Who the Revolve360 Slim 2-in-1 Rotating Car Seat fits

This seat covers 2 stages, and a child has to meet every limit of the stage they are in. Check the date label on the shell before using a hand-me-down; every seat has an expiry.

Rear-facing harness4 to 50 lb · 17 to 48 in
The child faces the back of the car, which keeps the head, neck and spine supported in a frontal crash. Keep this mode as long as the child fits it.
Forward-facing harness30 to 65 lb · 35 to 49 in · from 2 years
The child faces forward in the seat’s own harness. Use the top tether every time, and stay in the harness until the child outgrows it.

How the Revolve360 Slim 2-in-1 Rotating Car Seat installs

Recline
On-the-go recline. The recline angle is what keeps a young baby’s airway open, so set it before tightening the install.

Every install is a fit between one seat and one vehicle. Read both manuals, and use a free inspection station if anything is unclear.

Will it fit your car?

At 16.9 in at its widest, this seat is one of the narrower ones in its class and is a candidate for three across in many mid-size cars. It weighs 28.2 lb, which matters if you will move it between cars or carry it through an airport.

  • Check your vehicle manual for lower anchor positions and any head-restraint rules.
  • Rear-facing seats need front-seat room: try the install behind the driver before you commit.
  • Certified for aircraft use, so it can travel as a seat rather than checked baggage.

Is the Revolve360 Slim 2-in-1 Rotating Car Seat recalled?

NHTSA currently lists 3 campaigns naming this Evenflo family: 26C004000, 25C010000, 25C003000. A campaign names a family, not always every build, so check your seat’s model number and date of manufacture against the campaign itself.

I have not reviewed these campaigns for this model yet, so shopping links stay paused here.

Before you buy

  1. Weigh and measure your child. The limits above are the manufacturer’s, and a child has to meet all of them for the mode they will use.
  2. Confirm the exact version. Colors, retail exclusives and model numbers change limits more often than you would expect; Evenflo lists 9 colors of this seat.
  3. Read the manual before you buy, not after. It is linked above and holds the fit rules, the install methods and the expiry.
  4. Check recalls by model number and date of manufacture, and register the seat with Evenflo so you hear about the next one.
