Worth It!
I really appreciate that Chicco is one of the only ones that has extra bases instead of me buying a whole other car seat for our other vehicle. My baby will only ride in one at a time, obviously!
Great base!
Easy install and feels nice and secure. Gives me a piece of mind
Pricey
Super nice we can switch our seat from vehicle to vehicle. Only downside is the price of the base.
Worth the money
Best purchase to be able to take my kid in 2 different vehicles by only switching car seat & keeling base. Didn’t want to buy cheap second one because this brand has been fantastic!
Easy to use
My grandson just graduated up to this system. This makes it much easier to place him in and out. We’ve purchased multiple bases for dad’s car and grandparents car so the coupons are great!!
Excellent Purchase!
Love the ease of having this second car seat base, being able to move car seat from one car to the other easily without headaches it’s awesome!
Makes life easier
We got the base as an extra for our other vehicle and for when grandparents take the kids. It makes it very easy just to transfer the seat over when we use another vehicles as opposed to having to remove the whole base which is just a pain and time consuming.
Highly recommend This Car seat and Extra Base
Love that this car seat offers the option to purchase an extra base. We move the seat from my car to my husbands truck often, it’s a breeze to do so. We are grandparents in our 60’s and find this rotating car seat so helpful and handy. I can lift it and move it between cars with no problem. My son and daughter-in-law ended up buying this same car seat system for their cars.They swore by the Nuna but after seeing the breeze of mine rotating, getting our grandson in and out and moving between cars they purchased this same one and love it as well.
Make switching vehicles a snap!
Bought this as a spare for my daughter in law’s car so her and my son can switch out the seat depending on vehicle they use. They absolutely love it. The seat itself is amazing. This was just a bonus!
It's complicated!
My son and his wife requested that I get this car seat base for my car. I did. It was expensive--over $100 for the base only! And I did not get free shipping! I am not rich. This was a lot. My son installed the base and showed me how to insert the car seat. That works well. I do not transport my grandson in my car often. I wanted to remove the base from my car for an overnight trip with friends. It turns out that I cannot remove the base without the "key"--that is attached to the car seat! My son's family was on vacation, so the car seat was hundreds of miles away! My friends and I had to travel in cramped style because the car seat base would not budge from the seat in my car. Ugh!
Love
Love that the base can click in from one car to another with this base. We love this car seat
Fits both cars!
Nice to have a base in both cars. Fits in SUV and in sedan (Ford Fusion)
Must have
Easy to install and sooo much easier to get out son in and out of the carseat
Good product. Annoying that the customer has to pay return shipping.
Nice product. Frustrating item Is that I had to return it and I had to pay the cost. Based upon its size and funny shape it was $84 to ship it back.
Keyfit 360
We absolutely LOVE this car seat. I was apprehensive since it just recently hit the market but it is soooo nice. I absolutely love that we can turn our daughter to get her out more comfortably. The seat itself is comfy and roomy. I love that there are safety features that indicate when it is in the right position. A big plus is that you can buy extra bases so that you can switch the seat out easier. My daughter seems to be really comfortable in this and has a lot of room to grow! 10/10!
Convenient.
Pricey for a base. But way cheaper than buying an extra car seat. The spin feature is the win here!
Easy to install
Super easy to install! I watched the video and had it installed the first time in less than 5 minutes. Feels very secure.
Car seat
Love this car seat! Especially great for small torso babies.
Great system of Car Seat and Base
Great Car Seat and Booster Combination. Once the base is installed, it is very easy to move the car seat from one car to the other. The car seat itself is very easy to maneuver in the base.
Truly the Best!
Absolutely love this car seat! Bought this car seat for my grandson and then a base for my car and have been so pleased. This is the second Chicco carseat we have purchased and could not be more impressed with the quality and impressed with the safety rating. I would 100% recommend this carseat/base to anyone.
Rotating base
We have twins so it was so great to find a rotating toddler seat that allowed for separate bases to be purchased, so we did not have to buy 4 seats for our 2 cars. They are very easy to take off and we have had no issues with them, definitely love these seats.
With the purchase
Easy installing
Works well between the two vehicles!
Works well!!!
Love this!!
We love this car seat and love that it comes with a separate base so we can use it in both vehicles. It really is worth the money!! I'm obsessed with it! My baby boy is so comfy and it's so easy to use. No awkward turning to get him in or take him out. The straps glide and are so much easier than his infant car seat. If you have multiple vehicles, it is easy to detach from the base and attach to the other. The base is easy to install. If you can afford it, I'd highly recommend getting it!
Amazing base!
I absolutely love that there is a base for this convertible car seat! It so very easy to install and I didn’t have to buy 2 car seats or worry about switching the whole thing when moving cars.
Great base
Stays snug, definitely get two though!
Great quality
I love everything about it My son loves it and it's so easy to put him in or take him out .. it's new to us and we will get used to it
Easy to move seat between cars
My husband installed and while he didn't say whether it was hard or not, he did say there was very little swearing. The base is nice to help interchange car seats between cars. The car seat needs to be facing you to remove and is easy to do so with the key attached to the car seat. Durable and not cheaply made.

Chicco Fit360 is easier to install and has a smoother rotation, but is more expensive and bulkier. Graco is a more affordable alternative with decent rotation.
vs Other rotating car seats
Chicco Fit360 is considered one of the best rotating options due to its LeverLock installation, though it is heavier and pricier.

General experiences with the Chicco Fit360 rotating car seat
We have the Chicco Fit360 and love it. The rotation is a game changer for getting my toddler in and out, especially in a small car. Installation was super easy with the LeverLock. Only downside is it's pricey, but worth it for the convenience.

Downsides of the Chicco Fit360 rotating car seat
I have this seat and it's been great. Pros: easy install, rotation is smooth, feels high quality. Cons: heavy and bulky, not fun to move between cars, and it takes up a lot of front-to-back space. I had to move the front seat forward quite a bit when rear-facing.

Chicco Fit360 Zip Cleartex rotating convertible car seat feedback
Just got the Chicco Fit360 Zip Cleartex and love it so far. The zip-off cover is a nice touch for washing. Rotation is smooth and makes it so easy to load my daughter. Installation with the base was a breeze. Yes, it’s expensive, but I think it’s worth it for the daily convenience.

Concerns about lockoff panel and bulkiness
I love the ease of install and rotation, but I have two complaints: it’s huge front-to-back, so my husband can’t drive with it rear-facing behind him. Also, my two-year-old figured out how to open the lockoff panel with her feet! Chicco says it’s still safe but it makes me nervous.

Comparison between Graco Turn2Me and Chicco Fit360
I tried both. The Chicco feels more premium and the rotation is smoother, but it’s way more expensive and bulkier. The Graco is almost as good for less money. If installation ease is top priority, go Chicco. If budget matters, Graco is a solid choice.
