Keep your precious little one safe
August 10, 2016
My husband and I love the carseat so much we're going, to need to purchase one for our other car. It's pretty straight forward as well as using the basewhich you have to purchase separately. You can really tell how it goes with your infant and it's so well loved, I can't go anywhere without seeing otherparents with them. We personally haven't had any issues.

Easy to use! Just click and its locked unto the base!

Adjusts well to any type of car chair. Only thing is the seat belt loosens. They should not loosen! Compare to the britax advocate click tight seat belt, the chicco is lacking in a disturbing way.
Pros
  • Easy on and off base
Best Uses
  • Buy another base for use between two cars.
Cons
  • Seat belt loosens and does not tighten in place.

Light weight car seat that fits between my two Diono's in my Mazda Cx-5! I could not believe it fit in the middle, but it did. I love how easy it is to lift off the base as well. Well worth it.

Great seat. Easy to install. This is my second keyfit 30 as my first expired (it had been used for 3 kids). My 2 oldest were able to use the seat well past their first birthdays. Shipping was fast and no one could beat Albee Baby's price!
Pros
  • Easy to install
  • Higher weight limit

I have used several infant seats throughout my time as a parent and foster parent, and this is by far my favorite (and my husband's). It is very easy to install and adjust, and it is tested safe for infants down to 4 lbs, which we have needed for our youngest child. The only reason we are purchasing a new one is because the first one we bought has since expired. When we needed to replaced it, it was a no-brainer. Love it with the Chicco Keyfit Caddy, which we used with our youngest child as well.

Safe car seat and great price
July 8, 2016
I bought two Keyfit 30s for my (preemie) twins after having one for my older daughter (it had expired). These carseats are great - my kids seem comfortable, they are light to carry, every stroller has an adaptor for them, and most importantly, they are easy to install! Incorrect installation is the main reason why kids are injured in wrecks, so the fact that these are easy to install and easy to "click" in is key. Would definitely recommend to all my friends having babies - and AlbeeBaby is the best place to buy them: low prices and free shipping!
Pros
  • Safe
  • Lightweight
  • Easy to install
  • Easy to clean
  • Goes with most every stroller with an adaptor
  • Good price
Cons
  • This color is definitely a redish pink - wished it was more pink

I don't normally write reviews but I am extremely pleased with this car seat. We bought this car seat 6 months ago for our newborn. It has held up really well and was very easy to wash. Also very easy to install. We installed this car seat in the middle seat. Last Friday we were at a complete stop when a drunk driver rear ended us at 40 mph. My head smacked against the wheel and I suffered a concussion. My child was totally unharmed and only cried for a second until I was able to get to him. So thankful this car seat was made so well and held up against the impact. Sad that it has to be replaced but we will be purchasing another Chicco!

I bought the travel system that came with this car seat . We love the bubble system b/c it gave us piece of mind, knowing he was secure each and every time. Installing the base into my 2013 Honda Accord was a breeze as well. Loved it so much we gifted one to our friends when they had a new baby.

Haven't used this for our own baby yet (due in a month), but used it with my nephew. He came home from the hospital at just shy of 5 lbs so this car seat was recommended as a safe option for smaller babies. It is very easy to install and remove, and very user friendly- even to amateur car seat installers! Bought in the "legend" color and turned out to be a nice neutral option.
Pros
  • easy to use, lightweight, high safety rating
Cons
  • sunshade a little flimsy

Wonderful experience! I've been shopping for this particular car seat for several weeks! I found the best deal on it at Albee baby. Saved over $30 buying it from the website versus in store or from other leading websites. Delivery was quick! Would definitely purchase more items from Albee baby again!!

I bought this a few weeks ago but it won't be used until August when my daughter is born. I just wish I knew the only cortina strollers they sell now are brown, which do not match the Lyra carseat. I have a cortina cube stroller that's almost 4 years old that I plan on using but it's kind of worn out.

Great for Multiples! Easy to Use!
April 27, 2016
We bought these for our triplets, primarily because they were one of only a few seats that fit three across in our vehicle. We LOVE them! Over the past several years, we've used several different car seats for our nieces and nephews, but these are by far the easiest to install and use! They even got our NICU nurses' approval! Our littles are starting to grow out of them already, and I'm disappointed to have to give these seats up!

Quality lacking
March 11, 2016
I thought the car seat came with a cover that enclosed it but it doesn't. The cover only covers the top half. It is light weight like I wanted but it's not as nice quality as what I found in the store when I looked at them originally. I guess you get what you pay for.

Great - Safe - but...
February 26, 2016
Bought this car seat 5 months ago just before my daughter was born, loved the safety features and all the specs.. my daughter fit wonderfully in it since birth and we're still using it 4.5 months on... however, it was disappointing to see that the seams on the head rest have split - makes the product look really shabby - it really wasn't something I expected from a quality brand to have the seams rip apart in just over 4 months of mild use. Would be great if I could get just the head rest replaced so the product can look great again

My favorite infant seat
February 9, 2016
I am a child passenger safety technician (car seat tech) and mother of 3. We've had 2 KeyFit 30s as our original one expired before baby #3 arrived. As a CPST I get to work with a huge variety of car seats. The KeyFit is my favorite to install and use. It is also the easiest seat to use correctly each time. 9 out of 10 car seats are installed or used incorrectly. It is not often that I see seats installed and used 100% correctly. Being easy to use and easy to install is extremely important given the misuse rates.
Pros
  • Easy to install, easy to use, fits even tiny newborns very well.
Cons
  • The canopy can be difficult to extend/retract past the carry handle. The stickers tend to peel easily.

Great car seat!
February 4, 2016
The car seat came right on time, and I'm very happy about that. I haven't gotten to use this seat for my son yet as I'm only 6 months pregnant, so I can't say anything about that. I honestly hate seeing reviews where someone hasn't used the product yet, and for that I'm sorry. However, I have used this seat before while I was a nanny about a year ago, and that's why I chose this seat because I loved using it when it was for my job. The padding is amazing especially for small/premature babies. And the color on this particular car seat (pulse) that I received looks wonderful! The pictures you can find online don't do it justice. It is beautiful! I love how the padding is more mesh-like, rather than some other ones I've seen that don't seem as breathable. I really can't wait to use this for my little one. My only complaint would be that the canopy doesn't fully go back, and it can get in the way of putting the handle down. It doesn't bother me much, I've gotten used to it when I was a nanny and quickly realized that it doesn't interfere with getting baby in and out.

Safe carseat at excellent price
January 27, 2016
I love the color pulse. It is a true red and goes perfectly with my city mini stroller in crimson/gray. I used a Peg Perego with my oldest children but it expired so I chose this based on safety ratings and it seems to be much lighter weight than my old carseat. The price is also very attractive.

So easy

We babysit and pick up our granddaughters from daycare often, this seat is so easy to use. We have bought 3 of them for multiple families so far and are happy with the quality.
Pros
  • Versatile. Safe.
Best Uses
  • With an extra base in my car I just click the carrier into it making it an easy transfer car to car without having to have multiple complete seats.
Cons
  • Extra base price at $89 is steep.

I just got our keyfit 30 carrier and car seat base and am so pleased! Not only do I feel it is safe, but it is also concerned about comfort, which keeps baby happy! Things I am excited about: the sunshade extends down far enough to completely shade baby, the straps are so easy to tighten, and the insulation cover is brilliant (I dont worry about baby being cold because he can't wear thick warm clothes in the seat because there e is the cover. And the cover won't move around like a blanket would, it's great!) the carrier snaps in so easily to the base--grab and go! It's so convenient. The carrier is light to lift and easy to adjust for when our baby grows. Straps were easy to figure out. I recommend it! I love the look of it, too--bonus!

Great for safety and easy to install!!!!
December 23, 2015
Five years ago, when my niece was born I remember installing her carseat base (different brand) and trying to swap it out - what a nightmare! So when it came time to purchase a carseat for my own child, my husband insisted this was the carseat to buy for our son because it was extremely safe and the easiest to install. It took me five minutes to install the carseat and another 20 minutes of flipping through the manual in disbelief that it was that simple!!!! My parents even bought a base for their cars - needless to say, my dad is now in love with Chicco brand carseats! Unfortunately at 3 months, my son is now a whopping 27" and will soon hit the maximum height limit for this carseat - but I will be buying another Chicco brand when the time comes! I would recommend this brand to EVERYONE. Plus I love this color!

Great Infant Seat @ A Great Price

We love how easy this seat is to install into our cars. The base is quite possible the easiest we've ever installed! The seat itself isn't terribly heavy and does the job well for being an on the go kind of seat. It clicks easily into the base and a variety of strollers. We don't think you can go wrong with this seat, especially at this price point!

December 5, 2015
I am in love with this car seat!! It's beautiful, the picture doesn't do it justice. I searched and searched for which car seat to buy from Chicco. I originally wanted a unisex color but caved to the Lilla because all the other big items will be unisex for future children but wanted at least one girly thingy besides her room and clothes. I am so pleased with this, I haven't put a baby in it yet but so far so good. It claims there's pink on the edge but mine honestly isn't even pink it's more of a gray/white color. Which I am fine with because it could honestly be used for a boy too. Polk a dots may be a little to girly for a boy but I think it would be fine. The car seat over all color is a little darker in person then this but jes still beautiful.

We did so much research prior to choosing a car seat and this is the one that kept coming up at the top of lists over and over again. It has some amazing safety features and moms give it great reviews. Not too heavy and easily clicks in and out of the base. We bought the Chicco stroller as well and they connect perfectly. You can't go wrong with this car seat.

Best car seat for babies
November 7, 2015
The Chicco Keyfit 30 is my go-to car seat for infants. It is super-easy to install. It is light-weight and easy to click into the base. I love the color combo of the seat, but I'm not a huge fan of this particular material. It's not a soft as previous covers I've had on the Keyfit 30. Overall, though, this is a great option.
Pros
  • convenient
  • easy to use
  • light-weight
  • easy to install
Best Uses
  • infants up to 30 lbs or 30 inches
Cons
  • fabric of seat isn't the best

As first time parents, my wife and I chose the best rated car seat with the highest safety rating, which was the Chicco Keyfit 30. Thankfully, we have not had the opportunity to critique the crash worthiness off the car seat and hopefully never will. We have, however, had ample time to get to know the Chicco Keyfit 30 in day to day operation. The car seat is fairly easy to install, whether you are using the base or not. There is a built in bubble level on the base to take out some of the guess work during installation. Adjusting the straps is very easy, literally at the touch of a button. Beyond that I can't find anything good to say about the product. My biggest gripe about the car seat is the "sun shade." Right out of the box, I scoffed at it. Fully extended, it doesn't even reach the midpoint of the seat. If you can get it to stay fully extended, that is. The position locking mechanism is chintzy and if it ever held position, at the 3 month mark it is laughable. If you plan on going out during the daytime with your baby and value you baby's eye sight, I would consider other car seats. The carrying handle is sturdy and I feel confident holding it with one hand in all kinds of orientations. After using it for 3 months, the two hand operation on the handle adjuster has worn out it's novelty. It is rare two have two hands free now a days, and even for me, 6'4" tall, reaching over into the car to depress the lever on the other side simultaneously had gotten old. The last issue I have had, or more accurately, my wife had had, is the position of the base release. In our vehicle, we have captain's chairs in the second row. The base is installed on one of the captains chairs. When I drive I have my seat slid back almost as far at is will go. The base release on the car seat is positioned right behind baby's head and therefore squished up against the driver's seat. I, being taller, have not had as much of a problem getting the car seat out. My wife, who is 5'4", simply cannot. Whether it is the lower angle or close proximity to the carrying handle when she is trying to lift the seat out, I don't know. It is a problem for her. She does not have the same problem when SHE drives and the driver's seat is farther from the car seat. Maybe we should just put the car seat behind the passenger seat. I hope this helps in your decision to buy.

We have been using this car seat for our four month old son since birth and love it. It's super easy to use and install. Adjusting the straps for height is a breeze as well as installing it in the car. One of the main reasons we love this car seat is we live eight miles up a gravel ranch road that is pretty rough in spots and it's very padded and keeps our little one safe and comfy when he's in it. The extra visor is nice you can pull it out and use it or tuck it up under the canopy when you don't need it. I have washed all the fabric pieces and infant insert and they wash and dry excellent and still look brand new.this car seat is worth every penny!

This is my second Keyfit, bought for our 3rd baby. The material is good, wipeable and thick. The entire set up is solid and durable. I have many siblings, nieces, and nephews so have messed with quite a few over the past ten years. This is my go to seat for safety and ease of use. My only complaint, and a minor one at that, would be the small canopy. That said, it does the job and I like the flip up visor, although I don't know how much I will need it with an autumn baby.
Pros

Best Uses
  • Newborn, infant, multiple cars
Cons
  • Small canopy

We have been spoiled by this seat! It is so sturdy, safe, and easy to use. Ease of use is incomparable. It is so easy to install, with the seat belt or the latch system. We use the latch in our vehicle. We only have one base, but we may purchase another one in the future. It is so easy to put the seat into the base and I can take it out of the base with one hand. The handle is sturdy and easy to carry. The only negative I can think of is the side of the sunshade. I wish the sunshade were just a little bigger.
Pros
  • fits in small vehicle
  • ease of use
  • easy to tighten straps
  • easy to install
Best Uses
  • infant car seat, carrier
