What is the difference between this car seat, Chicco KeyFit 30 MAGIC Infant and the Chicco KeyFit 30 Infant?

The major difference is in the canopy. The magic model has a fantastic canopy that almost completely covers the baby. It has a zip feature that opens up to a mesh material to allow air to circulate. It also has a different infant insert than the other chicco models. Another thing worth noting is that when the inserts are removed there is no ribbing on the seat fabric. Many review on the regular chicco model complain about this ribbing digging into a baby's head and causing a mark. Personally, I chose chicco because of its high safety ratings and ease of use which you will get with either model, but the magic had more of the features I was looking for. We've been using the magic for 5.5 months now and love it! I'd highly recommend it, especially along with the chicco caddy stroller frame!

The "magic series" is premium fabrics and it has a few other bonuses, I have this car seat and we love it. The fabric is much higher quality and looks very nice. The magic series is the higher end chicco product line.

I believe Graphica is just referring to the pattern/material. The only difference I have seen between the two (we had the Cubes pattern of the KeyFit from 2012 for our first daughter) is that the Graphica has the zip-on cover and a slightly larger sun shield/hood. Both seats are very easy to install and snap in and out of the stroller. You can't go wrong.

The Nextfit seat is not meant to be removed from the car. That is a car seat, not an infant carrier. The KEYfit does fit!

I would think so. I have a chicco keyfit 30, but the cover has elastic on the edge so it's expandable....I would think the Graco carseat would be comparable in size to the chicco and that it would work for both. In fact, I would be shocked if it didn't fit it. I really loved this for keeping sunlight out and the bugs off!

Not sure if this is still useful for you, but here is how to use the 1305TW with the Chicco Keyfit car seats: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khgDcaOHXOI

Oh that's a good question. I bought it for the Chicco Key Fit 30 and it did not work. The one I had the best luck with was Phil&Teds Car Seat Adapter For Chicco Keyfit To Classic/ Explorer/ Navigator/ Dot/ S4 (Discontinued by Manufacturer) It works VERY well. Let's just say one time the stroller (with baby in car seat) got away from me for a second and that puppy was so secure it could have been bad. Good luck!

Great question! One I wish I would have looked into before buying this system. This system is for babies up to 22 pounds. The Keyfit 30 will go up to 30! Wish I would have known that before buying.

We bought this model and the Chicco Keyfit 30 carseat and could not find any way for them to fit securely, even after watching the video posted in the above comment. There just simply isn't enough room for both carseats to fit securely. I also found the instruction manual for the 1305TW and if you scroll down to Bar Location Chart Chicco is not even on the list.The manual: http://www.babytrend.com/pdf/1305TW_EN_0608c.pdf

Baby Trend's website says that it will work with the chicco keyfit and keyfit 30. Based on that information we bought this stroller, and just got two keyfit 30 carseats yesterday. Unfortunately, contrary to the baby trend's website, they DO NOT fit. I cannot find any way to make them secure in this stroller. I have been searching the internet to find out what happened. It turns out that people have used the 1304TW model with chicco's carseats. I believe that is an older model. The 1305TW, which is listed here on amazon and at most other places on the internet, will not work with chiccos. I'm very frustrated with BabyTrend's website. They should not claim compatibility if only their older models which are no longer available are compatible.

No, this seat is bulky and heavy. It is meant to stay in the car. You are thinking of an infant car seat (like the chicco keyfit 30). The infant seat is useful for the baby's first 6-12 months or so (because you can snap it in and out of the car and into a stroller). After the infant is around 6-12 months, you'll switch to a convertible car seat like this one. If you don't want to buy two separate seats, you can skip the infant seat (this convertible seat accommodates infants and toddlers--but you need to buy the version with "tiny fit"--it's a separate Amazon listing and cost about fifty dollars more) but you lose the option of toting the baby around in his seat.

I don't think it is comparable. It is a very nice car seat however, as it adapts from an infant seat to a toddler seat. A great value.

I used it with the Chicco Keyfit 30 (infant seat). The bag fit both the carseat and base, but it was a tight squeeze.

The Chicco Key Fit 30 carseats DO FIT. I use mine all the time with two of these car seats. They are very secure as well. I suggest watching the you tube video for help.TIP: Be sure the first seat is completely strapped in before inserting the second one. Seat the car seat closest to you first.

I bought the double belly bar and my Chicco key fit 30 or whatever it's called fits in if you take the sun shade off of the one side you put the seat on. It actually even clicks into place where you have to pull the lever to release. I don't know how the actual car seat adapter works, if it's anything like the one for the BJ Summit XT stroller it sucks lol.
