Does this seat make babies hot?

I have the Roundabout and Boulevard in Onyx (black) and the material is smooth and doesn't overheat as much as others on the market, even during summer months. If you baby "runs hot" (mine can get sweaty just from sleeping anywhere) there is an extra-large "seat chiller" sold at babydagny dot com that you keep in the freezer and place on the car seat minutes before putting your child in to cool it down. I have yet to use it for this car seat (don't need it) - it's really great inside coolers though!

Yes the surfaces do get hot if in the sun. I use the infant swings for my 2 year old twins and have had them since they were 1. They are very sturdy and comfortable. My kids won't get out of them!

No, my face and head does not get hot with this pillow. I love this pillow, however, my daughter uses the same pillow and she gets hot.

It does get warm during the summer months because of the thick material, the dark color and the lack of air flow through the seat. I know when I take my daughter out of it her back is usually pretty sweaty. Unfortunately I believe that most car seats are this way. Thank goodness for A/C in vehicles!

Unit is not hot at all. I have little ones around too, and there is not a heat issue, though the enticing buttons are easy for little ones to get to ... such temptations! The cord is more of a concern to me than children (or this grandma!) getting burned.

I have not had any problems in the hot weather with this seat. The fabric is great, and my 18 month old doesn't get very sweaty in it at all. It's sort of a mesh-type fabric, and very cushy.

It does get warm. I have added a cushion to the bottom seat and now I can sit out there at anytime of day.

We haven't had any problems with it getting to hot to sit on. We love this blanket!

it's very similar fabric to most stroller seats, so o don't think it would make a child sweat any more than a regular stroller seat. I'm using it in sunny California and have not had this problem :)

No. I had to try it out before putting it in my son's room but it does not get hot to the touch.

I honestly haven't gotten the chance to use it that much yet... My baby just turned 6 months, but from the few times I have used it I left the infant insert in it (which comes with the seat) and it is a fleece like material and he did sweat! (It was summer time and hot out so I kind of expected it) but when I felt the material the first thing that ran across my mind is if he was going to be too hot sitting on it. The seats material is supposed to be better and more breathable then the G2 I just haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet. But I think it will be fine! Wish I could help more!

The fabric on this car seat seems to do very well in hot weather. The only issue is with the usual parts that get hot on car seats like the plastic and metal. I have owned this seat for a while now and have been very happy with it.

No, it does not get hot. I have never had it overheat or even get warm to the touch.

We bought the infant seat and the swing set for our grandsons for Christmas (ages 1 & 3). While it does get pretty warm (we live in Florida)it does not seem to bother them. They play on it all the time. I hope this helps..

We have an orange seat. While the child is in the seat there wouldn't be a problem with heat because it's very open.

Yes, it does. Make sure you get the appropiate seats for the babies' weight.

Yes. It's a very comfortable seat. It's not as thick as you typically find on an infant seat however. But our grandkid gave us a big smile and a thumbs up!
