Maxi-CosiRomi Convertible Car Seat, Converts from Rear Facing Car Seat (5-40 lbs) to Forward Facing Car Seat (22-40 lbs) Essential Black

I needed a 2nd car seat but also wanted something we could travel with. This car seat serves both those purposes and honestly is great enough to work as a primary car seat! It’s comfy, soft, lightweight, and feels safe. My toddler fits well in it. We also have the bigger maxi cosí convertible car seat and that one is great too! But I don’t know if my toddler son notices the difference between the 2! This is a great value for the money. Installation is the same for both pretty much. You gotta thread that seatbelt through the hole - a minimal pain. No cup holders but I would definitely recommend this to anyone! who is either looking for a travel car seat or needs a primary car seat and wants to keep it simple without all the bells and whistles.

Ultimate travel car seat. At 8lbs it’s very light. It fits perfectly in the bottom of a Uppababy V2. We were able to gate check our stroller and use it on the plane (it’s FAA approved and easy plane install). My son was so much happier sitting in a car seat than in the seats. I felt better to since it’s safer for him.When we went out we would take our stroller, get in and out of cabs and easily install the car seat then we were able to stow it in the stroller. Worth every penny!

I ordered on Amazon since it was from the actual maxi cosí store. I’m so confused because the car seat came in a random box with no labels or anything. The car seat itself did not have any plastic coverings or anything. The manual was not included, and I suspect it might have even been a returned item, not new. I considered using it still, trusting that they wouldn’t send me a used item but the harness was extremely difficult to tighten and loosen I tried to test it and secure my child but it was pretty impossible to get a safe fit. I am all about car seat safety, and I am uncomfortable using this seat for my child. I was purchasing this one for travel since it is light but I will be returning this one and purchasing the cosco scenera.

We're recommending this to all our parent friends. This car seat has gone on a handful of trips over the last year -- domestic and international. It lightweight and can be strapped on to a stroller for easy transport through the airport. We've used it in the plane and in rental cars with no complaints from our little guy.Only real con is that its almost too basic. Car installs is a bit more cumbersome and straps can get caught/stuck after a few uses. It's easy enough to adjust just not something you usually have to do with more expensive seat, but this is fine for temporary use cases.

It worked well with our travel to Hawaii, but I would say that the bottom clip is very low and not adjustable. So for longer and taller kiddos it could be a bit uncomfortable. My son was 1.5 when we used it and it did the job!But definitely light weight for gate check for any air travel which was a bonus!

Light weight and easy to travel with

As another reviewer said, it’s impossible to securely install the car seat using latches. It’s way too loose and would be dangerous to drive. We used the seat belt instead but that may not be everyone’s preference.It’s also much smaller than it claims. My toddler is well below the weight limit at 28 pounds but is not able to fit due to height. We will be returning.

Cumple la función perfectamente, es muy ligero, facil de instalar y muy cómodo. Tenía algunas dudas respecto al tamaño pues vi algunos reviews que tuvieron problemas con este tema, sin embargo para nosotros fue muy simple ajustar el tamaño, mi hija tiene 2 años 6 meses y lo pudo usar sin ningun problema.
