When we drove back home from the holidays, we needed to wash the seat's cover because of a diaper leak. While DH was trying to put the clean cover back on the seat, DD came over to help by pulling on the strap at the base of the seat that tightens everything once your kid is buckled in. Before we could do anything, she pulled and pulled until there was no more to pull. To use the technical term from Combi customer service, this DESTROYS the seat. No way to fix it. When DH called Combi, he was able to buy a replacement carseat for a discount--$50, rather than the $150 retail price. I suppose that was nice of them but I still don't like the carseat--too difficult to buckle.
