Overview

Highlights

  • Includes rear-facing infant car seat & base
  • Made with 100% recycled fabric
  • 180° seat rotation
  • Load leg and anti-rebound bar for added stability

Description

The Kindred Collection is designed with EcoCare fabric, a premium 100% recycled fabric made from plastic bottles. The yarn produced is soft, comfortable and breathable. Like all Maxi-Cosi products, PureCosi fabrics are made without wool or added fire-retardant treatment, which is better for little ones and the planet.

This popular lightweight rotating infant car seat features FlexiSpin 180° seat rotation technology. This makes getting little ones in and out of the car seat easier while reducing back strain.

The infant car seat also features TensionFix which solves the common installation problem of loose vehicle belt tension. A red-to-green indicator on the seat’s base shows you when the belt has tension.

You also don’t need to rethread the harness when baby grows, as the headrest and harness can be adjusted at the same time with one hand. Five recline positions help ensure a secure fit during installation.

The canopy design zips out to extend, providing full-coverage sun protection and privacy for little ones. Easy-to-use magnets secure the canopy to the car seat and won’t wake a sleeping baby.

For two-car families, you can get a second base (sold separately).

Super lightweight
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I enjoyed using the Maxi-Cosi Peri 180° Rotating Infant Car Seat. I like how lightweight the car seat is and appreciate the rotating function for easily getting my baby in and out of the car. The rotating feature is a smart design because it is useful for making adjustments to my baby’s seat straps or doing a quick clean without having to take her out of the car seat since she can face me while I am standing at the car door. Also, I find it easier to not have to bend my arm or awkwardly clip in

Great Safety Features
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I've been using the Maxi-Cosi Peri Rotating Infant seat from their Kindred collection. The most important aspects for me were safety, flame-retardant free and lightweight. This seat goes above and beyond for all of those thingsQ Safety: red/green indicator for install as well as step by step, numbered, east to read instructions on the base. There are only a few infant seats on the market that boast flame retardant free, and this is one of them! Lastly, not only is this seat lightweight, but the

I received the car seat through the Stellar Product Testing Panel! Regardless of receiving it as a panel test, The Maxi-Cosi Peri 180° Rotating Infant Car Seat is a true standout! From the moment we unboxed it, we were impressed by its sleek, modern design and high-quality, flame-retardant free materials. The 180° FlexiSpin rotation feature is a game-changer, making it incredibly easy to get your little one in and out of the seat—especially helpful for parents with back issues or in tight

Great Convenience with Minor Stability Concerns
This review was collected as part of a promotion
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant item to try!

After using the Maxi-Cosi Peri™ 180° Rotating Infant Car Seat for a few days, I have a mix of positive impressions and some concerns.

First, I really appreciate the 180° rotation feature—it makes getting my little one in and out of the car so much easier. The magnetic chest clip is another standout feature, as it simplifies securing my baby without the usual hassle of traditional clips.

I wanted to love it
This review was collected as part of a promotion
We received this infant item to review from Stellar Product Testing Panel. We didn’t love it, but it certainly has some features worth boasting. First, it was VERY simple to install. It was so simple, that we even managed to get it installed in just a few minutes before leaving for our work day. The red/green install guide in the base was helpful and made the installation so easy to understand. Aside from the infant insert (which feels cheap and flimsy), the car seat itself was also easy to

Five star function four star quality
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I love to try out new baby products and was so happy to receive this infant car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for a review. I was not impressed with this car seat’s quality and feel at first, but while using it, some of the features really won me over. At the end of the day, there are still a few aspects that I would like to see in higher quality or better designed, but if you want a classy looking rotating infant seat with convenient installation, this seat will do it

Love this car seat
This review was collected as part of a promotion
The first time we used this car seat, I said to my husband, “This really feels like a luxury car seat.” It feels sturdy, comfortable, and like it’s made with high-quality materials. It was very easy to install! The car seat we used previously had a bubble indicator to show if it was installed correctly, but I was always confused on if the bubble had to be in a certain place. With this car seat, there’s a simple red/green indicator to show it’s installed right - no guessing game and so much

High Value Quality Car Seat
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This is a great car seat! I was impressed right when I opened it - the packaging is made of sturdy, quality materials, as is the car seat itself. The base is a bit heavy and wide, but the car seat itself is lightweight and has really nice fabric on the seat parts and hood. I tested the weight against my other infant car seat, and the Peri was lighter.

The Peri has unique buckles that are magnetic at the chest, and they were easy to buckle my baby into. I felt very safe putting my son in

Beautiful and convenient rotating infant seat
This review was collected as part of a promotion
First of all - this car seat is gorgeous! I immediately fell in love with the lux fabric. From the quilted detailing to the super soft cushion insert, it has such a high quality look and feel!
I also love how easy it is to carry, amazingly light weight and comfortable to lift and hold. It’s compact and doesn’t take up much space in the car, which is a huge win as space is now at a premium after having our second baby recently! The buckle is extremely easy and convenient, and the rotation
