Summary: Really good combo 2008-10-12
Comment: I have not had any problems with this product. I have loaded the stroller in my car a lot. I go everywhere with this stroller. The carseat is great too and I love the carseat base. This is such a great product because you don't have to fumble with the carseat every time you go somewhere, just snap it in place and go.

Summary: great and safe seat! 2008-07-24
Comment: I bought this system for my son and absolutely love it. We took it to a safety technician to install the seat and she had no problems with us using this seat whatsoever. It is one of the safest seats on the market. I love how easy it is to use - the button on the front of the seat lets you easily tighten and loosen the seatbelt harness, it easily snaps into the base and removes easily by lifting on the handle on the back of the carseat. The stroller is also great and easy to use.

Summary: contact dermatitis 2008-06-11
Comment: The Chicco Keyfit 30 is easy to use, looks great and it has a great safety rating. However, after a couple of months in it, my infant broke out into huge oozing painful sores wherever his skin touched the carseat. The entire back of his head turned into one big scab. Apparently, contact dermatitis to the flame-resistant chemicals they use in some car seats is a growing problem.
As soon as I put a cover in the car seat, my baby's horrible rash cleared up immediately.
When I contacted the company to let them know, they got back to me (a week later) and offered me a new set of soft goods -- the exact same thing that hurt my baby the first time. Not impressed.

Summary: Deemed UNSAFE by certified seat installer!!! 2008-03-25
Comment: I purchased this seat on the recommendation of Consumer Reports, expecting the safest seat on the market. In order to make certain it was installed perfectly, I visited a local California police department and had a trained and certified car seat inspector install it.
Where the LATCH system attaches (or along the belt path if not using LATCH) the seat is very secure. Won't budge an inch. HOWEVER, the back of the seat and base remain completely untethered and will lift up at least seven inches off the seat. My installer said this is incredibly unsafe in the event of being rear ended at moderate to high speeds.
I spoke with Chicco's car seat safety person who said it isn't a concern because most accidents are head on collisions. She also mentioned that in the past month they have received at least eight other complaints from the California Highway Patrol about this issue.
I've been looking into this issue extensively and have learned that all infant seats with bases are designed this way and have the same problem. It's so common it has a name: Rebound.
So, unless you are certain that you will not be rear-ended avoid this and all infant seats designed to pop out of a base at all costs. They are not safe. Yes, being able to easily remove your child from the car is a great feature, but it IS NOT worth risking the safety of your child. My local certified police installer deems this seat and others of the same style unsafe. And from the mouth of Chicco's own representative, so does the California Highway Patrol.
Britax Roundabout, Britax Roundabout Advantage, Britax Galaxy and the Britax Marathon are all convertible seats that are VERY safe and have been tested using a tether in a rear facing position that removes this 'rebound' issue.
For the sake of your child, bypass convenience and go with safety.
