I snapped one of the clips at the bottom 😣 can it still function with only one?

How do you take the actual straps out??

Thank you ❤ Idk why they make it a pain to clean up the car seats for us parents

Sooo what would happen if I regularly wash it as in using hot water and a normal hot air dryer?

Forgetting to show putting the straps back in hooks at the end made me take it back apart twice to find the straps that you mentioned going back to look after that step should have been completely

The lower anchor strap must be in front of the crotch buckle strap per the manual (page 44).

How long did it take to air dry?

Thank you so much for making this. I had a terrible time with the clips in the front and was scared they were going to break. Hearing you say "the come right out, but it's not easy" was reassuring.

Per the manual you aren't allowed to use fabric softener . Only a mild detergent .

I believe I said to follow the instructions for the seat you have but this is just what I do. Also, the one I have only says to wash in cold water on a delicate cycle and to not use bleach. It doesn't say anything about fabric softener or only using a mild detergent. Could you have a different seat maybe?

Anyone know how to remove the seat from the base its self to clean the underside of the seat.

@@daintytoober I tried removing the back panel and instead of having a metal "splitter" (like other gracos I've seen videos on) the two straps are just attached to a single loop with no way to remove them. It appears they can be removed from the bottom of the seat but you can't reach your hand in there. I think the only way may be unscrewing and disassembling the entire bottom part of the seat.

This was a super helpful video HOWEVER I just wanted you to be aware you cannot use just any soap and you can’t use fabric softener at all. Mild soap is all Graco (and most other companies allow). Super scented soaps and fabric softeners break down the material and can compromise the integrity of the seat. Graco will tell you to most likely tell you to discontinue use of the seat if you have used cleaning solutions or anything other than mild soap and water to clean your seat.

There is some incorrect information in this video. You can not use any harness chemicals on this seat at all. No all purpose cleaner, fabric softener or Lysol can be used. Please refer to your manual when cleaning.

This was so helpful thankfully ❤🫡🥰
