Pria™ Max All-in-One Convertible Car Seat in Plum

This is a very nice looking car seat that blends in with my vehicle really well, but most importantly, I love that toxic fire-retardant chemicals are NOT use on the fabric and that the padding feels very soft and secure for my baby (I did not notice any chemical smells that some reviewers mention). The harness system is also AWESOME - it truly makes it so easy to get in and out with the magnetic clip and flip away buckle. I made the mistake of going cheap with my infant carrier and the buckle on that car seat is such a pain to use in comparison to this one; those extra seconds make such a difference in cold winter temperatures or with fussy babies. I ended up getting two - one for each vehicle. Highly recommend!

Let me first say that I wanted to be a Maxi-Cosi fan but this is my first and last Maxi-Cosi car seat purchase. The seat comes with zero packing protection new in box- no bags, paper, or foam, just a box with a loose users manual. OK environmentally friendly perhaps but the product suffers in transit as a result. As others reviewers have mentioned, Pulled threads randomly all over the fabric and the stench of what I can only imagine is something akin to formaldehyde are the first impressions you'll be greeted with. Then it's time for the install...For almost an hour and a half my wife and I struggled to install this seat and still could not get it to securely tighten to the car without sloppy side to side movement. Even the maxi-cosi website tutorials were insufficient in addressing proper installation. There's no way I could put my child in this seat and feel remotely like it's offering adequate protection. I'm astonished this seat hasn't been recalled and pulled from store shelves as its build quality is cheap and all methods of securing the seat in the car leave way too much play for the seat to move around during a potential car accident. I've purchased 3 Chicco car seats prior to this one, all with incredibly thoughtful and reliable safety features that took less then 10 minutes to install and will be returning this seat to purchase another Chicco. For the safety of your children, please don't buy this seat.

I'm not sure what kind of chemical mixture they used in manufacturing this but it's awful. I am retuning the car seat. I don't want my baby inhaling those fumes. Even after washing multiple times and airing out on my porch, the stink of chemicals remains strong.

I'm so impressed with the customer service! We loved the pria all in one that we bought for our daughter about a year and a half ago, but we noticed it was starting to wear after one 1-2 washes, so I messaged them and got replacement interior fabric/padding delivered to my front door within TWO days! Wow! Made us go out and buy the Max version for my son! Can't beat the customer service!

I've had this car seat since my son was about 8 months and he is now 4 and a half. It has been through so many stains, accidents, and even my 55lb bulldog sitting on it. The seat still looks brand new and there are no rips! I will be passing this seat down to my second child when he is big enough.

We got this one in plum color. It smells terrible like the chemical smell. I’m not sure if the chemical smell comes from dyeing (because we got one in the normal grey color a couple of years ago and that one doesn’t have any smell issues). At first I thought the smell would go away after a day or two. But it didn’t air out after 3 weeks or so. So I exchanged the original one and got another one. It still has the same smell. I am going to return this product.

I love this car seat and so does my baby. It fits her comfortably. It’s what I’ve been looking for. I definitely recommend!

I was in love with the infant car seat and then thought of going for the same brand thinking it will be same as the infant seat . But I am wrong it's very bulky and take so much space and heavy . Material is very good as always. But soon after my first wash it started to rip open from the stitches. And very little padding on the bottom , I don't know what to do . We spent so much thinking this will be great purchase, but no . Such a waste .
