Our little one is messy and loves to pour out her bottle. Literally the first time she rode in her seat she did this and we had to wash it. It wasn't as easy as we thought it would be to wash it. We got it done of course, but initally we thought it was just a couple of zips and we could put it in the wash. We actually had to bring that part in the house and it took a lot to take all of it apart to wash. 

Other than that, we LOVE this seat. We enjoy the swivel and allowing baby girl to go from rear-facing to front facing super easily! Definitely WOULD reccomend, just wish washing was easier!
