Easy to use and install
August 26, 2019
As a mom of 3 kids 7 and under, I've tried quite a few car seats as they have grown. So, when it came time to upgrade the littlest child one to a convertible car seat I had a few extra things I was looking for. In addition to general safety I wanted the car seat to be easy to clean, easy to adjust, easy to install, and easy to switch between cars. I also wanted it to be generally comfortable, somewhat compact, and have cup holders. Is this too much to ask? I think not.  Soon after looking for a car seat, weeSpring Parent Panel offered to send me the brand new Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat in exchange for a review. The Pria max 3 in 1 claims to provide a seat that will fit your child from 4 - 100lbs that is: 1. Easy to adjust using the QuickFit shoulder harness to raise the harness and headrest height. 2. Easy to clean with seat pads and harness covers that are both machine washable and dryer safe. 3. Has premium fabrics and padding to provide a comfortable seat for your child. 4. Easy to install with the one click LATCH system, easy click-in and 3-position rear-facing adjustment, which should make it easier and faster to correctly install. And 5. It even includes 2 cup holders. Since the car seat theoretically checked most of my boxes I decided to give it a try. When I first pulled it out of the box I noticed the cushy seat and fabric. It seemed like it should be comfortable. Next, I looked at the functionality. It appeared to be easy to adjust and simple enough to install. I was not disappointed. I installed the seat in under 5 minutes. The recline function was easy and smooth to use and simple to have set at correct position to be rear facing. The LATCH system clicked right and was easy to tighten. Once installed, I tried adjusting the fit for my daughter. I found the QuickFit shoulder harness slid up and down seamlessly making it quick and easy to get the right fit. The seat also included the ClipQuik chest clip, which is a magnetic chest clip that makes

The one and only carseat!
August 26, 2019
With this 3 in 1 carseat you can use it for many years! The rear facing position can hold babies from 4-40lbs. The forward facing position can hold children from 22-65lbs. The Belt positiong booster can hold children from 40lns to 100lbs and no longer need a booster seat. I installed this carseat in my SUV and was able to use the one click latch connectors within seconds. I also tried to install this carseat in my car but wasnt as successful because of the size of the carseat when in the rear facing position. This carseat has 3 reclining positions to make sure the child is sitting properly and comfortable. The carseat material is very soft and comforting to touch. With babies there are inserts to keep the baby sitting up positions correctly with the straps. One of the great things about this carseat is how easy it is to remove the fabric and inserts to wash because babies can be messy and I dont like spending a whole lot of time trying to figure out how to put the carseat back together. The cup holders are also recoverable and dishwasher safe to clean and keep the carseat looking clean and new. Safety is the most important concern when picking a carseat. This carseat has side impact protection with GCell patented foam that absorbs crash energy. The Pria Max also has a QuickFit harness that can adjust the headrest and harness all at one time. The ClipQuick is a neat safety clip on the chest that allows you to remove toy child from the seat with one hand. To use the ClipQuik place your hand behind the clip and press and slide apart. This clip is different from other carseats and it's safe and very convenient! The Max Pria also has some other great features that me this carseat so easy to use. On each side of the carseat is EZ out Harness holders to slide the straps behind so they are out of the way and ready to go when you are ready to use again. This is a great Carseat and I love it. I received this Infant Car Seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

Best Carseat Ever!
August 26, 2019
I'm in love with a car seat...trust me, those are words I never thought I would say! Between having two kids and three cars that need seats (our two cars plus our nanny's), we have bought A LOT of carseats. I generally consider them my least favorite baby purchase--kids hate getting in them and I hate setting them up and installing them--but this is the Priya Max 3-in-1 is a game-changer. From the moment I took this carseat out of the box, it took less than 10 minutes to full set up and orient myself to it. Unlike other brands, where you practically need a Ph.D. in Engineering to figure them out, the Priya is a breeze to adjust. There are three recline options, an easy pull-up headrest, and easy to thread crotch strap. Installation was similarly easy. I chose the seatbelt option, but the seat has a LATCH option as well. The real magic comes when you put baby inside of it. The Flip Away harness is what dreams are made of. No fishing the straps from behind a grumpy or sleeping baby, the harness springs open, making loading and unloading easy peasy. And the magnetic chest clip is equally outstanding for loading baby up. The fabric is soft and luxurious and the cup holders twist out for easy cleaning. Most importantly, this carseat has great safety ratings. Though I hope we never have to test out this feature, I am confident knowing that there is extra padding around my daughter's head. Thank you to WeeSpring Parent Panel for providing us with this excellent product!

Cozy for the kids, quick for the parents
August 26, 2019
This car seat has really premium fabric and comfort. I tried this car seat with a 10 month old as well as a 6 year old and they were both very comfortable. In most other car seats, my main issue used to be fishing the buckles out from beneath the child making the child very uncomfortable and also used to take a lot of time. Maxi cosi has fixed that with a very simple solution - a spring assisted crotch buckle pad which fans out as soon as it is unbuckled. There are clips on either side to hold the shoulder straps. The magnetic chest lock also helps in quick strap in. The lower LATCH also deserves a special mention. The red clips make unbuckling the LATCH a piece of cake. Just push in the red button and the LATCH unbuckles. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat. This is one product that will last me years and the only car seat I would have needed to buy had I found this sooner.

Flip away buckles!!
August 26, 2019
I was asked to review the car seat as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel. When I received it, I could not believe how they fit all of the features needed for the next 10 years into one car seat! My favorite part hands down are the flip away buckles. This should become an industry standard. It eliminates the issue we all have of putting the child into the car seat without losing a strap or two behind them. Amazing! It's the little details like that on this car seat that I appreciate in this versatile seat. The fabric is really nice and the buttons are easy to use to recline the seat, or adjust the headrest height. Overall I think this car seat will be a huge win for our family.

Highly recommend!
August 26, 2019
This carseat is great for my petite 6 month old! I'm able to remove padding as needed, which has been awesome. I removed the head support padding but kept the lower padding. The buckles are super easy to do one handed as they use a sliding motion. Every cloth part is removable and washable. My absolute only complaint is that it's a little snug with my other 2 carseats. I recieved this product for free through the WeeSpring parent panel. This is my honest, unbiased opinion.

Great convertible seat for all stages!
August 25, 2019
My toddler loves the Maxi Cosi 3-in-1 convertible carseat! The fabric is super comfy and soft to the touch. The magnetic chest clip is a great feature: my toddler loved the click and I wasn't worried that he could unclip it. The car seat is easy to adjust and I felt like my toddler had a great fit. I thought I had it at the right height before I went to install it, but I realized that it needed to be higher when he got into it in the car. The harness is also very easy to pull for the desired tightness. I think my favorite feature of this car seat is the easy to get to cup holders! My toddler has had a difficult time using cup holders in other convertible seats, but these were well within his reach. I love that the cup holders are detachable and can go right into the dishwasher! The fabric came off easily to wash; it was also not difficult to put the fabric back on to the carseat without having to pull the manual back out. The only drawback to this carseat was installation: I had followed the directions in the manual (which has a lot of information and is well laid out) but the car seat still moved back and forth more than it should. I had to have it installed with a car seat professional before I would have my child use it. I have had all of my car seats professionally checked, so this wasn't a huge issue, but something to keep in mind before use. I really love that this car seat goes from 4 pounds to 100 pounds and that I won't have to shop for another car seat! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat.

Like the Pria Max 3-in-1 a lot!!
August 25, 2019
I was thrilled to have the opportunity to test the Pria Max 3-in-1 convertible car seat as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. I'd heard of the brand before but we'd selected a Chicco system for our infant/stroller setup, and therefore hadn't checked out Maxi-Cosi until receiving this car seat. I've tested it for a few weeks now and love the look and feel of the seat, and its ease of use and thoughtful features. And my young daughter likes it, too! It feels like they were thinking of ease of use and comfort for both child and parent when they were designing this seat, and that is much appreciated. I like that we'll be able to use it for quite a while, as well - my daughter is on the smaller side, so it feels like we'll have many years of use. We found the seat to be very easy to install (especially since we'd had practice!) and love, love the magnetic chest clip and flip away buckles. The buckles on our old system were always getting in the way of putting her in the seat comfortably on the first pass (not a huge problem, but once you don't have to deal with it anymore, you realize how annoying it was). We'd also tested a lot of other car seats while traveling (and reserving with the rental car company) and one of the biggest gripes we'd had with those was how tough it was to adjust the straps easily. And after using this Pria seat, it just highlights how much easier to use this one is than many others on the market. Most importantly, my daughter feels and looks safe in this seat. There's adequate cushioning to keep her comfortable and I am confident she's as well protected as she can be. I also really like the cup holders, as she's getting much more independent and always likes to have a snack and drink at hand! I feel lucky to have had a chance to test this seat. As a first-time parent, it was hard to figure out which equipment/gear to buy, as there are so many options and you don't know exactly what to look for in your first rodeo. This is a winner!

Solid, Safe Car Seat!
August 25, 2019
We just had our first baby and safety is top of mind for us. We've done a lot of research and this seat has many upgraded safety features in comparison to other brands. The fabric is plush and soft - I had no worries wondering if my 2-month-old was comfortable. The magnetic chest clip is a nice touch and the harness and headrest are very easy to adjust. I love that it can go from 4lbs to 100lbs, making it the only car seat we need! On the downside, my husband and I had a hard time installing it in our car. It was difficult to tell if it was level, and being new parents, we would have liked it to have a better system than eyeballing it. Overall, this is a solid car seat Full disclosure, I received this Infant Car Seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

Big fan of this car seat!
August 25, 2019
We have a new favorite car seat! Thank you #weespringparentpanel for providing us with this car seat to review. My son is almost two, and he took to the seat right away. He especially liked the two cupholders, which he uses as toy storage! There are so many great features on this car seat. It has a magnetic chest clip that makes it easy to unhook one-handed, and the harness is spring assisted, so the straps stay slightly popped when no one is in the seat, which prevents me from setting him directly on top of the straps every time he gets in the seat and having to dig for them. Straight out of the box, the car seat looks massive; however, even at 8 months pregnant, I was able to get it into the car and install it without difficulty. Adjusting the headrest and harness was also easy and quick. My only suggestion is that I would prefer an actual bubble level rather than just a line to indicate whether or not the seat is positioned correctly for rear-facing, especially if you have a newborn rider. Obviously, it is great that this seat transitions with my child from 4 lbs to 100 lbs and features side impact protection. Like the rest of the seat, the added pads for smaller children are soft and made in a comfortable, easy to clean fabric. Overall, we are impressed with this car seat and highly recommend it for those in the market for a convertible car seat.

Great features... but didn't fit our needs
August 25, 2019
When I received the Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat from weeSpring Parent Panel I was so excited to see that it could be used for an infant. We just brought our third child home from the hospital and unlike his sisters he hated his car seat. As we went to install the seat I realized that I would have to take him in and out every time we used it rather than using a carrier car seat. Having to do this with two other children did not sound enjoyable so we decided to use it for our four and six year old. The first thing we did was play with the harness system. I loved the idea of the ClipQuik auto-magnetic chest clip and flip away buckle. It was so easy for my girls to get into the car seat but getting out was very difficult. Unfortunately they couldn't get themselves out of the seat which for us is actually a downfall. My four and six year old can get themselves out of their current car seat which has been helpful since I am usually busy getting our infant out first. I have had friends who's children unbuckle themselves while they are driving and I would 100% recommend this car seat to them to overcome this problem. I decided to use the car seat mainly as a booster for my six year old. She was thrilled to try it out because she has been begging for a booster but I am very strict about car seats and wanted to make sure we found a safe one. As soon as we got it installed, which was super easy, I felt completely comfortable with the booster. She sits up high and the belt fits her little body perfectly. The one downfall is that she can't buckle herself in because of the height of the car seat. My absolute favorite part of the car seat are the two cup holders; especially since they are attached. My girls always have toys, water, snacks, etc. that they want to keep close to them and without cup holders everything overflows on the the seats. The two cup holders has helped contained the mess. Overall the quality and extra features are top notch but weren't what we needed.

Comfort and Convenience
August 25, 2019
he Maxi cosi pria max convertible car seat is lovely. To start, the cushions and fabric are buttery soft. They're actually cushioned too. The seat is well put together and you can tell a lot of thought went into it. It's comfortable and convenient which is every parents dream. It handles different colors but they're very modern. The strap covers are built into the seat so they don't slide around or come off. Those things get lost easily when your child figures out how Velcro works. The easy 1 handed check clip is a lifesaver. It's different than anything I've ever used before so it took a quick minute to adjust. But the one handed feature really comes in handy because parents don't have enough hands. The cup holder is pure magic. It's removable silicone and dishwasher safe. Those things get nasty even when you don't use them and it's hard to fit your big hand in to clean it. They thought things through when they made this seat. The only issues I ran into was the head adjustment, when sliding it up and down to adjust the straps and height. It was a bit of a struggle for me. It took 2 hands, big pulls, and a lot of wiggling. My daughter is tall so it was a struggle to adjust it for her. Other than that it was an easy transition to test it with both my front facing toddler and rear facing toddler. It fit in both cars, my Mazda CX-9 and my husbands VW atlas. I received this car seat from the weespring parent panel to test and leave an honest review. Honestly, we enjoyed it, and my kids were very comfortable.

You need this car seat!
August 25, 2019
I recieved this car seat for free from the weeSpring Parent panel. The fabric is so soft and feels really comfortable! We didn't have to use the infant insert but they are also made of really great quality fabric. The magnetic clip and easy out harness are my favorite feature. It really does make it so much easier to get your baby in and out! It was also really easy to install, and that is something I find with all of the Maxi Cosi products I own. I would 100% recommend if you're looking for a car seat to take you from the infant size to toddler age. Both my 6mo old and my 20mo old could fit in it easily with adjustments made for their age/size.

Luxurious fabric and cushion.
August 25, 2019
I received this car seat as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel. This carseat hasn't had much use yet as I am currently using our portable carseat that attaches to the stroller for my daughters first couple months but am hoping to switch over to it permanently here soon (once baby can hold her head up and it's easier getting her in and out). It is much more cushioned than my sons Graco carseat and much easier to tighten down. It does seem pretty large, which gives my tall husband less room to scoot his seat back (we have a toddler too, so 2 carseats in the back). So far we love it though and can't wait to use it more.

Planning to get another one!
August 25, 2019
Living in an area that requires driving to run daily errands means I am in need of a carseat for my toddler that is easy to use without losing any of the safety features a mom wants in something that holds her precious cargo. Enter the Maxi Cosi 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat. This seat has been a dream! To start, I didn't have to call my husband to come put a little extra muscle into the installation, a common scene in the past. I was able to get it snapped in and tightened to the suggested tightness on the first time, so I was impressed right off the bat. The set up for the seat itself was simple and it is easy to adjust as your child grows. The fabric on this seat is extremely soft and the cover is easy to get off and on to throw into the wash. There are two cupholders that lock into place so my toddler cannot just pull them out and throw them. My favorite feature on this seat is hands down the magnetic chest clip. I have two young kiddos so I can be holding my younger child and get my older child unbuckled with one hand. It also makes getting my toddler into the car a breeze, even when fighting the occasional toddler tantrum because I can just flip the chest clip on instead of the added struggle of getting it clipped. When he gets a little older it will be easy for him to do himself as well! I love that this seat grows with my child and I won't have to look for another seat between now and my child outgrowing a carseat/booster. I definitely plan on getting another for my younger son as well. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat to try and review!

Pria Max 3-N-1 Convertible Car Seat!
August 25, 2019
I have been using the Pria Max 3-n-1 convertible car seat for about a month now with my 1 year old. My favorite feature thus far with the car seat has got to be the magnetic chest clip. Its such a great feature to have because it allows you to open the chest clip one handed which ( all lot of moms can appreciate) My second favorite feature is the removable cup holders! you just unscrew them and you are able to wash them more often since they are so easy to screw and unscrew. The car seat was a little bit challenging to instal when it came time to tighten the strap to on the anchors. Otherwise everything else was breezy. The safety features on this car seat are fantastic, i have a relatively petite child and extra padding around the head and through out the car seat for the body support are greatly appreciated and makes me feel at ease knowing my kid is well protected inside of the car seat. The harness is easy to adjust along with the head rest with one button adjustments on both things. The slip away buckles that come with this car seat are helpful to have however as a busy parent, it is time consuming to put the buckles in place to keep them in position. The Pria Max car seat has great fabric that seems to be easy to clean. Its very soft and sleek however i do find that it gets a little hot in the head rest area. When I have taken my kid out at time I find there to be some sweat spots on the fabric where the head rests. I was able to remove parts of the seat cover and found them to come off without a hassle and they clean off easily. All in all, I find this car seat to be high in quality and would recommend it to my friends and family. I only buy car seats that grow with kids because I like products to last a significant amount of time and this car seat is a great mix of high quality, function, and endurance.

Great car seat!
August 25, 2019
This car seat is great! It looks comfortable and both my 4 and 1 year old like it. It's easy to install and to adjust. I love that the harness straps don't get stuck under my son. The magnetic chest lock took a couple tries to unlock but now it is so easy to use. An added bonus is that kids can lock it themselves (if you have an independent child like my 4 year old) but they can't unlock it! The removable, machine washable cover and cup holders are great too. I love this car seat and might need to get a second one so the boys don't fight over it. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat!

Next level car seat
August 25, 2019
The Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat takes car seats to the next level! It was extremely easy to install both front and rear facing in my SUV using the latch connectors. It was snug and secure on the first try without the need for any crazy tugging or pulling. I did not even need to make adjustments to my seat back angle or headrest. It was very simple to adjust the harness and headrest to meet the needs of both of my children who are ages 3 and 1. The magnetic chest clip is a feature I have never seen before, but now I don't know how I lived without it. My three year old can clip the magnetic chest clip herself which she enjoys and I am able to easily open it with one hand. Considering my hands are usually full, this is a huge bonus! The flip away buckles save time by being out of the way and eliminate the wrestling match that can ensue when trying to get a grabby child into their car seat. The fabric of this seat is very luxurious and satiny smooth. Other car seats' fabrics do not even compare. It was very easy to remove and reinstall the car seat fabric as well. I usually dread having to put the car seat fabric back on because it can be difficult, but with this seat it was a breeze. The fact that this seat is able to grow with my children is one of my favorite features as I would rather invest in a high-end long-term product. The side impact protection is second to none and I know my children are safe and secure which is one less thing for me to worry about. I have never had any other car seat that offers removable cup holders like the Pria Max 3-in-1 and I love the ability to pop them out quickly to clean up a small spill. My three year old brags to everyone about her "new seat"! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this product.

Fantastic seat!
August 25, 2019
I love this carseat. This is is being used for my second baby, so I knew what I liked and didn't in a carseat. My favorite thing is the ease of use. It was fairly easy to install as far as carseats go. The padding is great and the fabric is so soft. I love the magnetic chest clip. I was skeptical of this, but it's very secure and still very easy to release one handed. The headrest and straps are VERY easy to adjust! I love that the straps are on a spring, so I don't have to dig for them. The fabric is much easier to take off then my other convertible seat. My only con to this seat is that it's very hard to release the buckles. The button is just so hard to press. Maybe I'll get used to it as it's on the opposite side of my van than I'm used to. I received this product from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

Game Changing Features
August 24, 2019
Until I morph into an octopus, I will continue to love parenting products that don't require the use of all my arms. The Pria Max 3-in-1 convertible car seat has an intuitive button magnet chest strap that can be unlocked with one hand and that's not even my favorite feature. The cup holders come out. They COME OUT PEOPLE!! With a counterclockwise twist, that hopefully my toddler won't figure out, I can remove it and actually wash out the sticky residue of ALL the snacks. I lost count how many times I've barely squeezed a wet wipe into a permanent holder to ineffectively scrape at gooey goldfish remains. Game. Changer. Another practical feature is the padded shoulder straps that flip up making it that much easier to wrestle all the curious wiggly arms into safety. It did take me a full review of the manual to make sure I adjusted them correctly and I ended up tightening them down more than I expected but toddler does not seem to mind. The car seat was a breeze to install. While I haven't needed to remove and clean the full cover yet, I'm so happy its totally washable. Shout out to weeSpring Parent Panel for providing another great product to test out. I'd never heard of MaxiCosi before now but you've definitely caught my attention!

The Car seat that keeps on giving as your child grows!
August 24, 2019
I received the Maxi Cosi Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat to try and review from Weespring Parent Panel. I have an almost 2 year old that seemed to love the seat! He usually is not the biggest fan of being in the car strapped down but he seemed more relaxed and calm when in the Maxi Cosi then his other seat we owned. The magnetic chest clip was a huge plus for me because you are able to unhook it with just one hand. When looking at the clip I swore my toddler would be able to unhook it but it is very secure and locks in tight. The seat has two removable cup holders that you can easily take out to clean. The fabric on the seat seems very durable and I was able to wipe up juice that had split. The one thing I look for in a car seat for a toddler is the ability to clean the fabric and this fabric seems like it will hold up extremely well. I love the fact that we will be able to use this car seat for a long period of time and the seat can grow with my son! It has an adjustable head piece that moves up and down easily as my son gets taller. Although this seat is made for infants as small as 4 pounds, I don't think I would use it for a baby that small. This is solely because for an infant I like to use a carrier car seat where I am able to move them in and out of the car without removing them from the seat. I also like to have the ability to click the car seat into a stroller. This will be the car seat we now use for my toddler! It has everything and more you would want to justify the price. It's a great buy overall!

the only seat you will need
August 24, 2019
I received this Infant Car Seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel and was so excited to give it a test run and review. I have two kids, a 1.5 year and a very tall 3.5 year old. When I received the car seat I was ecstatic to find out that the seat would not only fit my 42" tall boy, but it would last him for years to come! Such a relief as he was just outgrowing his current convertible chair. This is the one stop shop for infant car seats. You can use it from a tiny baby (it comes with all the necessary pads) and it will grow with your child until you eventually convert it into a booster seat. Seriously brilliant. The seat itself was easy to install. It has latch connectors but I used the seatbelt method as my son is over 40lbs. What I appreciate was how easy it was to adjust the headrest with one hand. This seat comes with a magnetic chest clip which I was a little skeptical about at first but I have to say it is easy to use and impossible for my son to unclip himself. It comes with handy harness holders on the sides of the seat and 2 cup holders, one on either side- all not necessary features for me personally, but nice to have. One feature I have not used but is great for younger children is the 3 position recline. We do travel a lot on planes and I would be excited to use the recline feature on our next plane ride as we like to encourage our kids to sleep when we fly. The fabric of the seat feels smooth and luxurious and there are tiny perforations on the seat back part to keep your child cool in the hot summer months. It comes off completely for washing which I have not tried myself but am so happy about. This seat is not wide like some other ones I have seen on the market. I have not needed to try to fit 3 across the back of my car so I can't vouch for whether or not it could work, however, it does fit into my larger sedan very well and there would easily be space for two people to sit without car seats. My son gives it a thumbs up and so do I!

Goldilocks of car seats
August 24, 2019
I tested this car seat out for the past month in a 2014 Subaru Forester and 2019 Honda Odyssey with a 36" tall, 27 lb. almost 2 year old and a 24" tall 13lb 2 month old who cannot hold his head up. I'm 5'7" and my husband is 6'2". We took this car seat on a 12+ hour road trip and everywhere in between and I can definitely say we love it! What we love: in the more upright rear facing position required for any baby that can hold their head up, this seat fits really well in the Subaru Forester allowing for a generous amount of leg room for the seat in front and for the kid in the car seat and gets a SUPER tight and secure fit with both LATCH and seat belt installation. We all have long legs in my family and finding a car seat that fits in the car and gives EVERYONE leg room is near impossible, this one fits the bill! Everything is easy to remove, and wash AND dry (car seat cover, cup holders). This car seat survived every kind of mess, the fact that you can put it in the dryer means that you can get back on the road fast without having to put your kid in a damp seat. There aren't a ton of weird crevices in this seat so hosing it down was a breeze! Easy to get kids in and out of with the magnetic chest clip and spring loaded harness. This was so helpful with my squirmy bigger baby as I wasn't digging under him while he was kicking. It's also very easy to switch between kiddos! What we didn't like: for kids who can't hold their head up the installation is a little clunky. In the Subaru, we needed to use a pool noodle and the seat took up way more room front to back, almost all of the front passenger leg room. This is a non-issue if you're using this seat for any baby that can hold their head up! Seatbelt installation may be hard for people with bigger hands, but it's still easy! While we received this product to test as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel, we will definitely be purchasing another one once our little guy grows out of his MicoMax 30

Thoughtfully made carseat for life!
August 24, 2019
Let me first say that I am so impressed that my 4 month old and (very tall) 3 year old were able to share a carseat! I was in the market for a booster seat, anticipating that my infant would eventually inherit her big sister's convertible seat, and it would be time for a harness-to-booster. We were so blessed to receive this carseat as part of the weeSpring parent panel, and it is exactly what I had in mind for my older child, but I decided to try out on my infant too just for fun, and it was a great fit for both of them! The thing I appreciate most about this seat is that it's built for practical longevity. Snacks and potty accidents will have you replacing your car seat long before the child hits the height and weight limits, so what I love about this seat is the *machine washable* cover and dishwasher safe cup holders! It really could last you through the pre-school years. It's also pretty solid, and felt well-made in terms of safety. Installing the carseat in the rear-facing position took some time. I'm a stickler for a good installation, and I did end up needing to place a rolled-up towel to the get the angle perfectly level. This is not a seat that I would plan to move from car-to-car on a regular basis. The forward-facing installation was much simpler; just your typical threading the seat-belt through the back. I've used car seats where the seat lifts up for installation, but this is one that requires you to kind of reach through blindly. Once you get the general hang of installing car seats though, you won't even think about it. Speaking of installation, a MUST-HAVE for any non-bucket car seat is an easily adjustable harness. Some carseats require you to un-install the whole thing just to raise the shoulder height (and let me tell you, kids grow fast!) With this one, it's SO EASY! You just press a button and raise it as high as you need in a few seconds. Overall, I would highly recommend this as an everyday car seat that you can buy once and be done!

My baby loves this carseat!
August 23, 2019
The Pria 3-in-1 is such a beautiful carseat! The high quality of the materials and fabric make it look so sleek and premium! I also loved how cushioned my newborn was secured into this seat - the headrest and additional infant bolster are the best padding I've seen in a carseat yet! It's also really easy to get my baby in and out - the magnetic chest clip and flip away buckles make it so I don't have to fumble around to get the seat ready while holding the baby. Although I do wish the chest clip contoured to the baby a bit better - it seems to sit a bit awkwardly on him and it's kind of hard-edged underneath. But I'm pretty sure my baby is super comfy in this seat - we were using a carry carseat before and he would scream the entire time - in the Pria, he just contentedly hangs out or sleeps! I'm really impressed by the Pria and I appreciate that the Maxi-Cosi brand continues to deliver on uncompromising safety for my baby! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this product!

Great carseat, easy to use
August 23, 2019
This is an amazing carseat! My daughter just turned 14 months and I admittedly had her in the infant seat too long but she's a small kid. This seat came just in time! The fabric and cushioning are so soft - she looks so comfy in her new carseat. The soft sides make me feel at ease if we were ever in a crash. I love that it goes from rear facing to forward facing and finally to booster seat, it's well worth it to not have to buy yet another carseat or booster in a few years. The best thing about this is the magnetic chest clip. It's so easy it practically clips itself. The headrest is so simple to adjust, which also moves the straps up and down. It's nice to be able to adjust that without having to completely uninstall the carseat. We had a small issue getting the seat tight enough when we were installing, but after adjusting the back of the car's seat, it is now perfect. Thank you to weeSpring Parent Panel for sending me this carseat to test and review.

Great Features
August 23, 2019
I was given this product to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. Initially, I was very impressed by the looks of it. The color is nice (we have the nomad black) and the fabric looks stylish and comfortable. We adjusted it for our 7 week-old baby and found the chest clip to be a little overwhelming for his size (9 lbs). I'm sure it will be fine when he's a little bigger. Overall, I think it's a very nice and good-looking car seat. I'm excited that we will be able to use it for several years and stages- both rear and forward facing then booster mode. The features set it apart from other convertible car seats - such as the ClipQuik magnet chest clip and the flip away buckle, which keeps the buckle from getting stuck under your child when you put them in the seat. I e been a fan of Maxi-Cosi for a while and this product doesn't disappoint.

Superior Safety and Comfort as Your Child Grows
August 23, 2019
My husband is a firefighter/paramedic and he is very particular about car seats. Our 6 month old son just recently outgrew the "bucket" car seat and we had to upgrade to a convertible car seat. The Pria Max 3 in 1 Convertible Car Seat met my husband's standards. It feels substantial; the foam padding surrounds the baby while the frame and outter part of the car seat is firm and doesn't flex when pressure is applied (my husband insists this is important because in an accident, the car seat could potentially be impacted). My son loves it because he sits up high and seems comfortable with all the padding. Getting him in the car seat is easy thanks to the spring assist EZ out harnesses that magically stays off to the side and the Magnetic chest lock is a life saver because I don't always have two hands to use. Adjusting the height of the straps is the easiest thing ever (see video). This design lets you push the button and pull up or down to adjust. I really appreciate this convenience and it again goes one more step to fitting well and being safe. The material is soft and easy to spot clean. We haven't had to wash the entire thing yet, but as easy as it is to spot clean I have high hopes for a full wash. It feels soft like moisture wicking material, which keeps the little guy cool on long trips. The cup holders are lower than most car seats and more convenient because they don't interfere when placing my son in the seat. Other car seats catch my daughter's foot, shoe, etc. The infant pillows provide support for baby boy, keeping him tight and snug, which means safe for a car seat. I had never heard of Maxi Cosa before, but this car seat has definitely put this brand on our radar. Thank you to weeSpring Parent Panel for letting me test this seat. We are very impressed with its features and trusts it is keeping our baby safe.

Luxury Car Seat for Precious Cargo!
August 23, 2019
I am so happy that I received the Maxi Cosi Pria Max 3 in 1Convertible Car Seat from the WeeSpring Parent Panel for Testing! We were in the market for another car seat, and this one far exceeded our expectations. We have been pretty loyal to another brand, but our perspectives have totally changed. The install was the easiest we've done by far! It feels so sturdy and strong that I know my child will be safe in it. The extra padding makes it extra cozy, too. The harness and headrest were super simple to adjust and get a good fit. The magnetic chest clip gave me that extra feeling of security. The fabric is extremely easy to remove and wash for the inevitable messes that littles create! Overall, I would definitely recommend this to anyone in the market for a new car seat! You won't be disappointed by the added features that make this such a luxurious seat for our most precious cargo!

Very nice seat!!!
August 23, 2019
I received the Maxi Cosi Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel to use and review. The first thing I noticed when I took it out of the box was the fabric. It is so soft and cushy. It is also machine washable which will be very convenient in the future. Installation wasn't the easiest, but we got it in. Because of the size of the seat along with the installation hassle, I wouldn't recommend switching this seat between cars. The harness and headrest are super easy to adjust and the magnetic chest clip and fly away buckles make getting baby in and out so much easier. And even though she is still rear facing, my daughter can now see out the windows to look around which she absolutely loves! I look forward to using this seat for many years to come. Thank you again to the weeSpring Parent Panel!

So incredibly plush!
August 23, 2019
I was so excited to be given this product to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. My favorite things about it: it is SO plush! I loved the material, as did my toddler (she enjoyed stroking it). I loved the safety features, the head pillow, it was fairly easy to install, easy to get my kids in and out, and it just seems like an all-around very comfortable seat for my kids to ride in. I wish that the seats in my car felt like this! I took off a star because I like having a travel system with a newborn (I tested this out with my 1-month old and 2-year old) because it's nice to not have to wake up a baby when moving her in and out of the car. A drawback to me is that because the chair is so plush, it's also fairly wide -- in our mini-SUV, you would *not* be able to seat an adult in the second row if you have this plus another car seat. We like having the flexibility of having an adult ride in the back if possible. That being said, I am not sure if it would be possible to have such a luxe feeling car seat that is also narrow enough to allow for a backseat passenger.

Great seat for hot climates
August 23, 2019
I received this as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel. I really liked the feel of the fabric and found that in even 100+ degree weather my daughter's back still felt cool and dry, whereas it was hot and sweaty in her old car seat. It fits well in the back of my Prius behind the driver seat and both my husband (6') and I (5'4") still have decent leg room. The installation instructions where great, but I would have like more instruction on the seat inserts (like are what length or weight they should be removed). In the picture my daughter has the seat pad in place, but we removed it because it wasn't needed. Overall I'm pretty happy with this car seat and think it'll last us for the long haul.

Great car seat, with a number of design features that have eliminated problems of other car seats (all brands). Maxi-Cosi has a list of most of these on the ad, and they are all true. Comfortable and padded, but light to carry. Can really be used from 4 to 100 pounds.

Safe, snug and satisfied baby and mom!
August 22, 2019
As a brand new mom, I experienced a bit of anxiety prior to driving my newborn son around for the first time. It was important to me that my baby was not only safe, but also comfortable - and I wanted something that looked good in the back of our car. The Pria Max 3-in-1 checked all of these boxes! My son sits snuggly in the carseat and seems comfortable on each ride we take in the car. The newborn inserts provide him with all of the extra padding he needs, and it give me peace of mind knowing he is safe. The inserts are also very easy to install and remove. From a strictly aesthetic perspective, the carseat looks sleek. The interior fabric is soft and comfortable for my child, and it feels thick enough to pass the test of time. Hands down, my favorite feature of this carseat is the magnetic chest clip. It seems like such a simple concept, but it truly makes taking my son in and out of the carseat a breeze. The fact that the clip can be operated one-handed is a major plus, especially when one hand is already occupied. I do need to mention that install was slightly confusing. The steps were laid out in an understandable manner, but I struggled to find the clips to anchor the seat at first and found the pictures to be confusing at times. However, now that I have installed the seat once, it won't be an issue moving forward and know that when the time comes to change to a forward facing setting, the process will move much more quickly. All in all I have been very satisfied with this carseat and know we will be getting plenty of use as my child grows. Thank you to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with the Pria Max 3-in-1 carseat to test and review.

Convenience to the MAX
August 22, 2019
I was given this Infant Car Seat to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. All of the small inconveniences you may find with a car seat are addressed and eliminated with the Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat from Maxi Cosi. My favorite feature (aside from obvious safety feature importance) has to be the strap and buckle design. The lower buckle has a removable padded piece that holds it forward when not in use. This adds a comfort feature for my daughter as well as an incredible convenience when putting her in the seat. The shoulder straps are also innovative, in that the pads are attached to the back. They stick out a little when not in use to further simplify the process of putting the child in the seat. It also saves time on repositioning the pads every time you put the child in or take them out. Additionally, there are convenient clips on the sides to hold the shoulder straps out of the way when not in use. The chest clip is magnetic, which I've found to be somewhat more convenient than the usual buckle. Install was easy using the latch system in my vehicle. The car seat itself seemed big, but once it was installed and tightened it allowed the front seat to be in the same position as it was. I find that when my daughter falls asleep in the seat, she looks very comfortable. The fabric and design are beautiful and classy. I have not had to remove the seat cover to wash yet, but it looks very easy. The cup holders are shallow but in a great position for easy access. I love that they screw out for easy cleaning. The headrest is easy to adjust and the straps adjust right along with it. Finally, I must mention the safety features which are, of course, most important. In addition to comfort, the padded seat and sides provide tremendous impact safety, even from the side collisions. The car seat seems taller than some, which isn't surprising as this car seat works up to 10 years old. I'm looking forward to many more years with this car seat!

5 stars across the board!
August 22, 2019
As a busy Mom living in the Texas heat, there's nothing that I love more than baby gear that reduces stress while being outdoors, and let me tell you, this car seat does just that! It has truly made our daily lives so much easier! We all know the struggle of trying to get your baby out of the car seat quick enough before the heat (or cold depending on where you live) gets to the both of you. Or trying to juggle a second child hanging on your other side. Time and time again we have struggled with carseat harnesses, buckles and clips that get stuck and increase the sweat going down our backs by 300% lol! With the Pria Max Convertible Car Seat the struggle is totally gone! My absolute favorite feature about this car seat is the auto magnetic chest clip that you can use with one hand. Yes, ONE HAND! I'm able to unbuckle my baby and get him out all while holding on to my daughter, diaper bag, purse, or whatever else I'm carrying. It's super duper easy to use! Installing it was also a breeze with the one click latch system. The material on it feels so soft and luxurious! My husband loves the sleek, simple design of it. It's not bulky like many others we've seen. My baby boy has no trouble falling asleep comfortably every time we're in the car. I also want to point out the removable cup holders that make cleaning so quick and easy! I honestly can't say enough good things about it! It's been such a treat having been able to use the Pria Max on a daily basis! Thank you so much to Weespring Parent Panel for providing us with this amazing car seat! From 4lbs to 100lbs, it's the only car seat you'll ever need!

Toddler Approved!
August 22, 2019
Our fussy toddler actually sat in this car seat without complaint and even said "cool car seat, momma!" He's 90th percentile for weight and height so we love that this car seat can accommodate up to 85 pounds in the future. I love the magnetic clip. It makes life easier to do things one handed with a super busy bodied toddler and a newborn (baby sister is only 3 months). It was a breeze to install and it makes me rest easy knowing that it's one of the best in class for safety. Adjusting the harness and headrest were a snap and the fabric is pretty luxe, too. I love that everything is removable because I have been through some gnarly blow outs in the past that taught me to always pick a car seat that is easy to clean. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat!

Comfort, luxury fabrics and easy seat adjustment!
August 22, 2019
First off I was given this Infant Car Seat to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel and the timing could not have been more perfect. Our daughter was turning a year and growing out of her current infant car seat so we were in the market for a convertible car seat anyways. I will admit that this seat was not on our radar and not one that we were considering, but since it was free I figured I would give it a go. And boy am I glad I did. My daughter LOVES this seat. The fabric is super soft and comfortable and she loves the cup holders to put her bottle in once she is finished. She passes out in the seat almost every time we get into the car since she is so comfy in it. The adjustable seat back is a breeze and I love the magnetic chest clip and seatbelt holders, which make getting her into the seat so much easier. I was worried that she might figure the magnetic clip out on her own and unbuckle herself, but once I gave it a try I realized that there is a bit of a trick to it that she won't be able to master for some time. The cup holders come out easy for cleaning as does the car seat. You don't even have to uninstall the car seat to remove the covers for cleaning which is amazing. The only issue I did have was with the directions for the install. The install was super easy, but the directions were a bit confusing if the Level 2 recline was being used (which is what I was using). It made it seam as if the level line did not need to be level for the Level 2 recline and only needed to be Level for Level 3, but that is not the case. After a few head flops I adjusted the recline to level and we were good to go. So far I love the seat and I am very happy with it.

The best purchase you will ever make!
August 22, 2019
If I could give this product more than five stars I would. There is nothing about this car seat that I do not absolutely love! My initial impression was that it looked very comfortable and luxurious. The fabric is soft, it is breathable, and the color is perfect. I also noted that the cup holders are removable, making every piece of the seat easy to remove and clean. Safety is of course my number one concern when choosing a car seat and I felt good about what I read as far as the energy absorbent foam and protection of this one. It also couldn't have been any easier to install. It is hard to choose a favorite feature of this seat, but as a mother of three, ranging from newborn to three years old, I was extremely excited that this would be the only safety seat I would ever need. I tried the seat with all three children and it was simple to adjust the harness, headrest and extra cushions to accommodate each. I look forward to trying it out as a booster in the future. I will admit that I was a bit skeptical about the magnetic chest clip and flip away buckles. I feared the magnetic clip would be too easy for an adventurous toddler to get out of, but I'm happy to say that I ended up loving it. I am confident it is safe since it still requires a certain combination of motions to unbuckle and as a bonus I can work it one handed, which is always helpful when getting three kids and their stuff in and out of a car. The flip away buckles also turned out to be handy, I don't find myself searching behind my child for the straps. Overall, I one hundred percent recommend this seat to anyone searching for a safe, comfortable, convenient and long lasting car seat! Thank you so much to weeSpring Parent Panel for giving me the opportunity to try it.

Sleek Design & Easy to Use
August 21, 2019
This thing rides like a dream! From opening the box, you can tell that the Maxi-Cosi Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible carseat is going to be comfortable. The fabric is soft, the infant inserts provide excellent cushioning, and the fact that you can easily remove it to be washed is AMAZING. My favorite feature of this carseat is the magnetic chest clip. SO easy to quickly snap your kiddo in there and get going. I also really like that you can hold the harness back with the side clips. I can't tell you how many times I was pulling the straps out from underneath my son in his old carseat. I'm so glad I love this carseat, because it is going to be the LAST carseat I ever need! My son is almost 1 year and is still rear facing, but eventually this seat can turn forward facing and then become a booster seat. Making these transitions should be pretty smooth, because the headrest is easy to adjust and it also adjusts the harness height simultaneously. No pulling straps out the back and feeding them back in every time your kid has a growth spurt! My only con is that I have found it a little hard to pull the chest straps. Not impossible, but you definitely have to put a little muscle into it. That might be a good thing though? Then you know it's secure! Thank you to weeSpring Parent Panel for sending me this carseat to try and review.

Convertible behemoth that lasts FOREVER!
August 21, 2019
First thing I noticed about this carseat is the size. Anyone purchasing a convertible carseat, especially one that transitions into a booster, knows that they are huge. They have to be to be safe for children at each stage. The Pria Max 3-in-1 isn't the best in terms of leaving front to back space, my husband can't get comfortable with in behind the drivers seat. Additionally, I believe all car seats, especially high end ones like this, should come with a bubble level to help parents with the install. Other than that, I love this carseat. The cover is machine washable, which is great if you have a baby with reflux issues like I do. There's enough pillows that you can customize the support around their body and head. My son cries much less in this carseat than in an infant carseat and I believe it's because of the cushy pillows it comes with. I am so in awe of the magnetic chest clip. It's so easy getting him in and out of the carseat, the straps are never in the way. I've installed a lot of carseats as well; this one was pleasantly easy to get in and out. The latches have buttons so that if you have to switch cars, you aren't fiddling with the latch system trying to get the car seat out. Since I'm using this for my 2 month old, I can't say much for forward or booster mode, but I'm happy that I get to use it for the foreseeable future (ie till he's 10). I'm so happy I received this carseat from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

A+ all around car seat
August 21, 2019
I received The Pria Max 3 in 1 convertible car seat thru the weeSpring parent panel to test and review what I can say about this product is that The fabric is very soft to the touch for your baby. It also has tons of features that include the magnetic chest clip that you can easily take off with ease. As well as the easy to adjust harness. One of my favorite things about the car seat is the way the harness is kept away from the neck and focuses more on the shoulders. On top of that it was very easy to install in the my vehicle. And also how easy and effortless it was to remove and install the infant inserts. Last but not least I love the way in protects my baby when she's in it none of her limbs are exposed or just hanging out of the car seat. All in all I give the Pria Max 3 in 1 convertible car seat an A+ and highly recommended this product to all parents looking for a safe and easy to use car seat.

Versatile seat grows with your child (love the magnetic clip
August 21, 2019
As a part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel I was able to test the Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat on my three kids ranging in age from almost 5 months to 4 and 6 years old. I was able to get a comfortable fit for all of my kids. This is my favorite feature of the seat, the ability to grow with my child. I have never used a car seat with a magnetic chest clip so I wasn't sure how I would like it but I found I loved it! It took my older kids a few tries but they got the hang of it too. The clip looked a little large on my infant but she didn't seem bothered by it at all. Getting my kids in and out of the seat was easy thanks to the harness holders. I also like that the harness can be used up to 65lbs. I like keeping my children in a 5 point harness for as long as possible. The seat comes with extra support pillows to get a small baby in the optimal position. The EZ out harness was just as the name describes, easy! I like the shoulder harness pads and that they can be removed for smaller babies. The pads are connected behind the seat pad so it gives full coverage to prevent chafing on the neck. Removable cup holders are definitely a plus. The fabric also comes off easily which is another plus when dealing with little kids and their messes. Installing the seat was very straight forward and simple. I like using the latch system but tried both ways for installation and didn't have a problem with either. The seat really is quite versatile in fitting a wide range of kids (birth on up). My 6 year old (who is more the size of an 8 year old) fit in the seat but I felt it was getting a little on the small size for her but it still fit her and she seemed comfortable when I tested it on her. All in all this is a great seat and I would recommend it.

Love this more than my "name brand" carseats!
August 21, 2019
Thank you so much to WeeSpring Parent Panel for selecting me to review this item first of all. And secondly, holy cow am I blown away by the features on this 3-in-1 car seat! The cushioning is super cozy, thick, and feels like a cloud. Can I please have a mattress made out of this material?! haha. And you guys, the two cupholders are removeable with an easy twist. Such a small thing, that makes a huge difference. They can also be put in the dishwasher, which is glorious. My "name brand" carseat cupholders are literally screwed in, and can't be removed without a tool...no thanks. And I absolutely LOVE the magnetic chest clip. I can't tell you how many times I've accidently pinched my kids fingers in their old car seats because of the traditional closure. This magnet feels so much safer and easier to use.

Attractive and sturdy chair
August 21, 2019
I actually really like the design of this car seat. It's a sturdy, good looking chair. My husband installed it fairly easily but we took it to the Sherrifs office just to double check because it felt a little loose. They confirmed it was installed correctly. My son is almost 4 months old and he looked really secure in the seat, which was obviously important to me. The magnetic clip / buckle in front wasn't as easy to open as they had claimed however. Took a few tries and still takes me a few tries to open it. The seat feels a bit too heavy for my young son but I bet it will be fine as he continues to grow. I received this as part of the weeSpring parent panel.

Rough install but otherwise perfect
August 20, 2019
This car seat was a huge pain to install. I tried, my husband tried, my dad tried. It took both my husband and my dad, one had to hold it down while the other tightened with all their might. However, after that ordeal I LOVE this seat. Luckily we don't move the seat from car to car, I would not recommend this seat to those who do. The magnetic chest clip is awesome, the fabric is soft and comfy, my son's head does not fall forward when he falls asleep in it. Overall, we are very happy with this car seat. I received this product as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel.

The Pria Max 3-in-1 is a great carseat with awesome features
August 20, 2019
We were so lucky to get to receive the Maxi Cosi Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat courtesy of the weeSpring Parent Panel to test out for no charge. It is a very versatile car seat that can be used in children from 4 to 100 lbs. All of my kids, except for the one who can't talk, were fighting over who should get to use the new comfy car seat. It has some seriously awesome and unique features, like a one handed magnetic clip release that I can actually do with one hand. This doesn't seem like a big deal, but to be able to unbuckle a child with my only free hand is really helpful. I also love the EZ strap holders on the side because you can easily hook the straps out of the way while your child gets in the seat. This really helps prevent twisted and tangled car seat straps. The feature the kids liked best was that it had two cup holders, and, as a parent, I liked that they were removable and dishwasher safe. It is a very study car seat and has great safety features. I especially love the Quickfit harness adjustment feature that raises the harness and the headrest at the same time just by pushing the button. That made it so easy to get it to the safest headrest height. The fabric is super soft and cozy, and it wipes off very easily, which is essential in car seats. It is a little bit wide, but I was still able to get a snug install pretty easily in my vehicle with either the lower anchor install or seat belt installation. The instruction manual is so awesome and easy to follow, with very detailed step by step instructions that help ensure you get a safe fit for your specific child. The best thing about the Pria 3-in-1 Convertible Car Sear is that not only is it safe, and has great added features, but it has the capability to be an infant car seat, convertible car seat, and a booster all in one. The combination of a beautiful car seat with so many added features and the 3 in 1 capability is hard to beat. So far we are really loving this car seat.

Stylish and Versatile Car Seat
August 20, 2019
The Pria Max 3-in-1 convertible car seat is one of my favorite car seats. The versatility this has is one of the best yet. I have three children from 5 years to 4 months and they can all comfortably ride in this car seat . I requested this seat for my littlest so he would be able to grow with one chair. Starting from the top, this chair has wonderful features including an easy to wash cover. (You don't even have to remove the harness straps to get the cover off!!). It also has an adjustable headrest so no rethreading everything - which is why it's pretty simple if another child needs to use the seat. The chest clip is magnetic (what?!), so it snaps in quickly and is rather difficult for a little one to remove themselves (for those escape artists..). Also, the company will send you another type of chest clip if you or your child/grandchild are unable to be near something magnetic like that due to medical devices. When getting the kids in and out, I can loosen the straps and tuck them to the side in harness holders (one of my favorite parts of this seat). It makes getting a little baby in and out much easier. The seat has a nice amount of cushion and comes with a bunch of accessories; strap covers, infant head and body pillow, and seat cushion for the really small babies. The cup holders are removable by twisting - I like that for the ease of cleaning. I did recline mode 2 for rear facing with latch and that made the seat level in my Honda Pilot. Install was a breeze as well, the seat is a little lighter and less bulky than others. Currently my baby is 16lbs, my daughter 34lbs, and my oldest son 51lbs. I use the harness on all of them. My older two enjoy using the seat in forward facing position (seat belt, not latch) but I have yet to switch to booster mode with my oldest as this seat is intended more for my littlest, when he rides with me. All opinions are my own. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat!

Safety + luxury = the perfect car seat mix for baby
August 20, 2019
We love our new Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat! The look and feel of the car seat is all cozy and comfy with the added bonus of extra safety features. My favorite part of the car seat is the magnetic chest latch, making daycare drop off and pick up at least 16x easier. My 7-month old's favorite part is the cup holders, which we know will come in handy as he gets bigger. I am so glad to be able to keep using this car seat as he grows! So grateful we got to try this car seat as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel.
