Great car seat
March 8, 2016
Easy to install. Very comfortable. Our one year old grandson loves his new seat. I did have a little trouble with the recline but kind of a minor problem. Very solid and well made. I feel like our little guy is very safe in his new big boy car seat. He's still back facing now but it looks like he can be in this seat until he's in middle school

Just amazing! I don't know how else to explain it. My 13 month old loves it and seems to be very comfortable in her new car seat. Love that it sits her up more and most importantly that the neck support adjust to always have her in The safest position. Also looks very classy (we have the atmosphere)
Pros
  • Safe
  • Comfortable
  • Looks good
  • Adjustable
  • Rear facing to 45lbs
  • Forward facing to 100+lbs
Best Uses
  • Childs safety and comfort
Cons
  • Expensive but worth it

January 6, 2016
my baby is loving this car seat. he looks much much much more comfortable in this car seat, and also the car seat looks so luxurious!!also install was super easy and super fast!.the best thing about this car seat is the little rubber band on the sides that holds the belt when baby is not in the car seat. that helps so much when putting the baby in to the car seat.i wish i can fit into that car seat, it looks like a my baby's personal sofa in the car.love love love it!!

Awesome convertible seat
December 7, 2015
I purchased a Britax convertible when my oldest (who is now 10) which I loved. When I became pregnant with #2 9 years later I thought I would buy Britax again but was I wrong. Once I found out that Peg Perego made a convertible seat, I was all over it. It was easy to install. My petite 17 lb 1 year old loves it. Easy to get her in and out and tightens completely. The 5 point harness doesn't cut across her thighs, as did when I tried the Britax. So happy with our purchase.

We love this seat. It was easy to install, great safety ratings. I did a ton of research and this was the best seat for us. It fits nicely behind front seat in rear facing. Our son seems to love it to.

Very nice car seat. Installs easily. Not too deep, takes up the same amount of space as my son's infant car seat when fully reclined. He seems comfortable. Easy to adjust height with straps that don't require re-threading. Plus, it matches my leather seats!
Pros
  • Takes up same amount of space as infant car seat
  • Easily adjustable height and straps
  • Installs easily

Just switched my 10 month old to this seat from her infant one and I love it. So easy to install, nice fabric, sleek looking, easy no rethread harness adjustment and obviously most important it gets great safety reviews. Really happy with our choice.

One of my favorite seats
September 6, 2015
I love how plush and comfortable the seat is! As a Child Passenger Safety Technician, I know all seats on the market are safe if used properly and I feel there are so many features about this seat that make it easier to use to help parents use them properly! The harness is smooth as butter and the headrest raises so easily so I can keep the straps positioned at the appropriate height for my son. I do wish the rear facing belt path was a little wider so it would be easier to get the seat belt through. It is my son's favorite seat. He is tall and just outgrew it rear facing recently a little past age 3 (by seated height) so he is now forward facing in it. The forward facing seatbelt install is quite easy and the lower anchors install is quite easy in either direction. The color is also amazing in person.
Pros
  • Smooth harness tightening, compact, beautiful color, super plush and comfortable, quality fabrics that stand up to toddler feet.
Cons
  • Narrow belt path for rear facing seat belt installation but it doesn't complicate it TOO much or anything.

Great car seat
August 14, 2015
Fantastic car seat. The material is of good quality, and it's comfortable for my daughter, plenty of room for her. Although she's only 5 months, her Doona car seat/stroller was beginning to look a bit snug with her in it. It would be nice if the recline went back a bit more, but other than that, it's a wonderful product.
Pros
  • Practical material, doesn't get hot, and has plenty of room to grow.
Cons
  • Takes up quite of bit of space in my mercedes, and doesn't recline very far back.

Best Convertible Carseat
July 16, 2015
This is the second Peg Perego convertible we have purchased. It is by far my favorite extended rear-facing convertible and also fits nicely behind the passenger seat in a RX350. The first one we bought in 2013 and it has held up great. It is easy to adjust, our child is comfortable and higher up so they can look out the window. It isn't difficult getting our baby in and out of. It is also one of the easiest carseats I've installed.

We love our new peg perego and so does our one year old. She loves that she can see out and there is much less fussing. The strap you pull to tighten it is slightly more difficult than her infant car seat, but nothing that we're worried about. I love the fabric, and while she still sweats in it, it's much less than her infant car seat.

Best Convertible Car Seat
April 15, 2015
I waited months to buy a convertible car seat and finally we did it after a visit at BuyBuyBaby. I was deciding among Peg Perego, Chicco, Diono, and Recaro because I wanted extended rare facing time for my 1 year old. I've been reading all the reviews and ratings online to narrow down to these brands, but when I saw the real products in store, I know Peg Perego was the clear winner. It doesn't raise high as Recaro, not as heavy and less flexible as Diono, and uses better materials than Chicco. It gives the recline I needed for my son to nap in it; it's not too bulky in the car, and it's very well made all around. I bought it on Albee Baby because it had more choices for the style than the store and I could use a coupon. My son loves his new seat and we are very happy with it too.

February 10, 2015
I did a lot of research and, taking everything into consideration, this is the car seat I choose. Well worth the money. No recalls on this seat and all parts and components made in Italy. It is heavy, but perfect if you are keeping it in one car. Very easy to fit into the car and adjust.

Quality Made in Italy
February 5, 2015
You get what you pay for. This is a high-end, high quality car seat made in Italy. It's easy to get in and out of your car regardless of whether you're using the latch system or seat belt. The leather wipes clean easily. The base does not damage your car's interior. It's excellent forward facing, but does require some depth when rear-facing. On par with Britax convertible car seats.
Pros
  • Quality.
Cons
  • Buy it on sale whenever possible.

We have both the Maxi-Cosi Pria and the Graco MyRide 65. My 13 month old son LOVES the Peg Perego. It was super easy to install and the harness is WAY easier to buckle than others we have. The material is plush. Totally worth the money!

I have owned several car seats in my time but this one takes the cake! It has every feature that I wanted in a seat, rebound management, no re-thread harness and stylish and great extended rear facing capabilities! I have found it easy to install with both LATCH and seat belt as well as easy to use. My children also seem to find it comfortable.
Best Uses

Awesome Convertible Car SEat
December 29, 2014
After buying this car seat, I absolutely love it! Awesome quality and built very well. I even bought another one for my 2nd car after using it for a few months. I compared it with the maxi cosi that my sister used for her son, but I like the peg perego better.
Pros
  • Good quality! Very comfortable! I like the extra infant cushion to fit smaller babies which I used and took it out when she got taller. Harness strap holder is an awesome feature, so you don't have to pull the straps from under the baby after you put them on the seat.
Cons
  • I wish it had a built in cup holder and it reclined just a bit more.

I love this car seat! It is very well made. My son is 13 months and loves riding in it! I have an Audi Q5 and it fits great, even being installed rear facing, the passenger seat does not have to be way forward like some of the other car seats i read reviews about. My only complaint is that the buckle in the harness sometimes gets twisted around and it is very hard to flip back.

July 5, 2014
We did so much research before buying a car seat and this was the one. It fits in our car great and our little one just loves it. No more screaming when going in the car. The best feature compared to others is that the strap is easy to tighten while rear facing. Other car seats have the strap right where the car seat meets the seat so you can not ever get it tight. Very happy with everything about it.

Awesome limits for extended rear facing. But hands down this is the fastest and easiest daily in/out seat there is. No hassle, no tangles, it's fantastic. Not to mention how compact it is!! I have used several garcos and britax seats. This exceeds them by a mile. Worth every penny. I have 2 now after trying other cheaper seats with no satisfaction.

May 5, 2014
We have the Peg Perego infant seat SIP 30/30 and love the brand. Decided this would be our convertible seat after reading countless positive reviews on the web about the 5/70. So glad we made this choice! It is a beautiful seat that matches my car I interior, baby is very comfortable, the seat allows for plenty of leg room for the passenger in the front seat of my BMW X3, and I found installation to be easy. Definitely spring for the leatherette if it is in your budget, cleaning it is a breeze!

Absolute best convertible car seat
April 15, 2014
This is the absolute best convertible car seat and here are the reasons why:1. My son is very secure and safe in it, the seat does not move around at all and he is completely secure when fastened in2. He falls asleep in it everytime and never once cried while being in it which is HUGE since that's all he did in the infant carrier. 3. Not big and bulky, but made of quality and is very sturdyMADE IN ITALY not CHINA!!4. Fabric is quality and thickly cushioned = VERY comfortable5. Stylish and affordable, yes more expensive then some but very much worth it6. SIP, protects he but does not block his view to the outside world.7. Easy to clean! just wipeOverall my baby is Happy, safe and comfortable in this car seat and you will not be dissapointed.

Baby loves it...but...
March 18, 2014
We purchased the convertible just last week and our lil guy (8 months old) loves it. There's so much room for him to grow in it. Very chic and well made. We live in Tampa, Florida and it can get very hot but so far the fabric doesnt cause him to sweat like our other car seat (Britax marathon). Its not as bulky as the other carseats out there but we still had to move the passenger seat (we have a Volvo XC90) forward to make room for it (rear-facing). The carseat has a 7 yr expiration date; however, I noticed that when Albee sent our carseat it was manfactured in July 2013 (already 8 months old). So make sure you get the most recent carseat especially since you're paying so much. But other than that we are very happy with the carseat.

February 24, 2014
I was extremely impressed with this car seat. When it arrived there was no odor to it. Other car seats like from China have a nasty smell to them. My grandson is 3 months old and he fit into this car seat perfectly. I was so impressed I bought one for my husbands car. This car seat is very well made and easily adjusted. I would recommend this car seat and the infant one from this company too.
Pros
  • No odor, simple to use

July 13, 2013
I purchased the Peg for my grandson at age 6 months. He is now one and this seat is so comfortable and he loves it! Small footprint allows it to fit in my Mercedes'Benz C class and in my grandaughters Honda Civic. We had a Chicco infant seat and so we looked at their convertible but the rubber shoulder pads areso hot and the fabric is not as breathable as the Peg. Looks are not as important as safety but this seat offers it all!! Not the easiet seat to install but that is so minorcompared to all the benefits.
Pros
  • Everything!
Best Uses
  • Any vehicle but especially well fitting for smaller cars and lets the baby see out without blocking the drivers view.

April 20, 2013
This is a great transition carseat. I looked at some of the other popular and highly rated brands/models but really liked the Peg. We had the infant seat and were happy with that one too. The Peg is highly rated and looks much better when you see it next to some of the others. The plastic looks really cheap on the others and just really bulky. The Peg has a small footprint and fits nicely in a small car. I like the recline while rear-facing and the tall adjustable headrest. I really love the holdback restraints for the straps. Genius! The seat sits up high and my baby can look out to see. Very happy with it and would recommend to others!
Pros
  • The way it looks, quality, features, brand reputation.

April 19, 2013
I love this car seat. We recently upgraded from the 30-30 and were so happy with that one that we decided to stick with the same company. The seat is heavy duty and sturdy without being bulky, and my son fits very comfortably in it. He's a tall and slender kid but the seat seems like it would be comfy for chubby little ones too! It is a bit pricey compared to other seats on the market, but you can't put a price on peace of mind when it comes to safety.
Pros
  • Very well-made and not at all an eyesore.

March 13, 2013
My son started using this car seat at 8 months and he loves it! It's been almost 2 months that we have been using it now and I find it easy to get him in and out of the seat. He sleeps in the seat just fine, but it sits him upright enough that he can see out of the windows which he loves. The leather trim is very nice and easy to clean as well. This car seat just has a very clean nice look to it which I love. It is also fairly easy to install in the rear facing position and doesn't take up too much room. The person sitting in front of the car seat doesn't even have to move the seat up at all in order to fit which is great!
Pros
  • Compact fit
  • Easy to clean

took a while for item to ship from backorder, but once received the installation was pretty easy. feel really secure putting our baby in this seat. some of the adjustments aren't very self-explanatory, but a quick skim through the (long) user guide solved those issues. probably a good idea to give the manual a thorough reading early on anyhow!

December 23, 2012
I'm so happy with this purchase. My son loves sitting in it and is very comfortable on long car journeys. It's very stylish and is easy to clean.I originally wanted the all-black model but as it was sold out I settled with the cream/black Paloma color way. I'm VERY happy with this color way and now prefer it over my ordinal choice. The Italian designs shines through and I think the higher purchase price is definitely worth it. My son can stay rear facing longer than in other models and is safe and secure in this seat.
Pros
  • Safety and style
Cons
  • Price may be the only con but you get what you pay for
