Rental Car with Evenflow Tribute

[tammytaylor]

I am taking a short trip and renting a car and car seat. The car rental company stated that the Evenflow Tribute is the car seat that they offer. Do I need to be concerned or look at another rental company? I have a Britax at home and want to make sure the seat will be safe.

Thanks!

I personally wouldn't rent a car seat. What if you get there and they just handed out the last car seat to the person in front of you (car rental companies don't usually guarantee the car seat)? Or if someone doesn't return theirs on time, you may be out of luck. Plus, will it be clean? Will it include a manual so that you know how to install and use it? Do you really want to sit at the airport and read the manual?
