Summary: Great carseat 2008-07-23
Comment: This is a great carseat - we love it. Easy to install, easy to snap in and out of the base, easy to strap the baby in, easy to clean, nice neutral colors. Doesn't really fit in the shopping cart, but I don't feel like the ones that do are safe there anyway.
One thing I don't see a use for, now that we have it, is the 30lb weight limit. We bought this carseat for our 2nd child (had a convertible for our 1st - no infant seat like this) and our 1st child, who is nearly 2 1/2 isn't 30 lbs yets and there's no way she'd still fit in this seat. I guess maybe if you've got a good robust baby it might come in handy, but otherwise...
Good value for a well-made product!

Summary: Excellent pick for the price 2008-03-26
Comment: This was rated the safest seat by Consumer Report last year. It is not the cheapest, but far from the most expensive too. The value for the looks and safety is probably more than fair.
PLUSES are that it snaps in and out of the car and stroller very easy. It is one of the safest for the baby and it is comfortable from what we can tell
MINUSES are that it will not fit the back of shopping carts like you will see Graco's and some of the others.

Summary: Absolutely the best infant seat, period! 2008-01-08
Comment: I had the original KeyFit infant seat for my daughter and we were just in a crash 4 days ago. It was 40mph head on crash and my airbag deployed. My baby was perfectly safe in her KeyFit and I am so thankful to Chicco for making a superb car seat. I replaced it with the new KeyFit 30 and couldn't be more thrilled. If there is one good thing that came out of the accident, it's that I got the new KeyFit30. All the great features of the original and now rated to 30 lbs! After being in the accident, I definitely want to keep my daughter rear-facing as long as possible.
Chicco also addressed what was the only complaint I had on the original seat - the canopy didn't stay open and wasn't big enough. Now it stays open like it should and they added the extra visor part. Perfect!
The only downside to the new KeyFit 30 is the color choices - I liked my grey and green original colors better, but you can't complain when everything else about this seat is perfect. The fabric is super easy to keep clean and I have not had a problem with my baby sweating in it like some other reviews have stated (and we do get hot summers, but I do also have A/C in my car). The ease of installing the seat and of getting baby in and out is great. I will say that in some cars the LATCH attachment isn't the best fit, and it's better just to install the base with the seatbelt (the case w/my Toyota Matrix).
Really there are no faults with this seat and I am so thrilled that it now can hold my daughter until 30 lbs (which will be quite a while as she is on the small side)!
Absolutely my highest recommendation on this car seat!

Summary: Great, easy to install, perfect fit for baby 2008-01-03
Comment: My son loves this car seat. The newborn padding provides a comforting space for him to enjoy the ride. I was skeptical about the denim color, but it looks better in person. We easily installed this in our car. Buy an extra base if you plan to use it in multiple vehicles.

Summary: A breeze to install, very sturdy and comfortable 2007-10-04
Comment: We were in a car accident and had to replace our Graco SafeSeat. We decided to go with this seat because of the promised ease of installation. Our SafeSeat took quite a while to install and never really seemed secure. This seat was so easy! I installed it in less than five minutes and it is very secure. You just snap the LATCH connecters (which are cleverly designed and easy to use) onto the hooks in your car and then pull a single strap coming out of the middle of the base.
The seat itself seems sturdy and comfortable. My 15 month-old has been asleep in it for over an hour this morning. She hadn't slept that long in her Graco seat since she was around 6 months old.
We love this seat!
