Causes baby to sweat, buckles tangle, and sun shade comes off
June 11, 2015
The first and most important defect on this item is the material it is made out of. My baby wakes up drenched with sweat ONLY in this car seat. I have experimented in other car seats (in hotter temperatures) and it doesnt make him sweat and break out. Second, the buckles almost always get tangled and twisted. It takes me more time to buckle my child in this car seat because I have to take time and untwist the belt every time. Lastly, the sun shade on top is very flimsy. It comes off (only on one side - for some reason, the other side is perfectly stable) from the socket and I have to re-insert it back into the socket every time I open or close the sun shade. It also isnt long enough and when baby is rear facing in the back seat, the sun hits his face despite the fact that the sun shade is pulled over his face. His cheeks almost always get red. Its almost obsolete to have the sun shade because it is not effective and if you really want shade, you have to find another way to block the sun. having the sun shade is an extra task because it doesnt work, and it causes more time to re-insert it back from the socket because it always breaks off. Poorly made, without taking mothers into consideration, but, it is safe. So, if you want ONLY safety, this is the car seat for you. However, you have to work for it. My poor baby had issues because of the sweating this car seat was causing him. I have finally decided to use another car seat, and the break outs on his head have stopped, and he doesnt wake up soaking wet. My poor son!! It took forever for me to realize that it was the car seat causing the sweating. But now that I know, I wish I had read some reviews (because a lot of others have had this issue) and I wish I knew in advance that this car seat is making the baby sweat more than he should. Happy Parenting !
