Rotating car seats simplify getting kids in and out of cars, especially for people with mobility concerns. The Nuna Revv Maxx<\/a> is a premium option that rotates 360 degrees and offers high-end comfort. I\u2019ve been testing the seat since its release with my 4-year-old twins who are currently riding forward-facing. They\u2019re thrilled by the short ride they get to take while I rotate them into place, and I find that the seat makes my life easier. I wish I had it when they were babies.<\/p>\n

The Revv Maxx is an updated version of the Revv<\/a>, which had a lower weight limit that shortened its lifespan. The new seat is suitable for newborns to kids who weigh up to 65 pounds, meaning most kids can ride in it until they\u2019re ready for a booster, but take note that some kids might start to find it uncomfortable as they near the weight limit.<\/p>\n

\nSo Supportive For Newborns<\/p>\n

The first thing I noticed about this seat is what an amazing option it is for newborns in particular. When I was shopping for a car seat for the first time, I was unimpressed with a lot of the infant options on the market. I actually returned the first seat that I bought because it simply didn\u2019t provide enough support for a baby. How I wish I had the Nuna Revv Maxx back then.<\/p>\n

The seat has a substantial support wedge as well as Merino wool infant head and body inserts. These additions actually support babies while they\u2019re riding. Combine this with the convenience of the rotation, so you\u2019re not twisting yourself into a pretzel as you try to get baby into their rear-facing seat, and it\u2019s an ideal option.<\/p>\n

Without infant inserts, the Nuna Revv Maxx is still comfortable but a bit cramped as kids near the size limits.<\/p>\n

At $800, though, it\u2019s reasonable to wonder whether the seat is worth it. While the seat is serviceable for older kids, I\u2019d definitely say it\u2019s best for younger and smaller kids. Though it\u2019s suitable for kids up to 65 pounds or 49 inches, whichever comes first, they may start to feel uncomfortable before that point. My 4-year-olds are starting to get a bit cramped in the seat, and the shoulder straps are uncomfortably close to their neck. The crotch strap is adjustable, however, which helps customize the fit for bigger kids.<\/p>\n

Nuna Revv Maxx Features<\/p>\n

Not all rotating car seats are as convenient as others, but the Nuna Revv Maxx stands out from the competition thanks to 360-degree rotation. This allows you to switch between rear- and forward-facing without uninstalling and reinstalling the seat. For people who frequently travel with kids who are different ages, this is huge. The no-rethread harness on this seat adds to the convenience of switching from one child to another, and I can recline the seat with the push of a button.<\/p>\n

The visual indicator and push button recline make adjusting the seat simple. <\/p>\n

Other user-friendly features include a smooth one-handed rotation, machine washable fabrics and magnetic buckle holders. These keep the buckles out of the way while you\u2019re getting your child in the seat, and I find them to be more intuitive than the buckle holders on many other car seats I\u2019ve tested.<\/p>\n

But Some Tradeoffs<\/p>\n

This wasn\u2019t the easiest car seat I\u2019ve ever installed, but it wasn\u2019t the hardest, either. Some of the instructions in the manual were out of order, causing a bit of confusion and requiring me to backtrack while I was installing it. However, I didn\u2019t give up and ask my husband for help during the installation, which is definitely a good sign. Like most rotating car seats, it\u2019s rather heavy at 30.6 pounds and is the type of seat you want to leave installed in one vehicle (if you need something that\u2019s easier to swap out, consider a travel car seat<\/a>). It\u2019s also rather wide and may not work three across in most vehicles.<\/p>\n

The anti-rebound panel on the Nuna Revv Maxx helps minimize forces in the event of a crash. <\/p>\n

Once the seat is installed, it feels really stable. The base has an integrated anti-rebound panel, which can help minimize forces in the event of a crash as well as side impact protection pods. Other features that put this seat above others include moisture-wicking fabric to help keep kids comfortable and the absence of flame retardant chemicals. It also has two cup holders, which my kids like to use for drinks, snacks and toys.<\/p>\n

Final Thoughts On The Nuna Revv Maxx<\/p>\n

If I were shopping for a rotating car seat with premium materials and features for a baby or young toddler, the Nuna Revv Maxx<\/a> would be at the top of my shopping list. I feel at ease knowing my kids are super secure amongst all the padding and added safety features. If I\u2019m going to buy a rotating car seat, I want one that doesn\u2019t need to be re-installed to switch between rear- and forward-facing, which I get with the Revv Maxx.<\/p>\n

The biggest downside is the fact that it\u2019s not as comfortable for bigger kids. While it\u2019s definitely an improvement on the previous version in this area, I still wouldn\u2019t pick this seat if I were trying to get as much use as possible out of a single car seat. Instead, I might pick the Nuna Exec Next<\/a>, which is an all-in-one seat that\u2019s more comfortable for bigger or older kids and that can convert to a booster.<\/p>\n
