Our Review of the Combi Coccoro convertible car seat
Designed by a mom with a super small car, the Combi Coccoro Convertible Car Seat features big safety in a compact package. The revolutionary design from Combi fits in even smaller, more fuel efficient cars. At 11 lbs, the Coccoro is easy to lift and likewise easy to install. Add in an aesthetically-pleasing design, and you've got one great convertible car seat for kids 5 - 33 lbs (rear-facing) and 20 - 40 lbs (forward-facing).
Standout Features:
- Compact design - small enough to fit three across in even subcompact cars!
- Removable Mommy's Lap insert provides the proper angle for smaller children in the rear-facing position
- EPS foam provides Tru-Safe Side Impact Protection
- Lightweight for easy maneuvering by mom and dad
Benefits for You: Aside from looking mighty good in any car, the Coccoro fits three across in most cars, even smaller vehicles. Weighing just 11 lbs, the Coccoro baby car seat takes little effort to maneuver into your car or move between vehicles. The Coccoro's cover lifts off in just a few seconds and it is hand washable for easy clean up.
Installation: Install the Coccoro using either your vehicle's seat belts or LATCH. Rear-facing and forward-facing lock offs provide a tight installation. Color coded belt pathways make it easy to know which pathways are for rear-facing installation and which are for forward-facing installation. An indicator line helps you get the correct angle for rear-facing installation.
Green and red indicators let you now that you've buckled the 5-point harness properly. Green means go, red means stop and check your work. Shoulder belt retainers hold the harness open, making it easier to take baby in and out of the car seat.
The Coccoro fits well in small cars. The EliteCarSeats.com team installed the Coccoro convertible car seat in a small hatchback and found that the seat left plenty of room for additional car seats and passengers.
Benefits for Baby: One word comes to mind when examining the Coccoro's comfort features: squishy. The padding envelops baby in soft comfort for happier car rides while the soft and breathable mesh material keeps your passenger comfy. The Mother's Lap provides cushion and angles infants properly for safe travel.
The thick buckle padding and shoulder harness pads keep the 5-point harness from becoming bothersome to your little one. The 4 shoulder harness heights accommodate growth spurts.
The Coccoro Convertible Car Seat accommodates infants rear facing from 5 to 33 lbs and forward facing from 20 to 40 lbs.
Safety:
- 5-point harness
- Certified for use in aircraft
- Meets or exceeds FMVSS Standard 213
Comparison: The Maxi Cosi Priori Convertible Car Seat looks just as cool as the Combi Coccoro and comes with many of the same essential features. In contrast to the Coccoro, the Priori accommodates rear-facing infants up to 35 lbs instead of 33 lbs like the Coccoro. The Coccoro is also be more likely to fit in smaller vehicles rear-facing.
Another great convertible car seat option, The First Years TrueFit features a removable headrest for a more universal fit when installed rear-facing. The TrueFit also features a forward-facing harness weight limit of 65 lbs, allowing your child to remain in a 5-point harness longer.
Make transporting your Coccoro even easier with the Coccoro Travel Bag. This bag comes equipped with shoulder straps.

Combi Coccoro convertible car seat Reviews
Could have been perfect
Pros: It's light and a breeze to carry. Makes traveling much easier. Particularly with latch, transferring between vehicles is a lot easier than most. It takes a lot to twist the straps. The fabric is holding up well after 6 months of (ab)use. I was able to get a good, tight RF fit in a Saturn (bucket seats & all). The lack of base makes it a bit more challenging to get the angle right, but definitely doable. In center position, the other two seats are actually still usable. In non-center position, there are a good couple of inches between the door and the seat, which gives me a little extra peace of mind about SIP. The shoulder straps tighten and release in tandem, making it easy to get DD in and out. The "one pull" to tighten claim is an overstatement, but it's still easier than most. I've also found it fits perfectly into a lightweight stroller and is easy to secure with a ratcheting tie down strap thanks to the integrated belt paths. Best. Travel System. Ever.
Cons: the designer of the "puzzle" buckle should be fired. Really, "puzzle" doesn't belong in the same sentence as "car seat." You do get used to it, but on the rare occasion I buckle DD into a different seat I'm amazed at how much easier it is to secure a squirmy toddler when you don't have to keep those little tabs perfectly aligned. Extended RF'ing can be a challenge: the smaller footprint means feet start hitting the seat back sooner. DD took to hooking her arms over the back of the Coccoro and planting her feet into the Saturn seat back, making it rather difficult to wrestle her into position.
I can't seem to get a good fit FF. No lower tethers in the car, so we used the seatbelt and top tether. It seems secure on installation, but within a few days (I think as a result of pulling up on the harness strap) it gets really loose. Annoying to have to constantly re-install, and doesn't make me feel good about what would happen in a crash. Hopefully with a little more practice, and maybe a call to Combi I can get that resolved.
Thank goodness

Cute and comfy
