Combi Shuttle Infant Car Seat

I really wanted a combi stroller for my 4th baby and I knew that only combi car seats fit into the combi stroller. I read many of the reviews on this car seat (more of them are in the apricot color) and decided to give it a try. While I am happy with the stroller, this car seat has been a pain in my side since day one. I hate it EVERY time I go to unlatch it from the base and it won't come out. I have to wiggle it from side to side (which often wakes sleeping baby up) and push down while I pull really hard for it come out.

I tried the WD40 and it didn't help at all. I kept thinking that once my baby got a bit heavier I wouldn't have the problem anymore, but he is now 6 months and 15 pounds and it still sticks EVERY time. Ugh!

I bought this car seat with my second child because someone had bought us the combi double stroller . This was the biggest mistake ever . the car seat is so hard to get out of the car . You have to wrestle the thing out of the car. Its heaverier then most car seats .It dosent fit in the shopping cart at the stores the right way and To top of this piece of crap car seat it dosent seem to lock in the double stroller the right way . I wouldnt recommend this to anyone . Huge dissapointmenr . DO NOT BUY THIS !!

We purchased this car seat after looking around for a while... with that being said, I should have listened to the other reviews. Here's what I have found out:

Pros:
*I love the look of this car seat; we get compliments on it all the time.
*The carrying handle is extra tall so it is easier to carry the baby around and we bought a small mobile that hangs from it without hitting our son in the face.
*The price was fair.

Cons:
*The sun shade does not stay up. It is very flimsy.
*There isn't any head support for a small infant, so we purchased one to sit in the car seat so our son's head didn't move around so much.
* While the strap length does adjust, there aren't slots in the back of the seat that allow you to adjust the straps that way too.
*It is VERY hard to get the seat to unlatch from the base. After months of having my husband do it, I can finally do it on my own.

While I don't mind this car seat, I...Read more
