Does the leather on the Licorice seat touch (burn in the summer) the baby's skin?

No idea. We live in South Florida and don't drive without air condition in our vehicle all year round.

They do get hot, but as long as I remember to drape it with a sheet (fitted crib sheets work great!), it shades it from direct sunlight and we have no problem.

Kristen, we are not really fond of it. It does not harm the leather but it is big, but I do have small hands. Also, it does get really hot in the sun and the texture is strange, it feels sticky.

I purchased one for my daughter because I didn't like the way she looked sitting in the seat. The insert gave her a more comfortable fit plus it kept her cool. I used it until she was around 8 months. You can't go wrong if you decided to use it. God bless

I honestly haven't gotten the chance to use it that much yet... My baby just turned 6 months, but from the few times I have used it I left the infant insert in it (which comes with the seat) and it is a fleece like material and he did sweat! (It was summer time and hot out so I kind of expected it) but when I felt the material the first thing that ran across my mind is if he was going to be too hot sitting on it. The seats material is supposed to be better and more breathable then the G2 I just haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet. But I think it will be fine! Wish I could help more!

That is my understanding, yes. They have a relatively high rubbing alcohol content, which can irritate sensitive skin. I've never worn gloves and never experienced any irritation. Nor have I ever known anyone to experience problems. I would recommend following the advice on the lid sticker--don't use on baby's bottoms! I can imagine that would definitely cause irritation.

It sure doesn't seem to damage the leather. I've been using three of these for two months and so far my seats are in great shape.

It has been several months and I gave mine away. I know it has polyester in it but I don't know the percetage. It was very hot and made us feel sticky.

It has not ruined mine but the arms in my chair are made of some type of rubber. I don't know how it will be with leather. It will definitely leave a mark on a leather arm chair.

mine is scratched up and worn out in less than a year...I really wish they would make this with a plastic adult seat. I complained and they sent another, but same thing. I even used gentle baby shampoo to see if it was the lysol wipes I was using causing the problem. I love the function of the seat. It's the BEST. But replacing them after not even a year of use, is not great.

it's very similar fabric to most stroller seats, so o don't think it would make a child sweat any more than a regular stroller seat. I'm using it in sunny California and have not had this problem :)

It's 2 layers of fairly heavy canvas. However, the baby isn't wrapped up in the fabric, and there's plenty of room for air flow to keep the baby cool. You may have sweat on your back in summer, but nobody said parenting was glamourous ;)

I live in Oklahoma and it gets very hot during the summer. The fabric didn't get that hot, just warm sitting in the car. Now, the metal part to buckle the child in does get very hot, but it will with any car seat with metal parts.

Absolutely not! I have leather seats and take the car seats out to clean every now and then and they have never left a mark! I have a 1year old and 3 year old grandchildren!

It's only spring so far but my child has sat in the seat for hours in jeans a tshirt and a fleece jacket and he wasn't sweating as much as he did in his infant seat.... Hope that helps answer your question

We bought the infant seat and the swing set for our grandsons for Christmas (ages 1 & 3). While it does get pretty warm (we live in Florida) it does not seem to bother them. They play on it all the time. I hope this helps..

The surfaces that your body touches are real leather. The sides and back are bonded leather. It's a very nice reclining love seat. I've been pleased with it.

It does not get too hot. We live in south Florida and I have never even had the thought that my baby is hot. It's not very thick, so I don't really think there is much of a difference btw the liner and if the baby wasn't on the liner. Hope that helps
