Review on 🚗 2018 UPPAbaby MESA Infant Car Seat - Jake (Black): Top-rated Safety and Style in Infant Travel by Christine Rowe

It's a little heavier than I'd like, but hey, this car seat - none of them are as light as a feather. Also, it takes up a bit more space in the car than I imagined - again, I'm sure the problem isn't unique to this particular seat, but to the entire universe of rear-facing car seats. Besides, I can't really complain. A little difficult to unbuckle the seat belt after the little one is buckled up. It feels like I have to press the button too hard for it to open, which means I'm putting pressure on it in the process - even with my hand (or rather a couple of fingers) between the buckle and my baby. I'm working on a technique to circumvent this problem. However, the ease of snapping the base in and out is incredible. So easy. Once you secure the base. This may take a little time and error depending on your car and whether you plan to use a seat cover to protect the finish of your car seat from the underside of the base (which we did on my wife's car but not on my). ). That said, it's pretty low maintenance, it's just that you need to check it from time to time to make sure it hasn't squashed the car seat cover so much that the base has come loose a little (never went from green to green red - but shows red from time to time). However, installing it in my computer was a nightmare. It's MY fault I drove a Mustang. For all of you who have a car with little to no rear seat space, rest assured that the seat will fit, albeit very snugly, and frankly probably not ALL the child seat to rear clearances recommended by the manufacturer of the seat fits front seat seats. Seating requirements when attempting to comfortably carry an adult mounted weapon. But setting up the base is going to be a big problem on a double run because you have virtually no wiggle room to maneuver on the dam thing to make sure it's safe (ie towards the green). Like I said it can be done, just be patient and stretch a bit before trying to push it in there because you'll have to play contortionist to apply the pressure needed to get everything in place. But back to the good. Things. It is also very nice that you can rock the seat when you put it down. So if baby gets a little restless, you can start rocking them gently or quickly, depending on your preference. And you can do it with your hand or your foot. Practical. But again, this is probably what will suit most if not all child seats. Anyway, yes it's a bit pricey, but with a seat that 1- looks great, 2- fits in both of our cars, 3- locks into the stroller without an adapter, and 4- has high safety ratings, I'd say it's worth it.
