My son seems to really like his new seat! I got this to replace his infant seat and he has plenty of room . It’s a big seat compared to our graco 4evr but we still have plenty of room in our f150

Super plush. Love the neutral color for the car.
Cons
  • The only con is the neck straps are really cozy.. almost limiting babies head movement

Comfy seat, poor shoulder harness
December 3, 2020
My daughter seems very comfortable in the seat. The materials are very soft and premium, and the cushioning is quite generous. One big negative is consistent with other reviews that the shoulder harness doesn't tighten to the extent where you can no longer pinch the straps at the shoulder. Perhaps it's partly due to the fact that my daughter is dainty in size, but she is easily within the height and weight limits of the seat. The other negative is with regards to the installation. The level line and limit of 2 rear-facing recline positions makes for a slightly imperfect installation.
Pros
  • Premium quality materials. Thick and plush cushioning. Easy on and off magnetic harness clip.
Cons
  • Shoulder harness doesn't tighten completely.
  • Only 2 recline positions for rear-facing.
  • Rear level line is not the handiest for installation.

We liked it so much we bought a 2nd seat
December 2, 2020
We just used this on a long distance trip and my 9 month old was very happy. We upsized from the Maxi Cosi Adorra infant car seat and found this was a lot easier to get her in and out of. The magnetic clip makes it fast to undo the harness. There's a lot of padding so she was for sure the most comfortable one on the car long 8 hour ride. We were so happy with the seat and the prices at AlbeeBaby.com I just bought a second seat in another color for my Husband's truck. The color options were another reason I liked the seat. I didn't want a boring black car seat.
Pros
  • Easier to get baby in and out of the seat. Magnetic clip works great.
Best Uses
  • Long or short car rides
Cons
  • It's big, I drive a full sized the Land Rover Discovery and I still had to put the front seat up a bit to accommodate the seat in rear facing mode.

I bought this for our "Florida" car seat at Grandma/Grandpa's house. My father is pretty impatient but he installed it easily and without complaint. I used it for 2 weeks straight with my 3 month old and she was quite comfy in it! Would definitely buy again.

Perfect Car Seat
November 28, 2020
We needed a new car seat as my son outgrew the UppaBaby Mesa. This color is beautiful and the magnet close/open chest clip is super easy. The install was easy as our car had the two clips that the seat can easily insert into.

Great price for this car seat. I bought it for my grand daughter who was growing out of her Maxi Cosi infant seat. She is loving the extra room. Also, she stays cool in our hot humid weather, do not know if it’s do to the design or color that helps so much. The seat is heavy and stays in place. It is also large/bulky when rear facing.

Maxi Cosi Car Seat

My daughter loves this car seat. We had a Graco seat for a while but she wasn’t comfortable. This car seat has plenty of room for her to grow and nice padding. Our car rides are pleasant now! Also, the car seat arrived so quickly and was easy to assemble.

Decent budget car seat, certainly not a britax.
October 30, 2020
Purchased this maxi cosi when our second child outgrew his infant seat (Britax B-Safe). Oldest child has a Britax One-4-Life that we have loved, but they are definitely pricey. Picked this one because it had many of the same features, and looked well made. Overall it’s been a decent seat, but I really miss the click tight system that tightens the chair into the latch or seatbelt. However.... my biggest complaint is the buckles. The slots are too wide, and the belt repeatedly (every other day or so?) twists in both the harness clip and buckle. This is a major pain, and I would not buy another Maxi because of this.
Pros
  • Great quality finish
  • Great door option
Cons
  • Buckle path width
  • Buckle path width
  • Buckle path width

Superior quality on a budget

Like the title says, it's a very well made product. It does offer the best value for money in this class. The other comparable products like from nuna are twice as expensive. The best part is my child loves it. Intel very happy with the product.
Pros
  • Safer
  • Budget friendly
  • Comfortable
  • Medium size

This car seat is exactly what we were hoping it would be. Our 5 month old baby HATES His infant car seat, and is always so sweaty. But in this he is much happier, and wayyyy less hot. Yes it is a large/heavy car seat, but so is our other convertible car seat (not maxi Cosi), most are! Overall awesome seat, would recommend!
Pros
  • Plush fabric
  • Keeps baby cool
Cons
  • Can be difficult to tighten sometimes

Crash tested A+
September 25, 2020
Unfortunately, we crash tested this seat. The good thing was my 2 year old was rear facing in a properly installed carseat. We totaled our SUV and he came out of it totally unscathed! Replaced with the same car and the same car seat after they both kept my precious lil human safe! My kiddo still rides comfortably in it now at age 4. We also kept the cover from the old seat had to replace after accident as a backup for messes! I'd recommend this seat to anyone looking for a safe, quality and long lasting seat!

I love this seat. I'm going to be replacing my Britax clicktight eventually in my car, as I purchased this for my husband's car. It is doing and comfy. Baby is 3 months old, and as seat can go up to 85 lbs this is going to be his seat for a long while. Colour is a nice, sea foam green. Really loved the ease of installation too.

Cushions split in less than 2 months!
September 21, 2020
I chose this car seat after much research. I am extremely disappointed as the straps constantly get jammed/will not tighten or loosen and, the seat cushions have come apart after just 2 months of very light use (we are in COVID and barely leave the house). Maxi Cosi offered me replacement pads but will not accept a return. I have zero confidence this seat will last us years, as intended.

Awesome Carseat
September 17, 2020
I love this car seat. It is an excellent combination of luxury and affordable. The cover is extremely easy to clean. My only complaints are that the straps were really hard to tighten at first and my daughter does not like the padding for them. They might be too thick, so she pulls them off. All in all, you definitely recommend if your child spends more time than just quick trips around town in the car seat.

Cons outway the Pros
September 10, 2020
I LOVE the look and comfort of this seat however, I do not feel it is safe rear facing. I have a Toyota 4 Runner and when it is "secured" it can still easily move side to side. We've followed the directions to the "T" but can not get it stabilized. We had the Uppa Baby Mesa previously and that thing was SECURE. It would not wiggle at all. The magnetic chest clip is great, but the buckle can be hard to maneuver sometimes.

Perfect Comfort for my little one
September 3, 2020
So many car seats are uncomfortable and kids fall asleep with the necks in strange positions or cant fall asleep at all. This carseat is super easy to install and use. The harness is expecially easy compared to so many others. My most favorite feature besides the recline and comfort for my little one. It is also so much more comfortable than any carseat my 3 kids have used and I always do research before making a purchase. I highly recommend choosing this one over the more popular graco or safety first seats.
Pros
  • Comfort
  • Ease of Use
  • Easy to Install
Best Uses
  • Long trips
  • Every day use
  • Warm weather
Cons
  • Heavy but if you don't need to take it in and out of the vehicle this isn't concerning

This our second Pria 85 Max, one for each kid. We love it! So comfortable for the kids and super easy to wash. If you are new to this seat, I will warn that the straps seem difficult to tighten at first, it takes some practice but stick with it and it’ll get easier. Also check out the Car seat Lady for a great video on install! Albee had an amazing price on this seat, and it arrived so quickly. This was my first purchase through AlbeeBaby but I will definitely shop here again.

I struggled for months to find a supportive carseat for my low tone one year old before we found the Pria 85 Max. We are thrilled with the support the body pillow gives him. The seat is very comfortable. The magnetic chest clip is nice and easy to adjust to using. Great carseat!

Not for us
August 19, 2020
The car seat is absolutely beautiful and we wanted to love it, but we did not like the magnetic chest clip. I had to read the instructions in order to figure out how to open it. After reading the instructions, it is very simple and convenient. What turned us away, is that in case of an accident, if someone else needed to remove our son from his carseat without our help, we are worried they would not be able to figure it out on their own in a hurry. Although it is just a “what if” scenario, we returned it and are on the market for a different convertible car seat.
Pros
  • Beautiful
  • Great safety features
Cons
  • Magnetic chest buckle

We have a Britax marathon, an Evenflo Symphony and two of these Maxi Cosi Pria! My kids love it, it is stylish and comfy and so easy to use. Also very easy to clean which is a huge plus!!! Occasionally people helping us are confused with the magnetic clips, but my toddler can generally help them out. I will purchase more if I have more children.

The straps get tangled so easily and i feel like I can't get the straps snug enough around my baby if the shoulder pads are on. The body pillow is awkward and his arms rest on top of it and he looks uncomfortable. I wouldn't buy again and I wish I would have gone with something else.

I love this car seat and so does my baby! It's so soft and the quality is amazing. The safety ratings are great and I'm proud to say that this is my second maxi (my oldest has the same seat in black.)

Magnetic buckle is not safe
July 4, 2020
I bought my first maxi cosi pria car seat for my daughter and I loved it. Hence, it is not a magnetic buckle. We had our second baby and decided to purchase another one for him since we loved that it grows with our baby. We decided to give the magnetic buckle a try. By baby is now one and he is able to unbuckle himself by simply "breaking" the buckle apart ..

Great car seat
June 24, 2020
Car seat seems great, although I’ve never had another car seat to compare. The magnetic harness connection is great. My only complaint it the side holders to keep the harness out of the way are really high up. I have a 1 year old and I’d have to let the straps out quite a bit to use the holders.

Love it as a front facing seat
June 17, 2020
Over all the seat is nice quality and easily installed. Love the material and the softness. My son is 23lb and 16months, I was hoping to use it as a rear facing seat, but was unable to make it secure and tight in both of our vehicles. Front facing is very secure.
Customer Images
Pros
  • Easily installed, the softest material and cushion I have tried yet. Love the magnetic clip, easy to use.
Cons
  • Very large, high and bulky, tried to install rear facing in both of our vehicles and unable to get it to not fling forward; I tried both my car seat belt and the belt that came with the seat, and it still moves too much. I will just use it as a front facing seat. Also the seatbelt holder clips on side are too far his belt to reach, would have to loosen it up each time to use them.

Love this carseat!
June 14, 2020
This seat is the perfect balance of value and functionality. It feels high end and baby is comfortable riding in it. I recently got a cheaper graco for grandma's car and couldn't believe the difference in quality and ease of use. As a side note, I noticed that the plastic under the cover at the top was cracked after about a month of occasional use--I don't think it impacted the safety, but was still bummed to find this. I called the manufacturer and had a brand new seat at my door with in a week. Awesome brand to work with if you need to make a warranty claim. I can't recommend this seat enough!
