  • I love this car seat. The fabric is great and the cover is perfect for having a winter baby. The only dislike is that you need two hands to hold the buttons down to move the handle. Apr 06, 2023

  • Loved the ease of this seat! The infant inserts were very nice to have and easy to take a apart when we needed to clean or he outgrew them. Jul 07, 2022

    • Ray S.

    • Baltimore, Maryland

    Never had any problems with this, easy to hold and rates high on consumer reports safety list. great car seat! Mar 14, 2022

  • Love the extra coverage of the zip sun shade. We had a January baby so the zip boot came in handy for the first several months. He stayed nice and snuggly even when it was snowing out. May 04, 2021

  • Works great, easy to install with the built in leveler, clicks into the base easily. Baby seems comfortable and has been using it for 15 months. Back is breathable. Jan 26, 2021

  • This was a great infant carrier! It was easy to use and my daughter seemed comfy. It’s a lot wider than some others so seems more comfortable Sep 13, 2020

  • We loved our Chicco KeyFit Zip. It worked perfect for us and when we needed to clean it, it was convenient to just unzip and wash. I loved the cover over the feet in the winter. Aug 01, 2020

  • Light and easy to transport. Had my son in this until he was 10 months old. Kept bases in all of the different vehicles he would be in,which made it so much easier than reinstalling the base each time Jun 09, 2020

  • Love this car seat it’s got #1 safety ratings and the fabric is so plush I know my baby is comfortable in this seat ! Nov 09, 2019

  • Love how easy it is to use this carseat. The infant inserts were removed almost immediately (he was only 7 lbs) and baby seems a lot more comfortable. Easy to get in and out of the base and stroller Aug 14, 2019

    We used this carseat for about a year. My son seemed comfy in it and often would doze off. I recommend getting a compatible stroller for the ease of quickly snapping it in/out. It is a bit heavy tho Jul 22, 2019

  • This was a great car seat for our girl for about 12 months. Pretty light weight, easy to switch between mine and my husband car along with the base. Lower cost for the amount of time you can use it. May 23, 2019

  • We have loved this car seat! It is easy to take apart to clean, washes well, easy to install and really comfortable for baby. Mar 07, 2019

    • Kalyn D.

    • Flemington, New Jersey

  • Great car set for newborn babies! Feels substantial and safe; easy to install in the car as well! Jul 10, 2018

  • Comes with accessories like zip on foam for warmth, head positioner, infant insert for proper fit & strap covers. Mar 20, 2018

    • Megan B.

    • Grand Rapids, Michigan

    Love everything about this car seat!! Only wish our son wasn’t always in the 95th percentile for weight & height his 1st year because he grew out of it at 8 months old. Feb 17, 2018

  • I need to cover back strap holes on windy days. Fabric is not soft and comfy for my baby, he sweat a lot. It was easy to carry. I use the cover but it is not easy to snap it. I trust Chicco's safety. Jan 14, 2018

  • I currently own this for my baby with special needs she loves it it’s oadding makes it more comfortable and helps her with her hypotonia Jan 10, 2018

  • This car seat is perfect! All accessories are so useful & nice to help keep baby safe & even warm/snug. Very easy to install, with/without the base, which is a winner with me! Used for both daughters! Dec 21, 2017

  • Love the over all design of the car seat. The bottom piece that helps cover baby and keep warm falls off a lot, the Velcro is wearing out and we have only been using it for 6 weeks. Dec 14, 2017

  • Love how easy this carseat is to install properly. Also love the infant insert, but had to remove the shoulder pads as they are too bulky. It's not heavy in comparison to my previous infant seat. Sep 30, 2017

  • The zipper leg covering is useless! Baby kicked off as quick as I could cover him up. Don't pay extra money for this model Jun 22, 2017

  • I love this car seat. It's lightweight, and keeps baby warm and cozy! Jun 09, 2017

    The Chicco Key Fit car seat is the way to go, hands down. Super easy to use. However, the "zip" features are not the greatest. In hindsight I think I would have just bought the classic version. May 24, 2017

  • Bought the BRU-exclusive Chicco Keyfit Zip Air. Haven't used yet (baby due in 2/2017) but will update after I've used it for a bit. Dec 08, 2016

  • This car seat is great. We have the AirFlow version and I think it helps her to not get quite as sweaty. I love the accessories (headsupport, newborn insert, shoulder pads, and the blanket shield) Nov 29, 2016

    • Sara E.

    • 06032, Connecticut

    We lived our car seat! We just outgrew by height pretty well before the weight limit. Nov 08, 2016

  • I bought this car seat because it matched the stroller I bought. My baby gets way to hot in this seat and the straps are not the best. Newborn insert is not good for a bigger newborn. Jun 30, 2016

  • This is an amazing infant car seat , I returned 2 others because I found out early on my daughter gets hot very easily, I have to take her sweater off during a long drive especially during the holidays since we had to travel and this has extra vents Making the car seat more breathable and also has the extended top to prevent the sun from hiting her eyes . It's not narrow and the material is very soft . It's also very cute colors with the rainbow zipper . I found that perfect for my rainbow baby :) Feb 14, 2016

    Great car seat! Very handy, baby can’t kick it off so it's perfect for winter. Wish the handle could move with one button not the two, hard to do while holding a baby and it requires two hands to move Jan 29, 2021

  • Love the soft fabric on this carseat. Didn't care so much for the shoulder pads since they were bulky. Most importantly, this keeps our baby safe and has superb safety ratings! Feb 21, 2017

  • I get so many compliments on this carseat. I love the built in blanket shield. It's perfect for the upstate NY winters. My baby does get a little warm in here, but I try not to over dress her. Mar 20, 2016
