Great seats

Bout these 3 years ago and they are still in good condition. I will be replacing these with seats that are less wide because I had a surprise baby and entering into the world of 3 in a row car seats - wish me luck :)

Very happen with Chicco. I loved using the infant seat and love the nextfit convertible seat too. Very smooth in and and when dealing with the straps. Super easy latch system that I love. I got the model with the easy zip off fabric and it has came in handy after car sickness. Definitely reccomend this seat

Pros

Easy Zip off fabric
Smooth tightening and loosening straps
Latch system is great
Lots of recline positions

Cons

A bit heavy.. but a great seat

So far, so good!

This seems like a nice transition seat from the infant carrier; it still cradles and reclines about as much. We had to put it on the most incline to keep baby's chin from not being on her chest - so I hope that will improve as she gets taller and not be a problem. I also worry she'll be too tall soon, but I read this one's supposed to be good for taller torso kids so here's hoping!

We love our Chico Nextfit Zips! They are so easy to unzip and throw in the wash. They are crazy heavy so I wouldn’t recommend traveling with them but they are wonderfully comfortable to have permanently installed in your car.

Pros

In your regular car- not for travel.

Cons

Chicco

By Holly

on May 5, 2019

Verified Buyer

This car seat was very east to install with the super cinch latch.
The padding was very plush and seemed comfortable.
I have to move my car seats out of my car sometimes for work and this car seat is extremely heavy.
If you have to move it a lot I would not recommend it.
I also found that the high sides made it more difficult to get my son in rear facing in this car seat.
The cupholder on this seat is also a joke. It doesn't hold my son's cups and for a $200+ car seat I feel like they could have provided a better cupholder.

Pros

Easy Installation
Comfortable Fabric
Easy to take the cover off and wash

Cons

High Sides make it difficult to rear face
Heavy if you have to move it from car to car
Cupholder

Awesome car seat

Easy latch installation, love that it has the zipper to make it easy to remove and wash. My only negative is that the seatbelt harness installation is hard to do. But if you plan on using the latch system then you don’t have to worry about that.

Happy baby!

Heavy and bulky with high sides but I prefer the added protection which is why I went with this seat over the Britax Boulevard. Zip feature is amazing. I also love that it has a storage compartment for the manual. Strap covers have nice cushion to them. Also, a TON of recline options! And the best thing; the install! Extremely easy. I can’t even express it enough how easy it truly is.

Great Car Seat

By Erika

from Miami, Florida

on March 27, 2019

Verified Buyer

I love this car seat. We decided we needed a car seat in my husband's car as well now that the little man is in daycare so we branched out from our Maxi-Cosi and I'm so happy we did. This car seat takes up less leg room from the front passenger seat which is a plus in a mini cooper countryman. The straps are easy to tighten and loosen and the installation is very easy and you know you're doing it right with the levels on each side. I absolutely love the look of the Eclipse color that I just found out is discontinued, but none-the-less we are looking to purchase a second version of this now that our son is growing out of the original Maxi-Cosi seat. Highly recommend.

Cons

I wish it had some sort of shade or something to add for more sun protection.

My toddler and infant absolutely love this car seat. They are very content and comfortable. It also feels secure and safe for them. 5 stars

We purchased this car seat because I knew it, I trust it! We have one already!
This is the car seat for our second child, this is an amazing seat, I like it very much, because of its reclining options and that it can be easily unzipped to be washed, it’s the best purchase ever, a great investment!

Pros

Reclining options
Easy unzipping (for washing)
Safe

I like the car seat in general as it so easy to be adjusted, it fitted our baby from day 1, now we changed the position slightly since he is 3 months, he enjoys it
The only thing that i didnt like much, is that it’s bulky or at least bulky for our, so if you have small car better to try it first

We replaced our other car seat because it was expired & bought this one. Our other car seat never felt super sucure when it was rear facing. I love this car seat! Super snug fit, easy to install, & very comfortable! Worth every penny!! I would definitely recommend!! Also, super fast delivery!

Pros

We haven't had it more than a couple of weeks but so far so good. I think we are stunned at how much larger convertible seats are compared to the infant seat we had. This one is well made, easy to install, and probably wouldn't seem too large if we had a bigger car. (We have a VW wagon and I know some of you probably have an SUV). The straps are a little hard to clip and snug up. That's why I'm not giving it 5 stars.

This is the 4th carseat I've bought from Albees originally the keyfit 30 and now 3 nextfit seats. Initial one for my daughter for our grandson. My husband and I keep our grandson during the week and we initially thought we could share one seat and move between our vehicles. The price break allowed me to purchase the 3rd. Love it.

Chicco Nextfit ZIP

By Julianne

from Sachse, TX

on January 21, 2019

Verified Buyer

Extremely easy to install. My 14 month old has used it for the past four months and she's very comfortable in it. Also, easy to unzip and wash (which we've already had to do). The only con is that it's hard to get the zipper connected when putting the cover back on. My husband had to help me. Not bad enough to deduct a star though. It is a larger carseat but worth the extra space it takes up and super easy to put the baby into.

Newest Addition to our Chicco Family

By Allie P.

from Frederick, Maryland

on January 2, 2019

Verified Buyer

Our family started using Chicco back in 2015 which included the Bravo travel system, then come 2016, we added 2 NextFit Zips. We welcomed another son in 2018 and shortly before we were going to switch him into one of the NextFit Zips, the car was totaled and we lost some of our gear. I found the IX Zip and bought it around Black Friday and it arrived within a few days. Just as our older generation NextFit, this one was super easy to install. Our youngest suffers from motion sickness on a regular basis and the cover is easy to get off and clean up. I honestly think the straps are easier to adjust than the older models and I like that the chest clip is click and go rather than the older 2-setting feature.

Customer Images

Pros

?Straps are east to tighten/loosen
?Great leveling system
?Low maintenance cleaning
?Great LATCH system
?Soft, comfortable cushioning

Cons

?Pretty bulky, therefore hard to carry from car to house, car to car, etc.

Fast Holiday Shipping & Would (did) buy again

By Totoro

This is my second Nextfit IX ZIP and I like it. Looks like a first class airline seat for my daughter. The sync cord to tighten the harness keeping my tolder in seems to be shorter than the first IX ZIP I bought at another retailer but it is not a problem.

I like this seat better than the britix version because the harness release button that keeps your tolder in is not recessed into the base soo much that it is hard to release the slack on a daily basis. I feel the included cup holder is on the smallish side though.

This is the best car seat! It’s very easy to install and switch between cars. It is a little bulky but not hard to move.

Best convertible car seat

By Molly S.

This was my second purchase for a Chicco Nextfit zip car seat ready for baby number 2. My first baby hated being in the infant car seats so at about 6months we switched her to the chicco nextfit and travelling with her in the car was suddenly so much easier. Ilove how easy it is to clean but just unzipping it, I love that you don't have to unthread all the straps as the baby grows and it's great being able to keep her rear facing for so long. I managed to buy this one for a great price here on albee baby and am excited to start using it for my second child.

The Chicco Nextfit is a solid carseat! I love all the padding to keep my daughter comfortable and safe. It was so easy to install and adjust to fit my daughter's size and also my vehicle.

Kid loves it, just one hiccup

By Kellye

from Seattle

on October 3, 2018

Verified Buyer

The seat is great. The instructions for install are fairly confusing and the pictures don’t actually provide much help. There is such a thing as too much information.
My kid looks comfortable and snug, but it is hard/awakard to lift him up and over and get him in it. Slight lack of thought when making the side angle of the seat. . Perhaps it’s just the rear facing that is more challenging and once he is forward facing it will be easier. Overall, it’s great and I feel that he is safe. I do miss any type of cover from the sun but overall, great buy.

Pros

Safety.
Comfort

Cons

Ease of getting baby in.
Lack of sun screen or cover.

Comfortable and Safe

By Anaelena M.

I love how easy it was to install right out of the box. We had the original Nextfit with my first child and new I wanted the newer zip version when our second was ready to transition into a convertible. It feels sturdy and very safe. The fabric is soft to the touch and my baby who just outgrew infant seat seems comfortable in the cushioned seat. The new seatbelt holders make it a breeze to get baby in and out from buckles. I look forward to the easy unzipping for cleaning in the future. I would highly recommend the Nextfit Zip!

Pros

Comfortable, soft, safety features, easy installation, easy recline option.

Cons

Difficult to tighten latch while rear facing.

Baby looks comfortable

By Stella

from Santa Clara, California

on August 3, 2018

Verified Buyer

We chose it because of its higher backward weight limit, and we are happy with the product.

Pros

Love the soft surface and overall good support.
The color is beautiful.
The several cushions on the belts make baby more comfortable.

Cons

The bottom of the neck/head support seems to lie in middle of baby's head, not sure whether she is bothered by this part.
Though the 9 reclining positions, the seat seems not at the ideal angle, since the indicator is not at the perfect middle position.

Even more improved than last version.

There were minor improvements but they are even more comfortable. Last one was great but it is better!

Pros

Good seat.

Best Uses

Road trip!

Cons

Little heavy to carry around in the car seat cover.
