[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this car seat to test out thanks to the people at Stellar Panel. I absolutely loved this car seat. The design is super classy and can work long term for any kid at any age! I’ve had nothing but compliments when others saw this car seat in my car. I was shocked at how big it was but yet took up less room in my car than my other car seat. I found the Maxi Cosi Pria to be super soft and had a lot of cushion to it! When I first pulled it out of the box my little boy crawled onto it and sat in it for 20 minutes just watching his favorite show. If that doesn’t go to show how comfortable it is I don’t know what else does! I’ve already had to use a wash cloth to clean off some food from my little one eating in the car seat and I found everything to come off so easily and leave no mark on the light grey fabric! The car seat was SO EASY to install!! I normally always have to make my husband take the car seat out for me because I can never figure out how to do it right but I was able to install this car seat with no problems! It took up less space than our old car seat so I was able to push my front chair back some! I absolutely loved how cushioned the head rest is to this car seat which gives me so much peace knowing his head would be protected if we were in a car accident. As someone who was in a really bad car accident a few years ago, I take a lot of caution with car seats knowing how dangerous any car crash can be. This is definitely one that I will be recommending to any new mom or buy for my next child!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I were really excited to try this car seat out for our son who is about to turn two. We needed something that would work better than our last car seat which while it was one that could swivel to the side, installing it was an absolute nightmare and even when installed correctly left my husband and I feeling unsure of its sturdiness and safety. Needless to say, it was time for a switch, enter the Maxi Cosi Pria. I received this car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Here are some of the pros and cons we have found with the Maxi Cosi Pria. PROS: 1. We were THRILLED that the Maxi Cosi Pria was the easiest car seat installation we've ever experienced out of about four other seats! Not only was it easy, it was stable and stayed in place giving us no doubt in how well it would perform in case of an accident. 2. The fabric felt incredible and it cleaned up well after my son dropped some cheerios and snack bars in it. Anything that was spilled brushed out effortlessly. 3. The safety harness for our son was so smooth when adjusted. We didn't have to yank our arms off just to get it a teeny bit looser. (This has been one of our big complaints with other car seats.) The harness fits well and he seems quite comfortable. The harness also released well when getting him back out. No fiddling with stubborn straps and buttons that hurt your hands to take apart. 4. Obviously the last big pro is that it's a convertible car seat and can grow with him. The instructions to move from rear to forward facing etc. are all clear and easy to decipher. CONS: 1. Our ONLY complaint is that the seat is really big and bulky which honestly wouldn't even be a problem except for the fact that we drive a very small car. It puts a lot of strain on our backs putting our son in and taking him out because there is only a small window of space to get him through. That being said, we DID test the car seat in two different models of SUVS that our family members own and it fit great. I cannot recommend this car seat for small car owners, but if you have anything larger, it will be an absolute dream! We did add some pictures to show how it fits in our car, the attachment system at the bottom, and the easy to follow directions on the side. (Pardon how dark the photos are. My husband works far away and is gone before it gets light and back after dark but I really wanted a photo of the seat in the car so people can get an idea of how narrow the opening is when installed in a small vehicle.) Overall, this was a solid product! The only reason we can't give it five stars is because it didn't work for our unique vehicle situation. We really enjoyed using the Maxi Cosi Pria All in One Convertible Car Seat!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to receive this Maxi Cosi Pria All-in-One car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I had just discovered that I needed to replace my toddler's car seat very soon, so it was perfect timing! My toddler loves her new car seat. She loves the cup holders and the soft fabric. She often falls asleep in it while we are out running errands, so it must be pretty comfortable. I think the padding feels nice and soft and cozy, I wish I could take a nap in it! The shoulder strap pads are a bit large, but that probably makes the straps more comfortable, and they are easy to remove with the hook-and-loop fastener. The padding for the crotch buckle is quite large and sometimes makes buckling the seat difficult. I like that the strap placement is easy to adjust, there is no re-threading just squeeze the handle and lift up or down. They are also fairly easy to loosen or tighten. My preteen daughter had trouble getting the latch system fastened, the latches are different from the ones on our previous car seat so I think that confused her a bit and she got the strap twisted, but I also had trouble loosening and tightening the latch straps. That is good for keeping the seat secure, but could be annoying if you need to frequently switch it between cars. I love that it can be used for so many sizes of kids and stages of development. It really could be the only car seat you need for your baby. Really my only complaint is the fabric. The light gray doesn't hide dirt. We have only had the seat for a week or two, but the seat already shows dirt from my toddler's shoes. I have not tried to clean the cover yet but the instruction manual makes it sound easy to remove and clean. So hopefully that will be true, and redeem the fabric in my eyes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this car seat to try out through the Stellar product testing panel and we love it! I have a 3 year old son that we used the seat for. He didn’t met the weight requirement to forward face in this seat so we rear faced him and I wasn’t sure what he was going to think but he actually loved it. He said “it’s so cozy” and it looks cozy, the material is super soft and I already found it easy to clean after he got in with mud on his shoes it wiped clean really easily. My husband installed it and said it was easy to install but he was particularly pleased with how easy it is to uninstall. With our other seat you have to put your whole body into it to get it loose but this was super easy to uninstall which is nice if you need to move it from car to car. I love the versatility of this car seat. We can use it for an infant in the future all the way up to toddler and kid booster seat which is so nice, I don’t have to think about buying a new car seat for a while because this one will last through all the stages. Overall impression is super nice fabrics, easy to adjust/install, and versatile!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this car seat as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Right out of the box, the Maxi Cosi Pria seriously impressed with its aesthetics and overall construction. The layers of support and padding seem to provide incredible comfort to my baby, but also gives me comfort knowing that they are snug, safe, and secure. The adjustability ensures that our baby is in the best and safest position possible for their size; the headrest seems encompass/protect the head more than most other car seats we’ve had, and the variable strap positioning looks great. The features of the car seat are some of our favorites, and with multiple children and countless car seats over the years, that speaks volumes. The one click latch anchoring system makes installation a breeze—honestly the easiest we’ve had of any seats. The quick fit shoulder harness is a smooth one handed shoulder and headrest adjustment, and the removable, dishwasher safe couple holders are a game changer for parents and littles. Finally, the car seat is constructed of a plush, comfortable, premium fabric and the color looks great in our vehicle. The only downside that we’ve experienced so far is the size of the seat. Even installed in a full sized SUV, the drivers seat needed to be pushed forward to ensure appropriate car seat positioning behind it when used as a rear facing seat. Families with smaller vehicles that have less second row legroom might experience difficulty when it comes to space. Overall, this is definitely a high quality product that I would recommend if you have sufficient space in your vehicle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Maxi Cosi Pria is a solid choice for an All-in-One, 10 year car seat. The seat supports rear facing up to 40lbs and 40ins and the booster mode goes up to 100lbs and 52ins. Install is simple with a QR code on the side taking you to Maxi Cosi’s site to view the manual and links to installation videos. A very nice feature on this car seat that caught my eye was removable cup holders. This allows for easy cleaning and they are dishwasher safe! The padding is comfortable and thick. There have been complaints from my 30lb 2 year old or 50lb 6 year old. Adjusting the straps for the size can be a bit difficult. The straps are not non-rethread meaning you have to remove the straps and thread them through the appropriate slots for the size child using the seat. This is the only reason I took 1 star away from this seat. If you are using this seat for 1 child, it is not a problem but will require you to uninstall the seat as the child grows and the straps need adjusting. Adjusting the recline and headrest were a breeze. Another notable love about this car seat is the weight. It is very light for an all-in-one. It is approved for airplanes and having a lightweight car seat to bring on the flight is a big plus. Overall a great pick to keep your little ones safe from birth. I received this car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received the Maxi Cosi Pria All in One Convertible Car Seat and were thrilled to test it through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We are just about ready to convert to an all-in-lone style car seat from our infant seat as our little one is getting a bit heavy to be transporting while still secured in the car seat. We currently have a seat that connects to the stroller. Everything was already assembled upon opening the box. A cozy, well padded, modern design complete with two cup holders. It’s a neutral light gray color fit to compliment any car design. We’ve recently leased a Volkswagen Tiguan as our Subaru Outback is very high in mileage. The dealer convinced us we would be happier with this vehicle at this stage of our little one’s life bc it has a lot of leg room in the back seat area. Making it ideal for car seat installation and accessibility. We tested the car seat out on our kitchen floor first. It’s easy to remove the infant inserts and to adjust the headrest as little one grows. It also has a reclining feature for optimal/safe positioning. After securing our 6 month old into the seat I realized how much more padding there is compared to our current infant seat. I’m slightly disappointed with our current seat as this extra padding would have been so much more ideal when our little one was an infant. Our little one seemed to be quite cozy sitting and playing with his crinkle book. He tends to fuss initially when we secure him in our current infant seat. I’ve often wondered if he’s uncomfortable. Not a peep while he was secured in the Maxi Cozi Pria! We then installed the seat in our Volkswagen. It didn’t take long. The most difficult part, while front facing, was latching to the car anchors. It just required a little bit of my weight in the seat for the clips to latch securely. My husband says it would be nice to have another inch or two to in the strap to work with but then I assume that would require a way to tighten the strap which would make it unsafe. There was plenty of leg room and our little one was easy to tend to. Rear facing on the other hand was not as ideal as it took up much more space once reclined, which require the front passenger seat to be pushed up. It left very little leg room for the front passenger. I’m not sure an adult would have been comfortable sitting in the front seat. So overall, installation is simple, but it’s too bulky of a seat if you intend on having a front passenger. We like how the cup holders are removable for easy cleaning. We like how cozy and padded the seat is. Which is a slight compromise I suppose compared to our current seat as ours is easier to wipe clean compared to the Maxi Cozi Pria that has softer fabric (which in turn is more absorbing….not good for those spit ups and blow outs!). If I were to use the Maxi Cozi Pria I’d probably try to use a seat liner. Overall I think we would rate it 3 out of 5, mostly bc of the space it takes up when rear facing. Front facing is fine in our Volkswagen. It’s a tighter fit, but still do-able, in our Subaru. 5 out of 5 on easy installation, coziness/padding/safety, and overall color/look. 3 out of 5 for bulky design.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given the Maxi-Cosi Pria All-in-One Convertible Car Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Overall, it has a mix of positives and drawbacks. My favorite part of this car seat is how cushioned it appears to be. The seat looks comfortable and well-padded, and my child seems content riding in it. It’s also relatively lightweight for a convertible car seat, which makes moving it between vehicles easier but makes the frame of the car seat seem cheap and not sturdy. I did find the installation a bit challenging, as it took some effort to get the seat tightened securely. While the light color looks great, it does show dirt and spills easily, so it requires more frequent cleaning. Overall, it’s a decent car seat with good comfort and design.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this carseat to review from stellar product testing panel. This car seat feels sturdy, comfortable, and well made. The padding is soft, installation was easy, and it feels very secure once in place. I like that it adjusts as your child grows, making it a great long term option. Overall, it’s a solid, high quality car seat that offers both comfort and peace of mind.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This car seat is wonderful. I love the inserts for the newborn stage and smaller kids, my husband says that they do come out a little too easily but our daughter is small and I like the extra support they give her. It was very easy to install with the latch system and we're still rear facing with it right now with no issues. The material is very cushy and my daughter seems very comfortable in it. My favorite feature is the adjustable back so I dont have to reroute the straps every time my kiddo gets taller, those just make a world of difference. I received this product as a member of the stellar product testing panel in exchange for my honest review.
