Would highly recommend this, easy to use. I had a car accident and my son was 6 months and I could get him out of the car within minutes as you don’t have to mess around with a seat belt. Bought another one straight after as I couldn’t be without it. -

I love having this. I won’t use my car seat without it. It provides me such peace of mind by letting me know the car seat is correctly fitted. It is so easy to fit and is universal to majority of cars that allowing it to be transferred to grandparents when needed. - Strengths:

First child so definitely a worried about him being safe in the car when driving, first journey home was with your average baby seat that we got with a pram.. it was okay but I felt it was not secure enough with just a seatbelt so sat in the back every time! Eventually we got an iso fix base for a maxi cosi car seat.. OMG, I could relax!! I heard it click into the isofix part of the car and all my worries disappeared about my baby not being safe. I clicked him onto the base in his car seat, saw the green lights appear to tell me everything is A-OK and that he wouldn’t be sliding anywhere in the journey! I then sat in the passenger seat and enjoyed a car journey for the first time since having my little darling! Well worth every penny to know your pride and joy is as safe as can be. - Strengths:

I do love this isofix base as it is quite simple to install! I changed from another one to this one and glad I did! But the problem I have is when I try to clip the car seat on sometimes I have to push down really hard for it to clip in. I don’t know if that’s the same with all the bases or just mine! I love how there’s an electronic bit at the front that tells you that it’s clipped in ok! - Strengths:

The family inso fix base is so quick and easy to use and fit into your car, the only problem i have is pressing the button in the take the car seat out but that's because i have put on stupid long fake nails so it's my fault really, the iso fix base is very easy to clean, tells you when the seat isn't on properly or it's not fix into the seat right, also bleeps when the floor stick is out of place, very ideal when you are on your own with more than one child to try and sort out, we've just bought the next size cat seat up to go onto this base and it is just as easy and looks super comfy. Definitely recommend the family iso fix base. Also makes me happy knowing my babies are strapped in and super safe. - Strengths:

We bought this seat to go with our maxi cosi baby carrier seat with every intention of buying the next seat that also fits on to it. However we did no purchase the second seat but we have still had our moneys worth as we are currently using it for baby no2! Very easy to know if the seat is fixed on correctly as it beeps and lights up green which gives you reassurance the seat is as secure as it can be and your baby is safe. Takes all of 30 seconds to do and a simple pull handle to release. - Strengths:

This item is a must have! You literally stick the car seat on top and click it into place takes 2 seconds. When i have gone in another persons car with out this base the car seat is really fiddly and when your babys crying it gets stressful. So its one less stress to worry about when going out in the car. Easy to fit and easy to remove if needed. I got a good price as i purchase from an independent store with my car seat and pram so would recommend doing the same. Only small down side is wish more car seats fitted onto this base as my next car seat my not fit so will have to purchase another type of iso fix hopefully will be as good as this one. - Strengths:

We purchased this ISOFIX for our first child and are now using it for our second. Throughout its use, it has been durable and very easy to use and fit into our cars. It’s quite heavy but reassuringly so. As new parents when we first got this product, we wanted to know that we were fitting the infant seat correctly so part of the attraction of this base was that there is an LED display that lights up when the different parts of the base are fitted correctly and also the base beeps when the seat clicks in correctly.
Overall we have found no fault with this item. I would thoroughly recommend anyone in the market for an ISOFIX. - Strengths:

We got the car seat as it was included in our travel system package through Mamas and Papas, we were pleasantly surprised.
Adapters make the a great for convenience. The isofix is great just one click are your ready to go.
I cannot really fault the seat, the handle can be stiff at times you need a bit of a knack! Overall this seat is definitely worth the money and will make a baby. - Strengths:

Although this was quite an extravagant purchase I wouldn't be without it. I had to fasten my car seat in the normal way the other day and it was such a faff!
The lights and noise help to make sure you know that the seat is in safe and you don't have any doubts about whether it is in correctly.
Although it is quite bulky I can still fit another person in the middle seat next to it. - Strengths:

You can’t put a price on safety!
Once I worked out how to use install and uninstall it (via YouTube, as instruction manual was not clear) it’s very simple to do so.
My mind is at rest knowing baby is safely in the car. With three children it’s easy to forget to do something or not do something properly. However this base leaves no room for mistakes which is great.
It’s not bulky, which allows me to have two booster seats alongside it all at the back of the car. Perfect!!! - Strengths:

After having 3 babies and sick of strapping in a car seat I thought I would try a base and how much easier is having the base ? Just click in and go and even with one hand , it doesn’t take up a massive space like I thought it may do, I have to say the only down side is that you can knock the arm easily and it starts beeping that something isn’t right... but all in all I am so glad I invested in it. - Strengths:
