Combi Shuttle 33 Infant Car Seat, Indigo

Comment: I bought this for our son because I liked that it could be a very light travel system when combined with the combi flash stroller. However it will only fit into some combi strollers and none other....something to consider because I also have a double stroller and a jogger I use often. My son cried every time I put him in the car seat...it just seemed uncomfortable for him...later I took a closer look and the car seat is not very padded so the seat is hard. Especially in the head part where I noticed my baby was getting a bald spot...we had to stuff a blanket under neath and everything seems to be working ok. I'm just going to have to stick it out until he outgrows it since I paid so much for the thing and no one will want to buy it since the airlines broke the sun visor part.

Comment: Our baby hasn't arrived yet, so I will update this review when we can actually put this seat to use, but so far, we love it!

I spent a great deal of time researching car seats, as safety, comfort, style, and size were all HUGE issues with us. Finally settled on the Combi Shuttle due to it's safety ratings and overall features. Then, they came out with the Shuttle 33, which made our decision even tougher. We really wanted to be able to use the infant seat for the full first year of our babes life, so the fact that we can go up to 33 inches and 33 pounds was an awesome feature. We figured that the extra pound of car seat weight was worthwhile.

Some have said they don't like the handle always having to be up while in the car, but I am on the other end. Putting the handle down just extends the length of the seat, pushing the front car seats even further forward. I do love that you can use the handle to prop the seat up for the baby to sit or nap in.

The buckle is a little tough, as are all puzzle lock buckles, but safety first! All the straps are super easy to adjust and we love the fabric. It is soft, easily removed and super washable.
