I am expecting my first baby next month (October 2025). When I began researching car seats safety was my absolute top priority. The babyark car seat is UNMATCHED when it comes to safety features. I look forward to actually putting my babyark to use next month with the peace of mind that my baby will be as safe as possible.
I have one for my car, and my wife had a pretty expensive seat in her car from a very popular, "leading" brand. while this seat is substantially more expensive than others, it is truly better in every way I can think of. First and foremost, it looks and feels more protective. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why the load leg is not a universal thing for convertible seats as it basically is for infant seats. This seems like it should just be a no-brainer safety feature. The fact that you have the load leg, LATCH attachments, seatbelt passthrough and anti-rebound bar, protective egg-shaped shell, the most robust side impact protection of any seat, and the highest rear-facing body weight, make this the safest seat available. The next most important thing is that it is definitely way more comfortable for our daughter than our other seat, per her report. The straps and the padding around the straps are never twisted and the pads are always in exactly the correct spot. The seat that has been in my wife's car is expensive and it is such a disappointing pain dealing with the twisted straps; for that much money, the straps and strap pads shouldn't be getting twisted--the BabyArk straps and pads don't. It is SO much easier to clean and take off/put on the seat cover; just zip off/on. And we have a spare seat cover for roadtrips for expected unexpected occurrences. There are WAY WAY less crevices for food to fall into compared to our other seat. Our daughter actually sleeps in the BabyArk for long periods of time, unlike the other seat or even her infant seat. And her travel milk cup actually fits in this cupholder, unlike the useless cupholder on the other seat, because the BabyArk one has a larger diameter to accommodate little kids' travel cups that have a larger diameter...Lastly, due to my work needs, and due to the fact that I park outside on a West-facing driveway that gets super hot, I frequently need to remove the seat and sometimes the base and keep them in the garage. It is just so easy to take this seat and base out of the car and reinstall them compared to most other seats that have a pretty involved, finicky and time-consuming process. This was a major factor in my BabyArk purchase. A perfect install is so straightforward and reproducible and takes like a minute. All of the other above reasons have just addd up so that we now got a second one for my wife's car. We hemmed and hawed about getting a second due to the price, but we also live in a natural disaster prone area and have had to evacuate on short notice and did not want to ever have the scenario where the one car seat was in a car that was not at home. It is expensive and not within reach for everyone, and it is big and may not comfortably fit in a small vehicle (due to front passenger seat positioning requirements). If you have the means and it will fit in your vehicle, you will absolutely not be disappointed. This seat really is that much better than everything else. They just thought of everything.
Had a bit of a rocky start with the app where it wouldn't pair, but they fixed the bug the next day. The seat was really easy to set up, even app-less! and it's nice to know I'd get a ding if she learns how to unclick the harness while driving.
It was very simple to install and baby seems so comfortable in his new car seat! It's great that it's so secure, the seat doesn't budge. I only didn't give five stars because it's pretty pricey and the leg part of the seat base is just a little difficult to get fully stable.
This car seat is great and the kids love it
It took me 3 minutes to install following easy instructions.
I love my Baby Ark! I would not trust my baby in another car seat! The absolute best! She’s sleeps so good in her Baby Ark! If you’re debating… DONT! Just buy it!!!
Our 4 month old loves the babyark car seat! As soon as we switched her to the convertible car seat we have noticed she’s significantly more calm and comfortable in the car. She also easily falls asleep now which is perfect for longer car rides. Would happily recommend to other parents!
I ordered two classic car seats, and unfortunately they were left on the curb about 80 yards from my house instead of being delivered to my house. When I contacted customer service, they blew me off, not offering so much as an apology. The product itself is very good, but the whole experience has definitely cooled my feelings about the company.
Perfect for two-car one-seat solution. Basically a convertible car seat that shares the convenience of an infant car seat with base.
The material’s texture and look definitely feels above $500 class seats. Hard to say if it’s worth $800 or not.
For the price it costs, I expected better from Babyark. After unpacking I noticed some markings on the car seat. The seat itself is loose and rocks a bit when attached to the base - partially due to its big size and weight. The car seat rattles when driving without a baby from the release handle. Safety stickers are poorly put on.
We've had the Babyark for a few weeks now for our 15.5 month old son. We previously used the Clek Liing infant carseat and loved its load leg and steel reinforced base feature almost no convertible carseat in the US offers, and thats what drove us to Babyark primareily.
While the Liing was highly rated for safety, our som hated it, he'd scream every time we strapped him in. Comfort was another big reason we chose this car seat. The crying has reduced entirely, and we have done several 1 hour driving without issues, he no longer arches his back when getting in.
The safety features of Babyark also met our high expectations. Worth to mention, he does bite the chest clip as mentioned in other reviews and sometimes he unbuckles it but hasn't caused any issues with unnecessary alerts in the app. Installation was easy.
We plan to travel with it using our Cleek Liing travel bag (fits well in it and it's a padded bag) as a checked luggage, but this isn't a travel system, once you install it you keep it in the car for the duration of your trip. We have it currently installed behind the passenger seat in our 2021 Subaru Crosstrek, and front space is not at all tight, the opposite this freed up more space in the front than our infant car seat.
I feel like my baby is SAFE which is my #1 priority
So far so good. Easy install. Heavy and seems like quality material! customer service has been very responsive. Thank you!
Love the car seat. And more importantly, our child loves it
As a new mom, this is my first purchase of a convertible car seat. To say it has exceeded my expectations is an understatement! Safety and comfort were my top priorities when choosing a car seat that my baby would be using for years to come. This one delivers! The installation process is a breeze! And loving the car seat from car to car is SO easy.
Great product, our son loves it. He was super fussy in the previous car seat
Peace of mind every time we get in the car to go somewhere. Customer service is amazing and so incredibly helpful.
Best seat ever! Bought after a lot of research and so happy I went with babyark! The safety is next level, easy to install and my 17m old has never been happier to ride!
Excited to install and use for our newcomer!
The installation process was something that Dad's dream of. Looks great in our new car too!
