Nothing compares

Love having this new car seat that can still face backwards and spin 360! All of the functionality and ease with these products makes “mom-ing” EASY!

Another Great Product!

We have fallen in love with Orbitbaby products! We just transitioned from the infant car seat to the toddler seat for our 8 month old son and the biggest convenience is that it uses the same base! Of course the quality is unmatched and my son is always comfy enough to never cry on a car ride. Now that we are expecting another in a few months we excited to see how the Orbitbaby system grows with our family!

SHOW STOPPER!!

Love this car seat sooo much ! I had the infant car seat and loved it so I knew I had to get the toodler seat and I’m so glad I did. Every time we go out with it makes people turn twice, yes ! It’s that amazing. My toodler loves it as well. Love that I can use it with my stroller as well. I know I keep using “love” but I genuinely do. As a mom who is always on the go this car seat is so easy to put in and out of the car. I like the magnets on the side that keeps the straps from moving and the fact I can place the cup holder on both sides of the car seat.

Easy to use

My girl loves this seat. She was ready to move up from the infant seat, but I wasn’t ready to give up the ease of it rotating. I’m so glad this still fits in the base! It’s easy to use and feels very safe.

Overall Orbit Stroller and car seat system

14 years ago I was walking the streets of Menlo Park when I came across the original orbit stroller set. I was blown away by its design and functionality. I never forgot about the stroller. When I became pregnant last year I didn’t hesitate to purchase this stroller system. I get so many compliments especially when I’m taking my baby out of the car seat and people see that I’m not breaking my back. They all wish they had the same set up. When I purchased the toddler seat I didn’t love the angle of the seat. I was use to the infant seat which cradles the baby. The toddler seat is more upright. I quickly realized it didn’t matter. My daughter adjusted quickly and so did I. I recently put the toddler car seat on the stroller base for a doctors appointment. It was so convenient especially after she received her immunizations. Not having to move her twice made it more comfortable for her. Overall I love this entire system and I have every piece they offer: Infant Car Seat, Stroller Base, smart hub car seat base, jogger stroller, and toddler car seat. If we decide to have a second child I’ll be buying the helix and kick board for the stroller.

What’s not to love.

Absolutely love this transition seat. Quality is always unmatched but Orbit really went beyond here. LOVE that it latches to the stroller. This is an all in one stroller folks.

Great Car Seat

Overall, the orbit system has been seamless since we’ve had our little one last year. This toddler car seat is a great upgrade & Quality is fantastic. The only con for us has been transferring the seat from car to stroller. It’s quite heavy to transfer from car to stroller often compared to the infant seat.

Love the seat

My 8 month old is 20 lbs and very long and he outgrew the infant carseat but transitioning into the toddler carseat I’ve noticed he’s a little too small and his head isn’t very supported when he falls asleep. His head keeps falling forward and I have to keep placing his head back on the side of the head rest. There needs to be an in between cushion insert that I can put in the carseat to prevent this from happening. I’m sure in a few weeks he will grow and this won’t be an issue. Love the feature of the magnets on the side but wish there was also a magnet to hold the middle part on the buckle down because it falls off every time I take him out of the car seat. I love the option of being able to use it without the car seat base but wish it went in a complete 360 circle so I can turn the seat all the way around when I’m in the drivers seat.

As good as the infant car seat.

Worth the money to buy as baby grows. It is a little heavier and more awkward to move seat in and out of car with toddler in it but that’s to be expected

Five stars �

Mon expérience avec vous a été incroyable, c'est un design si élégant que j'aimerais être une fille et être toujours éveillée pour en profiter. Je suis désolé qu'il ne soit pas inclinable, mon petit humain est trop endormi, j'apprécie vos services et je laisse ici ce commentaire, que j'ai un peu regretté de l'avoir rendu, une si belle chose méritait une chance

Side handles

It’s hard to put arms all the way around this to hit the side handles to pivot the car seat. I’m 5’1 and my daughter is rear facing. When I go to unlock the handles that allow it to pivot (turn) it’s so uncomfortable. I smash my daughter with my arms and have to get on my tippi toes to reach it. Other than that I love it.

Bulkier to swivel, but still convenient!

I think this just comes with the nature of our babies growing , but the toddler seat is harder for me to swivel as needed than the infant seat. The swivel is a key selling point why we invested in the Orbit system, so we like that it's still available, it's just not as seamless as with the infant seat. Overall, our growing baby is still comfortable in the seat and SAFE, so we love it!

Orbit car seat malfunction

I had bought the infant G5 and absolutely loved it. We now transitioned to the toddler car seat and when I got it the car seat latches that go into the orbit swivel base were sticking and didn’t latch into the base. I was so frustrated, but I contacted their customer service and they are sending me a replacement car seat! Super happy with the service I received. They have wonderful products, so it must have been a manufacturing fluke.

Hey Liz, I am glad we were able to get you taken care of. Thank you for providing us with video of the issue. This allowed our techs to verify and identify the issue easily. We take pride in our product and stand behind it! We appreciate the review and please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.

Front facing

First, the toddler seat came damaged, we reached out and another one was shipped. Minor inconvenience. The base of the toddler seat is too wide to sit flush to the bottom on the cars seat bottom, the bolsters don’t allow the toddler seat to sit flat. Without the use of a base it does not feel as secure, primarily using the seatbelt only as the security allows the seat to teeter from the left side. The quality isn’t there compared to the infant seat with base. Also this seat is so big it’s a huge hassle to get the child in and out of the seat, it barely fits in the car (Mercedes Eclass). Design team needs to work on some changes before I would recommend.

Orbit Baby

Hey Zach, It sounds like there may be some user error going on, as your description of the how it is installed is not correct. This is most likely why you are experiencing issues. Our in-house car seat expert will reach out to you direct asap.

Baby is comfortable in hot temps.

We live in south Texas and have two of these seats in wool. They don’t get as hot as some other seats with cheaper fabric. Seating position is perfect, and we love the little cup holder that it comes with. Highly recommended!

Absolutely love this seat!

The toddler seat is an absolute God send! When I am out with my daughter and she falls asleep in the car, that does not stop my day. I simply click the seat into the stroller frame and we are on our way! Orbit is definitely the G-Wagon of the stroller world!
