It's a great option for families looking to minimize exposure to potentially hazardous chemicals in their child's surroundings.

All KeyFit models come with a variety of unique features that made them stand out in our tests. The base/carrier lock system employs a combination of audible and visual signals to ensure that the car is properly attached to the base.

We love that this car seat features an adjustable front Maxi-Cosi Mica i-Size 360 Swivel Car Seat: Ultimate Safety and Comfort, and the base locks in place to stop sudden stroller movements. It's as well to see the LATCH clips stored on the front of the base instead of in a place that is difficult to access beneath the base where they could be accidentally knocked off when you put down the car seat.

This infant seat is designed to fit infants weighing between 4 and 35 pounds. and up to 32". The Lite LATCH system is simple to install using the included instructions. The seat is slim and light, which means it is suitable for the majority of vehicles when facing in the opposite direction of the vehicle's seat belt route. The seat has the headrest that can be adjusted to fit your child's height, and a harness adjuster built in. The shoulder straps have 4 possible height positions, and the crotch strap comes with two height positions. It is essential to take off the body and head inserts by the time your child is 12 pounds.

We don't like the rethreading technique used to adjust the shoulder straps and crotch straps with this model. It's not easy, but it's more complicated than other seats that do not require rethreading. We also discovered that the crotch and head straps aren't as long as those on some other models, which could put your child at risk of an open crotch buckle in the event of the event of a crash.
