Do I need to purchase the one with the infant insert or will a 6 month old fit in this ok?

I can't really give you a good answer, our youngest G'dau , 18 months , is very safe & comfortable in the chair.

My 15 month old still sits in his infant insert (we just feel safer that way) and he's just fine.

A six month old will fit perfectly. This is a great chair. I use it when my grandson comes to visit and he is now 20 months. The chair grows with the child.

I think you would need one with insert for 6 month old. My granddaughter is 8 mos and wiuld still need the insert

All three of my grandchildren, age ranges 6 - 7 months old and weight ranges from 14 to 17 pounds fit well without the insert.

This Bassinet is relatively wide and deep, I guess it can fit a baby aged 6 month, you'll probably won't use it till this age as you'll want your baby to get some view when you are travelling with the stroller

No, the infant insert (back rest and straps) needs to be purchased separately.

I have a 6 month old and 4 year old, do you know if both kids will be comfortable in this for the next 2 years (together)?

Mine just came with the infant insert but I think it's up to you whether or not you want to buy the separate toddler cushion. I believe the chair normally comes with no cushions. Just the wooden seat with the strap? Either way you'd have to buy the toddler cushion separately.

I don't think you will need it. I used it as is when my daughter was 6 weeks old. Since she was too small to put her legs through she just had her feet tucked inside. The instructions said to do so that way also. Hope this helps

I believe with the foam infant insert, it will fit infants 4-9 pounds. My son was only 7pounds, 14 ounces and we took that insert out as soon as we got home. It made buckling him in almost impossible.

Probably- it comes with an infant insert. I got it for my son when he was 11 months. Before that we had a Chico car seat that was easy to get in and out of the car.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe it came with an infant insert of some sort. We got this as the second car seat after our daughter out-grew the first one, so I'm not 100% sure if it will work for newborns as is or not. I will say I do like the seat though, it's very configurable, the manual could probably be a little more clear about things though.

I bought one and I personally think it was better for an infant. However you can use it without the insert.

The inserts need to be purchased separate. They have different sizes, I had the smalls and then used doublers and then went into the larger inserts, skipping the medium size all together. The shells last a long time, so are worth the cost. We only cloth diaper with best bottom and have had the ones we have for 17 months and they still look new. Hope this helped answer your question.

Yes, I used it for my newborn with the insert. Now at 8 months were still using. I think she'll be out of it by a year. I am very happy with my purchase.

No. Latch it in and you are done. Unless I totally missed something. It is at the perfect angle if you ask me. I don't think I would be comfortable with a newborn in it. I started using ours at 7 months....

It comes with one insert per diaper, that is enough for a new born maybe but if you have a heavy wetter I would look at buying additional inserts. I use two for my 16 mo old during the day and 3 inserts at night. But when he was little I used 1 during the day and 2 at night.

I was also thinking of doing the same. I will be a first time mom in July and the infant seat seems a bit of a waste of money and also a big carbon footprint considering all the safety advocates say not to use a used car seat. I was doing some research and a site called Consumer Search mentioned that Britax sells "...a foam positioning insert..." for smaller infants.

No additional inserts. This is an all in one cloth diaper and the inserts are attached. They are great! No stuffing necessary. They have been great for overnight for us so far but if you wanted to add another you could use any size insert you would like. I dont think its necessary though unless for overnight. It will make the diaper very bulky.

They do have an infant insert that you can buy to go with it. I carried my son in it with the insert right from the get-go. The baby only faces inwards to your chest, not out. At that age they don't need to be bombarded by all the stimuli coming at them by facing out. Snuggling in to your chest is the safest and most comforting spot for them to be. It will also ensure they are in a better position for hip development and takes the pressure off their crotch.
