I know nothing about carseats or babies, but my best-friend registered for this for her baby shower. Do I need to get a car seat base to go with this?

no this is a one piece unit that works great, lasts a long time and is very very safe!

No you don't need a base with this car seat. The ones you need bases for are the ones that you put their baby carrier in.

No, a base is not required. It is a one piece unit. However, it is designed for larger babies. I would recommend something smaller for infants that does come with a base. This unit is much easier to use for smaller babies and you can buy additional bases for other cars (without buying more entire seat units). see: Graco Snugride Classic Connect Infant Car Seat, Surrey

Hmmmm.. do you mean without the base for the car seat? I have a newborn, and LOVE my stroller but I haven't used it without the adapter for my chicco keyfit 30 car seat.

You can use it without car seats but if you want to use it with a car seat you must have your own. It does not come with a car seat, if that's what you're asking.

Yes I bought Chicco Romantic travel system from the store Buy Buy Baby. It comes with a car seat base.

Only carrier type infant car seats require base. This one doesn't need any base.

There is no separate base on this carseat like on infant carseats. It's all one piece.

With the base. The carseat is really heavy, though! I like it, because that means it's sturdy...but yeah...arm workout galore!

We have a Safety 1st Carseat and base, would that work with this stroller? We really don't want to have to buy a new carseat just to use with this stroller. We have a 2 year old and are expecting our second baby in mid January next year.

With base it is heavy. Carseat by itself is not bad. I carried my fatigued everywhere in it and with her at times it could be heavy.

no. This is a convertible car seat. The car seats that have bases where you can take the baby around are normally infant car seats.

No. No carseats fit on this. It's an umbrella stroller. I do still love ours though, 2.5 years later.

Hi Laurie, This base will not work. The car Seat with this stroller is a Comfy Carry. You will need to purchase the Safety 1st Comfy Carry Adjustable Base that is sold on this website. If I can answer any further questions, please let me know.

If you find the car seat support not enough for the baby, then go for this product. Also, it's important to keep the newborns head correctly positioned (straight), and to have cushy padding under it to eliminate the possibility of flat head. I don't think this extra comforting insert could cause any safety issues, just fill out your car seat, and if you find it too hard, or notice your little one isn't snug in it, by the insert.

Well if you are lazy like me and my wife, then yes. I have a base in my car and she has one in hers. At a moments notice we can take either car with haveing to fool with the car seat. You just snap it in and you are good to go. :-) That being said, the carseat itself can be stapped in using the seat belts and only them. You don't have to use the base at all. We have done that before when my wife went in her moms car. So NO, you don't need it but it is nice to have.

This car is for new borns but I am not sure which base it clicks into but it does come with a base and you can buy a separate base for other cars but whether it is the family fix base I do not know. I would not recommend this seat. We had a lot of problems with the straps and the angle of the seat. We had to return the seat twice.

While I don't know if it specifically is or not, I'll tell you that my daughter bought her car seat in the spring of 2014. I obviously just purchased this base in the last couple of weeks. I'm sorry, I don't think I can be of any more help for you.

This car seat is a convertible and does not leave the car once installed, like an infant car seat does. There is no seperayte base, the car seat is all one unit.
