Great car seat: my feedback

We were previously using the Keyfit 30 infant car seat and really liked it. I can't begin to explain how easy it was to install using their Latch system. But the kiddo got too tall and we needed to switch to a convertible seat. This version takes it a step further and will also convert to a booster, so this should be the last car seat we have to buy. And since these things aren't cheap that really helps with the value added.It's a little big, so hold onto the box and receipt and make sure it…

Pros
  • ‎Forward or Rear Facing Seat, Machine Washable Seat Pad, LATCH Compatible
Cons
  • Buckles may be hard to unlatch

It took me 3 weeks of reading reviews to buy this one

Third child. Ran daycare for 20+ years. This is the seat to get! It’s easy to install. It’s easy to wash. I can lay it back when my baby is asleep or set up when baby wants to look around. There’s not one thing I’d change about this seat.My 6 month old 18 pounder, rather long little guy loves this! Wish I wouldn’t have even bought a infant seat since this one is so perfect! (And his infant seat(britax) was so heavy & barrow.

Pros
  • DuoGuard offers 2 layers of protection with a steel-reinforced frame and EPS energy-absorbing foam that surround the head and torso, while a best-in-class 10-position headrest accommodates maximum growth
Cons
  • Fabric may fade over time

Button struggle good for me

Overall I really like this car seat. It isn’t too bulky, saves space with the folding cup holders, and seems comfortable for our son. My main complaint is the strap release button. It is so freaking hard to push! My husband and I take turns fighting with it. There’s a plastic piece covering it partially and the padding goes over it. So when you have the seat rear-facing, it’s at a terrible awkward angle to push. And if you have nails forget it!also I had read that the straps generally lay out…

Pros
  • Designed to deliver premier child fit and comfort at each unique stage, Fit4 makes it easy to correctly secure your child from birth through big kid booster for ultimate comfort, convenience and peace of mind as your baby grows to age ten
Cons
  • Can be difficult to fit into tight spaces

So far so good except.

Love this seat, super easy to install. Little big while rear facing and I can't wait till my daughter is old enough to face forward so I can recline my seat a little. My biggest issue is it is SO difficult to loosen the straps! I push the button and have to yank SO hard on the straps and they barely move. Idk why that is. The carrier I had for my daughter when she was an infant was so much easier and it was a Chicco too

Pros
  • Baby Products
Cons
  • May not fit with certain stroller systems

Great Car Seat on my review.

Our baby loves this car seat. It keeps the baby securely and gives them the same feeling as if they are carried in arms or in a carrier. It is definitely heavy, but once installed there is no moving. Installing the infant rear-facing was a struggle as it has its special mechanism to secure the car seat in place. But I think it is for the safety of the baby which is worth the time. Also, the instructional video helps in getting it right the first time.

Pros
  • 4-Stage FitKit System provides optimal fit and comfort through multi-staged construction and easy-to-remove layers, providing more room to grow through each unique stage
Cons
  • Fabric stains easily

Final Carseat on my review.

Love the idea that this car seat can go from infant to booster seat, and last several years! We did use a different Chicco infant car seat for the first 9 months, then transitioned to this car seat. The baby seems to like it more as he sits up higher and can look out windows. The car seat was easy to install and make adjustments. I feel comfortable with my baby in this seat as it is sturdy and well-padded. And best of all, I shouldn't have to buy another car or booster seat in the future.

Pros
  • ‎Foam
Cons
  • Hard to switch between rear and forward-facing positions

The foam back just shredder after 2 years

The foam back just shredder after 2 years, so plan to buy another in that time. Very disappointed as we have purchased several Chicco car seats and strollers. Buyer Be ware says infant to booster but if they only last two years it will not last for your child from infant until they need a booster.Update: The Company was good enough to replace the Car Seat so is above and beyond but at the same time it does not change the fact the the Styrofoam used failed maybe this is a one off but I have seen

Pros
  • The Stratosphere Grey color scheme is sleek and stylish, complementing any car interior
Cons
  • Can be difficult to secure child correctly

I paid for new but received used

I received the carseat on time but when we opened it we noticed right away some white dried up substances on the shoulder padding and the crotch pad. Almost as if a baby had spit up on it and it dried. I requested and bought new but there was no way this was not opened before.The overall carseat seemed nice and comfortable for my almost 1 year old. I'm glad it will adjust and grow with her until she's Eventually out of a carseat all together.

Pros
  • The Chicco Fit4 Convertible Car Seat comes with a five-point harness that can be adjusted to fit your child as they grow
Cons
  • Difficult to remove the cover for cleaning

Love this car seat!

First time mom and knew I wanted a chicco car seat for my daughter. I love how easy they are to install correctly. The amount of padding included is great too! Love that I never have to buy another car seat. I definitely recommend. The only drawback is there is no infant carry option but very small drawback considering we always had a wrap or carrier I could put her in instead.

Pros
  • With four different reclining positions, your child can ride in comfort whether they're napping or awake
Cons
  • Too much padding may make it uncomfortable in hot weather

Awesome warranty - my new review

I noticed my head foam piece was loose and when I checked it out. It was actually broken! I reached out to chicco wanting a new foam piece to put back in, they declared my car seat defective and sent me a brand new! I did have to cut the old one, but I highly recommend this seat!

Pros
  • ‎1
Cons
  • Difficult to move from one car to another

Premium Product for Precious Cargo

We were gifted the KeyFit 30 for infants and toddlers. We loved that so much that we ended up buying this one with plans for another. Solid construction, feature rich, easy to use, and from what I can see, very comfortable. No complaints from the little one. There are certain things in life that a person cannot skimp on and one is child safety.

Pros
  • ‎Machine washable seat pad
Cons
  • Headrest is too large for infants
