    Easy tutorial.
    Only point of criticism; perhaps just throw a QR code paper in the box so that parents can easily find this tutorial instead of wasting paper and printing out the instructions in a thick booklet. Also would recommend either adding the backless booster tutorial to the end of this video OR have a quick link pop up to direct users to a separate backless seat booster installation tutorial!

      There IS a backless tutorial at the end of this video. (Or did they add it since you last watched?)

    Great tutorial indeed. I love Chicco products like this too. I wish I could buy and have one of these colorful Chicco Kidfit car seats in any specific color they sell them in for use in the backseat of my 2020 Ford Edge but I don’t know of or have anyone out there that’s young enough to use it. Hopefully these are decently priced depending on where you go to buy them at. My former girlfriend Heather also has one of these in the red & black colors in the backseat of her 2020 Ford Edge for her young son to use and he loves it and he nicknamed the backseats in both of our Ford Edges “his kingdom” but her and I don’t see each other much anymore at all. Hopefully I’ll find myself a single girlfriend someday that has a young child who uses a Chicco car seat like this in his or her moms car and her and I can certainly share it by deciding who’s car to put & use it in as it does transfer very easily from one car to another. Most important thing about it is it’s always very safe for anyones growing child.

    I’ve just attached the high back mode, and when attached as tightly as possible at the bottom, the top of the seat still can be pulled out a good 8 inches from the car’s seat back. Is this the way it is supposed to be? With their prior convertibles there was a back tether and there was no movement.

      A booster seat is much different. In this case the vehicle seat belt is securing the child.

      @@chiccousababyThere is no tether on any Chicco booster seats, am shopping for one and been eyeing this brand. I am always trying to educate myself on what I get my children when it comes to safety. Am concerned booster seats having no tether to keep booster seat from moving or else if there is an accident, hopefully never happens.

      The latches on a booster are only to keep the seat in place while unoccupied. It does not need to be tight to the vehicle seat

    • @capone_rd_809
      @capone_rd_809 6 місяців тому

      You probably figured it out by now or returned it, either way the key to make it snug to the seat is not to pull at an angle once clipped in on both sides. You need to pull from the front seat toward you, go in the front seat turn around and pull straight back till its snug, because if you pull at an angle it lifts the tension release latch, that was definitely a design flaw by chicco, them telling you it does not need to be snug is not true.
