We bought this car seat to go with the Pliko P3 Pramette thinking that M&P were a good company & could be trusted. WRONG!! This car seat is DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS as it is FAR TOO UPRIGHT for a newborn. No matter how tight the straps are done up, our baby daugter's head slumped downwards & sidewards to the extent that her head was trapped under the SIP headrest! I had to stop on numerous occasions due as I was afrais she could not breathe I am a regular poster on the Bounty forum and to date am aware of 20 other people who have bought this seat with the same problem. M&P customer services are terrible - we have now changed to a Graco seat that is much ... Read the complete review

I brought the primo viaggio for my newborn in order to use straight from the hospital. I was very dissapointed with this product,the upright seat forces your baby's head to jutt forwards and the side padding is useless. I would say that this seat is totally unsuitable for a newborn or young baby with little head control and whilst driving you are worrying as to the position your baby's head has fallen in to. i would say do not buy this ...

The Primo Viaggio car seat is a rear facing group 0+ car seat meaning it is suitable for babies from birth to 13kg (or till they are about 12-15 months). I bought mine as part of a travel system but to buy separately they are approximately £90 from various retailers as well as Mamas and Papas stores obviously. The seat itself is well padded as are the deep sides. As well as this padding the Primo Viaggio comes with a head hugger and extra optional chest and buckle pads. If you buy this as part of the Mamas and Papas Freestyler Completo Travel System you also get a Completo Comfort Pad which you can use as even more comfy padding in the Primo Viaggio. I did find ...

This car sear is yet another piece of inherited baby equipment which we were given by my sister-in-law when she found out that Baby Frank was on the way. Sometimes, being the poor relations really pays off! General safety advice recommends not using second hand car seats because they may have have invisible faults, but because we knew the history of this car seat, we know that it has not sustained any damage. The Primo Viaggio car seat has been around for sometime, and has undergone a few makeovers in its time, though still retains the black, simple, classic look which I really like. It is in the group 0 plus and is suitable for birth to 12-15 months (or birth ... Read the complete review

i bought the mamas and papas viaggio car seat when i was pregnant with my first baby, now 4 years ago. as i had bought the mamas and papas freestyler and this car seat will fit into it - on the understandong that it was easy and convienient and also more comfortable for the baby to be in the buggy this way as it is quite a big pushchair. The carseat is from newborn up till 13kg (a year old). Looked great and i couldnt wait to use it! The first thing i started to notice was that it sits the baby very upright... although it came with a head hugger babys head still slouched a little. It would go into the base in the car, sometimes you have to wiggle it bit ... Read the complete review
