I love this car seat (I have it in Pois Grey). It is one of the safest car seats on the market.
Yes it is heavy - but I don't have a problem lugging it to and from the house/car. And I love how well it works with my Peg Perego Bokk Completo stroller.
I really regret buying this car seat. Yes, it's devastatingly good-looking. Yes, it's one of the top rated for safety. Yes, the bright red geranium colour goes great with baby's skin tone AND it was made by good looking Italians but no, I am not happy with this purchase. It's so freaking heavy, I can barely drag my son in it. I have bumped him in it more times than I can count trying to carry him from the house to the car. In fact, it is one of the heaviest car seats on the market - something I wish I would've taken note of before buying it. My baby is almost 16 pounds and between that and the weight of this seat, I feel like I'm hauling about 50lbs worth.
Another complaint is the new adaptor that you buy for this if you have an Uppababy stroller. I'm not sure who to blame for this one. I'm pretty sure it's Uppababy, but it's something you need to consider if you want to put these two together. the new adapter is extremely cheap and flimsy. Mine has already broken twice in 3 months. Thankfully, Uppababy was kind enough to send me one of their older versions that is MUCH better and works like a dream. A friend of mine with the same stroller purchased the Graco car seat, which is considerably lighter and has a better adapter for Uppababy. She definitely made the better purchase.
