There is a reason this seat is trending right now— it’s gorgeous, base install is easy, and the dream drape is genius. But that’s it. I’ve used the Chicco Keyfit prior to this and I miss it. The fabric on the canopy is bulky on the edges near the handle hinge and it makes moving the handle up and down a really obnoxious chore. The shoulder pads and crotch pads are ridiculous— they look cozy as heck in the pictures, but the shoulder pads actually appeared to be suffocating out newborn and the crotch pad was ill fitting and poorly designed and rendered it useless. With my fourth baby, I’m really not in the mood to deal with daily inconveniences from poor function design. The seat is beautiful, but actually using it drives me nuts.
