what parents are saying
The only con was that the strap was difficult to tighten when brand new. We took the strap pads off, which really helped. Otherwise, this is a great carseat, and are confident in the safety of this. (Jul 28, 2014)

Love these carseats and how durable and safe they are. I’m not impressed with the clip on cup holder, pretty pointless. Sep 09, 2023

My toddler absolutely loves this car seat more than the one in her dads car. It definitely feels more “plushy” and I love that I can unzip to clean it when it’s gross from snacks Aug 26, 2023

LOVE this carseat! It's my go to carseat. Was super excited when they came out with the zipper cover. Easy to install and I love buying one seat that goes from newborn to booster Aug 23, 2023
We have been using this for about 18 months. We started rear facing then turned it around. It’s a little bulky but we have a large vehicle that has no issues fitting in. Aug 10, 2023

So bulky and heavy and not easy to clean. It takes up so much space and my kids got so hot in it Apr 15, 2023

Another one of those seats that made me feel my baby was safe riding in the car with. Baby number one had these and got a lot of use out of it. Now baby 2 has the newer version. Nov 30, 2022

Love this car seat! The strap adjuster is really smooth, and LO seems very comfortable. Lots of adjustments and settings for rear or forward facing. Feb 17, 2022

Loved this seat when I could use it with latch. With the seat belt the lock off is terrible and I couldn't get a tight fit. Dec 22, 2020

A little bit heavier than the extend2fit. The quality is really nice and easy to tighten and loosen straps. Taking off the cover was a bit challenging. The snaps at the headrest were difficult. Feb 25, 2020

comfortable and safe. My child has often fallen asleep in this. When installed, it is very stable. Easy to unzip and clean the carseat when there’s a mess. Feb 18, 2020

I love that my two year old can still be rear facing in this carseat. I am excited that we can continue to use it when we turn her front facing too! Jan 09, 2020

So easy to install and fits in all of our cars. We have this and the Zip version. Spend the extra money and buy the ZIP version best car seat. One zip and you can clean the the cover. Jul 26, 2019

I can’t say enough about this car seat!! A breeze to install, a level to make sure it’s even and the zip cover for cleaning makes it worth the high price tag alone! Saves so much time! Jul 22, 2019

My daughter is very comfortable being in this car seat. It also fits very well with considerable room for front passengers in our Durango. Easy to install and use. Feb 25, 2019

Just as reliable as the Chicco Infant Car Seat! The release button is my favorite feature as it allows a quick exit maneuver, and the “recline lever” makes adjusting the “tilt” a cinch! Jun 07, 2018

This is OK. I didn't like it as much as the Keyfit. The shoulder straps are difficult to tighten at first. Easy to install. Heavy and bulky. Child is very comfortable. May 09, 2018

This seat has been great for us. It is easy to adjust and seems to be really comfortable. It is bulky but I didn't realize that it was an issue until I needed to get 3 seats across. May 08, 2018

Super sturdy and durable. I also like how easy it is to recline the seat. Jan 25, 2018

Secure install, son enjoys the ride. Able to use for extended rear facing. Fits well in small spaces. Dec 30, 2017

Seems super secure, safe and comfy. It is also fairly easy to install. Con: it is a bit heavy and it is wide so it probably would not fit three across in a car Oct 18, 2017

My husband loves this seat but I am not really a fan. I think its hard to install, and also hard to get a good seatbelt buckle Oct 10, 2017

Loved it for the younger age but as my child grew into a toddler it was harder to get her in and out of. We now use it frequently forward facing and it is not so bad. Aug 25, 2017

We like this car seat with the different reclines, the soft fabric, cup holders, etc... but the release button can be hard to push at times. Plus, this thing is bulky. Jul 20, 2017

Wide seat but huge features. Holds newborns all the way till need a booster. Easy to install in most vehicles. Compartments to hold latch when not needed. Adjustable while installed. May 23, 2017

Love the easy-to-follow guides on the side and the fact it fits in our teeny, tiny compact car! Thanks Chico! May 16, 2017

This is by far our favorite seat. It installs easy just like the Keyfit. It fits small babies and giant kids. The infant inserts are great and supportive. I love the high sides for our newest. A+ Mar 11, 2017

We love this carseat, we got it as soon as my son seemed too big for the infant carrier. I love that it converts from rear to forward facing and my son was comfortable all the way until booster age. Mar 10, 2017

This is our spare car seat in my husband's car. We also use this in my parents car as needed. Easy to install in car but it hard to tighten chest straps. Jan 15, 2017

I love our next fit! It's so comfy for my daughter and has kept her rear facing safely past age 2. Dec 26, 2016

Have this car seat in each of our cars. Takes up a lot of space when rear facing as many convertible car seats do. Fits way better when you are able to face it forward. Very durable, feels safe. Sep 21, 2016
- Emily O.
Laurel, Maryland
I love this seat. We have the model with a zipper. It's easy to clean and disassemble (and re-assemble). It's not made to go between cars often. It's very heavy. However, it is easy to install Aug 23, 2016

The most cushiony car seat in the store. And so easy to install and the height and weight limits are extensive Aug 09, 2016
- Stacy C.

I don't own one, but as a CPST I have experience. Fabrics feel great, install is a breeze after you read the manual. Babies can rear face for a long time comfortably and safely! Not too huge in cars. Aug 08, 2016

Fits inside of a two-door Nissan Altima 2008, so long as you don't put the seats all the way back. I didn't want to sell my car and I wanted something super safe. Win-win :). Easy to install. Jun 24, 2016

We bought these seat when my daughter was around 6 months! I can't stress enough how much I love this seat! It's super easy to install and it is so roomy! Mar 04, 2016

This brand continues to amaze me. Easy to install, self-explanatory when switching between rear and forward facing. Best: it will last a long time Worst: The strap is tough to tighten. Jan 22, 2016

Easy to install, solid, fits baby well. The straps are easy to adjust and it's easy to make sure that baby is secure. Currently using rear facing. Dec 23, 2015

Everyone else seems to love this, but my toddler outgrew this seat fast. It was hard to get her into the seat since the sides are so high and it sits them up higher. And it's pretty big. Not my fave. Dec 15, 2015

easy to install, easy to tighten/loosen straps, easy to adjust. Allows rearfacing for a long time, and the material is lovely. we have the purple colorway and we are super happy with this seat. Feb 15, 2014

My son doesn't like this as much as the britax advocate. Nov 11, 2013
This isn't the colorway that we have - but this is an amazing car seat. East to adjust - and works well behind me or my 6'2 husban . Apr 27, 2013
