Stand Out Features of this Car Seat
Flame-retardant-free fabric
All of the fabric options on this model are flame-retardant-free, so you can choose any color that you prefer!
Swivels
The Evenflo Revolve180 seats swivel as the name implies! When the seat is installed on the base, it can be swiveled to either side. This is a great option for caregivers who frequently babywear instead of taking the infant seat out every time. But is still allows the flexibility of taking the seat inside for short trips as needed.
SensorSafe
This version of this seat comes with the SensorSafe chest clip. This unique chest clip communicates with an app on the caregiver’s phone to provide four types of information: if the child is too hot or too cold; if the child has been buckled in for too long; if the chest clip is unbuckled, or if the child is still buckled in the car after the vehicle has been turned off. These alerts can bring major peace of mind!
Seat is good for you if
You want a seat that is easy to install.
The Evenflo Revolve180 infant seats feature a LockStrong belt tensioner. The base has a panel that lifts up, which you route the seat belt under. You have to tighten the seat belt a little bit, and then you just close the panel. Check for 1" of movement and adjust as needed.
Use caution if
You have a small back seat.
The Evenflo Revolve 180 Litemax NXT is not the biggest infant seat for sure, but it's not the most compact either. All Evenflo infant seats require at least 1.5" between the infant seat and the seat in front of it, unless it is installed in the center seating position. We were able to fit it behind the driver in the Toyota Corolla we were using though.
Quirks to be aware of
The straps twist easily.
We found that the harness straps twisted so easily that we had to fix them almost every time we used the seat. However, it was very easy to fix as the buckle slots are wide.

Airplane Use
The Evenflo Revolve180 Litemax NXT is an aircraft-approved car seat. This is a good option for travel. If traveling internationally, you will need a locking clip. Contact the car seat manufacturer for a free locking clip. We have a video here of how to use a locking clip.

SITS Bottom Line
The Evenflo Revolve180 Litemax NXT SensorSoothe packs in a lot of thoughtful features for busy caregivers. Between the flame-retardant-free fabrics, swivel function, SensorSafe chest clip, and fun SensorySoothe handle lights and sounds, it’s designed to make daily life easier. Installation is simple, and while the straps do twist easily, they’re quick to straighten out. It's a great option if you are looking for an infant seat that swivels!
