Viaggio Flex 120 – Booster Car Seat – for Children from 40 to 120 lbs – Made in Italy – Crystal Black (Black)

Even better than Clek – And that says something!
I’m a car seat psycho (for safety) and I’ve tried multiples of every version of seat (infant, convertible, HBB…) to find the very best of the best. After 3 different HBBs, this Peg Flex is the holy grail. Here’s why:It doesn’t have arm rests so your kid can actually do the buckle unassisted. This is huge because you go from a kid that can do their convertible seat straps to a kid that needs to be assisted in finding the buckle every.single.time. in every boosterthat has arm rests. This seat and the Maxi Cosi Rodifix are thus winners in this category.The Flex has a more narrow footprint than others because it doesn’t have armrests. Need 3 kids to ride? Need 2 to sit next to one another? You’re golden. You can park the Flex next to a variety of seats without issue. I have one next to a Nuna Pipa and a Clek Foonf in a Land Rover Discovery (which doesn’t have the broadest back seat).The Flex adjusts in 4 directions so your picky big kid can decide exactly how the seat is best for them.As with all Peg Perego products, the fabrics are OUTSTANDING. We have the “licorice” version of the Flex, which is a combo of really soft, highly padded fabrics touching the body and edges with really gorgeous leather finished with white top stitching. This seat isn’t more expensive than its competitors, buy it looks and feels like it should be. Super gorgeous, even if you have a luxury car-quality interior.This seat “makes my buns feel the happiest of any car seat I’ve ever had!” per my 7 year old. If that isn’t a rousing endorsement, I don’t know what is.The seat belt shoulder clip is well-designed so that the belt easily pulls through and retracts without issue (this was a constant issue with the RodiFix, the Oobr, and, to a lesser extent, the Britax Parkway in both my Honda Odyssey and the Discovery).The folding mechanism seems like a “so what” feature, but is actually really handy. I’ve used it a handful of times in only a few weeks as I’ve found myself suddenly needing cargo room. I just remove and fold up the Flex, park it on the front floor, and collapse it’s 2nd row seat. Super easy and quick. The latch release and install lever is also delightfully straightforward to use.All in all, there isn’t anything to complain about with this seat. Not even the little pull out cup holders. They’re not indestructible, but most European-made seats don’t even offer an add on option (like the RodiFix). I also don’t mind that there’s no bottom as I won’t ever have to discover some sort of weird goo science experiment at the bottom of one!

Great design for taller toddlers, Easy ingress and egress as well
Our grandbaby was outgrowing the car seat, often complaining everything was too tight and felt squished in, despite the straps and cushions at the limits of adjustment. I started searching for a suitable replacement, one that is of course, very safe, and yet easier for grandbaby to get in and out of. This is wonderful seat, well designed, well made, and adjustable for both height and width growth. It is easy to put in the car using the two clip things that snap onto the child seat latches in our car/truck, making it easy to move from one vehicle to another. Grandbaby loves it as view out the window is now unobstructed by padded wings. Don’t get me wrong our previous car seat was great too, snug that baby right in and down tight restricting almost all movement, I often compared putting the grandbaby in the car seat with all the buckles and straps to my experience driving a stock car many years ago where the crew member shoves you down and holds you while buckling you in.Anyway I digress, grandbaby loves the new ride and I love the easy to use features. Hope this helps you decide.

Love this car seat, it’s easy to set up to the comfort of the child. All covers machine washable, easy to maintain, wipe clean and store.
