Summary:

The Peg Perego Primo Viaggio 4-35 earned the highest overall score in our review. It has a very nice appealing look car seat that comes with some interesting features and performed as well in tests. This seat is very easy to install, no matter which type you choose, but it is particularly easy to manage without the base installed in your car. When compared side-by-side with the competition this seat really shines and impresses with its quality and comfort scores. The only drawback possibly would be that it has a slightly higher price tag than others. However, the higher price could be justified given how well it performed in testing. Overall, we really liked the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio 4-35 and gave it our Editors’ Choice award.
