I chose Peg Perego because I wanted the best for my first baby. Plus it was the only brand that had descent colors. I didn’t want navy plaid. What a waste of money. The seat is very heavy and the base is very difficult to install. If tightening the baby in while the seats already in the car the plastic around the release button pops off every time. I bought the Atlantico, Peg Perego stroller to go with the carseat, also very disappointing. The way the straps are designed with a piece of plastic that hooks them to the back of the stroller seat is a total design flaw. Now that my baby is 3 months old and can sit up the plastic stabs her in the back of the head. All Peg Perego strollers have the same strap design. I would get rid of the stroller and buy some other kind if I didn’t pain nearly $$$ for it!!!

The car seat is an infant carrier, people! Of course your baby outgrows it quickly, it is designed for the convenience of taking young babies in and out of the car when you have your hands full of diaperbags and cell phones and all the other junk parents are forced to drag with them every time they leave the house.

No question this is a great car seat for us. With a child that has always hated the process of getting strapped in it is a lifesaver not having to complete the task with each stop. I truely don’t find it heavy even with my little one reaching 15 lbs. I welcome the workout. We have the venezia stroller as well and are certainly getting our monies worth. I absolutely love the system and dread the day we can no longer use it. Even if it is only for 6 months at least it was a pleasant 6 months.

MY DAUGHTER IS ONLY THREE MONTHS OLD AND BARELY HAS ROOM IN THERE. SHE CAN’T STRETCH AND SCREAMS. SHE ALWAYS SWEATS IN HER SEAT. WE WENT TO BUY A BIGGER CONVERTABLE SEAT BUT SHE WAS SWIMMING IN THAT ONE. I WON’T BUY ANOTHER INFANT CARSEAT, THIS WAS PRICEY AS IS. PLUS A PAIN TO SNAP OUT OF THE BASE BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO HAVE A BASE. BEST BET LOOK INTO OTHERS AND HAVE A FEW BUCKS. I LOVE PEREGO STUFF BUT THIS IS HORRIBLE!

Oh please, could you people nit-pick a little bit more. This is the best Infant seat/carrier I have ever purchased!!! My daughter was 4lbs. 4 oz. when she was released from the hospital, after being 1 month premature. If it wasn’t for the Primo carrier I would not have been able to bring her home from the hospital. She absolutely loves this carrier, she is 6 1/2 months old now and weighs 13 1/2 pounds. I am getting my money’s worth with this carrier, she still has a few more months of use for it and when she outgrows it I am planning on donating it to a womens shelter.
