would not reccomend August 29, 2008
I bought this after months of research because of its high safety rating, and am happy with that-that is why 3 stars. BUT it is heavy and the stroller is bulky. The cup holders will only fit plastic water bottles or something that size, so if you have a metal water bottle or something you reuse it is too big to use. I also don't like how the basket has to be held up by a piece that is very hard to get back off. I end up having to sit down on the asphalt just to remove it. The stroller is so big it barely fits in my jeep trunk and does not fit in my Nissan Altima's at all. I would recommend the car seat but not the travel system.
 contact dermatitis June 11, 2008
1 out of 5 found this review helpful
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 raw 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.
 Please ignore the one star review April 1, 2008
13 out of 15 found this review helpful
Please ignore the reviewer who rated the seat one star due to the rebound issue. I am a certified child passenger safety technician and this is NOT a safety concern. Almost all rear facing seats will rebound in a crash. The only ones that won't are infant seats with rigid LATCH (the only one currently available in the US is the Baby Trend Latch-Loc with rigid LATCH) or one with an anti-rebound bar like the Britax Companion and convertible seats that tether rear facing (all Britax convertible seats, Sunshine Kids Radian, etc). As long as your seat moves less than an inch in any direction AT THE BELT PATH (i.e. on an infant seat with a base, right at the seat crack where the other poster said it was tight) it is safe. The Chicco KeyFit is a very good seat. It is without a doubt one of the best on the market currently. It installs like a dream and fits small babies very well. As a tech of seven years, I would not hesitate to recommend this seat or use it for my own child.
Deemed UNSAFE by certified seat installer!!! March 25, 2008
6 out of 16 found this review helpful
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.
 Love the stroller, but the size... January 6, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I really do love this travel system. I was extremely interested in the KeyFit system and the stroller seemed to have what I wanted. I really likes that the recline on the stroller wasn't eleastic and string controlled. The infant seat fits so easily into the stroller.
The only thing at all that is kind of a bummer is that, as a full size stroller, I can't always take it with me everywhere. I have a Prius and it takes up a good deal of space in the storage area. I take advantage of all available space in the car, though, because I love the stroller and looking at lightweight and/or umbrella strollers makes me sad.
