Does anyone else find it difficult to install the carseat? We have to cram it into the sun shade, which means we can't use the shade.

Yes, we have the same problem. We end up having to drape a blanket over it.

We had difficulties, I would sort of tuck the foot side of the carrier in first and then snap it in place. It takes a bit of paying to get it "just" in but we were able to use both once I got the knack down

Hi, I don't use this as a car- seat so I don't have that problem.The only thing that I can think of is to some attach a wide piece of elastic or just fabric tot he under side of this and tie/pin/stitch it around the underside of the car seat.

We have had no problems at all with the fabric or car seat getting to hot/warm in hot weather. Our toddler is very comfy in this seat & loves the cup holders. My biggest complaint would be that in the winter when he has a winter jacket on, it is near impossible to get the straps tight enough. Because of this we've moved it into my husbands vehicle where he rides far less often. I hope this helps!

Hi. I didnt have any difficulty. The housing cover is snug, but i was able to manage it. Good luck!

I emailed Orbit in regards to the sunshade for our new toddler car seat and they said they hadn't yet made one but would be soon. I don't have the stroller seat so I'm not sure if it's interchangeable.

Occasionally we had to try multiple times to get the carseats to fit. If you still have issues the Joovy customer service is amazing and will help. My first TwinRoo never worked properly and then broke, they tried helping me fix it over the phone (with no wait time on hold) and when we couldn't fix it they overnighted me a new one.

Our car has a sunroof and we didn't have a problem. The only problem we had was that we didn't buy the blanket to go underneath the roof bag, we ended up having scuff marks on the car due to that, our fault.

Lifting and lowering the back is a pain. I rarely do it and both my 9 month old son (no longer using the carseat, he's sitting in the actual stroller) and 2 year old daughter have fallen asleep in the stroller without any problems.

:-) Me too! It did not fit the armrest perfectly (mine was a five speed, bucket seats, dual armrest) but with one little snip I was able to get it past the joint. then I tied it down tightly. Not the most elegant solution but it works.

We did not feel comfortable on this seat either, but, rather then replace the seat we bought the 2x sunlite cloud-9, Gel bicycle seat cover, seems to be working well for us, just something you might consider rather then changing the seat. Hope this helps you Jason.

It hasn't for us. We use it a lot too. It is an amazing product. Baby seems comfy. we like the hood that comes with it.

This base its a little tricky... I have had problems with it latching but I think its more user error because most of the time I pop it in and it clicks and locks no problem. I went to the manufacturer website and looked up the base and it showed my model carseat is one that fits this base.

Make sure you have the legs up (the wings that fold under). You can use a rolled or folded towel or blanket to help level it, but do check the directions for forward and rear mounted one more time. I have Honda Pilot and I don't have a problem, but I did have to review directions for installation. I also had a fireman at a local fire department check out if I had it perfectly installed. They do this and they are so nice. As a Grandmother that was reassuring. (My car seat is in storage until our Granddaughter is here again, so that's why my first instructions probably don't label things correctly. Good luck.

A bit- the cover in my car covers the vents in the back, so I have to adjust the angle on the front vents and crack the windows- especially after daycare or running in the park. There are WAY more positives to it though- it's still holding up really well!

You have to buy a separate carseat adapter - there is a special for Chicco car seats. My son is over 37" and fits fine! I have the canopy in the lowest position, too, so my daughter can see over his seat better from the back seat (I use it as a double with two seats facing forward usually). No complaints about room, but there is still more room for him to grow since we can put the canopy higher!

Hi Camila, I was very disappointed to find out that "it doesn't" the way the prior models do, which as you may know, you just pull the handle between the child's fit and adjust, that easy... this model has 3 different positions but you can only change it by removing the carseat from the seat, adjusting the new position pulling a lever from the bottom back of the carseat and then installing it again, witch is very disappointing to me, I have 4 children (always have bought Maxi-Cosi) and that was the main thing I loved about this car seats.. the child is asleep, pull and change position, the child woke up, pull and seat him/her up again, sadly doesn't work like that with this one.

You should find a local car seat safety tech. They will be able to teach you how to install it properly.
