LOVE how comfortable this seat looks.Great color.
August 13, 2017
I will be using this seat shortly for my niece, whom I babysit. She is not even 6 months old but is just about outgrown the infant seat. Love that she will be able to continue facing backwards for a while. This seat will take her all through her "car-seat" days.
Pros
  • great for larger infants who need the be seated backwards but still need head and body support.

The Cadillac of car seats
August 8, 2017
I have 6 children and have been through a lot of car seats! The Maxi Cosi Pria 85 does not disappoint. The rear facing installation was quick and simple, both my teen and my husband have easily moved if from one vehicle to another and safely installed it. My toddler is very comfy and the belt holders are handy when she's sleeping. The built in cup holder is nice but not easily accessed for the smaller people. The biggest selling point for us is the easily removable cover. You don't have to completely disassemble or even uninstall the car seat to wash the cover!! It comes off easily, can be washed in the washing machine and dried in the dryer, then pops right back on. The only draw back we had is the size. This is a pretty bulky car seat I almost didn't even try to install it in the van because I didn't believe it would fit. Much to my surprise it did and looks were most definitely deceiving. All in all a great purchase for extended rear facing for a safe and cozy ride.
Best Uses
  • Extended rear facing

Every time I take it out I get asked about it, people constantly telling me how sleek it looks. It's also extremely easy to maneuver and transfer the car seat.

Love the Pria 85!
August 6, 2017
We live in a hot climate, and many of the carseats we looked at just didn't use materials which would breathe and help keep baby comfortable. Worse, they felt rough or plastic-like. The Pria 85, on the other hand, uses a wonderful material that is soft to the touch. In addition, getting baby in and out of the seat is easy too, using the handy harness clips. We have just switched over to this seat from our infant bucket seat, but so far we are very happy with our purchase!
Pros
  • Harness clips
  • LATCH installation
  • Soft, machine washable (and dryable!) cover
  • 2 recline options for rear -facing
Cons
  • None so far!

my baby toddler fits well and its comfortable
Cons
  • the material could be softer. The clips is a little hard to get undone for me, but that maybe because the way its positioned in my car and Im left handed.

Bad experience!
August 3, 2017
Very disappointed with this product. My son vomited all over the car seat and the harness was very disficult to clean. Mold began to build on the harness. I called the company to order a replacement harness as I saw this as a safety issue and they mentioned that the harness could not be washed or replace and only option is to purchase a new car seat.

Great Carseat
July 29, 2017
I bought 2 of these a few weeks ago, and so far I'm very happy. The cover is plush and my baby is very comfy. It's a large seat, but fits great in my suburban. I have it reclining because my baby often has one or even both naps on the go, but there's the option to be more upright in the rear facing position too. Her head is well supported when asleep which is so often an issue! Great price!
Pros
  • very comfortable
  • Nice fabric, easy snap removability and can go in washer AND dryer
  • Good head support without feeling tight
Best Uses
  • Babies over one year.
Cons
  • Large

Bought this carseat for my 7 months old to be more comfortable on the road trip across country. So far ge really likes it. No complaining like in the bucket seat. I like that it has a cup holder. Easy installing even with switching belt to rear facing.

Bought this car seat because my son was getting too big for his carrier seat. This seat is much roomier. He loves it! It was pretty easy to install in my car. The fabric is great and the seat sits high so he can see out the window. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a long term car seat that grows with your child.

July 16, 2017
I love this seat! My baby seems to love it and looks so cozy and comfy in it. The harness straps and tether strap is harder to tighten than any other convertible seat I've had or used, but I'm hoping they'll get easier and it's just cause the seat is brand new. I love that I can remove and replace the cover to wash without uninstalling the entire seat. It's super easy to get my baby in and out and I love the strap holders that keep the straps out of the way when putting him in it. I also love the cushions around the buckles so it's comfy for my little guy. I am so happy with my purchase and would recommend to anyone!

I absolutely love this car seat, My toddler as outgrown her Maxi Cosi Mico 30 Infant Car Seat in Bright Rose, so i decided to upgrade to the Maxi Cosi Pria 85 Ribble Convertible Car Seat in Havana Pink, when it comes to car seat i only buy Maxi cosi, Apart from the fact that they have very beautiful design and its very safe it is also removable therefore i can take it off and wash it when dirty, as for delivery it came in about one week, well package and easy to install, I highly recommend .I buy anything from stroller to car seat from Albee baby, they have the best price you can ever find, and also give you reward every time you order.

I was very sad to pull this out of the box and find it to be a shade of purple. We were taking a long trip so there was so time for returns. Over all great car seat and my little GUY slept in the car so that was amazing (that's our struggle on long trips). Wanted to save someone else the headache!

We already had the maxi cosi pria 85 in the black softer material in our other car. This was purchased for a second car and the only negative is the fabric is a different texture than the original one and it's a bit rougher to the touch. But other than that it's perfect. Easy to install by far my fav seat.

This was not a good choice for a compact four-door hatchback
June 15, 2017
I found this seat's side impact protectors too high to easily put my squirmy 10 month old in. The space I had between the car door frame and the seat was limited and made installing the baby awkward. It was easier to put him back in his nuna carrier. He is back in his nuna carrier while I wait to order him the nuna convertible car seat.
Pros
  • Very cushy comfy.
Best Uses
  • good for midsize sedan to larger automobile.
Cons
  • Too awkwardly big on the sides and the material on the seat cover is not the best.

Great seat
June 9, 2017
My daughter enjoys the seat, it's material is comfortable and breathable, so not too hot in the Vegas heat. My only "issue" (if you can even call it that) with the seat is that my daughter is fairly small (19lbs @ 15mos) and tightening the straps to be where they should be can be mildly difficult. Not a really big deal, just annoying more than anything.

Roomie and comfy

My little one love this car seat like no other brand with its price point holds up to 85lbs plus is reclinable. Love the softened of the fabric, and the head support. Also this car seat grows with your little one also everything is adjustable.
Pros
  • Soft fabric
  • Roomie
  • Reclinable
  • Seat up to 85lbs
  • Head support
Cons
  • Due to its roomie the car seat itself is a bite bulky. If your car is not the roomie type, after you install the seat you might be only able to fit one passenger in the back.

I bought this when they had a special (extra $40 off). After reading the reviews, I thought the manufacture date would not be up to date, but the one I received was manufactured 4/26/17, so it was very up to date. The seat cover is not the smooth silk type nonetheless, it is very comfortable and my 2 1/2 year old loves it! Very happy with this purchase!

My 14 month old loves this new seat. I have no complaints except that I wish the shoulder strap covers were a little smaller. Because she has a small frame, they keep me from being able to pull the buckle up enough on her chest, so we are waiting until she is a little bigger to use those. I wish Not a major issue though. Love the color!

Disappointed
May 16, 2017
I was stuck choosing between the maxi cosi pria and the new nuna rava. I absolutely loved the nuna pipa infant car seat. But because the reviews for the maxi cosi pria were so awesome, I decided to save some money and go with it. I was unfortunately disapointed. The car seat at first glance, looks very nice. But... It was more difficult than I would have liked to set up in my car, and was way too bulky for my Hyundai Elantra and Sonata; which made it hard to put my daughter in and take her out of it. The car seat seems to be cheaply made which causes scratches/damage to show very easily. The straps were too flimsy for my liking and they became twisted easily. My 7 month old could easily pull apart/off the velcro padding by herself. It was almost frustrating to strap her in every time we wanted to go anywhere. I didn't feel like I got my money's worth. My daughter didn't enjoy being in the car seat at all which was the ultimate deciding factor for us to not stick with this car seat. Although, I did thoroughly enjoy the color of the car seat cover. We ordered it in "marlin", which looked beautiful. This car seat may be perfect for others, but it just wasn't right for us
Pros
  • The color "marlin" is gorgeous
Cons
  • Too bulky for my cars
  • Straps are too flimsy and become twisted easily
  • 7 mo. old can pull off velcro padding easily
  • Shows scratches/damage easily

Ex Orbit Baby Customer
May 11, 2017
When my granddaughter was born, my daughter searched for what she thought was the best and least toxic carseat on the market. She purchased the Orbit Baby line with all its clunky, heavy components. We recently found out that there were indeed toxic chemicals used in the Orbit line. Back to the hunt for a really well made and non-toxic alternative. After much research she chose the Maxi Cosi Pria 85 Convertible Car Seat in the Special Edition City Motif. It's precious, very whimsical fabric and a well made sturdy, yet cushy cozy design. We are very pleased with the purchase and little Rose likes it too.

The BEST
April 29, 2017
My son absolutely loves this seat, I actually bought it for my 8 month old but when my almost 3 year old sat in it he claimed it. He said "it's so big and comfy". The fabric is wonderful, It was a BREEZE to install and adjust. I'm considering a second one for my 8 month old because of the amazing price this site offers and how in love with the car seat I am!
Pros
  • The install was so simple
  • The recline is fabulous
  • The built in cup holder is great
  • The fabric and quality are just top notch
Best Uses
  • Rear facing, front facing
Cons
  • None

Love the material and pattern. There are small triangles in the print in blue and yellow that are hard to see in the picture. My 10 month old daughter would cry every time we put her in her infant seat but loves getting in this one. It was easy to install, I did it myself in less than 10 minutes. Very secure once installed. We live in Florida and she does not sweat in this seat. Plan on buying another for our other vehicle.
Pros
  • High end materials
  • Easy to install
