This car seat puts our old Graco one to shame. It is just better quality overall. The fabric is beautiful. It looks expensive. The padding makes me jealous that I can't sit in this car seat lol. We also bought the sun shade for it.
Pros
  • -Beautiful fabric
  • -Very cushiony
  • -Easy to install
  • -Easy to take fabric off if baby has a blowout
Cons
  • -Have to rethread harness to adjust; can't just press the button and lift the straps

Great car seat
July 18, 2018
Love this car seat. Very soft and lots of cushion. Fabric Is extremely good quality and looks like it will be easy to take care of (wipe clean/machine washable). My one year old is is on the 90+ percentile for size and he fits perfectly in the car seat even with the body pillow. He hated his previous car seat but so far I think he loves this one. No more fighting back whenever I put him in his car seat. The Clip Quick buckle is also great and makes things a lot easier for me when it comes to taking him in and out. I also love the fact that the crotch buckle is on the smaller side and has a cover on it to prevent any accidental pinching to his chubby thighs when buckling him in. Definitely worth the higher price tag.

We love the maxi cosi 85 max. It's so comfortable for babe. Straps hard to tighten on install but once you get them tight, it's very secure.

Great Seat
July 1, 2018
Baby loves her new seat. It's plush and comfy, and she especially likes the deep cup holder. It is pretty bulky, so be aware if you have a smaller car with a taller driver, you might have some space issues. Also, I found it a bit difficult to get the pathing correct for Latch installation, but overall, it was pretty easy to install. Also, when it comes to getting her strapped in, taken out, or tightening the straps, it's the easiest seat I've ever owned. The fabric could be a bit softer, but it's easy to spot clean. Also, this pattern is a lot more attractive in person than in pictures. I'd absolutely buy this seat again.
Pros
  • Easy Usage
  • Deep Cup Holder
  • Plush
Best Uses
  • Long rode trips
Cons
  • Tricky Installation
  • Bulky

Good choice
June 28, 2018
We are happy with our choice to purchase this car seat. It's our 3rd maxi Cosi is 10 years and the quality is great. My on ly complaint is the 3 position recline. It's very hard to adjust. Our other one 9 years ago was much easier. I can't tell if its moving when I'm adjusting it, or the whole seat is moving.
Pros
  • Comfort
  • Safety
Cons
  • Installing
  • 3 position recline

Really Good car seat
June 27, 2018
This is a really good car seat. Material is soft, color is beautiful and does not have chemical smell. The magnetic clip is an amazing feature.
Cons
  • The only issue we had so far was when we took the cover to wash since was not as easy to place back on

June 24, 2018
I have nothing good to say about the installation - the amount of strength and dexterity required seem preposterous. And we definitely won't be moving this between vehicles! But now that the seat is in, it's super comfy for our son, and a huge upgrade from the Graco we previously had, even though that was a top of the line model. Mostly, I'm really glad to finally switch to a seat not loaded with flame retardants and other toxic chemicals.
Pros
  • soft, comfy and non-toxic.
Best Uses
  • Carrying small humans
Cons
  • Installation!!!

Great car seat

We really like this car seat! Magnetic buckle is the bomb!!! So easy to buckle her in and take her out. It has three recline positions for the backward facing- she is now one year and we will try to seat her this way for as long as possible and this car seat is big And comfortable for that!We got the red orchid color- love it! So bright and colorful! I was scared about the stains, but we have been using it for three weeks now and no stains yet! Plus- it is good for laundry machine and dryer!

The color is beautiful, and it lives up to its name of being "Maxi Cosi." Our baby hated her old car seat and while she's not in love with this new one, it's made car rides muuuuuch more bearable for EVERYONE.

Love this car seat! Not only does it scream classy, it is super comfortable! It was easy to install and I love how the straps tuck in on the sides for easy ins and outs. I'm also in love with the magnetic chest strap. I haven't had to wash it yet, but I'm excited about how easily the cover snaps on/off. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

We recently upgraded our son's car seat from infant to this convertible. The look of the this one is really beautiful. It is easy to install and adjust. When baby sits in, he feels really comfortable and safe. The safety belts are easy to be tighten. Even though I saw some comments about this issue, we never meet this problem. The best part of Albee Baby is good price and super fast shipping!

June 4, 2018
My son loves this car seat. It is wide, comfy, and he gets a great view! It took a little bit of time to adjust to the chest clip, but now I can undo it with one hand and don't think my son could manage to undo it even with lots of fiddling (he unbuckled the chest clip on his previous car seat multiple times). My only complaints are that once the straps twist they are really hard to untwist and that the seat tends to be a bit warm for summer days.

Easy to use
May 10, 2018
We ordered this car seat after our daughter outgrew her infant seat. Installation is pretty easy, but it did take some wrangling to get the LATCH straps tight enough. The clips on the side to hold the arms straps are a great feature because our daughter hates sitting on the hard plastic pieces. We haven't had to wash the seat cover yet, but we've removed it and it comes off and on easily.

Comfortable Car Seat

We have a Britax Boulevard and found it a little small for a two-year old. I have heard so many good things about Maxi-cosi that we decided to buy a 85 max so that the two-year old can move to this car seat and the one year old can use the Boulevard. It turns out that our daughter loves it. It provides much more space than the Boulevard and has a cup holder. It's perfect!

After weeks of researching all of the best car seats on the market, I settled on the Pria 85. While it is pricer than many models on the market, it will be the only car seat we ever need! The cushions are thick and responsive, and I feel confident that our little one will be very safe in this seat. Beyond the functionality and safety of this seat, the Nomad Green color is beautiful and looks great with our cream leather interior!

April 4, 2018
We already own this seat and needed a second. We love it!! The seat is narrow enough so there is room for 3 car seat across the back seat. The only issue we have is tightening the strap. Sometimes it seems to stick so we really have to give a good tug.
Pros
  • Pretty narrow
  • Easy to clean
Best Uses
  • Rear facing toddler
Cons
  • Tightening the strap is hard sometimes

I purchase this seat to replace my daughters infant car seat. It was incredibly easy to install. I was worried it wouldn't fit well in my car, but it fits wonderfully. I have a Subaru I'mpreza sedan. It sits up higher than her previous seat, and she loves being able to see out the windows. Seat is really cushy and comfy. She looks extremely content sitting in it. Very easy to get her in and out of as well. Very pleased with my purchase!

Great carseat for the money
March 26, 2018
I am really liking this carseat. It is very roomy and my little boy seems very comfortable while in it. I do have to say installing is no where as easy as other I have owned. But once I finally got it tightened up it seems secure. Also the straps are a bit difficult to snug up but hoping over time it will get easier with additional use.
Pros
  • Comfy, love the removable cover.
Cons
  • Getting the straps to snug up takes some muscle.

March 23, 2018
The car seat appears really well made and comfortable. The magnetic clip is a nice touch but nothing earth shattering considering you still clip in near the legs. It is a little bulkier than some others so if you don't have a lot of room you may want to look elsewhere but this is a really nice car seat and would recommend it.

Recently upgraded from the Maxi Cosi Pria 70. This has more room for my three year old, easy to install, and the magnetic buckle is great. Fabric feels somewhat rougher than the Pria 70, but it also feels less absorbent which is good.

STUNNING Car Seat!!
March 1, 2018
The Red Orchid is the most beautiful color combo that Maxi Cosi has come up with!! Just stunning!!My husband can't get enough of the magnetic chest clip--it really is amazing!! I wish they had that clip on the Pria 70 that we have for our other 2 children!The seat pad--it comes in 2 pieces: 1 piece is the bottom pad for raising the kiddo(baby) up. It's very thick and supportive! And 1 piece is the Side Bumper piece(in purple). This was not very clear in the photos that the 2 pieces were able to be separated and I almost didn't buy this seat because I wasn't sure!The chest clip pad is a lot bigger than on the Pria 70! It extends far enough to go under the chest clip(if the chest clip is put in the proper position)! We love this feature!All in all, this seat is amazing and has a lot of upgrades that the Pria 70 doesn't have! I do wish that this seat had the full extra seat pad for comfort like the Pria 70 does. But other than, this seat is perfect!! And the color is just amazing!!!

Car seat I wanted at a great price
February 28, 2018
I did a lot of research and decided on the Pria 85 Max. Albee Baby had a great selection at $50 under other sites, and with the Presidents Day sale and an additional $50 off I couldn't pass it up. I decided on the triangle black as I liked the color a lot and I got it for $199!
Pros
  • Safety, comfort, rear and forward facing, can use up to 85 lbs, and design.

My kid seems to love it
January 28, 2018
It's quite a tall seat and fairly wide but the base is narrow to help it fit well in more spaces. The fabric is very nice much nicer than in our other seat. You can definitely see what you are paying more for in the quality of the buckles and fabrics. My only gripe with this seat is there is a mandatory recline but no built it level indicator so you have to do all sort of squinting and other things to get the line level I also think for the price there should be more recline Levels. I had to use a rolled up towel to achieve the correct angle. The seat should have at least 3 or 4 rear facing recline options not two. Other than that I'm happy with the seat.

Most comfortable car seat we could find
October 31, 2017
We have twin boys and at 6 months old they were no longer comfortable in their Graco infant car seats. We started looking around for convertible seats and were comparing Graco, Chicco, Evenflo, and Maxi Cosi. The seats we were comparing all ranged from $280 to $350 for each seat with Maxi Cosi being the most expensive. We chose to go with the Pria 85 Max because it was by far the softest seat we could find. On top of that, the Pria 85 Max has a few extra features that we LOVE, like the side hooks to hold the straps out of the way and the magnetic chest closure that helps us get them buckled in faster. With two babies anything that makes our lives faster and easier is important! Our boys are now 10 months old and I'm still so happy we bought these.
