Safe and comfortable, not easy to install
August 20, 2019
First off, I received this Infant Car Seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel for an honest review. It could not have come at a better time as I was in the market for a new car seat as my baby turned one. I love that this seat looks like a tank. It is sturdy, well cushioned, and seems comfortable. Fabric is good quality, not scratchy and easy to remove to wash (which I already did, cold water, turned out brand new). The magnets make it easy to use the inserts but I'm still struggling with the magnetic chest clip. I can use it fine, but it is not as easy as the instructions make it out to be. Baby loves it, looks comfortable (falls asleep pretty quick in it when we go for a ride) harness is easy to adjust. I did take a point off because it is not easy to install. Also if you have a small car you might have issues with having enough room to install or to tilt back for comfort. This may not be a big issue if you place the seat in the middle (have space to tilt back since there is no front seat to block) but we put her by the door and the seat in front of it definitely has to be set forward. These are easy hurdles to surpass though for a safe and comfortable ride.

Hope to use for years to come
August 20, 2019
I received this car seat as part of a parent review panel in exchange for my review. Overall i think it is a great convertible car seat. It is a bit bulky and had we had a little trouble installing it, but it took less than 30 minutes to get it in and adjusted the first time and less than 15 the second time. It looks really nice and sturdy, I think I will get several years of use out of it. While it is bigger than my infant seat, my baby seems comfortable and a lot less hot in it. Her back wasn't sweating after an hour long drive in traffic. The buckles are really easy to use. I like the multi position recline, it will make it easier to keep her rear facing longer.

Convenient Convertible Car Seat
August 20, 2019
Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Convertible Car Seat free of charge for an honest review. My family was in the market for a convertible car seat when this seat appeared at our home. The first thing I noticed was the weight of the seat, it is not very heavy at all but it feels durable. The material feels extremely comfortable and high quality and conveniently matched the upholstery of my car. I've had no complaints or crying fits from my child when she's in the seat. I absolutely love the harness holders because I don't have to try and dig it out from under my child because she's sitting on it. Also, a close second is the padding on the lower buckle because it tends to get hot in the summer and this provides protection for both my child and me. The cup holders are very easy to remove and replace. The harness system was easy to adjust and apply although I did consult the manual to ensure I was doing everything correctly. The seat was also easy to install in my vehicle and there is still room for another passenger on each side of the seat, so even I can sit there when I strap her in. I am pleased with the safety measures taken by Maxi Cosi as they help me to feel more confident that this seat will help keep my child safe while in a vehicle. I'm also excited about the multiple functions and the ability to use this seat for years to come. The magnetic chest clip has required somewhat of a learning curve for me as I'm more familiar with other types of closures. I'm not sure when my child will be able to reach the cupholders, but as of now she can't when she's buckled in and she's 12 months. I mistook the pillows for infant supports so I took them out but now I can't remember exactly how they were positioned when the chair arrived. Perhaps labeling the pillows more clearly would help. I'm also not sure how well this would fit in my husband's sedan as he doesn't have nearly as much space between his front and back seats.

A super comfortable, great seat with unique bonus features!
August 20, 2019
I am currently expecting, and when this baby comes we will have 3 under 3 years old. So we are no stranger to convertible car seats! This is our 5th so far, across 4 models and 3 brands and it is hands down my favorite. I received this car seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel in exchange for my honest feedback, and I couldn't be happier. The car seat is super plush and seems so comfortable, and it even got my 10 month old to nap in the car which he just simply never does. When you're putting the baby in, the chest clips kind of stay out of the way so there's a lot less wrestling there (a feature I didn't realize I always wanted!). The magnetic chest clip is super easy to use and although convenient, it does make the chest clip more bulky and I worry more about whether its in the right spot than with the conventional clip. I would warn that if you are looking for a slimmer seat, this one is not it - its pretty wide. We have a van so there are no issues there, but there's no way we could do 3 across in my husband's sedan with this seat. It was pretty easy to adjust to the size of my babies, and to install - very similar to most others, but I will mention that it doesn't have a bubble level so it just requires paying a little bit more attention. Overall with some small criticisms I would still say this seat is a favorite!

Cushy, Comfortable, and Safe
August 20, 2019
Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel, I was given a Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat to test out. Upon opening the box, my husband commented on how cushy the seat looked and I love how soft the fabric is. While the car seat didn't spare my husband and I our traditional car-seat-installation argument, it was very easy to install and tighten(meaning that the argument was just us and had nothing to do with the car seat). My 3 & 5 year old kids have been taking turns riding in the seat and they both think it's very comfortable. I like that it looks great and is safe. My 3 year old son loves having 2 cupholders and I love that they are easy to remove and can get washed in the dishwasher!! One of the very few cons about this car seat is the height adjustment. It's actually kind of hard to do physically because it's not quite a button and it's not quite a pull so your hand doesn't quite know what to do to get it to work. Since my 2 older children tend to switch between car seats depending on who is in the car, I wish it was easier to adjust quickly. 2 of my favorite features on this car seat are the magnetic chest clip and flip away buckles. Now my crazy, energetic children aren't getting tangled in the buckles in their rush to get out of the car! The magnetic chest clip actually makes it easier to get them buckled in quickly and It's awesome that I can undo it with 1 hand!! I love a children's product that grows with them like this car seat and I would recommend it to anyone considering buying a convertible car seat.

Great For Babies And Toddlers
August 20, 2019
We have two little ones in our household, a toddler and a newborn. Baby gear is pretty much our life. Maxi-Cosi has always come highly recommended in my mom groups, so I was super excited when I was given the Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. For reference, I use it with my toddler in my crossover. Those who are familiar with the brand already know that Maxi-Cosi consistently offers some of the most luxurious and comfortable fabrics on the market. This seat is no different and is made with the same quality materials we've come to love and expect. It feels great, and is cushioned to keep your little one comfortable. My child seems happily relaxed in this seat and we've had many successfully car naps since installing it. 

My favorite features of this car seat are the buckles and harness. Being almost two, my little guy throws some epic, floppy body tantrums. Getting him into a car can be a difficult and arduous experience. Thankfully, this harness actually stays in place, meaning the straps don't flop around and get stuck under your child. This makes it super easy to get them in and out without struggle. I also loved the easy slide magnetic chest clip - it's easier on your fingers to just slide it, and you don't have to struggle with clipping them in. The back of this seat is high, which makes it great for growing alongside your child. However, the tall back can make it harder to see your child if you are using backseat mirrors, so you'll need to readjust those when installing this seat. The cupholders are also a little smaller, which for us is a non-issue as we use the cupholders primarily to house whatever our favorite toy car is that day (as my toddler prefers his cup by his lap). All-in-all I would consider this one of the nicest and most functional seats on the market. Its the high-end quality product you'd expect from the brand. If you want something stylish yet durable that will last you years this is it.

Stylish Safe Car Seat
August 20, 2019
I was given this Infant Car Seat to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. It has many amazing features that I prefer over car seats I have utilized in the past. To start, the car seat is light weight and not bulky. This makes it easy to transport and I'm sure will come in handy if we ever have to bring it with us on an airplane. The actual design of the seat is beautiful. There are different shades of color and patterns incorporated, making it very stylish! It has two cup holders that are removable and dishwasher safe! They are a little on the small side, but are perfect for holding toys. As opposed to other car seats I have owned, the shoulder straps on this car seat are built in so they don't slide up and down or twist and turn as you are trying to strap your child in. This is very helpful and my favorite feature! When installing the seat, I preferred the seat belt like clip provided to tether the seat as opposed to a hook I've seen on other car seats. Loosening and tightening the harness is easy and I found the magnetic chest lock to be very user friendly making it a breeze to secure your child quickly! The infant pillows and cushions on the car seat feel extremely comfortable and are very soft and plush. It has phenomenal safety features including crash absorbent technology all along the sides of the seat. Best of all, it's built to grow with your child allowing them to use from birth to 100 lbs! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat, we look forward to using it for many years.

I received the Maxi Cosi Pria Max 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat as a gift from the weeSpring Parent Panel. Having previously just installed a separate infant carrier for our 3 month old daughter that was quite troublesome, I had some apprehensions about installing a new car seat. However, I was incredibly impressed with just how easy the install was for this carseat. We installed the seat in the rear-facing setting based on our child's age and weight (3mo/12 pounds). We selected the "latch" option when installing in the backseat of our SUV. Having the item as one piece made it quite simple and was properly installed with level lines in a matter of minutes. Upon using this seat for a couple of weeks following receipt, the biggest areas we were impressed with were the following: 1) Versatility: Being a first time parent, it was daunting to think about how many items you need to care for your child. I absolutely love that this car seat can be used from newborn all the way up to 100 pounds. If only we'd had this when we left the hospital! :) The multiple inserts and neck supports make it so easy for us to use this from now until our daughter no longer requires a car seat. This was a huge relief in my mind, and makes a lot of financial sense for my family. Many friends of ours were not even aware seats like this existed when I discussed the features with them. They were under the impression an infant, toddler and booster seats all needed to be purchased separately as their child grows. Not with the Pria! 2) Advanced Features: One of the things I feared when putting my child in this seat over the infant carrier was that it was not as much of a relaxed incline for napping. However, I loved seeing the recline option for our little one. Whether it was a quick trip home from the grocery store where she fell asleep, or a recent road trip to the mountains, it was amazing to be able to get more nap time out of her by reclining the seat slightly and still knowing she is safe

Awesome features
August 20, 2019
Wow this is an amazing car seat! It has so many features that my infant car seat didn't have so I'm blown away by all the features. The assist EZ out harness makes putting the baby in so much easier and I don't have to poke around looking for the straps stuck under the baby. The comfort level is also amazing; there is plenty of soft padding including the infant pillow and the region where the belt buckle is also padded to provide extra comfort. The shoulder harness also has pads so the belt doesn't dig into the baby. One of the best parts of the car seat is the magnetic chest lock. It took me a couple tries but it can actually be unclamped with one hand which is awesome when you have the baby in the other hand. The car seat material is awesome and can be removed for easy washing. The only thing I would change is making the car seat slimmer in general for people who have compact cars. I own a smaller 4-door car so this car seat works fine when it's forward facing but a little bit challenging to put the baby in when used rear facing. Other than that, this is a great car seat and very comfortable. I received this Car Seat from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

Parent-testing the Pria Max 3-in-1 -- Loved it!
August 20, 2019
We're using the new Pria Max 3-in-1 thanks to the weespring parent panel (provided to us for free)! Things we love: This thing is SO COMFY. I want one for myself. It's padded, all the lining is removable and washable, and it came right on time after Babu threw up on his infant carseat (which does NOT have a removable/washable cover). The headrest and straps are easy to adjust and clasp. He also seems happier being up a little higher where he can see out of the windows better. Things that could be better: The seatbelt attachment does not have a clamp like our infant carseat did, which gave us a little more peace of mind. Unfortunately, our car doesn't have a LATCH system in the middle seat, and carseats don't fit well anywhere else in the backseat. Also, it would be nice if the included pillows had velcro to keep them in place. I could get velcro myself and install it, but I guarantee you that I will forget I've considered it two minutes from now. All in all, we like this carseat! Our kid is safe, he feels snug and happy, and he naps when we drive. That's what we want out of a carseat, especially one that lasts until he's 100lbs!

Great comfy, easy-to-clean car seat that grows with your kid
August 20, 2019
Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Infant Car Seat. There are so many positives about this seat, but by far the biggest selling point is the fact that it grows with your child. Car seats are pricey no matter what age they accommodate, and it's crazy from both a cost and storage perspective that until now, I've had to buy one for each stage of development (infant, toddler, booster). Friends & I used to daydream about a truly convertible / all-age car seat (being totally serious about this), and I'm so glad it's finally on the market! The second-biggest selling point is that this one has a cover that can go in the washing machine -- no small feat for a car seat based on the others I've owned and spent hours stain treating and scrubbing and even once sending to a professional cleaner. Safety features seem great, it's about as easy/difficult to install as the others on the market. Kiddo seems comfortable. The only drawback to me is how heavy it is, but again, that's about on par with the other car seats I've owned or tried out over the years -- a pain for city dwellers who need to bring it on cab rides, etc., but a non-issue for suburban / rural parents who can leave it installed in their car.

Great Car Seat!
August 20, 2019
We had the opportunity to receive this car seat as part of the wee spring parent panel. This car seat is great! It was so easy to install, you had options to either use the seat belt or anchors when installing. The fabric was soft and machine washable. We washed it once and there was no fading still looked bran new. The EZ latch was super easy to use, definitely a thumb saver. I couldn't get enough of the removable cup holders and they were dish washer safe! My only thing about this car seat is it is a little bulky. So any smaller vehicles would have a space issue if they have more then one child. My mid size suv, along with my other child's booster made it a tight squeeze. We then put it in our full size truck and had plenty of space. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family!

Thoughtful features!
August 20, 2019
I was given this convertible car seat to try as part of the weeSpring parent panel. My 10 month old is a little chub and I was excited to get her out of her infant car seat. I loved that it came fully assembled right out of the box. I sat it up on the floor to get a good fit for my daughter before installing. The fabric is wonderful quality and feels super luxurious. I didn't need the bottom or back cushion for my daughter, so I removed those. They came right off easily. I am happy it has a cup holder on each side, and the fact that they are removable and machine washable is even better. The little holders for the chest straps are super handy. They are a little tight at first, so you need to use two hands to get the straps tucked away with them, but maybe after more use they will loosen a but and it will be a one hand process. My favorite feature is the magnetic one hand chest buckle. This is a serious game changer!! After using this smooth buckle, I decided to ditch our other convertible seat, which also happens to be the same brand but an older model, and buy a second one! I drive a compact electric car, and the installed easily with the latch system. It was fully reclined for rear facing mode, and still left enough room for the front seat passenger to ride comfortably. This is also huge for me because most rear facing seats are way too big. I feel confident that this seat will keep my little one safe for years. The padded head rest is cozy and not too close to her head. She doesn't seem to mind it, and hopefully as she gets older she will find it comfy to doze off in. It is easy to adjust the headrest with one hand too. I haven't had to remove the fabric to wash it yet, since it repels liquid so well! Some formula spilled on it and it actually repelled it! I am lucky to have this wonderful seat!

Neat features. Good buy.
August 20, 2019
This is a super luxurious car seat. We have other adjustable 3-1ins from another well known brand and this is just so nice. Pros: COMFORT: The seat is very plush. We tried this with our 2 year old and our 3 month old. Both seemed comfortable and we were easily able to adjust the headrest to make sure they fit appropriately in the seat. CLEANING: The cover is WASHABLE. It's awesome that that it can go through the dryer, which is unheard of for car seat covers. It was very easy to get the cover off and on if you follow instructions. STRAPS AND CLIP: The straps are so amazing and simple to adjust. An added bonus is that the clips retract on the side of the seat to hold the straps when the child isn't in the seat are perfectly placed to help prevent twisting. The magnetic clasp is pretty neat and doesn't seem at risk of the child unbuckling which was what I was concerned with about that feature. WEIGHT LIMITS: The rear-facing weight/height limit (40 lbs/40"), but the forward-facing limit of 85 pounds is better than many other combo seats. INSTALLATION: The latch connectors were easy to use. I had some difficulty tightening so if this will be moved between cars, it may not be for you. Con: SIZE: This is a large car seat. I wouldn't recommend this for rear-facing in a small car/suv. We had to move up the front seat in order to set the car seat comfortable in our mid-size SUV while rear-facing. If your child is short, it may be fine. Overall a nice buy. Thank you to weeSpring Parent Panel for sending me this seat to try and review.

Good car seat - could use a few improvements
August 20, 2019
First off, I will start by saying this is the third brand of car seat that we have used between two kids. Some of the features, I thought were awesome. Some were just so so. Not necessarily bad, but I would expect more from a high end car seat. One of the things that I loved about the Pria Max Convertible car seat was the fabric. It was very nice and plush and super comfortable looking for our baby. I have not yet removed the fabric to wash it, but I do think it will be pretty simple! The color is great and will definitely not show dirt easily down the road, either. I loved the flip away buckles. It was so nice not having to dig the straps out from underneath the baby each and every time you put them in the car seat. That was by far, my favorite feature! I also really loved the magnetic chest clip. It's a bit bulky, but it's a cool new feature that I enjoyed as I could unbuckle it with one hand if needed. The car seat was simple to install, but have never found any install to be particularly tricky. One of the things that I thought they could have done to make the car seat a bit more luxurious is to have a leveler. This particular car seat has a sticker with a line on it so that you can make sure it's level. The other car seats that we have used have had the ball leveler or liquid leveler installed on the car seat. I also would have preferred at least a few more reclining positions. I didn't think that in any of three that were provided that my little was quite as reclined as I would have liked. The strap is also super long, so our guy always had it in his mouth chewing on it! None of these were deal breakers, just little things that would have made a bit more difference! For such a high end car seat, I would have thought these few things would have been perfected. Thank you to WeeSpring Parent Panel for sending me this car seat to try out and review!
