My daughter's Maxi Cosi Pria 70 cover is starting to look kind of gross. I was hoping to find a video on taking the cover off but I wouldn't find any. Any tips on taking the cover off and washing it? Do I have to unintall the seat to get the cover off? Thanks in advance!

Yes, you will have to uninstall the seat. The headrest cover is not supposed to be removed. It can be, but then you risk damaging the air pockets. Unthread the harness from the splitter plate underneath the seat. Pull the harness free from the shell at the shoulders. The cover doesn't have snaps or hooks and loops, it should just pull off. I usually start at the top and work it off around the edges and down to the bottom, but there isn't really a right or wrong way to do it. Recline the seat all the way, and reach through the opening in the front to remove the crotch buckle. Pull the harness through the hip strap holes to entirely free the cover from the seat. The chest clip and harness buckles can slip through the hip strap holes, but it's a tight squeeze, so you can also remove them. Be careful to keep all the buckles and pieces together.

The manual says to hand wash, which is also what I would recommend, but some people have luck washing the cover in a machine on delicate cycle. Do not wash the straps. Wipe them down with a damp (water only) cloth.

Good luck! I didn't find the cover terribly difficult to remove or launder.
