Chicco NextFit Zip convertible car seat installed rear-facing in a white vehicle with LATCH connectors and ReclineSure leveliMichelle sitting in a chair reading a book.

Seat is Good for You If:

You want a car seat that is easy to install. 

You want a car seat with a seat belt lock-off.

Use Caution if:

You have a vehicle with non-removable headrests.

You need to fit 3 across in a vehicle.

You want to skip an infant seat.

The harness height is low enough to fit a newborn. The problem we have found is the recline. In vehicles with very sloped seats, it is not always possible to recline this seat enough for a newborn. Chicco does not allow the use of rolled towels or pool noodles to increase the recline. If your vehicle has very flat seats, this seat may work from birth.
