mixed
Reviewers praise
  • Narrow profile makes it easy to fit three-across or use on airplanes
  • Lightweight and straightforward to install with seat belt or LATCH
  • Flat back without bulky headrest works well for helmeted children and newborns
Reviewers push back
  • Maxes out at forty pounds in both rear-facing and forward-facing modes
  • Harness must be manually re-threaded through the seat back to adjust height
  • Minimum height of nineteen inches means very small newborns and preemies will not fit

The only car seat on the market that you don't need a bae for! This seat looks luxury, feels fantastic and is of a really high quality. It easily clicks in and out of the isofix points and you do not need a clunky base, making it so much easier between vehicles! I have already recommended this seat to lots of people and will continue to! Rosie · johnlewis.com
