do they have expiration dates just like the car seat?

They have a serial number & manufacturer date on them. Amazon sent us one with a manufacturer date of a year old from the time of purchase.

The base i bought was manufactured in December 2013 so it is current and fits an older B-safe model. They have a customer service number of 1 (888) 427 4829 for more help.

Yes and no. All Britax products, including strollers and bases, have a manufactured date and the product is good for six years after the date. So if it was manufactured in October 2014 its good till October 2020. After that date the item is considered "retired" meaning you can still use it but its not suggested.

No expire date and they keep a very long time. I have kept them in a ziplock bag.

Yes they do, the ones I got last month expire on 11/01/2015. So they have a decent shelf life if left unopened. I refridgerate after opening.

Typically car seats are good for 5 years or need to be replaced in the case of a car accident...from what I've read :)

If you mean what will be the actual date printed on your car seat, only Graco could tell you that. But in general, car seats are only supposed to be good for 6 years before you discard it. I'm sure car seat makers love that rule. But they put when the car seat "expires" on it so you know when it's time to get a new one.

Yes, there is an expiration date. Typically they are good for a year or so. Mine did not expire until 2016.

I've never seen an expiration date on them. Probably a manufacture date. If it comes out of the tube smoothly it should be fine.

It's 6 years from the manufacture date on the actual seat. The reason for this is the foam inside the carseat breaks down after time and becomes unsafe!

Yes there is a good expiration date on the packaging. My are about 2 years out from when I purchased them.

The expiration date for all carseats, as I've heard from the stores, is 7 years. So the model we bought, Size4Me65 , will expire in autumn 2021.

Yes they do have an expiration date on them. I always use them before that date.

I am pretty sure ours showed 10 years. Since the car seats are designed to be used as boosters they should go further on the expiration date.

I just wanted to mention that car seats do have an expiration date on them, they are molded into the plastic on the back of every carseat. The dates are typically 6 years from the date of manufacture. So even though it would seem you would only have to purchase two carseats, you may in fact have to buy more because of this. This is something that so few parents know about, but it is really important. There is a video on Utube showing what can happen with an expired car seat.

Yes they do have an expiration date my current supply expires July 2016 looks like about a three year expiration on what I purchased. But these maybe ran in lots and stock available today may be in the same lot as mine with expiration date.

No, the ones I received were not beyond the expiration date. They work great.

No I don't see an expiration date. But if they are sealed and in a cool place they should last a long time.

None of mine have had an expiration date on them in the last few years. According to Neocutis, they don't expire.
