Love it overall.
We just got our second car seat. We love the turn feature and the high weight max. We haven’t experienced forward facing yet but I think we will miss the turn feature. I like the easy belt path so you don’t have to dig for the strap under the seat to loop through. We decided to get a second one for our second child because of the higher weight max and want to rear face as long as possible.

2 Stars for this car seat
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have owned this car seat for about 9 months and didn’t use it much. The fabric is not luxury at all. Yet, they charge a luxury price for it. It’s only know after you buy it that it doesn’t rotate while facing forward. We just bought a real luxury car seat with great reviews called the Nuna Revv Rotating instead.

Car seat has forever chemicals in fabric - toxic!
I bought this several months ago - sad that it includes forever chemicals. I found out only after purchasing and wish it was disclosed prominently so customers know beforehand. I was told by customer service that the fabric includes PTFE which makes the fabric stain resistant - but all you need to do is a quick google search to learn how terrible these chemicals are for our health, especially that of young children. Please, make this fabric without toxic chemicals for kids.

No Rotation in Forward Position
Does not rotate in forward facing position. Very difficult to install in rear facing position. Would appreciate if manufacturer made it obvious that rotating ability is ONLY possible when car seat is in rear facing position. The car seat is also excessively large!

love it!
I really love this seat! Looks so good and the turning mechanism works great. My favorite part is it can be turned towards inside with the door being closed. When the weather is bad or cold, I would carry my baby into the backseat first and take my time putting the baby in the car seat so I don’t have to stand in the rain or cold to get her buckled and the baby won’t be cold too. Only con is that there’s no place for the buckles to stay put while putting the child in the seat, so I always need to dig it out from under the baby to buckle.

Happy Baby, Happy Mom, Happy Dad!
4.5 stars!! I agonized over what car seat to purchase. We have been using the doona, but knew we would want to switch our daughter out of it before her first birthday because it’s pretty heavy. After hearing about a different rotating car seat being under investigation, I realized not all car seats are created equal in terms of safety. I compared Graco, Evenflow, Cybex, and Chico in addition to BabyJogger. I utilized both ConsumerReport and BabyGearLab. That’s all it took for me to realized how safe the BabyJogger City Turn is! Both organizations noted how well it performed in their independent, rigorous crash tests, especially against other rotating car seats. I was pretty much sold on BabyJogger but was a little hesitant to purchase because of the price. We were waiting for the holidays to end to purchase because this is such an expensive time of year. But then Black Friday happened!! The car seat went 30% off and I jumped at the opportunity to purchase it!! We had intended to switch our daughter at about 9 months old, but had plans to travel before then. We ended up transitioning her at 7 months and I am so glad. She is clearly more comfortable and honestly it just looks safer. The installation was simple enough and it. doesn’t. budge. My husband is particularly happy with how sturdy this seat is. He can’t stop talking about it, our whole family got a ‘car seat tour’ at Thanksgiving! Ultimately, it loses half a star for two reasons: 1. Like everyone else has said, the straps are super short. Like it’s kinda stupid how short they are. I imagine we’ll have to transition our daughter out of it at about 2 years old. Fortunately, we plan to use this for other kids so it’s not a huge deal. But I could see it being a problem for someone not planning to have anymore children. 2. While it is easy to take the fabric off the seat, it can only be spot cleaned. I understand why you can’t submerge the straps, but I wish the cushions could go in the washing machine. We had a blow out and clean up was rough. Alas, first world problems!

Amazing Car Seat best choice ever!
This baby car seat is an excellent choice for safety and comfort. It features a secure harness system, soft padding, and adjustable settings to grow with your child. The lightweight design makes it easy to install and transfer between vehicles. Highly recommended for parents looking for peace of mind on the road!
