This car seat is really sturdy and offers great value for money. I use it mainly in the front seat of my landrover (as i don't have rear seats or airbags!) and i will say that it's quite tricky getting my 9 month old into it as i still have him rear facing and the landy seats are quite high, so i have to lift him 'up and over'. However, when we use it in our car it is very easy to get him in and out of.
The only downside i have come across is that it's quite difficult to lift the seat off from the base on your own as you need to release a lever on each side and push the seat up from the bottom all at the same time - much easier with a second pair of hands. That said it's very easy to swap from vehicle to vehicle once you get the hang of it.
I particularly like the movable headrest which gives support as your child grows.
