Verdict

The Rava installs with belt-tensioning doors that pull the seat tight without body weight. It rear-faces to 50 lb, the joint longest here. Fabrics zip off for washing without rethreading the harness.

It is wide: three across will not fit most back seats. At $480 it costs $70 less than the Pipa RX, yet never leaves the car. Two-car families should price two KeyFits against one Rava per car.

What we liked

  • Belt-tensioning doors, no-force install
  • Rear-facing to 50 lb
  • Fabrics zip off for washing

What we didn't like

  • Wide shell, no three-across
  • Fixed in the car
  • $480 list price
