They must have updated the manual because loading the car seat into the kzbin.infoUgkxIG_q-ZqgbzYXwbeApK3AybegDUy4f2fF double stroller was mentioned in the manual (unlike previous comments/reviews). The undercarriage basket is quite large but it is difficult to access when the back rider is reclined, however my toddler usually doesn't fall asleep in the stroller these days so I haven't had an issue. I was amazed by how smooth the ride was and how easily I was able to maneuver the stroller in small spaces. My toddler loves that she can see her baby sister (see photo) during the ride :) Plus you can't beat the price! I have only loaded it once in my car and it is fairly light but my mother wouldn't be able to lift it in.

You mentioned the Cybex being loose at the top of the seat. That isn't a problem. When you want to check for a good install, you need check at the belt path (lower anchors or seat belt) for tightness, not at the top of the seat. This is pointed out in the Cybex installation video and is true for all car seat installations. As long as there is one inch or less of movement, it's good. Also, for rear facing, the straps need to be at or below baby's shoulders and the straps needed to be tightened a bit more than they were on your baby.

Being a pediatrician, what is your take on the flame retardant chemicals used in most carseats? Should it be a deal breaker for someone looking for a safe carseat for a child? The functionality of the Evenflo 360 is amazing but I'm considering the safety of the chemicals being used in the fabric products.

I recently read an article with an official statement from Cybex that said the top tether isn’t absolutely necessary if you’re using the load leg. So technically you don’t need the top tether if your using the load leg which does make it still rotatable forward and rear facing. Additionally, some people do just undo the tether each time too.

Ever Flo 360 is awesome! Key to the straps is to extend them out when taking baby out of the car seat, and set them to the side so it easy to put baby back in. When putting baby back in make sure straps are on the side extended so you have no troubles when strapping in the baby. Also Doona is amazing for travel. The car seat mode doesn’t need a base. Ima be sad when my son out grows it.

I think that piece on the Rava isn't a leg extender in rear facing mode. I believe you can raise that (well, rotate to face upwards) and it acts as a rebound prevention bar. There's a store called, "Magic Beans" that has a YT channel that reviews these seats extensively. I think all the Nuna's have that feature.

I've had the Cybex Sirona S for almost two years and it has several negatives: the recline/rotation is not smooth and very cumbersome when there's weight on the seat, the cupholder broke off easily and we didn't even get to use it! Finally, the bottom seatbelt is not adjustable as your child grows. It's really hard to imagine an older toddler sitting in it without feeling pinched. . .the review is also accurate about how wabbly it is. It doesn't matter how tight the belts are or that all the indicators in green, ugh.

I also had an evelflo convertible seat for my last one that she loved and was cheap, easy to install, and easy to get her in there properly. The forever seats are expensive. I see the appeal... one carseat for ten years sounds amazing.... but with my kids.... I need a new seat every few years.... we could never go ten years without staining thr crap out of a seat so I usually get a seat per stage and avoid the all in one's, because I know they wont last MY FAMILY ten years, so it's not worth the price for me.

Thank you for the great review. I don't know if this is a norm everywhere or if it has been mentioned previously but at least in Canada and exclusive to Toy r us, the evenflo has a gold version that does have the sensor safe included with the car seat which me and my wife ended up getting because at that point it was still less than the Cybex and had the only thing the Cybex had over the evenflo (also got it on sale which was another plus).

thanks for this video! i’m going with the baby jogger city turn as i practice extended rear facing so by the time my youngest is forward facing he will be able to get himself in his seat. so 180 is perfect for me. plus the weight and height limits. the biggest downside for me for the evenflo (newer versions with higher weight/height limits) is the fact that the crotch strap is extremely short, causing the buckle to dig into the thighs of chunkier babies/toddlers.

It seems like this wasn't much of an issue for you, but Consumer Reports highlights the Cybex Sirona was harder to install forward and rear facing with a seatbelt and seat belt locking was deemed to be less clear cut than many other convertible car seat options on the market (including the Nuna and Evenflo models you tested). CR obviously isn't the only reputable source of information, but it's handy to see what they noticed as trends good and bad features for various popular car seat models. Thanks for showing us the Evenflo model, too. We want to keep our babies safe as possible, but it's helpful to see $200 car seats can be safe, just as $500 ones can be.

I no longer trust evenflo. The straps aren’t very solid and keep coming off the metal plate in the back of the seat. The maestro anyway seems very flimsy and I worried about transporting the 3 1/2 year old I take care of anywhere. I switched and got a cybex eternis The cybex failed us too. It hurt my hands and the kid I work with looked soooo un comfy in it The crotch buckle has minimal adjustments, is hard to undo, as well as the recline lever (takes all my flipping effort just to move it one or two numbers). also the headrest is annoying!

Graco seats are great but I will say this… they are coated in a greasy fire retardant. I’ve had to wash our extend to fit many times and every time I’m disgusted. I didn’t think much of it but now that I’ve seen that car seats don’t have to be coated in unnecessary toxic chemicals I’m on the hunt for better seats. I’d go for a safe tested seat (check out side impact tests because a lot of seats manufacturers are scamming parents) and one that is green guard certified.

Thuis review is very helpful. However, you only talked about the functionability of being able to rotate the carseats. Does the evenflo last up to 10 years? Like the Graco 4-in-1? Although graco doesn't have the ability to rotate but it's worth of the money as it lasts for 10 years old or whatever comes first (age or weight). Also, having a tether attached to the back of the seat is more safe than just the base being hooked. Just my opinion. Thank you for the review.

So that is the thing--no strollers work with the Revolve360 (or any of the car seats in this video). It isn't a travel system--it's a convertible carseat only. You can't carry baby in and out in it or put it on a stroller, etc. It does do rear facing, forward facing, and turn into a booster--so it does last a long time. But if you want a travel system, you'll have to find another option.

@@TheDoctorsBjorkman We love it! We never thought we would spend so much on a car seat but it makes life so much easier. I felt that for the build quality compared to the other two brands in your video, it is worth the money. (Or they might just be so beat up in buybuybaby.) The rotating mechanism is very smooth. Installation is easy. Operation is straightforward. Seat belt is a little scratchy so baby has better wear pants.

@@Xyz-d6j1k that sounds awesome. Question-can you recline the seat while the car is moving/mid-trip? Like if baby falls asleep can you lay it back? That’s my fav feature of the 360.

@@TheDoctorsBjorkman Yes it can recline either front facing or back facing and whenever you want, but the amount of recline was not enough in my opinion. Far from the infant car seat. My baby's head nodded all the time. I had to put a small cloth on one side of her head under the head rest to support her head. She still does not look comfortable.

I used to use an evenflo with the 3 year old I babysit for. It was the maestro. It didn’t do well with the straps and they would come through and off the metal plate in back. Had me concerned about safety!!! I stopped using it and moved to cybex because it’s non rethread The cybex failed me and I’m now making my final dang switch to a nuna rava. Hopefully it’s my last switch. Cybex seat harness buckles hurt my hand trying to undo. among how hard they are to recline and how hard my hand has to push. UGH

Very interesting video. This is totally off topic, but I am wondering if you could do a video about cervical incompetence/ cerclages/ polyps on a cervix. We lost a baby at 18 weeks in 2019 and although a lot of tests were done, we never could find out why lost him. I am now pregnant again (23 weeks) and have been on mostly bedrest and progesterone because around 15 weeks I had an ultrasound that showed my cervix was 2 cm. I was not able to have a cerclage because of a polyp on my cervix. I know you can not do specific diagnosis on your videos, but I had never heard of any of this and I think it would be good to have more women know what to expect with cervical incompetence etc.. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you

Yes! This! I have had 2 premature babies due to IC, one born at 27 weeks when I was just 18 years old and my previous baby at 33 weeks at age 29... thankfully I was able to get a cerclage at 12 weeks with my new baby after dealing with the shock of an unexpected early delivery of my son 10 years ago... my maternal grandmother also had IC and received a cerclage over 50 years ago when it was still in the experimental stages.

My son has colic too. (He’s formula fed due to my milk supply not coming in). But once we switched formulas, he has been 1000 times better. (If you’re formula feeding your babe.) But they usually do outgrow it. Unfortunately, there’s really no concrete data on what causes it.

I’ve taken classes as a CPST (child passenger safety technician) & I understand they’re physicians but that doesn’t mean they are car seat certified! I noticed that also and it was a red flag (among several). I know they’re well intended but if they had consulted a certified CPST who keeps up with the ever changing industry, they would have been able to get much better advice for themselves & also while making this vid!

We love our Doona for our infant. It’s a carseat stroller dual and can be transfer to another car alone or buy another base for it. We used it up to 13 months (since she reached the height limit first of 32in) some parents use it up to 18 months and now we have the Evenflo revolve 360 gold. Best transition. Can’t wait to use the Doona again for the next baby.
