Maxi Cosi Mico Car Seat
PROS:lightweightawesome design (classic, not trendy)easier to clean than most (not perfect though, we do have a few stains on the blue)decent price for similar car seat choicesgood safety ratings.
CONS:hard to snap into the base at firsta little confusing to set up for the first time into the carhandle bar is a bit bulky and hard for a smaller car
I chose the Maxi Cosi Mico Car Seat for my new baby. This decision took a lot of research, and time consuming internet searches. I wanted a car seat that was safe, light weight, easy to wash, modern, and a ventilating fabric. I looked at many car seats that would have made great contendors but I chose the maxi cosi mico because first off, it had good safety ratings. second, the fabric is wonderful. it's a very lightweight fabric, that's easy to clean, it can be machine washed, and had modern fabric choices. Other great things, it is a light weight car seat to carry around compared to most others. I have truly enjoyed the car seat and my son found it very comfortable. My criticisms would be: the handle bar has to remain back when you drive so that if their was an accident, it wouldn't fall or break onto the infant (this is with most/all other seats) however when you put the bar back it makes it a larger seat so you can't lean the front seat back at all or you will hit it. I don't think other seats with the bar back are quite as big. My other criticism is clicking the seat into the base. It's not a big deal and I got the hang of it as I did it daily but snapping the car seat into the base was a bit tricky and took some work.
