Great carseat
September 21, 2017
I researched a lot of convertible car seats since we needed a second and she'll grow out of her keyfit and this one seemed to be the best. My little one seems to like it and enjoys being able to sit up more. Overall it's a great seat.

We love this car seat. It was easy to install and adjust. The straps are just right versus the Graco that is too short in the crotch area. I have not used the zip feature but when it comes time to clean will appreciate that. My daughter seems to be very comfortable, but occasionally gets a little sweaty so I'm cognizant of what she's wearing and the temperature in the car.

Decent seat but not the best.
August 25, 2017
Already own a Clek Fllo. We needed another seat and my wife decided to buy the Nextfit Zip as it was $70 cheaper than another Fllo. The Nextfit is decent but not anywhere near the Fllo; quality of materials is cheaper and not as good stability and security when using seatbelts. It is also made in China, whereas Cleks are made in Canada and Britax is USA made. 2 days after buying and we regret purchasing. The Fllo is that much better, not to mention the anti roll back bar. Simply put, this seat is a compromise. When locked in the Fllo doesn't budge any direction, while the Nextfit is not as stable. A step up from a Graco, a few steps down from Clek.
Pros
  • Easy to adjust for childs size. Easy to adjust seat angle. Seems to be comfortable.
Cons
  • While installing with Latch is solid, when installed with seatbelts the seat is not as stable and secure. You fish the seatbelt through the seat, latch it and there is one clip on the opposite side to clasp the shoulder belt. The Clek Fllo has a much better and secure system. The materials are cheaper than similarly priced seats (Clek Fllo).

We have the Chicco Next Fit and decided to get the zip since we're expecting our second. Love how we can take apart the seat and wash it! Love that it has different reclining levels that grow with your child. Very easy to use and attach to the car which is a plus as well.

I am using rear facing so far and it is easy to install in the car. I also like that I can remove all the cover and throw them to wash machine. It's heavy but feel strong and safe for my baby.

Best and safest car seat out there. Easy to install, clean and adjust to your growing baby. The officer who installed it said it was the nicest he had seen

Comfortable and easy to install and clean!
August 2, 2017
We have two of these for my older son and just purchased two more for my daughter. Super easy to install wth the latch system, "cushy" to keep the kids comfortable, and the zip feature is a great bonus - easy to clean because you can quickly unzip the liner to remove and/or clean underneath.
Cons
  • The only negative is that it takes up a good amount of room rear facing. My husband can't position his seat back far enough to drive in our 2015 Durango (he's 6'2").

Great Car Seat!
August 1, 2017
I absolutely LOVE this car seat. It was super easy to install, it seems so cozy for my toddler, the cover zips off, it looks good, and it has variable recline and an easy to read level guide that not only improves toddler's comfort but reassures me it's in correctly. Now that it's on sale, well dang! I am tempted to buy another (but I don't need it yet!) I purchased a less expensive Britax as a second car seat option but this one is superior in the rear-facing recline option and overall ease of install. The Britax is less expensive but has a better chemical rating that this Chicco. It's a bit bulky
Pros
  • -Comfort - cushy and has variable recline so in rear-facing, toddler appears to be comfortable and not too upright
  • -Ease of cleaning - cover completely zips off and is machine washable
  • -Install - easy to install
Cons
  • -Size - seems bulkier than other car seats
  • -Chemical rating was mid-level, poorer than other car seat options
  • -Price - on the pricier side but on sale it's quite a steal!

We just started using the Chicco NextFit and so far we love it. My one year is very comfortable and I feel that he is safe and secure in this car seat. The installation was super easy and the adjustments for reclining, head extender, etc are all very easy to use.
Pros
  • Removable cover and easily adjustable straps/head support.
Cons
  • Once it is installed (rear facing) it is hard to adjust the recline position as it is against the seat.

Great car seat!
July 23, 2017
This is the 2nd Chicco NextFit I purchase from Albee Baby, in this case for my younger daughter (my older son still uses the other one). Great quality car seat! My kids love it for being very comfortable and I love it for being very safe (it ranks among te best in all consumer reviews/rankings). Also, Albee Baby has great prices and promo codes, and their service is really good. It's worth buying it here!
Pros
  • Comfortable
  • Safe
  • Good quality
Cons
  • A bit heavy (but around the same weight of its competitors).

Chicco NextFit Zip
July 23, 2017
I do like like the back is lower so I can see out of my car. The extra pading in the seat at the shoulder level makes it harder to place him in the seat because he is taller and heavier. He does like the seat. I like the level on tne outside plus the crotch strap cover.

I am in love with this seat--worth every penny!
July 3, 2017
My favorite part is how easy it is to install and get a TIGHT fit. I have never found it so easy with previous seats. Then the seat won't move AT ALL once I have tightened the LATCH straps. Then there are the multiple reclines, and relatively slim profile. It is wonderful for extended rear facing. My daughter is also extremely comfortable in it. She sleeps comfortably and always seems supported and sleeps wonderfully thanks to the cushions around the face. We have had to take off the cover once to wash it and it was so easy. I am glad we spent the few extra bucks for the easily removable cover.
Pros
  • Easy to install
  • Comfortable
  • Attractive
Cons
  • Heavy, not ideal for air travel
  • Not the cheapest seat on the market

Installation is a BREEZE, it can be adjusted to fit in my Prius, adjusting the incline isn't crazy difficult, the colors are fantastic, the zip off seat padding is terrific because it is so much easier to manipulate when needing to be washed, and the matching insulated optional cup holder is GENIUS! *sigh* Can a person have a crush on a car seat??

I looked at so many different convertible car seats and I am so beyond happy with my choice of chicco. The car seat has so many reclining options depending on the age of your child which is so nice. Also the that the cover zips off for easy washing is amazing!! Kids get messy and this makes it so much easier to wash!
Pros
  • Many reclining options and zip off cover for washing
Cons
  • A little heavy

Love this carseat, my 2 and a half year old is still rear facing. He is comfortable and it's easy to change cars. This was our second purchase, we now have one for each car only for convenience. I would buy again in a heart beat.
Cons
  • In rear facing it may not be suitable for all car models. This fits best in our truck(4 door f150), but snug in the envoy(midsize SUV)

A little difficult
June 10, 2017
Getting my one year old in, and out is a little difficult. He's still riding rear facing as the law states. I'm not sure if I like the car seat. I've had it a week. I choose this seat because of the safety rating. Hopefully, its easier when he faces forward.
Pros
  • Safety rating
  • Comfortable for my son
Cons
  • Seems more difficult to get him in
  • I always have to fight to get the straps from under him

Comfy and easy to install
June 1, 2017
My daughter seems to really enjoy this seat. When she falls asleep she has the proper head support so she stays in the correct position, comfortably. Great seat, I'd order it again.
Pros
  • I like the bubble markers that show you that it's in the correct position. I installed it the first time thinking it was right but then checked the bubble and it was totally off, without that I could have had her in the wrong position without knowing.
Cons
  • It is a pretty bulky seat so make sure the measurements work for your car, I have a VW Passat and it is a little big to squeeze her in the doorframe and into the seat. It works but it takes a little maneuvering.

Amazing car seat- bigger than expected- Chicco is the one to pick
March 23, 2017
I have a lot of Chicco products and this one definitely doesn't disappoint. High quality and SAFE. The only negative is that it is SO big. Which is good and bad. My child is much more comfortable which is a huge bonus, but the drawback is having it behind the driver seat means the driver can't lean their seat back very far with it set on the highest (level) setting. Luckily we have a large vehicle, with a spacious backseat, so it's only a minor inconvenience. I don't know how well it would fit (rear facing) in a smaller sedan, however. Though I imagine this type of seat has that problem across the product lines.
Pros
  • Soft material
  • Zip off feature for washing
  • Flex fit restraint
Best Uses
  • SUV, truck, minivan
Cons
  • Takes up a ton of space
  • Not good for small sedans
  • Hard to reach the tightening/loosening button when raised to the highest rear facing setting
