About Chicco
Chicco (pronounced KEE-ko) has a mission: "to be the brand which best meets the needs of all children all over the world." Since Chicco's inception back in 1958 in Como, Italy, they have expanded to be a worldwide brand distributed in over 100 countries.
From your newborn's first trip in the car in Chicco's #1 selling KeyFit car seat (also approved for use on commercial airlines) to tummy time in their Lullabye LX Playard, or your little ones first steps in their DJ Walker, Chicco has what you need. When feeding time is over, Chicco's Polly Double Pad High Chairs fold-up and easily roll away to meet the needs of families with limited space. Parents love how lightweight and easy to fold the Chicco Cortina and Trevi strollers are, and Parents of twins will not have a problem with the Chicco Together Double stroller that allows you to easily attach two of the KeyFit car seats. Always on-the-go families simply love the security and quality of the You and Me infant carriers, along with the compact and easy to install Hook On High Chair. Chicco even offers "collections" that contain matching Cortina stroller, KeyFit car seat (with its patented easy-latch and "center-pull" adjustments), Lullabye Playard, and Polly Double High Chair. The chicco Cortina travel systems or the chicco travel systems come in the following colors, romantic which is black, bella which is pink, adventure which is green, miro which Is a multi colored pattern, and fuego which is red. The chicco collection is usually offers the same colors on their playards, highchairs and strollers.
Chicco's large selection of toys is all rigorously tested both by Chicco and independent facilities. Chicco infant, toddler, and preschool toys all meet the American Standard Consumer Safety Specifications on Toy Safety.
The Chicco brand name has become synonymous with affordability and quality. Chicco products are as stylish as they are functional, and the company's commitment to thoughtful design and safety is evident in all of their products.
Pietro Catelli, Artsana founder and president, was born in Como on April 14, 1920. Awarded the honorary title of "Cavaliere del Lavoro", Catelli has always centered his career on human relationships and a contagious love of his work. In the post-war years he managed to take advantage of the synergy between product quality, brand identity and the power of communications. He established Artsana in Como in 1946 to produce and sell hypodermic needles, thermometers and syringes. The Chicco brand was born in 1958, along with Catelli's first son, Enrico.
frequently asked questions
Should my car seat be replaced after a vehicle crash?
Chicco recommends replacing a car seat after any crash. The base is included in this recommendation (if the base was in the vehicle when the crash occurred).
There is no way of knowing what, if any, damage has occurred that would affect the car seat?s performance in a crash. The only way to determine this would be to test the car seat. Therefore, Chicco cannot guarantee a car seat involved in a crash will perform the way it was designed in any subsequent crash. Chicco recommends contacting your insurance company about replacement of your car seat.
Can I use any additional coverings/products in my Chicco car seat?
Chicco does not allow use of any accessories, pads, or products not included with the car seat, unless specifically approved by Chicco. Doing so will void the warranty of the Child Restraint.
Add-on products can interfere with the proper performance of the car seat. It is critical for your child?s safety that add-on products manufactured by other companies not be used without approval from Chicco.
To keep your baby warm and safe when in an infant car seat, Chicco, and child passenger safety experts, recommend putting your child in lightweight, yet warm, clothing with legs (fleece products are great for this). Once the baby is properly buckled in the harness, blankets may be placed over the baby for additional warmth.
Can I take my car seat on an airplane?
The Chicco KeyFit and KeyFit 30 car seats are certified for use in commercial aircraft. Please consult your User Guide for proper installation. Our product manuals are also available on our website.
What is the difference between the KeyFit and KeyFit 30 car seat?
The KeyFit car seat is rated for an infant from 4 to 22 lbs. The KeyFit 30 is rated for an infant from 4 to 30 lbs. The maximum height of the child for both car seats is 30 inches, or if there is less than inch between the top of your child?s head and the top of the car seat. You should move your child to a larger car seat once either the maximum weight or height limit is met. We suggest keeping your child rear facing as long as possible. Rear facing is the safest position for crash protection. There are many convertible car seats available that face the rear until 30-40 lbs and then face forward.
