Baby's Got Gear: Combi Coccoro Review & Giveaway

 Whether you are joining me today for The Big One or..

Baby's Got Gear, we have a great giveaway for you.

  Combi USA is a fabulous company for all things baby that I have had the wonderful privilege of working with a few times now. Whether it was high chairs, strollers or infant car seats, Combi has not disappointed. Recently we were given the opportunity to try out the Coccoro car seat. Sweet Pea is growing and ready to be moved out of her infant seat, so finding a seat that is rear-facing and safe for our little one was one of our main concerns when her birthday was approaching.

When I was checking out the Coccoro seat on the Combi website I was very excited over some of the fabulous features, but when it actually arrived on my doorstep, the excitement was almost uncontainable. The seat has a lot of the features that you expect in a good car seat, but it also has some that I have never seen before & am crazy over. 

When the Coccoro arrived, Hubs installed it in his car. We typically are not able to use his car with all 3 kids, as he drives a VW golf, but we have always thought it would be nice because it is a diesel and gets about 50 mpg. With the Coccoro's compact design we were able to easily get 3 seats in the back with a decent amount of room to spare!! This was a great discovery on our part, for short trips it becomes so much more cost effective than taking my van everywhere.

The first time we went to use this seat was about a month ago as we were going to visit the Hubs family. The drive from our house to theirs is 12 hours...without kids , with 3 little ones we decided to turn the trip into a 3 day fun filled journey. We made a lot of fun stops along the way, but the time in the car was still lengthy. Sweet Pea was very cozy in the Coccoro seat, she slept very well and was happy-ish while she was awake. I say "ish", because well she just isn't the happiest baby when she is in the car. I can't expect a car seat to do wonders, but I was thrilled that she was able to sleep so well in it. 

We have been using the Coccoro rear facing exclusively now for over a month and I love everything about it. The Combi Tru-Safe® Side Impact Protection offers deep side walls and a layer of energy-absorbing foam to distribute crash energy away from your child's head, neck & spine. The seat also includes a removable insert that provides proper positioning and comfort for little one's, we still use the insert with Sweet Pea and I absolutely love the extra support if offers her. 

this session was for pictures exclusively, we were not moving

Another great feature of the car seat, is that the cover and harness pads are completely removable and machine washable. When we made our long road trip a food pouch of pureed blueberries spilled all over the seat! I was devastated! First, our pretty key lime seat was now a hot mess....second , I had not yet taken all of my pictures for this review. A few hours later we made a stop where there was a washing machine available so Hubs was kind enough to remove the cover and we threw it in the wash. It came out looking brand new!! I was so relieved, and Hubs said it really couldn't of been easier to remove and put back on.

The Coccoro seat is available in 5 colors and is perfect for any little one who weighs between 3 & 40lbs. The Coccoro retails for $239.99 , you can find this product and more by Combi right on their website and then use their store locator tab to either shop online or find a location near you.
