Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

City Go 2 Infant Car Seat
3.5/5
mixed
Reviewers praise
  • RapidLock base installs quickly using either vehicle belt or LATCH, with a straightforward lock mechanism
  • No-rethread harness with one-hand adjustable headrest makes fit adjustments simple as the baby grows
  • Anti-rebound bar on the base provides an added layer of crash protection
Reviewers push back
  • Base is bulky and may be tight in compact cars
  • Canopy offers limited reach and does not extend as far as some competing seats
  • No dedicated slot to prop the seat on a shopping cart
A well-built infant car seat that earns consistent praise for easy installation, harness ergonomics, and stroller compatibility, with minor recurring complaints about base bulk and canopy reach.
— best for: Parents who already use Baby Jogger strollers and want a fast-installing, harness-friendly infant seat that transitions seamlessly between car and stroller.

We had this car seat for my first son & used for 13 months. We loved the easy install without the base for Ubers/traveling & grandma’s car. The only things I don’t love about this car seat are: 1- it is not compatible with non-baby jogger strollers & 2- it is on the heavier side. Still, it is a really great car seat for a solid price. We bought the travel system on Amazon Prime deal for $499! Jconno18 · Baby Jogger
