Convenience and ease of installation
Super easy to install the base in the backseat. It takes about 10 seconds to remove the base from the backseat when installed with the latch system. Overall very easy to adjust and know it is installed properly with the built in tilt levels on the base. It feels of good quality and has a bit of weight to it. Overall I like the design of this seat as I can leave the base installed in my car and purchase a second base for my wife’s car and the seat just snaps into place no matter what car we use. I also find it rather convenient to have the fold up stroller which the seat also snaps onto quickly and easily when on the go.

Worth the extra $$
We’ve owned 4 Chicco car seats in the past for other children and they lasted well. I decided on this seat for our preemie, due to the breathable fabric. It’s worth the price. The cushioning is better, the seat cleans up nicely, the fabric is extremely soft and breathable, and there are no harsh chemicals. Not that it’s due to her seat, but she passed her car seat test on the first try and loves being in the seat during trips.Note: color is more of a dark gray that leans slightly blue rather than a blue color. I was slightly disappointed but it does look nice.

Chicco is THE way!!!!
I am still in shock that this car seat from Chicco came up for review and had to grab it! I had a few mom’s to be in my life and was able to gift it to a mom whose baby was coming early. She was in the hospital stressing about how she was going to bring baby home and she was in tears when I brought it to her. As someone whose baby also kept trying to come early, I remember crying at work over not having a car seat for her. The most important aspect to a car seat is its safety and Chicco is the best brand out there. After seeing this car seat I immediately upgraded both of my kids boosters/car seats to Chicco and there is no turning back.While I don’t know if I’ll ever have another baby, if I do, I’m coming back for THIS car seat exactly. I’m someone who has had Nuna and other high end brands and honestly, they didn’t compare. This KeyFit car seat is so comfortable especially for newborns. Tons of padding and support and all the mechanisms to keep baby safe. I love the sun shade and how it’s expandable and secures with magnets! I also love that you can unzip the fabric and reveal a mesh panel so your baby can get adequate air.For me, I could feel the amazing quality in the fabric and materials that make up this car seat. It also looks so sleek and nice. Nothing about this car seat feels cheap. My kids love this brand and they now have a supporter for life.
