Saved My Son’s Life
5 months ago
My husband, three-month-old baby, and I were driving home in a wind storm and a tree fell into the path of our vehicle, totaling it. Branches came through the car, including one that struck our son’s car seat and ended up resting right above his head. The impact bent the car seat, but our son didn’t have a scratch on him. So grateful for this quality product that saved his life.

This seems like a quality product, and we're excited to use it for our son soon! This car seat comes with a base, as seen in some of the pictures. Both pieces are very study yet lightweight.

Straps and height range to short.

Seems fine from a safety stand point but belts are too short to reach the sides and makes loading and unloading baby difficult. Also frustrating that our 6 month has almost outgrown it and we need to start shopping again so soon.

Great Car Seat

Would buy again
a year ago
As an extremely anxious FTM, I finally decided on this car seat after spending and insane amount of time reading safety reviews, watching crash tests, and freezing fabrics in stores. This car seat constantly ranked as one of the safest, and the quality of the material is very good. My little one has no issues falling asleep in this within minutes, so it must be pretty comfortable. It is a little heavier than most, but I appreciate that it feels more sturdy. The only complaints I have are that you have to press both sides of the handle to adjust it, which can get awkward when reaching into the car and impossible when trying to adjust while holding a baby. The shade also is pretty thick, so it gets stuck when trying to adjust it past the seat handle

We're loving it!!!
a year ago
We're currently using this seat for my 7 month old, and from day one this seat has been amazing!! The no-rethread harness is my favorite feature by far. That, coupled with the easiest base I've ever installed makes this seat top tier in my book. I have 2 chicco strollers (corso le and presto) that I use with this seat and they both attach easily and effortlessly. My little guy is just that, a little guy. So we'll have this seat for him well past his first birthday, which is important to us because we intend to rear face as long as possible. When we have our next little one we'll most likely be upgrading our little guy to the fit360 (can't wait to try that out). So stay tuned for that review!!

Q: What is the space limits of the space between the outside shell of the car seat and the back of the vehicle seat in front of it?
2 months ago1 Answer
A: We do not recommend having the back of the car seat leaning, pressing up against or wedged with the back of the vehicle seat in front of it. You would want there to be enough space to pass a piece of paper thru.
