The Shyft DualRide is a rear-facing infant car seat with built-in stroller wheels, for babies from 3 to 30 lb and 15.7 to 32 inches tall with at least 1 inch of headroom. It installs on a base with LATCH or a seat belt, or belted without the base. The manual gives no expiry in years.
The Shyft DualRide suits a parent who wants the car seat and the stroller to be one product, so the baby goes from car to sidewalk without a separate frame. The trade-off is weight: Evenflo lists 29.0 lb for the seat with its integrated wheels. The LiteMax NXT with SensorSafe covers the same 3 to 30 lb range as a separate carrier listed at 8.6 lb.
A research summary of Evenflo’s published specifications and manual, read . Not a hands-on test or a crash-safety rating.
This seat covers one stage. Check the date label on the shell before using a hand-me-down; every seat has an expiry.
| Mode | Child weight | Child height | Minimum age | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rear-facing harness | 3 to 30 lb | 15.7 to 32 in | Not published | Top of child's head at least 1 in below the top of the headrest. |
A child must meet every limit for the mode they use. The labels on your seat and its manual are the final word.
Every install is a fit between one seat and one vehicle. Read both manuals, and use a free inspection station if anything is unclear.

Evenflo does not publish a width for this seat, so measure your back seat and compare it with the seat in a store before buying. It weighs 29 lb, which matters if you will move it between cars or carry it through an airport.

The manual describes installing the convenience base with LATCH, with a lap and shoulder belt, or with a lap belt only. The carrier can also be belted in without the base, and the carrier with its stroller frame can be belted to the vehicle or clicked onto the base. Whichever route you use, the seat must not move more than 1 inch side to side or front to back at the rear-facing belt path. Never use LATCH and the seat belt together. The base has a 5-position recline foot. In the United States the carry handle can be in any locked position while driving; in Canada it must be in Stroller Mode.
The headrest moves the harness height without rethreading and has eight locked positions. Set it so the straps sit at or just below the shoulders. The Infant Body Support is required for babies from 3 to 6 lb and optional above 6 lb. The harness straps have a top loop, used only when needed to tighten the harness on a smaller infant, and a bottom loop for later. Evenflo requires the evaluation recommended by the AAP before the first car trip for babies born before 37 weeks or weighing less than 5 lb at birth.
The stroller frame is designed only for the Shyft DualRide infant seat, and the manual warns against using it with any other seat. It limits the cupholder to 1 lb, the Carry-All Bag to 7 lbs and the Universal Stroller Organizer to 2 lb, because heavier loads can make the stroller unstable. Do not roll it on stairs or escalators with the child in it, and never leave it on a hill. For flights, the seat is certified for aircraft if used with the stroller frame, and the manual asks you to confirm with the airline an 18 in aisle width for stroller mode and an 18 in seat width for installation.
Machine wash the soft goods separately in cold water on a delicate cycle with no chlorine bleach. Tumble dry for 10 to 15 minutes on low heat and remove them at once. Take out any foam inserts first. Wipe the harness with mild soap and water and let it air dry. Do not immerse or lubricate the buckle or the LATCH connectors unless the back of the buckle says rinsing is allowed. The seat cover releases with two tabs at the front and two at the back, marked with orange arrows, and the manual says never to use the seat without its pad.
Each campaign naming this family was read against this model’s numbers and build dates, and none covers it. Still check your seat’s model number and date of manufacture before use, especially on a used seat.
The manual gives 3 to 30 lb and 15.7 to 32 inches, with the top of the head at least 1 inch below the top of the headrest. Once the child exceeds any one of these, the manual says to stop using the seat.
Evenflo lists a product weight of 29.0 lb, which includes the integrated stroller wheels. The folded dimensions are 18 in wide, 29.5 in deep and 26 in high. The page does not give a weight for the carrier without wheels.
No. The manual says the frame is only designed for the Shyft DualRide infant car seat and warns that an incompatible infant seat may result in serious injury.
The manual certifies it for aircraft if used with the stroller frame. Check with the airline first: it asks for a minimum 18 in (45.7 cm) seat width for installation and an 18 in aisle width for stroller mode, and pages 104 to 109 give the steps.
Evenflo lists the LiteMax NXT with SensorSafe for infants from 3 to 30 lb and 15.7 to 32 in. tall, with a product weight of 8.6 lb. The Shyft DualRide carries its wheels with it, so its listed weight is higher.

The manual refers to an expiration date on the date of manufacture label and says to stop using the seat after that date or after a crash. It does not state the period in years.
