Description of Maxi-Cosi Priori Convertible Car Seat, Gipsy

The Maxi Cosi Priori Convertible Car Seat is unlike any other convertible seat you will find on the US market with a streamlined design and plush, removable, and washable seat padding in eye-catching colors. Maxi Cosi car seats are new to the United States, but have a long-standing reputation among European families as some of the safest, simplest, and most stylish car seats in the business. Maxi Cosi car seats are affordable but anything but cheap. The Maxi Cosi Priori Convertible Car Seat can protect an infant child up to 35 lbs. in a rear facing position, or a child from 22 to 40 lbs. in the forward facing position. Most car seats for infants have a max weight of 30-33 lbs. in the rear facing position. By using the LATCH attachments or your vehicles safety belts, the rear-facing-to-35 lbs. option makes the Priori extra safe for young passengers. Another unique feature is the ability to recline to four positions that lets boys and girls up to 40 lbs. relax on short or long rides. The recline is easily adjusted with the seat still installed. The colored level indicators, also unique to the Maxi Cosi Priori, ensure that the Prioris base is always installed at the proper angle.

Baby Products Reviews of Maxi-Cosi Priori Convertible Car Seat, Gipsy

Customer Review: Horrid fabric and they will not stand by their product.
Summary: 2 Stars

I purchased two Maxi Cosi Prioris in early 2008, one being this Gypsy color and the other being the color called "Tan Tech". I too was wooed by the cuteness factor, and selected my respected colors based on them matching with my car interiors. While I felt that the seats were easy to install and use, the poor quality of the Gypsy cover means that I cannot use it for my 2nd child. I still have over 3.5 years until the seat expires, yet the orange cotton fabric on the sides has degraded from the SUN to the point that it is completely coming apart at the seams. Why they would use such cheap fabric on a $200 (at the time) car seat is beyond me. It is not like sunlight in the back of a car shining on a rear-facing carseat is not forseeable, but this fabric faded completely within months, and started falling apart after about a year. I called customer service thinking that they would at least replace the cover because it clearly is made with inferior materials and shoddy workmanship (which should be under warranty for LIFE), but they informed me that there is only a 1 year warranty on the seat and that I could purchase a new cover for $42. Since I had to shell out anyway, I did at least purchase a different color, another Tan Tech, since that cover doesn't contain the dreaded cotton panels and has hold up well. BOO Maxi Cosi, when it is time to purchase more seats for my children I will never look your way again.
