Description

Liing sets the new standard for infant car seat safety, designed for a simple, secure installation – in every seating position. It’s fully loaded with advanced safety features, including an energy-absorbing metal load leg, a two-piece shell lined with EPP foam for enhanced side-impact protection, and Clek’s signature rigid-LATCH base, which offers up to 7 recline positions – adjustable after installation – to ensure your baby is at the perfect angle for safe, open airways. Its lightweight design and convenient one-handed quick release make it easy to remove from the base or one of many compatible strollers. Plus, at less than 17 inches wide, Liing’s narrow design makes it easy to ride 3-across. 

Liing is proudly designed, engineered and made in Ontario.

Deciding on the right car seat and stroller combination for your baby can be overwhelming and time consuming. That's why we designed Liing to work with top brands like Baby Jogger®, BabyZen®, Bugaboo®, Bumbleride®, Silver Cross®, Stokke®, Thule® and Uppababy®, using compatible car seat adapters (sold seperately)

All Liing models_are_free of brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, while the mammoth collection is free of any added flame retardants.

And at less than 17 inches wide, the Clek Liing infant car seat can be installed 3-across in most vehicles, or makes room for 2+ dogs or adults.

Features:

  • 13-position energy absorbing metal load leg.
  • Adjustable base with bubble indicator offers up to 7 recline positions, adjustable after installation.
  • Effortless installation with either rigid-LATCH or belt-tensioning system.
  • 3-position adjustable sun canopy with 100+spf sun protection and a mesh peekaboo window.
  • Lightweight design, at just 9 lb, with a convenient one-handed quick release.
  • Two-stage newborn body support system.
  • Advanced side-impact protection system with two-piece energy-absorbing shell lined with EPP foam.
  • Machine washable cover.
  • Made for travel - Aircraft Approved.
  • 9-Year Expiration Date.
  • Recyclable through Clek.

  • Rear-Facing Limits
    • Height: Up to 32 in.
    • Weight: 4-30 lb
    • Minimum Age: Newborn

The BEST infant car seat!
October 3, 2024
I LOVE THIS CARSEAT! It comes with a little booster seat until baby reaches 11 pounds. It made me feel so much more comfortable during those first weeks when they are incredibly fragile. The side head support is also narrow so it really helps keep their little heads in place. The base is amazing! It comes with a stabilizing bar that goes to the floor. It ain’t going nowhere. It is weird how they have it set up to release from the base to take it out but I still love it. Oh and the shade goes so far forward too. Really helps to hide baby in there and block from sun.

Safety First!!
August 22, 2024
We love our Clek Liing for our little one. Fitting our infant to the car seat has a learning curve but once you figure it out the adjustments later on are a lot easier. The car seat is easy to clean when blowouts happen. We love that the car seat fits our stroller with the help of an adapter. We are very happy with the purchase and glad we went with this carseat over the Doona combo. This car seat is a lot more sturdier and the safety of our little one is our main priority!
Pros
  • Easy to clean
  • Straight forward design.
  • Easy to carrier.
  • Stabalizing device included.
  • Sturdy
Cons
  • Only color option is black.

Easy install, excellent safety features
August 12, 2024
Just bought this in preparation for our second little one. Chose this model for the excellent safety ratings, and while we have not yet tested it out with baby (who will arrive this fall), we have practiced installation and it was a breeze! With our previous infant car seat I had to work up a sweat to feel like the install was secure, definitely not the case with the Liing. Very happy with this purchase.

This Seat Is a Tank
May 5, 2024
This car seat is truly amazing and I’ve never trusted an infant seat more with the life of my child. I drive comfortably knowing this seat is extremely well constructed and has amazing additional safety features. The installation is so easy with the rigid latch, the fabric is SO soft and beautiful, the load leg provides additional peace of mind, and the canopy is excellent. The only quirk this seat has in my opinion is the newborn insert, it’s more like a step that the baby sits on which makes it pretty unique. There is definitely a learning curve when it comes to fitting a newborn but once you get past that and get to 11 pounds I have zero complaints.

Great carseat
March 23, 2024
I love that this is chemical flame retardant free. The material is black, but doesn't seem to absorb heat so baby isn't going in to a hot car seat or overheating while out and about.

The base is very easy to install with the rigid latch. Recline is easy to change on the base. The base is difficult to get secured with just the seatbelt though.

The low weight capacity was great as my little one was just under 5 lbs when we came home

Best infant child restraint!
December 20, 2023
As a CPST, Clek is the only brand I trust with my own children. While the leather handle on the Nuna Pipa looks beautiful, that won’t matter in a crash. This child restraint is sturdy, sleek, and well made. The fabric on the marshmallow is stunning! Easy to adjust and worth the $ buying an open box item & it's entirely brand new!

Beautiful Seat
December 17, 2022
Love the pattern, & seat is easy to use. Have not actually installed in car yet, but looks like it will be just as easy, if not easier to install than the seat I used for my other kids. Also, big plus that this does t require a base for install, especially, if just taking an occasional ride in 2nd car.
Pros
  • Light weight, easy to use
Cons
  • None yet.

We're very happy so far with this car seat. Purchased it for the ease of install + safety features. The base is quite heavy but of course you don't need to carry it very often. Our baby is comfortable in here.

Like it overall, questioning quality
June 23, 2022
We purchased this car seat because low toxins was important to me. We got the wool option. It is your typical 5 point harness system. I do find it heavy as a petite person. I have not tried carrying it with my hand around the blue belt anchors on the side. I wish there was something to hold the straps back to put baby in and out of the seat. The infant insert worked well. I am disappointed that the back of the seat from the canopy cover meets the plastic is coming apart already including frayed stitches after only 4 months of light to moderate use. I am happy with how narrow it is to save space in sedan type cars. I have bought multiple bases for it to be used easily with other cars and for the sitter to use as well. Overall I am happy with it.
Pros
  • narrow car seat
  • easy to use
  • attractive
Cons
  • heavy
  • quality may not be ideal

Safest car seat
April 27, 2022
We have purchased other clek car seats and boosters for older children, and there is no competition to clek being the safest in the industry for car seats. So far we are pleased with the convenient features of the infant seat. And we always appreciate the ability to have 3 car seats in the same row with clek’s thin profile. However that does not compromise any safety, as Clek seats are built very sturdy and strong compared to other plastic and foam framed car seats. At this price point, it sure would be nice to see features like the sensor safe temperature chest clip offered by competitors. That was almost a selling point of other brands over clek (for less money) but ultimately the strong design of clek among other features (leg load base, light weight and slim profile) were greater strengths. I haven’t had to wash this seat yet, but I do hope
I am able to do so without too much hassle when the time comes. Thank you clek for making outstanding safe products to keep our children safe.

Cleks for everyone!
April 14, 2022
We love our foonfs so much we decided to go with the Liing for the third baby. He was a preemie coming home from the nicu and fit well with the little cushion. It has gotten HEAVY now that he is almost 8 months but I’m ok with that for Clek safety. The mammoth fabric is soft and easy to wipe clean. I wish they would add a better/ more comfortable handle especially for the price of the Mammoth Liing. The handle also clicks super loud to me. Overall we recommend the seat and will stick with the brand
Pros
  • Safety features
  • Quality
  • Comfort
  • Preemie fit
  • Flame retardant free
Cons
  • Loud
  • Uncomfortable handle
  • Pricey

We picked this car seat because it had the highest safety rating. Nuna pipa lite lx was our runner up.

Lots of research - wouldn't go with any other brand
July 19, 2021
I spent hours researching car seat brands and while there's plenty of good, approved car seats on the market, you get what you pay for. Clek is the only car seat we will put our children in due to the safety features that go above and beyond what's required, how well-made and easy to use the products are, and how fantastic their customer service is. We have another "top" brand of infant seat that we bought for our firstborn prior to discovering Clek and when our second baby was born and we pulled the original car seat back out, we quickly realized that it was a hassle compared to our Clek convertibles that we purchased for our firstborn when he outgrew the infant seat. So off we went to buy this Clek infant seat and we don't regret it. It's a fantastic seat!

I chose this infant seat after being in a car accident because the carseat lady said it’s the safest seat in the market. Love that Clek releases their crash testing reports. We have a Liing, a Foonf, and a Oobr. Love them ALL. I have 3 kids and this is by far my favorite infant seat the install is amazing, love the load leg, cozy, narrow, love that it tells you when it’s installed right and clicked in correctly. Love rigid latch
Pros
  • Rigid latch, easy install, load leg, looks and feels cozy, narrower than some seats, lots of fabric options, flame retardant and chemical free fabrics
Best Uses
  • Infant newborn first year
Cons
  • None

Good light weight car seat
May 27, 2021
We are very particular about our car seats. My husband is a crash reconstructionist and is very insistent about a few things in his car seats. One is anti-rebound to help prevent head injury. This car seat is light enough to be able to carry easily but also is safe. Additionally, the fabric is washable and breathable.

Quality, size and safety all great
March 10, 2021
We needed a narrow seat because this will be our third car seat in the row, but chose it because of the high safety rating and lightweight style. I'm very pleased with it. The fabrics and design are high quality and the size and weight are perfect for our car (we managed to fit 3 seats into a relatively small car). I like the latch and the seatbelt tightening function, and the extra leg for safety. The shade/sleep hood is very generous too.

December 22, 2020
I cannot say enough good things about the Liing. As a CPST, NICU nurse, and parent, I have used practically every infant car seat on the market in some capacity. I have very strong preferences (skip the uppababy mesa) and had my favorites (Nuna and Britax). And then I met the Liing. And this thing blows the competition out of the water. The rigid latch base installation is mind blowingly easy. The European belt path makes baseless install secure and reliable. The load leg is a top of the line energy management feature - in a sea of marketing and random claims by car seat manufacturers, load legs are one feature that actually make a big difference in crash performance. The carrier is sleek and attractive, and the handle shape makes it comfortable to carry even with my 20lb 9-month-old inside. With all my other kids in all my other infant car seats, I got tired of carrying the infant seat around by 3-4 months, but here we are at 9 months still using the Liing because it's seriously that user friendly. Also, when I had a minor (not safety related) issue with my Liing, Clek customer service was absolutely amazing, following up regularly until I got a replacement part. I normally love to try out different car seats but I don't want to use any other infant seat after having a Liing.
Pros
  • Extremely compact front to back, easy install, advanced safety features, excellent newborn fit, soft fabrics

Could be improved
September 16, 2020
I bought this car seat having extremely high hopes and expectations only to be let down. But let's begin with what I enjoy about the car seat. It is extremely safe, the car seat is lightweight, and the fabric is not only flame retardant free but very obviously high quality and luxurious. I love the leather bit on the carrier handle. I love how sleek the car seat looks. And I love that the car seat came with different inserts. Its aesthetically pleasing, its sturdy, and it's not a big bulky heavy carrier. However, this car seat could be better. The canopy barely covers my newborn so we always have an issue with sun in her eyes. The carrier handle adjustment buttons have to both be pushed to move the handle which is a hassle while holding your crying child trying to leave in a rush as a single mother. The carrier handle is unusually large... or tall? It sticks out quite far from the carrier. And I dont believe I'll be able to get much more use from this car seat which is so disappointing given the price. The clek claims that this infant carrier fits a child put to 35 lbs and or up to 32 inches and yet my 2 month old that isnt at either of these measurements is already using the highest shoulder strap placement. It wont be safe to use once she surpasses that.... this is a nice car seat and one of the few that is flame retardant free but I'm afraid it isnt living up to my expectations.
Pros
  • Sturdy
  • High quality
  • Flame retardant free fabric
  • Lightweight
Cons
  • Price
  • Ease of use
  • Better for small babies

This is car seat came recommended to me by a lawyer who works in the car seat safety industry. This was her absolute recommendation as was all of the Clek seats. My whole family uses these for their kids and they love them. They are built like a tank, yet still light weight for carrying. My newborn also fits safely snug in there and no need to buy one of those inserts so their head doesn’t flop around.

This is by far the best quality car seat I have ever seen. This car seat is one of those, “you get what you paid for!” Very sturdy, high quality, material is hands down beautiful and cush. It was between this and the Nuna but I went with my gut and I am very satisfied. I would pay a $1000 for this car seat, honestly.. It’s worth the price. Nothing I have seen compares to its quality on all aspects. I kind of like it’s not mainstream because it’s very different from anything else out there.

We have been Clek fans for years however we still searched for months, looking at other car seats before deciding on this one. Dozens of reviews from car seat safety specialists, bloggers, and customers and I couldn’t find any complaints that weren’t related to price. This seat checks all the boxes on safety, helpfulness of customer service, ease of use, and even style. We had also considered a Cybex seat however what tipped the scale for us was that not only is the Clek manual easier to understand but we felt the construction of the Clek base was more substantial. If you have to funds, or the ability to save for it I would highly recommend the Clek Liing.

No Chemicals, Well Made, Easy to Use but Not Cheap
August 12, 2019
I wanted a car seat that was free of chemicals and the Clek Liing (Mammoth) was one of only two on the market that fully fit the bill. It is free of smells straight out of the packaging which is just great. The seat is pretty lightweight yet sturdy, easy to install, and can be used without the base. The material is soft which I also like though I do wish it came in a lighter color as I live in a very hot and sunny region. Overall the Clek Liing is a great carseat.
Pros
  • Chemical Free
  • Easy to Install
  • Well Made
Cons
  • Dark (can be hot) Fabric
