Anyone notice their child sweating more or if the seat fabric is breathable? We have the B-Agile infant seat and it is not breathable at all.

Yes it's not breathable. My baby sweats also. We try to keep him light on clothes while in seat.

We live in Baltimore and it get's pretty steamy here, I have never noticed the fabric of this carseat being any warmer than usual. As for breathable, she's not a sweaty mess when we take her out. I never really thought about it. I think it's fine

I honestly haven't gotten the chance to use it that much yet... My baby just turned 6 months, but from the few times I have used it I left the infant insert in it (which comes with the seat) and it is a fleece like material and he did sweat! (It was summer time and hot out so I kind of expected it) but when I felt the material the first thing that ran across my mind is if he was going to be too hot sitting on it. The seats material is supposed to be better and more breathable then the G2 I just haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet. But I think it will be fine! Wish I could help more!

We live in Louisiana where temps top 100 degrees in the summer, and we haven't had any problems with it. The only issue the seat has, in general, is that the straps don't adjust very tight, so if your little one is on the smaller side like our son, you might have the same issue. We're keeping it safety pinned in the meantime until he grows into it, which has worked just fine for us.

Not in our experience. It's no hotter than the basic level of heat associated with a car seat (which, actually, is not inconsiderable. It's not like they are designed to allow airflow.). The piddle pad has a soft fabric on the top, so we've never had her get more sweaty on the piddle pad part than anywhere else in the carseat.

The material is thick and not very breathable. I would not recomend on hot climates, as baby is close to skin and your own body temp might make it too hot.

Yes, it's pretty breathable. The terry cloth top creates some separation between the sheet and the cover. It's not like a sheet over a crib mattress.

I have not had any problems in the hot weather with this seat. The fabric is great, and my 18 month old doesn't get very sweaty in it at all. It's sort of a mesh-type fabric, and very cushy.

I live in AZ and obviously it's really hot here!! The type of material seems to keep the heat off my baby, it's not fuzzy and doesn't seem to trap the heat at all. In fact, I haven't even noticed her being sweaty when I take her out, even if the sun is beating down on her. I am very very happy with this carseat. It's the best!Edit: I got the cub pink and I'm not sure if the type of fabric is different vs other patterns, but it's kind of like a vinyl material, so it is really good at keeping the heat off.

I looked at the tag on my Baby bjorn seat and it says 60% cotton, 40% polyester. I have the black/pinstripe version. It is a fabulous baby seat, my very active 8 month old still likes it! The seat is washable which I love and the chair has three reclining settings. It is more expensive than some of the other baby gear out there, but the quality is exceptional. It also folds flat for storage which is a huge bonus. Everytime I see my son in it, I wish there was an adult version!

It isn't breathable material, but it is also pretty stable. I don't think an older baby would get smooshed into the edges. However, I also don't think it would fit well for a mobile baby. Our son grew out of it in about 3 months. It was simply too narrow for him to sleep comfortably.

Having never sat in it personally, I can't say whether or not it's comfortable, but my kids don't seem to mind it at all. We have two different patterns of this car seat, and both appear to be the same fabric type. We live in a very hot and humid climate, and I was concerned they would heat up, but so far we haven't had any problems that way. The fabric is smooth and they seem to like it. Even on the hottest days their legs don't seem to stick or anything.

Our son sweat a lot in his Britax B-Safe infant seat, but we have had this seat for about 9 months and haven't noticed any issues.

Hello Jeanne, I had the same issue. Apparently there was a bad batch shipped out. Please contact fintankelly@bubblebum.us and let her know the issue. They have EXCELLENT customer service and will resolve the issue. In my case they replaced both my seats immediately at no cost to me! Once you get the replacements, you will love this product! Kelly did tell me that the seat was tested deflated also and meets safety standards without air provided you use the belt hooks on both sides of the seat to keep the belt snug across your child.

My car seat is a Grace and fit well. I washed it for the first time and it washed up well. I looked at a pic of your car seat and it is similar to mine. It looks like it would fit. There is a little room on mine for a little bigger seat. My grandson really loves it. He doesn't seem to sweat as much.

YES! My best friend had it. We in live in OK where it's usually over 100 degrees, then humidity is about 3 or 4 degrees at least. She constantly complained about this seat being SO hot for her daughter.

Yes, but our guy sweats a lot from just being a pretty active/jumping baby ... fyi, we live in San Francisco, so not sure what we'd do with him in Phoenix. It's usually just his head that comes away sweaty in the back. Not a big deal so far. The seat is solid and relatively easy to use (we have it rear-facing and it takes a little maneuvering to get him into the seat while also not bonking his head on the top of our Jeep Grand Cherokee - I think this will get harder for a little while, and then easier when we turn it around and he can climb into it himself).
