Baby Products Reviews of Peg-Perego 2011 Primo Viaggio Infant Car Seat, Paloma

Customer Review: Serious shortcomings
Summary: 2 Stars

OK, I'm not impressed. At all. This seat has some serious shortcomings that could and should have been easily avoided in the design, testing and manufacturing stages.

Pros:
- Side impact protection (which was the main reason we bought this).
- Integration with the Peg Perego lines of strollers, old and new.
- Cosmetic appearance.

Cons:
- Heavy as all heck. Can't wait to see how this will work when our child breaks the 25 pound mark...
- Sun shade is next to impossible to position. Doesn't come close to providing enough coverage.
- Detachment from the base extremely problematic and difficult. Seems like you have to pull on the release handle "just right" to get the clasping mechanism to open to release the seat. Rarely do I get it on the first try. THIS HAS NOT IMPROVED/EASED AFTER 6 MONTHS OF USE.
- Changing the carrying handle position is virtually impossible. I don't even bother trying to adjust it anymore, which is presumably a hazard when driving, but what can I do? Again, THIS HAS NOT IMPROVED/EASED AFTER 6 MONTHS OF USE.

And because of the latter two problems, I pray that neither I nor anyone else will ever have to get my child out of the car quickly following an accident or the like.

The reason the item gets two stars is that the side impact protection is one of the better designs out there, and the cosmetic appearance of the seat is very nice. The functionality with the strollers is nice, but who cares considering the other problems.

Recaro needs to step up to the plate and manufacture an infant seat, because this one just doesn't cut it.
