Great Carseat!5
My daughter is 5 months old now and we love this car seat! I did my research before deciding on a car seat/stroller combo, and decided on this one. This car seat is very light and easy for me to manage (I’m 5’2 and 110 lbs). I’ve read complaints about it being difficult to unlatch from the base, but taking the advice of people here, we used WD-40 on the mechanism and it has worked perfectly ever since – no problems at all! I unlatch the car seat from the base easily everytime.

I also like the anti-rebound bar, in addition to the added safety feature, it’s a great added bar for holding onto while picking up or putting down the carseat.

I’ve also had many compliments on the look of the car seat and stroller. The colors and design are great, fashionable but not loud. I’ve also noticed that my daughter LOVES to look at the dots design on the inside of the canopy, it is a perfect design for young eyes that are attracted to different colored dots and dot outlines! I catch her staring at it often and she sometimes reaches up to touch the dots.

great stroller and car seat!4
I bought this stroller for my son prior to his birth, and I love it. It’s easy to fold up the stroller and put it in the car and great for moving around in congested areas! The only thing that kept me from giving this travel system 5 stars was that my son is only 5 months old and the car seat has started to pill where his feet rub. I really liked the texture of the material when I bought it, but it seems like it might not have been the best for durability. I also love the rebound bar and the simplicity of getting the car seat in and out of the car. I would definitely recommend this (or any other combi product) to any parents out there!

Fast and reliable5
great for the other car or grandma’s car!! easy to use and secure!!

Combi base4
The base seems to be high quality. It is sturdy and easy to install. It is very easy to attach and unattach the car seat. Other than being pricey, there is no complaints.

Extra for second car5
We bought this as a second base for my car. This make it easy to move between our two cars without having to undo all the LATCH straps everytime we switch cars or when the other parent wants to take the little one out for a ride. I highly recommend getting a second base if you are a two car family.

Great Car Seat5
Our baby hasn’t arrived yet, so I will update this review when we can actually put this seat to use, but so far, we love it!

I spent a great deal of time researching car seats, as safety, comfort, style, and size were all HUGE issues with us. Finally settled on the Combi Shuttle due to it’s safety ratings and overall features. Then, they came out with the Shuttle 33, which made our decision even tougher. We really wanted to be able to use the infant seat for the full first year of our babes life, so the fact that we can go up to 33 inches and 33 pounds was an awesome feature. We figured that the extra pound of car seat weight was worthwhile.

Some have said they don’t like the handle always having to be up while in the car, but I am on the other end. Putting the handle down just extends the length of the seat, pushing the front car seats even further forward. I do love that you can use the handle to prop the seat up for the baby to sit or nap in.

The buckle is a little tough, as are all puzzle lock buckles, but safety first! All the straps are super easy to adjust and we love the fabric. It is soft, easily removed and super washable.

Great car seat, a few dislikes4
The color is bright and adorable, I originally thought the canopy was black and white stripped, turns out it is white, black, blue and green stripped. This car seat is very large, we have a ’03 Land Rover Discovery 2 and it takes up a lot of the back seat being in the middle. It wouldn’t fit behind the passenger seat unless the seat was pushed very far forward, too far for someone to sit in the front. We also have an Audi RS4 (which is a mid-sized sedan) that it doesn’t fit in at all. The seat is bulky and heavy for me to carry, my husband doesn’t seem to mind. He did say it is difficult to unlatch at times, he also has trouble buckling the baby into the seat due to his large hands. Besides that, the seat seems very safe and is only one of two that is offered with the anti-rebound bar. It is the smaller of the two (the other being the Britax brand). So far we like the seat a lot and are happy with our purchase.

recommended for special needs, low weight older babies4
This was the third infant carrier for my baby, who is actually turning 2 very soon. The first one was rated 27″, the second 29″, now this one 33″. With a child who has less control, with special needs, this has been the answer. Thank God for Combi! I was at a loss of how to transport a little one who can’t sit in a grocery cart. Taking a convertible carseat in and out would be a hassle. Note: it doesn’t fit well in the front of grocery carts, I use a simple buckle to go through the cart and put it in the place where the seatbelt would go (if you were to use with out the base). You could use a bungee cord type buckle just make sure it is all secure. Some of the dvd player cases have plenty of extra buckles that are long enough or can be doubled. You definitely do not want baby sliding!

One point of importance…. I thought about the feet being cramped at 33″ still rear facing, but the design of this carseat is better than most when in the base. The rebound bar is annoying but even baby learns to like it. If your little one cannot face forward because of low weight, ANY carseat will have to be backwards, so why not use a carseat that is transportable? Easy in and out.
