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!

Great Car Seat with an Amazing Feature
This is such a great car seat! It looks great and comes with an amazing cooling feature for your little one. I struggle to help keep my little guy cool in my hot car during the summer so this cooling feature is truly a game-changer! The chord for this fan feature does, unfortunately, get in the way but that, I believe, is due to the fact I do not have an outlet in my back seat. It therefore needs to be routed to the front which puts it more in the way. This isn't a huge issue for me, however, because having the cooling feature outweighs the chord being slightly in the way. It was relatively easy to install rear-facing using the belt path and understanding how to make the correct adjustments were pretty straight forward. I will say, adjusting the headrest up and adjusting the tilt did take a bit of effort; you also have to pull rather hard in order to get a secure fit. I do love the magnetic chest clip closure and the harness clips on the side to keep the straps out of the way while getting your kiddo in; it makes getting a squirmy 2-year-old into a rear facing car seat much easier! The look and fabric of this car seat are absolutely lovely and the design of the head rest makes me feel like my child's head is truly protected. I'm overall incredibly pleased with this car seat. A big thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this all in one car seat.

Premium Comfort
This Maxi-Cosi Pria car seat is top notch when it comes to comfort for your little one. We are using the car seat reverse facing for a 1 1/2 year old. She LOVES getting in this car seat which is a small miracle in itself if you have ever tried to wrangle a toddler into a car seat when they don't want to get in said car seat. First with car seat installation - very easy, the plug adapter for the built in cooling system is easy to plug into the seat. I will say the only downside is you have a cord dangling from the car seat to the outlet when you use it. If you don't wish to use it, you can detach the cord completely. This car seat is NOT for small/compact cars. We are using it in a Chevy Silverado and there is room but it is a very large seat. It did not fit in our Audi Q5. Second for comfort - this car seat has so much padding and cushion that it makes me wish it came in adult sizing. Much of the padding is removable so that if it is your child's way you can adjust. The shoulder straps do come off easily which is great for washing but also kind of annoying that they aren't very secured onto the straps and easy to lose. Ours ended up on the floor boards day one. The single best feature of the straps/harness is the chest clip. It is magnetic and almost magical. It clips securely and is also too difficult for a child to release which is peace of mind as they all try to fidget with the clips. The cooling system is so luxurious combined with the mesh material especially if you have a hot rider. Our little one is ALWAYS sweaty after car rides, but not in this seat. I will be so happy/relieved to have this in the summer months for her. The dual cup holders are nice, and I anticipate this being a great car seat to grow into as it can transition through many stages. I highly recommend this car seat and I want to thank Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this car seat and the opportunity to test this product.

A must have if you live in a hot climate!
As soon as I opened the box and saw this car seat I was really impressed! It's very padded and plush and my son is so comfortable in it. What really sets it apart from my other car seat is the Vent Max Technology cooling system. My son is still rear-facing and he gets incredibly hot and sweaty in his car seat, even with the air-conditioning on. This car seat kept him cool and comfortable. The cooling system is easy to plug into any 12V cigarette lighter outlet in your car. The cord routing is easy to tuck away into my seat and did not get in the way at all. This car seat was also really easy and straightforward to install and is surprisingly lightweight. I also love how it grows with my baby so it's the only car seat I will need to own for him. My only complaint is that the magnetic chest is a little hard to unlatch. Sometimes it unlatches easily and other times I have to wiggle it around a bit to get it to unlatch. Besides this minor complaint I am in love with this car seat and how cool and comfortable it keeps my son. I definitely recommend this car seat if you live in an area where it gets hot. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this all in one car seat.

The best air vents for hot days!
The Maxi-Cosi Pria Chill car seat is the most innovative one that I have seen on the market. I LOVE the addition of the air vents, which is the reason why I wanted to use it. Upon using it, I loved the fact that the car seat was lightly colored, had air vents with multiple speeds, and has plush breathable fabric that keeps baby cool in the car seat in the summer. Before using this car seat, I struggled with keeping my baby cool in a car without ceiling vents. The biggest downside to this car seat is the fact that the chest clip does not stay in place. I have 2 other car seat models from different brands that do not have this issue. The chest clip on the Maxi-Cosi Pria Chill seat slides down so easily that it often rests on top of the crotch clip - an extremely unsafe position for baby. The chest clip slides so easily that my toddler is able to do it with one hand and figure out how to get his arms outside of the straps. If this feature was fixed, I would 100% recommend this car seat.
