Recliner not functioning
The seat can not recline per advertised which makes it very difficulty for my 5 month old sleep during a ride due to the lack of comfort and proper support for my baby

Keeps little one cool
We bought this a few months ago because our 2 year old was having heat issues in a normal car seat in the southern US. The Pria Chill was an instant night and day difference in comfort for our daughter and she went on and on about how “this seat keeps me cool”. She complains when she’s in another car seat now. The only complaint I have this that you can’t turn the fan on manually, it only runs when the sensor thinks it should. Our little one runs hot and has asked several times for us to turn the fan on because she’s warm but the car seat hasn’t decided it’s warm enough to run the fan yet and we have to explain to her that we can’t control the fan. The on/off switch in the power cable is only to turn the system on or off, not the fans themselves.

A must have
I brought this for my 7 month old who is a “hot “ baby. He is always sweating. This is worth every penny! It has fans and keeps him cool!

"Coolest" Seat in the Car
I was given this all in one car seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We currently use the seat as a forward facing seat with my 4.5 year old daughter. The seat feels and looks sturdy. The material is beautiful. The fabric is soft, but breathable, and very comfortable for my daughter, who can be a tough critic when it comes to "itchy" material. We know from experience, this brand has easy to clean carseat material! Removable dishwasher safe cup holders are great! The harness holders are also very helpful. We have not had to use the additional inserts/padding meant for a smaller child, but you can tell they are comfortable and easy to take on and off. The installation process was easy enough with great picture instructions and easy to follow steps. My only challenge was putting the seatbelt through the openings. It's a small opening and the plastic can feel sharp as you are trying to pass the belt through. When we first installed the seat it seemed too loose. We reinstalled and got it to feel more secure. It does say that the seat can move up to 1 inch. The headrest was easy to adjust and raise. The magnetic chest clip seems high quality and very secure. My daughter said she was comfortable and she looked it! She can often complain about feeling uncomfortable or too hot in her seat (even in the winter), and we haven't heard a peep yet. The power cord for the cooling feature was easy to use— it plugs into the back of the seat and we have it routed to the front center console. It's long enough that you could easily lay it flat and easily step over it. The on/off switch is easy to use and the indicator light by the headrest helps you know that it is on. Overall: We love the look of this seat! know it's a high quality safe seat for our family. We were able to install it with little frustration. We are eager to use the cooling feature more often in the summer. We also love that this seat can be used for years to come!

Wow!
I was thankful to be chosen to test out this car seat free of charge in exchange for my honest opinion. I love this car seat- the cooling fans are quiet yet effective, and I especially like that there is a visual indicator when it is functioning so I can tell with a quick glance whether or not my baby is benefiting from the enhanced airflow. The power cord isn't overly cumbersome, the seat itself is made of plush, comfortable fabrics, and the cover and cupholders are removable and easy to clean which is always a bonus! Adjustments were pretty seamlessly made due to the streamlined, no-fuss methods provided, and I don't think I can go back to non-magnetic chest clips now!

Luxury car seat
If you are worried about keeping your child at the right temperature while traveling, this car seat is for you. It has a luxury appearance and feel. Many compliments on its appearance. Easy to clean. Easy harness features are so appreciated. My daughter loves the fans and almost uses them as a sound machine. Wish it had more adjustable options and the balance ball to ensure proper installation. Not a great car seat for a small space. The indicator light can be a little bright with night time driving but nothing the off switch can't fix if necessary. Overall, great car seat and so glad we went for it!

This seat is very unique!
Overall this seat is a game changer for littles, especially on those hot summer days. It was a fairly easy install and the manual was extremely easy and helpful. It took a few attempts to make sure the seat was secure but after that it was smooth sailing. The fans are very easy to turn on and the indicator light is super helpful. I felt like it cooled off the seat very quickly and my baby fell asleep quickly and easily. The strap covers seemed to hinder a tight enough harness so I removed those early on. The only things I wish were different were the rear facing weight limit (40 lbs vs 50lbs), its a little larger than other seats and the fans arent able to be controlled (they sense the temperature and fluctuate between low, medium and high). Overall this is a fantastic seat! !

Wonderful car seat
Absolutely love this seat! The fans work really well and keep my baby cool and content in his seat unlike any other seat I have owned. The fabric is very breathable while still being soft and the seat is very lightweight, making it easy to travel with and transfer between cars. Highly recommend!
