Review of Chicco Cortina Keyfit 30 Travel System, Hazelwood

Customer Ratings:

I spent a lot of time choosing this travel system. The factors I considered most when purchasing were safety, comfort, and durability. When looking at some other strollers/carseats in stores a lot of them felt uncomfortable for baby (not much padding) and did not feel very durable, but the Chicco ones felt better in quality to me. This carseat was also rated really high for safety which was extremely important for me. I chose the Hazelwood color for my baby girl because I wanted something gender neutral for future use. I wished the Hazelwood color came in the Keyfit 30 pund travel system but unfortunately Chicco does not make that yet so I settled on the 22 pound car seat because I really wanted this color/pattern. The carseat is a bit heavy with the added baby's weight but it does not bother me because it feels durable and also helps tone my arms. The stroller is a bit bulky when folded (takes a lot of space in my trunk) but is easy to fold up and carry. Overall I am extremely happy with this purchase.

Let me first start off by saying the travel system was very easy to set up. It took me about 10 mins to remove the system from the packaging and set it up. Looks good with the neutral colors and seems extremely well built.

Now let me give Amazon customer service a 5star rating for helping my daughter come home to her family. Londyn was born 4 weeks premature and in order for her to come home she needed to be fit tested to her car seat. We ordered her travel system about an hour before her water break much to the surprise of everyone. Well upon learning that we needed her car seat I called and spoke to a representative who took care of my order with such ease. The end result being it was overnight-ed to me without any hassle! Amazon has my business and will be recommended to friends and family.

It is about time I write a review for the Chicco Keyfit 22. I have owned it for a year now and I am pretty sure I know all of the ends and outs. I spent a lot of time researching travel systems for my first child. I read hundreds of reviews and went to the stores to test them out. I was looking for safety, quality, style, and affordability (in that order). I own an Acura sedan and I didn't find the base hard to install. The seat clicks in a out easily and isn't any heavier than anything else you could find out there. The seat is good quality and the newborn insert was useful when my baby was tiny. The seat belt is easy to figure out and loosening the seat and tightening are not hard. I also found that the belts were not hard to adjust as she grew. The stroller is nice and decent quality. It rolls smoothly and I had no problems with it. It is easy to fold and unfold, but I agree with other reviewers, it is a little bulky. I like the fact that I can place the carseat right into the stroller without waking my baby if she was asleep. However, the basket does not allow for much room to store things if the seat is all the way down. It makes it hard to get things in and out of the basket. My biggest issue with this travel system is the material. I like that it is easy to clean, but it does not breathe well at all! I had my baby in the summer and she was always hot in this car seat. Sometimes sweating without a blanket on her. Although, it wasn't perfect I felt I made a good choice with the travel system and would recommend to a friend.

Honest reviews on Chicco Cortina Keyfit 30 Travel System, Hazelwood

I spent a lot of time choosing a travel system for my first child until finally settling on this one. After 6 months of use I am pretty happy with it:

+ The stroller has 4 reclining levels, including one that reclines completely flat important for newborns

+ the stroller rolls nicely, turns easily

+ the handle can be adjusted to several heights

+ when the baby is small, can close the foot part to create bassinet feeling

+ storage basket is pretty roomy

+ fantastic price!

+ the carseat can be removed from the base and carried with the baby (in those cases when you don't want to wake the baby up by fiddling with straps!)

+the carseat has infant insert and infant head support makes it cozy early on and can be taken out later as the baby gets bigger.

+ since it's a travel system, the carseat snaps very nicely inside the stroller (my baby hated to be in the stroller for the first month but was ok with the carseat, so this feature was perfect for taking walks early on)

Now few downsides:

the stroller might be a bit on the bulky side when it comes to putting it in the car. It pretty much takes the entire Prius' trunk space AND I have to fold the handle down to make it fit easier.

need an infant insert (snuzzler) otherwise enclosure too roomy for a newborn (needs to purchase it separately)

there is not much padding to the stroller now that the babe is 6 months and sits, I use a blanket under him to make it a little softer.

when the stroller seat is fully reclined (and it has to be if you are putting carseat in), it is virtually impossible to put anything other than a very skinny purse in the storage basket! Very annoying. From descriptions that I read, sounds like most strollers are the same way.

In the end, I was not willing to pay a lot more money for systems that might have marginal advantages, so I am still pretty happy with this one!
