Great car seat
April 9, 2015
Great car seat. It is easy to install and easy to use. Adjusting the shoulder strap height is simple. I love not having to re-thread the straps. It fits in our minivan and Hyundai Elantra. The different recline settings are great. Overall it feels very comfortable, safe, and secure for baby.

This seat has been the best seat we've had out of 4 kids and 10 years later.It's easy to install, very cushy, easy to clean. We can fit it with plenty of room to spare In an 04 accent (rreally tiny car) and have the carseat in full recline with the drivers seat all the way back.

Dream carseat!!
March 22, 2015
Ever since I found out I was pregnant, I have wanted this carseat. My sister has one for her lo and raved about it. We used a carrier until our lo got too heavy to lug around. This carseat fits our car like a dream. The functionality of it is mind blowing. Fully adjustable. We won't need to buy another carseat for years! Best investment we made. My sister even sent me to albeebaby to make the purchase. Same site she used 2 years ago. Worth every penny, And I never pay full price.
Pros
  • Color options
  • full adjustability
  • cup holder
  • durability
  • safety
  • latch
  • manual holder
Best Uses
  • Any car travel

I purchased this car seat because i found it to be great for when my son falls asleep in the car it reclines to a good extend... the others ones do not recline as much. and it is great quality! I feel like my son is very safe in this chair. The only thing is that I am going to have to take it to a tailor or something so they can sow additional safety belt because the one it comes with is too short and my son is growing.. besides that I love the chair......

My wife and I were surprised with twin girls. That was two years ago this past weekend. With two other children (both boys) we have a lot of experience with car seats. We have had numerous over the past several years and this one is by far the best. It does cost more than some, but we have gotten more use out of this model than any other. Our girls have been rear facing in this car sear for quite a while. At two their feet are just touching the back of the seat. This car seat is VERY deep and so simple to install. The ratcheting feature is nice and works really well. One of the selling points for me was this seat is rather narrow. I'm able to fit two side by side and still tumble the other 1/3 of the mid seat so my boys can easily get to the third row where their seats are installed.
Pros
  • Narrow, ease of install, well made, easy to clean
Best Uses
  • Multiple children
Cons
  • None

We loved our Keyfit 30 so, when it was time to get a convertible seat, we chose the Nextfit. It seems very secure - even more so than the Keyfit 30 - and we're really pleased so far.

Easy to install and adjust. Selected this unit due to the additioal room you can gain in the passenger seat with a rear facing installation. Gained about 4"s compared to the Graco we were using. That was huge.
Pros
  • Easy to install and remove. Simple and easy adjustments.
Cons
  • None.

I have been using this seat for over 2 years now. We still absolutely love it! A breeze to adjust and install. Has seat belt lock offs. It has to be the squishiest and comfiest seat made! Chicco is a great, safe brand. The only downfall is that it is heavy, I wouldn't want to move this from car to car. I highly recommend this!

Love it!! A little heavy as compared to the infant carrier that we just upgraded from. But, that was expected and not an issue. Otherwise, no complaints. Easy to install, easy to use, and easy to clean. Lots of adjustments (which are not complicated to change) to fit baby just right. I would definitely recommend this carseat for safety, baby's comfort, and ease of use.

This seat is great. We have the chicco key fit 30 infant seat as well and love it. At first I thought maybe I would try a different brand like Graco but after comparing several different convertible car seats including the chicco, graco and others at toys r us it was plain to see that this seat trumped all of it's competitors. It is very sturdy and is great quality. The padding is nicer than any other car seats I looked at. My daughter is 11 months and was getting to be too big for her infant seat so she is really loving this new seat because she sits more upright. I am so happy with this seat and it is built to last.

A safe and user-friendly seat
February 28, 2015
I am a career nanny with 28 plus years of professional experience. I purchased this car seat for my brother and his wife based on extensive research. They are preparing for the birth of their first child. They are very pleased with the quality and safety features provided by the NextFit. It was very easy to properly install in both of their vehicles-a compact and full size SUV. They have already used this seat with a visiting relative who is 13 months old. She is safely and happily rear-facing in the NextFit. I have complete confidence that my niece will have the same positive experience.
Pros
  • Chicco technology including easy proper installation, the only car seat with nine recline options (to keep a child rear-facing as long as possible), variable chest clip,a safe harness system, properly reinforced head support for a growing child, machine washable cover...
Best Uses
  • Infant and toddler convertible car seat
Cons
  • None

Very nice, but HEAVY!
February 18, 2015
So far we like everything about this car seat, except how heavy it is. We have to transfer it from one vehicle to another periodically and it seems much heavier than most other car seats. Other than that, we are pleased with the perceived comfort level, and the safety level. We are currently using it for an average sized 4 month old. She seems very comfy in it and my older kids have asked me if they can have a car seat like hers because it looks so cozy and comfy. It is very easy to adjust this seat, which we really like as well.

This is a great car seat and fits comfortably in my Nissan Leaf. It is very easy to install and move to other vehicles. The straps are easy to tighten and my son seems to be very comfortable. The pads on the shoulder straps prevent any chaffing and do not move around. I am buying another one for our other car,

Awesome seat...
January 28, 2015
It's and awesome car seat with a very easy install. Wish they had both latch buckles the same...the left one is a bit frustrating when the seat is installed on passenger side but it does work with good planning. The cup holder does not fit much if anything at all...none of our sip cups or bottle fit at all. The straps are a bit frustrating when they puddle in the seat when you take your bundle out...cannot wait to get our CX model that apparently remedies that one. It's the best car seat and we have been swapping back and forth between a corolla and sienna for the past 8 months and takes 5 minutes at best to remove and install once you have a plan set where latch straps need to be adjusted. We started out rear facing and did the transition and this seat worked out beautifully. We did opt for a second because you just cannot always be the one to pick up the kiddo when you dropped them off...life happens and even though they are expensive, it's worth every penny for good protection and I honestly feel this car seat delivers my child safely to and from home.
Cons
  • Cup holder does not fit anything we have at all...should have been adjustable

January 28, 2015
I bought this on preorder when it first came out 2 years ago for my then 1 yr old daughter and still love it. When choosing a child restraint for my daughter, I literally went to a local baby department store to test them all out. I had a lot of requirements on my wish list for a child restraint to tell you that I am very picky. This seat met all of my requirements with extra padded comfort, no rethread harness, multiple recline & relatively compact for small spaces. After using it a few months and taking it on a vacation trip, I found that the only things I complained about were the shoulder pads & the length of the crotch strap. Chicco customer service was excellent in replacing them for me with the new Oct 2013 updated set and at no cost to me. I also found it very easy to take the cover off for washing when so many have complained about it. Also about the straps not being long enough to hang on the sides, I found it to be untrue. I am able to place the buckle tongs into the sides of the car seat when not in use to prevent having to dig them up from under my daughter's bum. I place the buckle tongs in between the cover and the plastic siding. Anyways, we loved it so much that we've had 3 of them (mystique, gemini & zip palisade). I'm proud to say that thanks to the Chicco NextFit, my now almost 3 yrs old daughter at ~35.5" and 30.2 lbs is still rear-facing!
Pros
  • *8 yrs lifespan
  • *no rethread harness
  • *supercinch LATCH
  • *extra padded for comfort
  • *multi-reclines
  • *sleek
  • *rounded edges to prevent vehicle seat damage
Best Uses
  • For all ages from 5 lbs premie to 40 lbs preschooler rear-facing. Then to 50" height and 65 lbs forward-facing.
Cons
  • *heavy

We had a Chicco infant seat 7 years ago with my son. Loved it, but unfortunately Chicco didn't make convertible seats at the time. Now we have another child, and I was thrilled to see they came out with convertible seats! We bought one for my husband's car once our 3 month old started going to daycare. I love this seat. It's is so incredibly padded/protected. Easy to install, easy to get her in and out. We definitely plan on buying another one for my car once she outgrows her infant seat.

This is the best car seat out there! I like it better then britax! I bought one of these two years ago for my two-year-old and he loves this car seat! He fits very comfortable in it. The fabric is very soft and easy to take off and clean. I just bought another car seat for my one-year-old and he loves it as well! It comes with a nice Cupholder that can attach on either side. I feel very safe with both of my kids in these car seats. I love how the shoulder pads are removable now. The installation can't be any easier. It's got a nine position recline which I love! If you're having any doubts about this car seat don't because it is a amazing car seat!!!

So far so good! We just received the car seat and we are happy with the size and fit. Our son is a very large 11 months old and he seems much more comfortable in it than his previous seat, which he has obviously outgrown. We had the Chicco Keyfit 30 and LOVED it, so this was the obvious next step.

Not completely satisified
January 18, 2015
I bought the nextfit for my granddaughter a year ago, it was super east to install and seems very comfortable, but what I'm extremely upset about is that you can't take the cover off for washing. This seat is designed to be used for many years and you are unable to machine wash it? Other than that I have no complaints about this car seat. Sorry Chicco, but for the price, I will be selling this and purchasing something different.

The best convertible car seat on the market
January 16, 2015
So easy to install, I did it while 7 months pregnant. We bought the Chicco Keyfit 30 infant car seat for one car and this one for the second. Now that my little man is 7 months old, I'm so glad we bought both. Seeing that he's now 20 lbs, It's been difficult carrying him in the infant car seat by myself. My husband still uses it, but I prefer to carry him and buckle him into the Nextfit. It's perfect for him and he seems to love being in it. I love the Mystique color.

We purchased this seat when my son was about 20 months old. It replaced another convertible that was very difficult to install, I needed something that my husband could install easily in multiple vehicles without becoming frustrated. I was also very impressed by the high height/weight maximums for rear facing. The install is so easy, by far the easiest convertible install I've come across. It is a little heavy to move between vehicles, but even at 7 mos pregnant I have no problems moving it. The wide range of inclines makes this seat work well in any vehicle. The straps were difficult to adjust in the beginning but after a while they became easier and we have no problem now. My son is now almost 3 and still comfortably rear facing, he has plenty of legroom and more room to grow.
Pros
  • Easy Install
  • Spacious
  • Long lasting in RF mode
Cons
  • Weight

Protected our baby in rollover crash!
December 8, 2014
We bought this car seat several months ago after much research. It seemed like it was one of the safest car seats out there, and after testing this one and a few others in a store, I decided this one was my favorite (one reason being that I could not get the Britax seats to recline, a problem I had with my son 7 years ago).Well, this Friday this seat was put to the test. Our truck went off the road at 75mph and rolled several times, totaling the truck. My baby's door was ripped away and the roof was crushed. All she had was a cut on her head! This car seat (and God) protected her so well! Somehow all of us walked away with only minor injuries, but she had fewer than any of us! We will be ordering another one of these for sure!

I bought a chicco infant carrier for my first son after much research on the safety and ease of use of infant seats. I ended up loving it. I was devastated that they did not have a convertible car seat when he outgrew his infant seat. With my second son, this stay was available so I ordered it right away. Once again I am very pleased with the solidity and ear of use. This seat looks fantastic and is super soft. It's also heavy which I like because it seems like it would hold up in an accident. I have always felt car seats are not something to skimp on. That is why I bought this seat. You will not be disappointed!

Graduated from Chicco KeyFit
October 30, 2014
We ordered this based on the performance of the KeyFit, and also based on the longevity of rear facing. We are not in a hurry to front face, and our son has a long way to go, as the Nextfit can rear face through 40 pounds. Compared to other convertible carseats we've had experience with (Diono Radian), this is very simple to take out of one car and to put into another. It's very soft and seems comfortable for our son. He doesn't fuss, and he falls asleep easily in it. I would buy it again, and hope to for my husband's car once our son grows out of the KeyFit.

Nice easy to use seat.

Nice easy to use seat. Very compact, so it will fit even in small cars. Fits newborns well and is very long lasting rear facing.
Pros
  • Fits even tiny cars
  • Fits newborns
Cons
  • Cover seems to show some stains easier then other seats.
  • Higher sides may make it harder to load and unload small kids in 2 door cars.
