Very happy, have one in each car. Secure and easy to install, our bubba is very comfortable in it.

I bought one at toysrus and we fell in love with the nextfit. So glad I could order a second for our son. He fits so well. The price was great and shipping was reasonably fast. The k you.

Well pleased with choice so far. Seat seems to be one of the safest and most comfortable seats available.

This item shipped in less than 1 week. Would not hesitate to purchase from Albee Baby again.

Well made, heavy duty. Makes me feel much better about transporting my grandchildren than I would have using some of the less expensive, cheaper feeling models I looked at. I like the weight range that it can be used for, and the front/rear installation option.

Fast delivery great product so easy to install with the latch system

We love this car seat great color reclining positions padding all excellent.

This car seat is awesome. My 6 month baby is less fussy in this seat. Before traveling was a nightmare, now it's a little more pleasant. The set up was not to difficult. And getting the baby in and out is easy. I'm thinking about purchasing one for my three year old also. I love the style and comfort.

My daughter outgrew her keyfit and the nextfit is amazing. Very easy to use and I love the recline positions!

We bought this seat because I was unable to get a carrier seat in the back of my car without dumping my infant sideways. Also, we did not want to have to spend another $200-$300 in 8-9 months when our child outgrew an infant carrier seat. I love the way this seat feels, it's soft to the touch and I don't have to worry about scratchy material on my baby's skin. It is very easy to install and adjust. The buckle on the Chicco products are the best I've found; with most other brands I found myself almost breaking my thumb to unlatch the buckles. My child is still 6 wks old and this seat is in my 2-door 2005 Civic (because it's extremely difficult to get a carrier seat in the back without tipping it sideways). The main gripes I have about this seat are that the hard plastic parts of the harness that clicks in between her legs are long and they feel like they dig into her. Also, the shoulder straps are quite large for a very young baby. The buckle is short when the infant insert is in place. The only other con is that having a convertible carseat in a 2-door is extremely difficult!!! I have to carrier her to the car (in frigid weather or rain, unable to carry an umbrella), climb into the back seat through the driver's side, shut the door and lock (a safety issue if you leave the door open at a store or mall in a big city), remove her blanket or big snowsuit, lift her up above the high sides of the chair almost hitting her head, strap her in, unlock the driver's door and crawl back out to get in the front, and do all in reverse to remove her from the car. because of the high back and sides there is no way to get her in from the passenger side without getting into the car, I would be unable to reach the buckles or put them on from above. I am hoping that once the seat is turned around when my child is bigger, that these issues will resolve and I will love this seat!

very good

I Love this seat! I have twins and I experimented with several car seats before choosing this one. My top two picks are the Chicco Nextfit and the Evenflo Symphony DLX. But... Chicco wins. Here is what I am looking for: Comfort. Comfort. Comfort. We are road warriors and travel by car A LOT. Chicco is the comfy seat we have tested. Price: I did not want to spend over $300 per seat. I am sure there are many seats out there that are amazing, but they are out of my price range. Also, I do not have a latch or tether system in my car. While this seat does use latch easily, it is also so easy and extremely secure using seat belts. It is heavy, this is not the seat to use if you have to move it from car to car, or use for airplane travel. I have done that, and it is a work out to shlep this thing through an airport terminal. The evenflow symphony is nice too, and about a $100 cheaper. For a while, I had one Evenflo and one Chicco in my car. All I can say, is that on long trips, which ever twin was seated in the Evenflo, would start to cry inconsolably. So, I would switch the twins seat and put crying baby in the Chicco, and guess what? No more crying. Why? Because it's the ultimate in comfort. That's why. There are a few cons. My older Chicco has shoulder pads that I cannot remove. And it was a common complaint, however Chicco has listened to the consumer and this never round of Nextfit's have shoulder pads that just velcro on and off easily. Both my 2013 model and my 2014 model, the seat pads do not come off easily. So far I have only spot cleaned them.

Great price, quality construction.

I purchased this carseat after reading many reviews. I like that it has 9 recline positions, super easy to install correctly, and it is not as wide as many other carseats. The material is really quality and the machine washable fabric was a must for us. We sometimes have grandparents or babysitters who use our carseats without us, so the levels on either side make me feel really confident that it is installed safely. Plus the chest strap is clearly labeled with rear and forward facing settings. The latch system is really easy to use as well.

I have to say, I have not used this seat with an actual child (of my own) yet, but practiced with a teddy bear, which is much smaller than any baby I will have. I was able to get the bear in the seat plenty snug and could have made it even more so if need be. The recline feature is fantastic for newborns, as well as the newborn insert (5-11 lb). I see no reason to buy an infant seat if you buy this convertible. Note about the recline feature, there are specific levels for rear facing as well as forward facing, so pay attention to those. And as always.... read the instruction manual!

This car seat has been nothing but greatness for us! I did so much research on convertible car seats that I now feel like I can write a book about Convertible Car Seats 101! Too much research! I was stuck between 2 Car seats this Chicco Next fit and the Britax Advocate. We purchased the Chicco Nextfit and have been very pleased with this decision! The car seat is so cozy for your little one, very safe, and very stylish! I really enjoy being able to recline the car seat..it has 9 different levels! It's not bulky... Thank goodness! I was very worried about the car seat being too big for my car, I drive a Ford Escape and this car seat fits perfectly! My friend purchased the Britax and it is much bulkier than our Chicco and the Britax does not have as much padding for your kiddo to sit on. I can see how the shoulder padding pieces on the Chicco would be too large for an infant but for my child who is 1 these pads don't bother him at all. I believe that you can contact Chicco and they will send you replacement shoulder pads.

My son normally gets over heated in his carseat. That did not happening this one. Chicco is easy to install and sage for my one year old to stay rear facing until he is two.

Got a 20% off and free shipping. It was a good price for the Chicco convertible car seat. Very nice quality and build. I receiv ed it on time. Had a good experience with Albee baby

Good

Very pleased and happy with my purchases at albee baby

Very easy to install, like all the Chicco car seats. Sturdy, comfortable with lots of padding. The recline feature is great, it can lean back to the level of the infant Keyfit, or very upright for a larger child. We moved our son into this from the Keyfit at 8 months but I'm pretty confident we could use this from day 1 for next baby. Only criticism is the straps are slightly difficult to get around my son's shoulders. I think that is a combination of 1)getting used to buckling him in while in the car vs in the house and 2)the straps have to come from behind the shoulder blade for babies, and adjusts up to above the shoulders when child is an older toddler. So a necessary design in order to be used for such a big age range.

I bought this for my daughter (she's 10.5 months and was originally in a Keyfit 30). She still fits in the keyfit, but this gives her way more room and looks a lot more comfortable for her. The fabric and padding is great!! It seems super comfy compared to other competitors convertable seats. I love the multiple recline options...but you can only use a few of them. There is a level in the seat and you can only use the recline options that match up with the level "range" depending on your car. For me I have about 2-3 level options for rear facing. I am happy with this purchase and would recommend it to everyone!

I have read numberless reviews on lots of different sites. The ONLY complain nt that I have ever come across is the strap covers. People done seem to like them for a few different reasons. When I read that people were taking back an amazing seat JUST because of the strap covers it was silly to me! The first thing I thought of after reading this was why don't they just cut them of?! Seems very logical to me. So when my seat came that's the first thing I did. Then I replaced them with my own soft Minky ones that can be washed and removed. I prefer my own covers anyways so I probably would have cut the factory ones off anyways even if I didn't read all the reviews about how much people hated them. FYI the straps came off very easily, I used a knife that wasn't even very sharp and they came right off! I'm very happy with this seat, it's so padded and comfortable feeling. It feels like a baby recliner! I love it! So don't take the seat back just because of a silly strap cover, that just boggles my mind! Cut them off!

I love this seat, its super easy to install correctly and is easy to adjust. highly recommended. love the multi recline positions for the perfect fit in nearly every car.

Fits well in my small car, takes up a bit less room than the nextfit. Looks comfy and was pretty easy to install but the harness is a massive issue and impossible to tighten tightly enough for my liking.

i bought this car seat because it could recline so much. we bought a new car & the back seat was sloped differently than our previous cars so our old car seat just sat our 5 month old too upright. this car seat eliminates that issue completely. plus i like that she's completely surrounded in this seat like she was in her infant carrier. the adjustable head & shoulder straps mean you don't have to take the seat out & re-thread the straps as baby grows. it took a little bit to get a really good fit when installing the seat. our only complaint is that it's a little difficult to pull the straps tight around baby, but this May get easier with time & we can still get a tight fit.

Our family loves any Chicco products! My twin sons loved this car seat out of many they have sat in! Granted they smiled but we took that as we approved! We loved this seat because of the safety ratings, 9 adjustable levels, the padded seat!

We had the Chicco key fit as an infant carrier and loved that. So we decided to stick with the chicco brand and purchased the nextfit. It's super simple to install the with the LATCH system and simple to put my baby in and out of. As other reviews have said, the straps are kind of difficult to tighten. I literally grab with both hands to get them tight enough, but honestly that's not a big deal do me. It fits perfectly in my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee... And there's even more room now for the front passenger seat to go back. Lastly, the seat is super comfortable. I jokingly told my husband I wouldn't mind sitting in it as it felt super comfty. I've also had other people comment on how comfortable it felt. Overall I'm very very satisfied with this seat and would definitely recommend it to any of my friends!

I researched carseats for months before making this purchase and I am so glad that I chose the NextFit. It is easy to install, extremely sturdy, yet small enough that both my husband and I (both above average height) can fit comfortably in front of the rear facing carseat.

Great price! Free Shipping! Awesome Seat! doesn't GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!

Love the Chicco brand. This seat seems very comfortable for my little one and I love that it has different reclining positions. I will say that the shoulder strap adjustment button is rather stiff and but others have mentioned this and says that it will loosen with time/use. Otherwise, I think it's a great seat!

Very easy to install and comfortable for my 10 month old. I did not realize how heavy the seat was when I ordered it. It is not a seat that you want to take out at the babysitter's each day. Otherwise we love the seat.

We ordered the NextFit for our 3 month old son. The install was easy. It fits well behind the drivers seat in my Honda Odyssey. But...it is extremely hard to put a baby into. The covers on the straps make it so you can really bend the straps easily around a smaller baby. Then to tighten the straps around him, it looks easy but pulling the tightening strap is hard! I can't get it as tight as I'd like. For this fact alone, we will be buying another Recaro ProRide (our 21 month old daughter has one and we love it). We are sorry we tried something new.

We recently bought this for my 2 year old so she could stay rear facing longer. We put my 3 month old in it and he LOVES it. He screams in his keyfit and hates the car, but with this one, he is so content! We will definitely be buying another one for him! We have a britax for my daughter currently and she is about to grow out of it rear facing so I'm so happy she will be able to rear face a couple more years in this! I really love our britax, but since it doesn't last long rear facing, it's not my favorite. So far with the next fit, I'm loving the easy install, comfy seat, multiple reclines, and the fact that my kids love it. I've heard straps can be hard to tighten and strap covers are kind of big, but yhose haven't really been issues for us.

robust design, perfect carset for my son

I read the reviews on this car seat and many others. I thought I made a good choice but there are things that were difficult to handle on this car seat. The recline position with the nine levels, is very difficult to recline with the child in the car seat and with the car seat installed. I tried to recline the seat and couldn't recline to the first position with the car seat installed. Adjusting the head rest was quite difficult also. To get it into the right position for the height if your child was difficult. I kept trying to adjust the head rest and it kept going too low or too high. I was pretty frustrated.

Best car seat purchased after extensive research and store by store search. My son sleeps in car automatically and seat is very soft and sturdy. very happy with this purchase!

Love it.... we had been wanting to buy this for our soon for awhile and albe baby had the best price!

We have one of those babies who does NOT like car rides, so we played around with a few options. This was one of our best choices. We love the recline feature and ordered this seat after a Graco seat didn't work out because our sons head would just plop forward when he slept. This also has great padding and support. My only regret is not ordering this seat sooner. Also, Albee baby gave a great discount on the seat!

I was having trouble finding a decent seat that fit well in the middle back seat of our Toyota Tundra. Everything has a tendency to over-recline because of the very flat seats. Thanks to the NextFit's multiple recline options, this is no longer a problem! It installed easily (after I read the manual) and it is easy to adjust the harness height as well. I deducted one star because it is hard to tighten the straps. My little guy is almost 2 and 32" but only weighs 21 lbs. He loves his seat and it must be comfortable because he keeps falling asleep in it!

product received on time and in very good condition as advertised, very good service and product, will do business again.

I should start by saying that we used a Keyfit for our last 2 babies and have 2 Britax convertible seats purchased in 2007. All of our car seats are expired and baby number 3 is on the way so I ordered a new Keyfit and figured I would give this a try for our 14 month old. I love that the seat seems very sturdy and safe and like that it has many recline options. I don't like that it takes me 3 times longer to load my 14 month old in this seat vs the Britax. With baby number 3 on the way I don't have time for this. The straps are difficult to pull tighten down. It does not have velcrow to secure the straps on the outside of the seat when loading in and out so they are constantly stuck under him. In general the straps seem shorter than in other seats and not long enough to flop over the edges. It is also a really deep seat which I'm assuming adds safety but it makes it harder to get a sleeping baby out because I have to dig under him and lift further.There is nothing wrong with this seat it's just not as user friendly as others. I think it will ge easier to use once my son is bigger but for now I'm making my husband use it while I find an alternative.

We love Chicco. We used the keyfit and the nextfit just seemed like the logical choice because we had loved our key fit so much. The one thing I will say is that because it is a very new seat on the market chicco keeps making little changes with the seat. If your seat has a manufactue dat before oct 2013 the chest clip will say rear facing for one slot and forward facing for the other. They have changed that now you can use either setting in either direction. The clip is still the same so no worries if you have the seat that was manufactured before it just doesn't state that specification anymore and the parent can choose which setting fits their child best. Also with the seats manufactured after oct 2013 they have changed the shoulder pad so that they are not as stiff , don't have the rubber backing, and can be more easily removed if you wish. The car seat is safe to be used with either version of shoulder pad or even none at all if you so wish however if you have the older pad and would like the new one you need to go to chiccos website and find the movie on how to remove the shoulder pads. You can then order new ones if you want the updated one from their parts section on their website for only $5. Like I said all are safe it is just user preference. I love that chicco has listened to the feedback from parents and are making this the best seat possible. Love chicco and and am VERY pleased with the nextfit!

Our 4 month old son was to big for his keyfit 30 so we purchased the Nextfit. I was set on a Britax Pavilion, but when I went into the store to try out the seats, I found that the Nextfit was much easier to use. I am a big fan of the 9 reclining positions as my son likes to sit up as much as possible. The synch system is easy to use in getting the seat securely attached. Love Chicco and glad they finally put out a convertible seat! The only thing that gave me pause is that the chest pads are not removable for washing.

I really like everything about the seat (ease of installation, size, adjustability) with one exception. It is very difficult to tighten the harness once our baby is strapped in. I had a chicco keyfit 30 with the same design and it was very easy to tighten. I'm not sure if it's the bigger straps, bigger shoulder pads or some other issue, but both my husband an I find it challenging and think it takes too long to get as uh fit on our baby.

The padding on this seat is extra comfy...firm, yet soft.

Not sure if I received a bad car seat but it will not fit in my car and barely fit in my husbands the straps to buckle the sit to the car are not long enough. The big selling point to it is that you can easily tilt the sit back. This one will not move, both my husband and I tried to tilt it and no movement. Not happy with the quality. I have the infant car seat and love it.

I've only been using this car seat for about a week but I love it. My baby girl is 5 months old and we also have the chicco key fit but we needed another car seat for my car. Using the key fit my LO would cry anytime if stopped the car even at red lights. Since using the nextfit she is just as happy as can be and never even fusses! It is a lot bigger and I have to push the passenger seat all the way up but I have a tiny Mazda 3 so it's expected. This was def. a good investment!

Great purchase, we had the Chicco Key Fit 30 for my son and we loved this seat but since he is now 9 months we decided to move him to a bigger seat and he is much happier. He has more room and is able to move around much more. I also love the recline option this way he can still sleep comfortably while in the seat.

My 7 month old loves it and it looks great and feel very secured. We absolutely love it!
