Side by Side Comparison of: Disney vs Cudlie vs Amazon

1/3 the price of other car seats i have seen, kids loving the mini mouse theme, 3 car anchor straps plus room for seat belt for security, and all straps are easily adjustable

simply adorable and perfect for my 1 year old granddaughter. It was pretty easy to assemble and install thanks to the directions. I love the cup holders for her sippy cup! It has several adjustments for the seatbelt as the baby grows. It's good for up to 40 lbs. Right now, little Avery is a solid 20 lbs. so I imagine I can get another 2 years or so out of it before we have to go to a bigger seat. It doesn't lean back as much as the beginner carseats, it props them up a little so Avery is happy about that. She likes to look out the window and doesn't want to miss anything. It's also comfortable enough for her to snooze in :)

I bought this seat largely due to the good reviews. I'm really glad I did. This seat was a breeze to install and is lightweight. My son is 14 months old and 26 lbs, we still rear face. I installed this seat in my husbands car which is a 2 door Camaro and it installed correctly without needing to use a rolled up towel. I really wanted a smaller seat because the other seat we have caused his passenger seat to be pushed all the way forward and it wouldn't lock into place. With this car seat we didn't have that problem. I plan on using it after he's 2 and we turn him around to forward facing. LOVE that it's Mickey Mouse and the price is also affordable.

I bought this seat when I saw it on sale and I couldn't be happier with it. The seat is well cushioned and material is easy to clean. It also doesn't take up as much space as the previous rear facing seat that we used. The only thing I could mark down for is that it is a tiny bit wider than I was expecting but I didn't feel like it was that big of an issue as it is no wider than any other car seat we have used. The straps are easy to adjust, it is cute and sleek, and it is very easy to get my son in and out which was a struggle with our previous seat. All around very nice product.

I just bought this for my daughter and she loves it! Installing is easy, the Instructions in the booklet were very easy to follow and very helpful. I get so nervous when installing a car seat because even the smallest mistake can be life threatening in an accident. This actually is a much Hotter pink in person and I was so excited! Kind of wish the ear/bow pillow went up a little higher because my daughter is a little tall for it even on the highest inserts but thats not what really matters.Great Car seat and all my friends are Jealous especially my niece :) would recommend to anyone with a child that love Minnie!

Daughter loved it, mommy and daddy were happy with this purchase!!!

Awesome car seat. I bought it for traveling (lightweight) and as a back up. My only negatives would be 1. I don't think it really goes up to 40" height. My daughter is 36" and the straps are already at her shoulders. Since she faces forward, this seat will not last much longer for us :( 2. The straps do not glide well and they are definitely not long enough - it's really a tight squeeze everytime she gets in/out of the seat. Other than that though I love it. Great price. Easy to install. My daughter loves it too.

We bought this for my mom's car for when she watched our daughter. It's cute and lightweight, and easy to get her in and out. Installing the seat took more time and effort than installing our Britax, but at a fraction of the cost it is easy to overlook that.I wouldn't recommend this for people though who plan to take the seat in and out of their car often.

It is safe, it's just not as strong and heavy as the big luxury car-seats that are simply a luxury. Listen folks, if you think you have to buy a high end car-seat and that is the only thing that will keep your child safe, well then you are letting Big Baby Business take advantage of you. You can buy this cheap sucker that will do it's job, or you can buy a big, fat, heavy, overpriced car seat with padding and luxury meant for the Queen of England. Your choice. :)

The seat is really nice and while some people complain that the ears don't stay put it's because they don't run the tabs to the back of the seat. My only complaint is that shortly after using the seat my daughter started developing a rash on the side of her neck which initially we thought it was due to milk drying there causing the rash. Even making sure that we cleaned her neck after every feeding the rash continued. It was not until we received the seat belt softeners that the rash went away. Wish the seat had come with softeners instead of pawning this issue on the consumer.

The seat is great. My 22 month old loves it. One thing to note, if you have the straps in the highest position, you cannot attach the Mickey shaped pillow. They would both be using the same openings and the pillow would impede the straps. I plan to attach it with Velcro or something similar. I wasn't thrilled with the packaging it arrived in. It was in the box you would get if you purchased in a store, which has pictures and description all the way around the box. It was delivered to my home and left on the front porch in the middle of the day like this. I would have preferred a plain box.

For the price this is a nice car seat. This was purchased for the grandparents vehicle out of town, so it will not be used regularly. I would not purchase this car seat for everyday use. It does not have a recline adjustment for forward facing or rear facing. Basically the base has two different sitting positions, one for forward facing and one for rear facing. The forward facing position sits in an upright position and the rear facing tilted back which is normally ideal though the degree which it is tilted is more for an infant than our 2 year old. With that being said, she did seem to be comfortable in the car seat, especially when sleeping. It does require a lot of backseat room when in the rear position. I cannot speak for the safety if involved in a crash for this car seat though it seems to be very similar in terms of restraint as other like car seats.

Lightweight but bulky. Crotch buckle isn't easy to open. Head rest is low and uncomfortable for taller kids. Has a strong recline in FF mode. Worth it for the money but not the best car seat on the market.

Used this carseat for more than a year. The only great thing was the cupholders and its lightweight. There was barely any padding so I feel like it was uncomfortable for my toddler.

It's adorable, but there are a few things about it that I don't like. My daughter is 18 months and the minnie head pillow goes over the straps. When I buckle her in I have to push the bottom of the pillow up and try to keep it behind her head. I may try to just saftey pin it up higher and out of the way, but it's not idea. It's difficult to get my daughter in over the high sides. The straps are easy to loosen and tighten. It's not the most padded car seat, so it's probably not incredibly comfortable, but it gets the job done.

This seat is good for the price, and my daughter is in love with the Minnie Mouse design. It's kind of hard to install though, and does take up a good amount of space. I have mine on the passenger side backseat, and anyone sitting shotgun in my Toyota Matrix hatchback won't get too much leg room. It took me a lot to get it in the car to where I felt comfortable about it not sliding all over the place. And the installation instructions are pretty confusing. Also, the Minnie ears don't attach if your child needs the straps on the last two notches. I just safety pinned them on though, and that seemed to work. Lots of room to sit in it though, my daughter seems comfy in it. I do dread having to take it out at some point to install in another car...

I returned the item because I felt like a bad parent as the padding is extremely thing and the chest buckle is very cheap. It's so darn adorable, but if your child needs the harness at the highest length, then you can't use the Minnie Mouse pillow, which is pretty lame. This chair gets very good reviews, but I decided to return it (before even using it) and went with a Britax Click-Tight model.

I was skeptical about ordering a car seat online not having seen it in person before and for good reason. I don't think this car seat offers much comfort for the baby since the padding is very minimal. It feels kind of cheesy but for us it's just our back up car seat. We have an Evenflo Platinum series so naturally you can't really compare the two, but it serves it's purpose for us and the little Mickey ears are a cute feature

This seat is intended for babies and small small small toddlers. My daughter is just over two years old, about 36" tall and she does not fit safely in this seat. The chest straps should come out of the seat back above the shoulders, but at the highest level, they are 2" below her shoulders. Additionally, the carseat did not come with a fastening strap to latch onto the metal clips in my rear seats (you have to loop your car seatbelt through the carseat) which is a less secure method of installation.

My first impression of this seat was good. It looked adorable and my 12 month old seemed comfortable. Now that I've used this for 3 months my opinion of the seat has changed. The seat is somewhat flimsy. I don't know how comfortable the seat will be for her as she grows since the straps are close to the biggest setting. (She's 19lbs rear facing). Lastly I noticed the stitching is coming out on the seat. I wish I spent more money and bought a nicer seat.

Out of the box this cute carseat is ready to go...however, BEWARE that once your child is about a year old the Minnie ears are stuck behind their head/neck rather than above. The picture is misleading bc the ear pillow only goes as high as the top shoulder harness slat and not all the way up as shown. It then needs to be removed all together so only cute for maybe up to first year. We are returning this seat because (1) the chest clip is very hard to operate...click open/closed and is very wide and thin. It also doesn't sit comfortably against my 16mo's chest. (2) There is no added side-impact foam around the top-sides of the seat. The sides of the seat are mearly constructed of thin moveable plastic with the seat-cover over them. We want the peace of mind of a seat that feels a bit more safe for our little one to ride in and grow with.I'm sure this meets all required safety guidelines to be sold in US but we've owned many carseats (as this is baby number 3) and this was the poorest-made seat we've ever purchased. It is going back and we'll pay a little more for a higher quality carseat.

I had this for a few months. Felt too light and flimsy to be safe. Very uncomfortable- no padding at all. Got rid of it and bought another brand.Also, the reason I got it was for the Minnie decal. But the "pillow" doesn't stay up in that position. It falls to the bottom of the chair constantly.

PROS:CuteLightweightLasts a long timeCONS:Hard to install, tightening the harness that hooks it to the car seat is insanely difficult, I don't know if it's my car or the strap just being cheap material. But I noticed the buckle straps for baby are also difficult to tighten evenlyMini pillow doesn't stay onNot much paddingSmaller babies will need a neck support for sleeping on longer trips.I bought this because it was cute and affordable but I'm not impressed. It's hard to install and I don't know if I feel like its the safest car seat out there. I should have returned it, but it will do until I can get a better one. Cheap price = cheap product in this case.

Not pleased with this car seat! It's very hard and won't last as long as they advertise. My 20 month old who is short and only 22lbs was on the highest notch and only had a little more loosening to go before she would outgrow the harness part. The Minnie headrest got in the way of the straps if it was secured through the strap slits. I'm returning this car seat and getting another one of better quality. I was excited about the Minnie design and that was the only thing about this car seat I liked. Just not for us but when reading the reviews before buying this car seat lots of people were pleased with it so maybe it was just me. I prefer more comfort and longer lasting especially since my daughter hates riding in the car. That's why I wanted the Minnie design because she loves Minnie! Amazon was great about the return though!

Found a break in this car seat, and it's never been in a wreck or anything, makes me wonder is it even safe for my granddaughter, very displeased

It's a cute car seat, but it definitely doesn't fit a child as described. The item description states that a forward facing child can fit up to 40 lbs and 43 inches. We could not even buckle this on my 32 lbs, 40 inch tall daughter and the straps were well below her shoulders. After I received it I checked out some of the negative comments and this seems to be a common theme. This is frustrating as now we have to return the package and my daughter is so upset because she thought she was getting a Minnie Mouse seat; not to mention totally unsafe.

This carseat is horrible. If you bought it for a front facing seat, it might still work for you. However if you want it for a rear facing for your child to grow with DO NOT GET THIS ONE. I didn't even attempt to install it. The angle it sits your child in is a VERY deep V and positioned my daughters legs level with her head.

I have the same issue as most of others here. My girl 40 inch and 32 lb has difficulties to fit into this car seat. Now, we are stuck on whether to jump to booster seat early or to buy another one. I wish I had listened the critical reviews here.

Was really hoping to like this seat. Its so cute! A few things that were deal killers for me and made me send it back. 1. The ears when secured properly would push down in the shoulder straps. Not only was that uncomfortable for my babe but could not have been safe. 2. The angle of this seat when installed forward facing is weird. It doesn't fit right in the angle of the seat and makes it lean back way to far. 3. The buckle between the legs is too short and makes it hard to click in. I pinched my babes legs a couple of times trying to get it secure. Unless she was wearing thin leggings it was way too hard to get her buckled in. 4. The sides of the seat were way too high so when lifting my babe into the seat I would have to lift her so high that she bonk her head on the door frame. She would practically have to lie down flat so I could lift her over the sides of the seat to get her in without bumping.I really wanted to like this seat. Super cute and my daughter loved it but way too many cons to keep

I love the design. The problem is I am on my second one of these because a piece on the back that the top strap hooks up to broke twice. At this point it's not even worth it to return again. If I were to get in a accident it would fly forward because it's not hooked up, the plastic is poorly made!!
