We live in Connecticut where it's extremely hot in summer, anyone live in a hot climate that used this? I worry about my newborn getting too hot

We live in Atlanta and we used the carrycot until the end of June when our daughter outgrew it. We unzipped it all the way and she just wore a onesie. She was completely shaded so it wasn't too bad. If it was so hot it would be unsafe I just wouldn't take her out. Hope this helps

The airflow in the back for an infant laying down is not good. I live in Texas and our son would get super hot when I put him in it. I did buy a portable fan that helped a little. Great concept, but would have been better if they used mesh on the back part to help with airflow.

We live in Baltimore and it get's pretty steamy here, I have never noticed the fabric of this carseat being any warmer than usual. As for breathable, she's not a sweaty mess when we take her out. I never really thought about it. I think it's fine

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

We have our a/c set to 72 and she sleeps in it with a tshirt onesie on. I think it'd be too hot without a/c, depending on where you live.

We live in Maine so for much of the year we have cool nights. The microsfleece may be too warm for the summer months (3 -4 months for us) but it works very well forthe rest of the year.

We purchased it in the past winter so I can't tell if it's going to feel hot for your child in summer, but for my son who gets cold even in the summer he'll be using itGood luck

I live in Tennessee and purchased in August. We have had no issues with it being too hot. I don't notice that the temperature is any different than any other mattress.

Our boys never had a problem with the temperature. we've been using it for 2 months, and it still goes to 105* (a completely acceptable temp) if you're worried, splash some on your wrist- if it stings its too hot.

I live in Hawaii and I love my organic carrier. I choose it over airflow because it is softer and more comfortable. It is not hotter than to have your baby in the stroller. I have noticed that it can be more sweating in area where my baby touches me then in baby-carrier area. You can loosen the carrier and put your hands in between carrier and your baby's back to let air flow from time to time. It works perfectly for us. Love it!

I have not had any problems in the hot weather with this seat. The fabric is great, and my 18 month old doesn't get very sweaty in it at all. It's sort of a mesh-type fabric, and very cushy.

This shouldn't be a problem if you have AC. As long as you don't let the room get too warm, the baby will be fine. I would go with the cotton one over the microfleece one though, it will breathe better.

When it's too hot or too humid I'd avoid keeping the baby outside anyway. I don't expect this cover to make it worse for the baby, but keep the baby so that you can observe for discomfort and you should be OK.

I'm sure it would get hot in the sun, as it is black plastic. But most of the area your child would contact is covered with fabric, so I wouldn't worry about it. I bought this because we have two Britax car seats, and we were impressed with the quality and thoughtful design. Britax specializes in baby stuff, so I would go Britax again in a second.

During hotter days I would just put a diaper on my baby with the suit, my baby really took to the suit and became a great sleeper. Good luck!

Did she go into heat shortly thereafter? My 5 month old did that to me as well--went into her "season" a few weeks later.

I don't live in Florida, but did use this over the hot weekend at SD Safari Zoo while it was 90°F, and baby was fine in it comfortably. There wasn't excessive sweating, but I did also used a stroller canopy extension and that could have helped reduced the temperature.

My son definately gets hot in this, but I usually just have him in a onsie and try not to be out I. The 90 degree weather. My so. Is hot blooded so I also put an ice pack between him and I.
