### I am always eager to try out new and exciting products no matter big or small. So we got pretty pumped when our whole family could put the 2017 Mazda CX-9 to the “Kid-Tested” and “Dad Reviewed” challenge. We will point out the likes and dislikes and have a good time doing it.

## Kid Tested

The girls had a great time in the back seat of the 2017 [Mazda CX-9](https://daysofadomesticdad.com/more-power-in-the-2020-mazda-cx-9/) Signature AWD, on our trip to Houston for a rodeo. My 8 & 10 year old said they had plenty of room to stretch out and keep their stuff. My 8 year old Jaci, even noted that the leather seats were super comfy. With the 3-zone climate control, everyone pretty much was comfortable during the ride.

## Dad Reviewed 2017 Mazda CX-9 Signature AWD

As for me, I thought the ride and handling of the road was superb! The 2017 [Mazda CX-9](https://daysofadomesticdad.com/2022-mazda-cx-9/) Grand Touring definitely grabbed hold of the road and was able to safely and effectively get my family and I to our destination. With the 20 in wheels on the Grand Touring model, I could tell we where high off the ground, but the dynamic stability control kept it a relaxing ride. As far as the interior of the 2017 Mazda CX-9, I appreciated the close net of gauges, radio/climate controls, navigation, and blind spot monitoring.

### If you are looking for a well rounded mid-size SUV, I would consider the 2017 Mazda CX-9 for the whole family.
