Reassuringly safe car seat - good for newborns

Fits with travel systems (eg pliko)
Various colours etc
Comfortable for newborn
Feels very sturdy and well made
Easy to fit without isofix base
Instructions are kept with the seat for reference
Expensive, especially if buying the isofix base too
Can be tricky to get child in and out of
We bought this even though we don't have a car, but we occasionally need a seat for hire cars and fitting into friends and family cars. It has so far fitted in really easily to all cars we have tried. It feels very secure and is fairly easy to fit. It fits well onto our Pliko pushchair too. Would recommend.

QUITE SAFE BUT HEAVY

Isofix compatible
My baby seems quite cosy and well protected
It is rather heavy and cumbersome.
In smaller cars you might find putting the seat belt around it challenging.
All in all we are quite plased with this car seat adn would recommend it to others.

OK

we have an 03 series travel system but this is the closest to it. good position for the little one and easily adjustable straps and head support
clumbersome to carry and heavy. aslo awkward to fit to the pram and onto the seat
would prefer a fixed seat i think rather than a travel system one

A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY

None. It is a total waste of money. Not practical at all.
Too heavy and baby slumps forward when asleep as it is too upright. You cant carry it far at all, even my husband found it really heavy.
Don't waste your money on this or the system to go with it. Would not buy again. In fact we were so concerned about our baby's slumping in it we brought a whole new travel system!!!
