What is the difference between the Chicco Nextfit, CX and ZIP?
For years, Chicco has been making the highly rated and award winning Keyfit 30 infant car seat. Customers were loving it (and still are!) but wanted another Chicco product for the next step once their child outgrew the bucket seat. Chicco listened and presented us with the Nextfit series!!
The “original” Nextfit came out a few years ago and since its debut, they’ve slowly made some convenient improvements and voila!, the Nextfit Sport, the ZIP and ZIP Air were born! But what is the actual difference you ask? What did they change, add or remove? Read up and find out! Keep in mind that all the safety features remain the same between each seat, only the convenience features change between types.
