360° Safety: Why Parents Love the Cybex Callisto G 360
Between diaper changes, snack emergencies, and the endless "are we there yets?" parenting already feels like an extreme sport. The last thing you need is a car seat that fights back every time you try to buckle in your wiggly little escape artist.
That's why we love the Cybex Callisto G 360 Rotating All-in-One Convertible Car Seat—the Swiss Army knife of car seats, designed to spin smoothly, install in seconds, and keep your kid safe from newborn days all the way to "Mom, can I drive now?" age (okay, not that far... but close).
In this ANB Baby review, we'll take a closer look at why this seat might just be your new best parenting sidekick, how it stacks up against the Nuna Revv, and—most importantly—whether it's worth the hype (spoiler: yes, especially if you value your sanity). Buckle up—let's dive in!
Is the Cybex Callisto G 360 Worth It?
Yes, it is! Here's why:
- All-in-one design (rear-facing, forward-facing, and booster mode)
- SensorSafe® alerts for unbuckling, temperature changes, and prolonged seating
- 360° rotation for effortless loading/unloading
- Linear Side-impact Protection (L.S.P.) for crash safety
- 37% safer than standard seats (based on head & chest injury metrics)
- GREENGUARD Gold Certified (low chemical emissions)
Unlike many convertible seats, the Callisto G 360 grows with your child, from 4 lbs to 120 lbs (newborn to about 10 years).
What Is the Weight Limit for the Cybex Callisto G 360?
| Mode | Weight Range | Height Range |
|---|---|---|
| Rear-Facing | 4–40 lbs | Up to 43" |
| Forward-Facing | 22–65 lbs | Up to 49" |
| Booster | 40–120 lbs | Up to 57" |
Note: The infant insert supports babies as small as 4 lbs, making it ideal for preemies.
What Age Is the Cybex 360 Car Seat For?
The Cybex Callisto G 360 grows with your child through every stage. Designed to accommodate newborns as small as 4 pounds (with the included infant insert), it transitions seamlessly from rear-facing for infants and toddlers all the way to forward-facing and booster mode for big kids up to 10 years old (or 120 pounds). That means no more swapping seats every few years—just adjust the no-rethread harness and headrest as your child grows. Whether you've got a sleepy newborn, a squirmy toddler, or a school-aged kid who insists they're "too big" for a car seat (but very much isn't), the Callisto G 360 has you covered. It's the last car seat you'll ever need to buy (unless, of course, you're planning on having a lot more kids).
Cybex Callisto G 360 vs. Nuna Revv: What's the Difference?
While the Cybex Callisto G 360 and the Nuna Revv are both premium car seats with top-notch safety ratings, there are a few differences between the two models. The Callisto G 360 offers extended use as an all-in-one seat (4–120 lbs) with booster mode, while the Revv focuses solely on rear-to-forward-facing (5–40 lbs). The Callisto features SensorSafe alerts and a 10-year lifespan, whereas the Revv prioritizes compact steel framing and Aeroflex side-impact protection. Both deliver premium safety with 360° rotation and no-rethread harness systems.

Cybex Callisto G 360 Crash Test Rating & Safety Features
The Cybex Callisto G 360 is engineered for maximum safety at every stage.
- FMVSS 213 Certified (meets U.S. safety standards)
- Linear Side-impact Protection (L.S.P.) reduces crash forces
- Anti-Rebound Base minimizes movement in collisions
- SensorSafe® Alerts for emergencies (unbuckling, extreme temps)
Cybex Callisto G 360 Installation: Quick & Secure
Getting the Callisto G 360 properly installed takes less time than convincing a toddler to put on shoes. Thanks to the intuitive SafeLock System, you can achieve a rock-solid installation in just 15 seconds! Simply route the belt, click the tensioner, and lock it in place. The one-time tether setup works for both rear and forward-facing modes, while the no-rethread harness automatically adjusts with the headrest as your child grows. For maximum stability, always use the included tether (though the seat meets safety standards without it). No wrestling with confusing manuals or wrestling with LATCH connectors—just a secure fit that lets you focus on the road ahead rather than worrying about proper installation.
