Fantastic car seat
July 29, 2016
We love this car seat! In fact this is the fourth one we've purchased! We now have this car seat for both of our boys and it multiple cars. It is easy to install and easy to use. I thoroughly researched this car seat before we bought it the first time, and it got great safety ratings...a must when it comes to my munchkins. I would definitely recommend this car seat.

I did a ton of research on the perfect, convertible car seat, and knew I wanted to go with something similar to our Chicco Keyfit 30. Well, what better car seat than one made by the same company?! My husband and I both love how easy this car seat is to install and how quickly we can get our daughter in and out. Plus, you can't beat this price! Such a steal!

I recently bought this car seat to replace the Chicco Keyfit 30 for my daughter. This seat is very easy to install in the car. It fits great in my smaller 4 door car as well as my husband's truck. I love Chicco's products because I feel that they are very well made and user friendly. A car seat is one of the most important purchases, in my option, so I want something that is safe and gives me the assurance that it is installed correctly.

Love this seat
July 16, 2016
I have this seat for my 2 year old. I absolutely love it. It's easy to install and easy to get him strapped in tightly. We also have a keyfit 30 for my 6 month old (we used one for my 2 year old when he was an infant too), and I love it too. Since having my first child, chicco is the only brand of car seat that I will purchase. We are actually looking at getting my 6 month old a nextfit here pretty soon.

Easy install, feels secure

I ordered this carseat because it has the highest rating from Consumer Reports. The ease of installation and use is a great added bonus. It is huge and heavy, but it feels safe and secure in the car and that is what matters to me!

Like this car seat, bought one for my niece. I'm going to buy 2 more for my friend's kid and my baby. Perfect size for shipping to China via post office, they wouldn't ship it if it was one inch wider. Hope this is helpful for anyone who want to do the international shipping:)

Great seat, really frustrating to strap kid in
July 5, 2016
We just installed this car seat in both of our cars - we own 2. I love comfy my kid is in it - she's much more supported which I love. However, I hate that the straps are so hard to tighten! We have the CX and a regular one (not the zip). If I had been able to figure this out when we got the seats 6 months ago when we got them I probably would have returned the seats and gotten something else. Now I feel like we spent a fair amount of money on something we are only halfheartedly in love with. It makes me sad because I love the Chicco brand. Hopefully it gets better, but if not we are gifting/donating them and getting a different brand unless Chicco figures something else out.

I love this car sear. It was easy to install and I feel my child is safe and secure in the seat. The straps are super easy to adjust to buckle your child in and as your child grows moving the straps up to the next notch is super convenient just push a button and lift up.

This is such a nice, comfortable seat for my daughter! I can tell she is MUCH happier during care rides. The installation process was easy peasy, just like the Chicco infant seat was. It is ridiculously easy to use! I highly reccomend this seat!

Great Car Seat
June 21, 2016
We bought this a few weeks ago and have loved it so far. Our daughter would sweat a lot in her old car seat but now stays cool and dry in this car seat. It has plenty of room for her to feel comfortable and the fabric is great! But most importantly, it is ranked in the top 3 for safest car seats, which is why we purchased it. The only 2 down sides I can think of about this car seat is the size. If we have another child, it will be hard fitting another car seat in the back. Also, none of our bottles fit into the cup holder.

Great Seat
June 17, 2016
I was worried that the carseat might be too big for our car, but it fits well. I also thought it might be more difficult to get my child into it, but it is not much taller on the sides than her previous Chicco Key Fit 30. To adjust the height of the shoulder straps, you adjust the head rest, which is a little difficult to move up and down. I needed to use both hands and almost couldn't do it with my child already seated. Otherwise, this carseat seems to be a winner. Very comfy and cute!

Great Company!
June 13, 2016
I bought this car seat a few weeks ago from Buy Buy Baby. It was an opened box, discounted. The floor rep assured me nothing was wrong, other than it was a return. I brought it home, and loved the car seat! Beautiful, safe, comfortable for my 8 month old, and best part yet, easy to clean! However, the information panel on the back was broken, hence the return, I'm sure. Instead of lugging the car seat back to the store, I called Chicco directly. After showing proof of purchase, Chicco mailed me the panel free of charge! The company was easy to deal with, and they did not give me any hassle to replace this part. Definitely would buy from their company again! I can't say much on installation, as my husband installed it, but I will say he stated it was quite simple. As far as comfort, my son loves it thus far. He looks comfortable, and is no longer crying in the car as much.

Easy to Install
June 4, 2016
This car seat is pretty large. A lot bigger than the Keyfit 30, as it is meant to be for the older babies. So I was a bit concerned with installing it. However, it was super easy to install with the guiding water dot. It is pretty roomy so my daughter transitioned well from the Keyfit 30. Lots of room to grow so it should be my last car seat to buy!

Chicco makes us super happy!
May 31, 2016
We bought this car seat as soon as it launched in the US. Our son had not fully outgrown his Keyfit but I knew we had to have the Nextfit b/c of the good experience with his first seat. This car seat is super easy to install. The launch system works well in our older model Accord and new CRV. I love the adjustable seat belts and the tilt technology that allows you to adjust as LO grows. My chief complaint is how dirty the seat gets and you can't remove the padding to clean. We manage through it by hand washing and letting it sun dry. Air travel with seat is tricky, so make sure you purchase a car seat dolly. Otherwise we are so happy with our purchase.

Great for our small car
May 29, 2016
I got this seat for my 2007 Toyota Prius. It sits (rear facing for now) behind the driver side and I don't feel squished or too close to the wheel. Sort of wish we'd spent the extra money to get the NextFit Zip - to make cleaning a bit easier. I wouldn't buy this seat to have it reclined for an infant with a car as small as mine, but for other cars it may work just fine.

I had the Chicco keyfit and loved it so much I decided (after hours of research) that I would get the nextfit and am totally happy with my purchase. Not many car seats fit rear facing in the back of a Dodge Ram quad cab, but this one does and my daughter loves her new seat.

Our second Chicco Nextfit!
April 11, 2016
We bought this exact same seat one year ago for our current youngest child. I liked the look of it, the fact that it has multiple recline positions for a proper fit, includes a cup holder (some higher-end seats require all accessories to be purchased separately!), and Chicco seemed to have far fewer recalls than other popular brands. What I didn't realize was that this seat is incredibly narrow compared to other brands we've owned. Our toddlers have had Britax seats and now have Safety 1st, and the two of them take up the entire bench seat in the back of our van, so we can't even use the third seat back there. We're about to have our 5th child and need every one of our van seats! So it was an easy decision to purchase a second Chicco Nextfit for our upcoming new addition and put the two Chiccos in our third row so there's still a seat open for our oldest, who no longer needs a carseat. Albee Baby also had the best price I could find on this seat, the newer models seem to be priced a good deal higher than what we paid for ours last year. My only complaint with this seat is that the straps are a little difficult to adjust.
Pros
  • Narrow, low recall rate, attractive design
Best Uses
  • Limited space
Cons
  • Straps difficult to adjust

Quality product that gives peace of mind
April 7, 2016
We switched from a 6-year-old Britax to this NextFit and we couldn't be happier. The NextFit is easy to figure out how to install. Our kids went to stay with their grandparents last week and went between my parent's house and my in-laws' house. It gave me peace of mind to know that I didn't have to worry if the different sets of grandparents would be able to figure out the installation. Spot cleaning of the fabric on the NextFit is very easy as well. It appears well-made and my 2-year-old child seems very secure in the seat.There are 2 reasons I only gave it 4 stars. The first reason is because I'm used to the Britax that has the velcro on the armrests to hook the straps to so they don't get so tangled. Obviously, I can add my own velcro if it keeps bothering me, but that's just one more thing for me to do so it would be nice if it came with the velcro. The second reason I only gave four stars is because it is very cumbersome to take the fabric off and put it back on if you want to wash it in the washing machine.

Awesomeness
April 6, 2016
Great material super fashioned, elegant and comfortable by only pressing my hand on the cushions of the seat. Well made and designed for stage two babies (supported sitter, sitter, crawler). My baby who's 9 months now began to be annoyed when we put him in Chicco infant keyFit. Since it started to be tight and narrow to hold his curiosity. Chicco NextFit solved the problem it's wider now and joyful since my baby now can see the cars, buildings and lights wherever we go. Is it that perfect or I just love Chicco?

Love Chicco!
April 4, 2016
This car seat is great! When my daughter outgrew her Keyfit 30, I wanted to keep her rear facing a while longer & decided to see if Chicco had something to fit my needs. Behold, the Nextfit! She is very comfortable & has not complained once. I like how the pads are memory foam & her head does not roll forward when she naps when forward facing. I have a Honda Civic & it fits my small car. I usually bring the passenger seat forward so she has room when there isn't anyone else in the car. The seat is very heavy, but it is well worth the money knowing that my daughter is safe. It is easy to install & I love the latch system. My only complaint is that the covers are a bit hard to get off to clean, but that minor inconvenience isn't a set back. I love Chicco products & recommend this seat to anyone!

Great Car Seat-Fits very well in small car
March 29, 2016
This car seat had top ratings in Consumer Reports and that was a key reason I purchased it. It fits very well rear facing in my small car, a Cadillac ATS, and leaves room to scoot the front passenger seat back further than I ever could with an infant seat. It was super easy to install and is also easy to get my son in and out of. It feels very comfortable and seems super protective & safe. My son loves it and doesn't mind sitting in it for a 2 hour drive.
Pros
  • Highest rated convertable carseat in Consumer Reports, fits well in small cars even when rear facing, easy to install, easy to use, safe, comfortable
Best Uses
  • Small cars

I love that the seat is so safe. I love the color and the cup holder and how easy it is to adjust the shoulder straps. The only thing is that it's very difficult to tighten the harness straps once baby is in the seat, other than that, it's great.

Fabulous car seat!

We loved the Chicco Key Fit 30 that we had when our grandson was born, so the NextFit seemed like the natural next step, especially given its spectacular ratings. We are not disappointed with our choice. The seat is ingeniously designed and was a snap to install, even for this grandma! And Albee Baby was wonderful to deal with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Chicco NextFit or Albee Baby!

Great Carseat
February 18, 2016
We are happy with this carseat except for the black & white fabric near my child's head is all snagged up from the shoulder pads velcro. This snagging happened after using the carseat a couple of times when it was brand new, it snags extremely easily. The carseat is comfortable for my son and he likes being in it. It also looks safe. I wish chicco used better fabric on this expensive carseat and also made the straps a few inches longer.

Best seat on the market
February 18, 2016
We've had a NextFit for over two years and will be buying a second soon for our second child! We have had two KeyFit 30's as well and there is nothing as easy to install as a Chicco! I love how easy it is to cinch down securely (with less than 1 in of movement at the back of the seat) and cinch/release the shoulder straps on my kids. I feel they are incredibly safe and secure when riding in the car in their Chicco carseats!

Love this seat!
February 16, 2016
We have had this seat for almost a year and I am very pleased with it. I was looking for an extended rear facing car seat and after reading many reviews I decided to purchase both the Chicco NextFit and the Britax Advocate Click tight because I just couldn't decided between the two of them. I ended up returning the Britax because I found the Chicco much easier to use (buckle my child in), it was lighter and smaller so it fit into my Honda Civic better. The seat is well made, the fabric is good quality. I love everything about this seat. It not only fits into our Honda Civic, but also our Ford Taurus and our Chevy pickup. I am so fortunate to have found a car seat that fit with my car, was a trusted brand and most importantly can be used rear facing up to 40 pounds! We previously used the Chicco Keyfit when our child was an infant and I absolutely loved that car seat as well. I don't think we will ever buy a car seat that is not Chicco brand because we have had such good luck with them. Highly recommend.

I received this product for free from Chicco and below is my experience/feedback. I really like this car seat. Very easy to install into the car, which is great when my mom has to use it for my son in her car. Nice how long the car seat can be used for. Head piece moves up and down with ease. Tilting adjustment moves with ease as well. Only problem is adjust the straps at hold my son in. It's hard to pull the straps tight.

We bought this when our daughter turned one and she is now three and a half and we're about to purchase a second one for our six month old. I have nothing bad to say at all supper safe and comfy and no other car seats compare! The only down side is how expensive they are but hey $300 for a use of at least 5 years is a good investment in my book.
