ordering car seat from amazon?

How do you feel about getting an infant carseat from amazon? We  registered at BRU and Amazon but BRU doesn't carry the one we want (Chicco KeyFit 30 Romantic)... I am nervous about putting it on my amazon registry because if it comes with any defects or anything, it would be harder to return. Any thoughts on that?

Re: ordering car seat from amazon?

  • I feel like it's the same as ordering from bru, target, etc online. I have returned stuff to amazon sms it seemed pretty ready. Also, if they were manufacturers defects, my sssumption is you would return directly to the manufacturer. I could be wrong though

  • I would do it.  I've ordered all of Ben's carseats online and not had any trouble.  I may have bought one off of Amazon even.
  • Thanks- I bought a camera from amazon and was able to return it but they charged me to do so. The camera didn't work... so I was really bitter about it. Return policies for all these stores make me nervous!

    Did you buy directly from Amazon or one of the marketplace sellers?  We had to return something to Amazon once that was defective and they paid for the return shipping. 

    I wouldn't have any problem buying a car seat from Amazon.  I believe they have a 1 year return policy on all the baby items, too.

    Direct from Amazon. I just want to make sure I don't end up getting screwed-- I think it will be fine though. Thanks ladies!

  • I just bought a new stroller today and the guy told me to check BabyCatalog.com for the carseat. It was $75 cheaper than Amazon. I'd take a look there, too. 

    On Amazon, you have to specify some specific reason why you need to return in order to get the free return -- DH did it last week, but I can't remember which reason he had to choose.

  • As long as it's direct from them I'd be fine with it. We order a lot from Amazon, love Prime free shipping :) We got her stroller, her convertible car seat etc online
  • We ordered Chicco Keyfit from Amazon.  It came fast and was in perfect shape. Actually, we ordered almost all of our "big ticket" baby items (play yard, stroller, crib, car seat) through Amazon and had not one single issue.

  • We bought our carseat from albeebaby.com was much cheaper then amazon. Also, here is a great site that helps determine how prices are going. www.camelcamelcamel.com
