Graco AirBooster

Best Price: $80.00

from www.amazon.com
my only minor complaint is that since the seat in our actual sports car is so upright in the back, and this seat molds perfectly to that seat, he is generally too upright to sleep without his head
from www.amazon.com
i found that the upright position is a little too upright (and not easy for a little one to fall asleep and stay asleep).
from www.amazon.com
great head support, including side wings, which helps keep the head upright while they are sleeping rather than bobbing back and forth or drooping down.

Graco Nautilus 3-in 1

Best Price: $163.00

from www.amazon.com
the reclining feature is nice, but baby is still pretty upright(i haven't found a forward facing car seat that reclines as much as i'd like, but i am sure for safety reasons there's only so far back
from www.amazon.com
one such review stated that her child's head stayed upright when he/she slept in the car with this seat.
from www.amazon.com
he is a car-sleeper and he had no problems sleeping in this seat from day 1 - the headrest keeps his head upright (unlike our old seat).
from www.amazon.com
you and your children are safer sitting upright than leaning too far back.
from www.amazon.com
he fell asleep in our test drive and his head stayed upright.

Britax Regent

Best Price: $170.00

from www.amazon.com
it is huge like other reviewers have posted, and we had to put it in the middle of our bench seat in our yukon; i didn't like how upright the headrest of the car's seat made the regent sit.
from www.amazon.com
it sits very upright, making it difficult to sleep.
from www.amazon.com
the seat sits too upright unlike the decathalon which is more for his size.
from www.amazon.com
sure enough they were so i brought them back to their upright position and reinstalled again to see if that would make a difference.

Recaro Young Sport

Best Price: $259.00

from SK Calkins, www.elitecarseats.com
i haven't figured out how to switch it back to completely upright from the semi-reclining resting position, as now that it is strapped in it won't move.....maybe we will have to unhook it to allow it
from Danny, www.elitecarseats.com
in the recline or upright position if he wants to look around he just moves his head forward and being in the center of the backseat he can see all he wants.
from www.amazon.com
plus when he sleeps he is upright and his head is nicely supported, he is not slouched over like in the regular booster that we have.
from Anonymous, www.elitecarseats.com
in harness mode, the seat sits more upright than non-convertible seats, which is ok as long as your not transition directly from a "bassinet" type seat as your child will likely have trouble sitting

with the marathon and the graco both installed correctly, my son's head falls forward in the graco seat as it seems to sit him slightly more upright.

in less than five minutes, her head was bobbing around, padding was so horrible, her headrest was so stiff and upright that she was struggling to get out.

Britax Roundabout

Best Price: $230.00

from www.amazon.com
it was also one of the only upright car seats that would fit rear facing in our two door car and still alow my husband to fully put his seat back.
from www.amazon.com
put your knee on the seat to weigh it down, tighten the seatbelt, and then put the plane seat back in its upright position.
from www.amazon.com
the only reason i gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because it was challenging for me to install and even though my husband got it in there pretty well, it still seems too upright and its base doesn't sit
from www.amazon.com
this seat is great rear facing, reclines for when they are tired or sits nice and upright when they are awake and want to see around and out windows.
from www.amazon.com
the recaro sits a bit too upright for either of those activities, unless you use some kind of towel or noodle to adjust it.

this is bigger and sits more upright than my old graco seat; so it's harder to fit in a smaller car.
