Description
Without its base, the Aria is just 6 lbs, making it a standout when it comes to easy-to-carry baby gear. The adjustable headrest offers a no re-thread, 5-point harness for a more accurate and customized fit as baby grows. Plus, the simple one-crotch buckle position makes buckling easier.
The included stay-in-car base weighs 12.6 lbs and installs in seconds with a SmartSecure system, auto-retracting LATCH design and red-to-green visual indicators. It also features an adjustable load leg and Anti-Rebound+ Panel for stability and energy absorption in the event of a crash (this helps limit forward rotation during a front collision).
For peace of mind, Aria is made with both fabric and foam that’s free from all fire-retardant chemicals, including the large UPF 25+ hideaway canopy. It’s also GREENGUARD Gold Certified to support healthier air quality and low chemical emissions.
To create a travel system, Aria directly attaches to both the Vista and Cruz strollers (sold separately). It’s also compatible with the Minu and Ridge with the addition of adapters.
For two-car families, you can add a second car seat base.

Customer reviews
Pros it's super lightweight and a relatively small profile for the early months until I switch to a convertible carseat. Works as part of a travel system with a stroller I love. Easy to click in and out of the base. Exactly what I was looking for.
Cons The dimensions listed in the product specs are very misleading, because it doesn't include the combined seat + base dimesions like the Mesa V2. When installed on the base, the carseat doesn't fit in my car without moving my seat forward. I'm 5'8'' and my husband is 6'4''. So I now need to decide between looking for a different carseat or using the seat without the base (which would be a hassle and real bummer) or sucking it up and moving my drivers seat forward 2 inches until she grows out of the seat and accepting that hubby can't drive my car unless we continuously move the base from side to side. :(
One side does not click off very well when taking it off the stroller.
I do like the longer sun shade and that it's vented. It is also very lightweight but that's because it's seriously so tiny.
