Product Description
Chicco KeyFit Infant Car Seat and Base It's very rare to find an infant car seat and base which work together so greatly to make the entire installation process easier. The KeyFit Car Seat and Base from Chicco works so well together that it is very different than other car seats. Other car seats don't install half as easily as the Chicco. The KeyFit is a baby car seat which is also affordably priced to not bust wallets. The KeyFit can fit a range of child form 4-30 lbs, which is different t

 Love it! March 11, 2010
D. Glasser (Boston, MA)
I could not be happier with this car seat. Installation was simple, even into a car that did not have LATCH brackets. My son appears quite comfortable in the seat. Restraints are snug, easy to adjust, and simple to use even with a squirming baby. Getting the carrier in and out of the base is also a snap.
The product feels solidly constructed. This was one of my reasons for purchasing this car seat over competitors. Some others just felt rather flimsy or poorly made. You pay a slight premium for this one, but it's worth it.
Easy to use March 11, 2010
Fannie E. (Concord, NC)
I really love this car seat. Its so easy to install, and its really easy to get my son in and out. I've tried a few other car seats, and this is by far the easiest. The Graco Snugride seemed so flimsy to me and it was harder to get the belts adjusted properly. We have 3 of the bases in our 2 cars and in grandmas car. The seat is a little heavy, and I can see myself not being able to carry him in it for too much longer (he is 13 pounds). I also like that the seat has a head rest that is separate from the infant insert.
Versatile, High Quality Seat February 21, 2010
C. Hall (Seattle, WA)
My husband and I love this car seat. One of the reasons we chose it is the fact that it does not require the base for installation. That way, we keep the base in my car, and my husband can use the seat in his car without the hassle of moving the base. It also makes traveling in a friend's car with the baby a much more spontaneous thing.
Our son is a long and skinny baby, and fits in the seat very well.
My only two gripe points are
a: As other posters have noted, it does make him sweaty.
b: it's very annoying that you have to push both orange releases at the same time to move the carrying handle. When the seat is in position in the middle of the back seat it takes some tricky contortions to get to the far side release button.
Aside from these two small issues I feel like the quality of materials and construction is very high and would not hesitate to purchase the seat again.
On a side note: We also use a BOB revolution stroller, and though not listed as a 'compatible' car seat with the infant car seat adapter, it fits just fine with the removal of a spanner bar (this is the same bar that has to be removed to turn the seat adapter into the snack tray feature, so it's designed to be removed anyway.) There is a more in depth tutorial on how to remove this bar in one of the BOB Revolution stroller reviews. It fits perfectly and feels plenty secure to me - I just suspect that Chicco didn't want to pay the licensing fee to BOB to be a 'compatible carrier' - but of course, you are your own parent and use your best judgment as to this modification's safety.
Love it!!! February 19, 2010

I can not say enough wonderful things about the Chicco Keyfit 30. This is my 3rd baby and my 1st Chicco. I wish I would have had one with my other 2 babies. The extra cushion insert (which is also removable) provides the comfort and extra protection for newborns. The way it fits in the base is so seamless and easy,I never knew how easy it could truly be. My 1st infant car seat would always get stuck and I would have to force it in and jerk it out. It is well worth the money and Amazon makes it so affordable. Much more savings than the store. Another feature I like is that it fits perfectly in the Jeep Liberty Unlimited single jogging stroller perfectly. We will get alot of use out this car seat and I am so glad I found it on Amazon. I couldn't find the color I wanted at the store and Amazon had many to choose from!
Note: I ordered it on Sunday and received it on Tuesday. I was extremely pleased and impressed with the swiftness in which I received it.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this carseat!!!!!! February 19, 2010
L. Mastrigt (Gainesville, VA)
BEST carseat out there! The safety ratings are great. My son loves this carseat, falls asleep in it easily and looks very comfy. The first few weeks we had him home he would not sleep unless we held him, or snuggled into this seat. It is super easy to install, get him in and out and adjust the harnass. I also love the color options. I am recommending this seat to everyone!!!!
