Cocorro vs. SS1/Snugride 32?

mom2juliarose · May 29, 2009

A friend of mine is eyeing the Cocorro, but does anyone have how the measurements compare to the SS1/SR32 (her other seat of choice)? She babywears quite a bit, so the ability to take the infant bucket out and not the Cocorro is not a big deal. How do they compare size-wise in terms of the seat, the harness slots, etc.? Any opinions on which might last longer and why?

TIA!

I think all the measurements of the cocorro are in this review:

And there are reviews of the ss1/snugride 32 there in that area also. I

the cocorro, and if I didn't have the keyfit I would have gotten one. I think it may last just a tad longer than the sn32, I think the shell height is maybe just a tad less than the roundabout. If I were to have another one, I may just forgo the bucket for the cocorro

It would seem for a babywearer that the Cocorro wouldn't be a bad choice at all. It seems like it'd install much like the Graco buckets without the base. So it'd be relatively easy for occasionally carrying it into the house when the baby is small and has fallen asleep or something... this is something I was thinking about for myself, as I'd babywear to and from the stores and such but would also like to have the seat in the house on a cold morning so the seat is warm when I strap the baby in. KWIM???

I replied to the review of the Coccoro with links to pics I took comparing it with the SS1. For the record, I initially used the SS1 when my daughter was born, and stopped as soon as I installed the Coccoro. I love that seat! I babywear a lot and have come to hate lugging infant seats, so I don't mind that it stays in the car. I also love being able to wrap the seatbelt around the back.

FYI, while it would be possible to uninstall the seat relatively easily with a kid in it, installing it would be quite a challenge, and not something I'd recommend.

I found this thread extremely helpful regarding the Coccoro. It's more likely that your friend will have seen a Roundabout in person and this can give some perspective to the Coccoro's size vs Roundabout.
