Chicco® KeyFit® 35 Zip ClearTex™ Infant Car Seat in Obsidian

Great car seat! Baby is 7 weeks old and we just took the newborn insert out. It’s very easy to adjust harness as he grows. Baby seems comfortable in the seat. I’ve been carrying the car seat with baby in it for doctors appointments and it’s not too heavy.

This car seat is very easy to use and good quality. You hear nightmares about how difficult it can be to install the car seat base, but it was really very straightforward. Adjusting the straps is not intuitive, but the instructions are very clear on how to do it. Baby sits in there nice and snug, and she seems to like being in there because she does not cry! My only complaint is that you need two hands to move the handlebar, so you have to adjust the handlebar before putting the car seat into the car.

Perfect car seat, you can feel the quality that is very good and love the color

I kick myself every time I buckle my two month old into this car seat. Every time I put him in, I think about driving to the store to purchase a different car seat. The straps on the highs crease (Chicco says this is considered safe). The elastics that hook on to the canopy pop off constantly. The canopy doesn’t fit well under the carrying handle and the canopy doesn’t maintain its shape and is often lopsided. For $300 I expect more quality from a car seat. I do like the hidden screen.

From the ease of install to the safety and comfort of my little one, I couldn’t be happier with this infant car seat! The latches on the base click right into the latches of my car (Jeep) and the pull strap easily tightens the base. Labels on the base give helpful hints to install. With a click and check of the car seat, it’s secure in the base! The fabric of the seat is soft, yet durable making it easy to clean (user guide provides a full breakdown for cleaning). It was hard to choose between color options because I like them all:) The infant insert is even softer for the baby’s delicate skin. I LOVE the breathable canopy that is found zipped inside of the main canopy. Wonderful product and highly recommend!

I’m so pleased with this car seat. It’s solid and fits nicely in both the stroller and in the seat in the car. I used to be a car seat tech a few years back and found this seat very easy to install.

The quality and attention to detail and safety are evident as soon as I started to unpack the car seat. We immediately noticed that not only did it meet and exceed our expectations in the areas of safety but in attention to comfort for our little one. The secure base with the extra stability bar gives a firm secure fit. Installation was easy and I am confident in our installation with the easy to view the levels. The seat itself has many Key features that stood out to me. The cushion in the seat seems to go above and beyond what’s regularly in place for infants.. The zip off covers for easy wash and the zip down shield. The ability to adjust the belt with just the push of a button is so convenient. I felt the comfort and integrity of the seat exceeded our expectations. We would definitely highly recommend it.

Being a long time Chicco car seat user, we got this seat for some close friends and their new baby. I'd never use another brand and wanted to spread the love. I spoke with my friend after they installed and use the seat and like all other Chicco products this car seat was easy to install, easy to clean, and was very comfortable for their daughter. They love the added canopy with the mesh panel, Chicco literally thinks of everything.
