This is a fantastic car seat. Can be used from birth to up to 18kg (approx 4 years)
Has a click & safe harness tensioning conformation, which I found it very helpful. It’s extremely comfortable and my son enjoyed every minute. I also loved using the extended recline position when he fall asleep. - Strengths:

I bought this for my 12 month old little girl. As a single mother, I was happy to find it was easily installed without the help of anyone else. It fits nicely into my little Peugeot. It must be really comfortable too as my little girl fell asleep after a few minutes of being in the car seat. It can be rear facing or front facing which is fantastic for us as I plan to keep my little girl rear facing for a good while yet. I got it in the rose colour and it's beautiful as well as safe! I'm yet to find a fault with this product.

We bought this car seat as a next size up seat and have been very impressed. We still use it as a spare seat it is that good. I love the fact it can recline back so when my little one falls asleep his head doesn't fall forward. I will be keeping this seat for when my 2nd child needs a seat this size. - Strengths:

My son has been through 4 car seats, each one we didn’t really get along with, until we found this one!
It’s excellent! He is 3 years old and usually hates going in the car, but he seems really comfortable now!
My daughter, who is, 9 months old really doesn’t like the car, this is her first transition from an infant car seat. I love this car seat for her because, she can finally see out the window and she seems so much more happier!
Definitely recommend:) - Strengths:

This car seat is good value for money. My child looks comfortable in it and I like the fact that it reclines well. It is easy to put in. I have used it in both rear facing and forward facing. I would say it's a bit fiddly getting my toddler in when it is rear facing facing as the strap gets in the way but fine in forward facing - Strengths:

My daughter had been using this car seat from around 9 months until just before her 4 birthday. She was always comfy in it and never got head flop when she fell asleep. Only issue is occasionaly the belt pully bit would get caught on the back of the straps but other than that a fab purchase! -

Currently using in the rear facing position. Daughter is very comfortable and I feel she is safe and secure in this seat. Would like it to be able to tilt whilst in the rear facing position but does not do this until it is forward facing. Safety is first and it ticks all the boxes for safety and comfort. - Strengths:

The only issue is if the straps are fastened the wrong side of the seatbelt it stops the car seat from reclining. Otherwise a really good car seat, loved by my daughter and she seems comfortable and happy in it. - Strengths:

I absolutely love the look of this car seat and how my daughter fits in it. I love how it reclines to make her naps in the car more comfortable. It is very easy to strap into the car and looks very sturdy and feels safe. I don't want my daughter to grow out of it! - Strengths:

I do love this car seat as its so easy to do and undone the belt and its very spacious for my child, i looks comfortable and i have had no worries. It is a bit of a hassle if you have to take it in and out the car. I love the design and colours of mine as I like plain furniture. - Strengths:

The car seat is comfortable when it has the insert in but when the child outgrows the insert it doesn’t look comfy.
The straps of the harness of the seat get tangled with the car seat belt all the time which makes it extra long and difficult to get child on the seat. - Strengths:

We bought this seat as my son became too big for his 0 car seat at 7 months and we still wanted to keep him rearward facing.
I really like the seat, it's fairly easy to fit, converts to forward facing when your child is ready and can be used rearward facing from birth.
The only downside is that even in the recline position (rearward facing) the seat is still very upright and my son will then try to pull himself forward a lot. - Strengths:

I have 2 of them car seats ( I have twins) it took me a long time to find a car seat narrow enough to put all 3 of my children on the back of my car ( withing our price range) This car seat was the answer. Twins love being in their car seats. They look very comfortable. Easy to recline once they asleep. Reasonably priced. - Strengths:

This seat is so easy to use. We have one in each car. The only downside is that you can’t wash the cover.
My daughter is 4 and has used it since she was 9 months old. Doesn’t want to give it up as ‘big girl seats aren’t as comfy!’.
Out of the mouths of babes!! - Strengths:

Bought this seat around 3 months ago, and so far its been a great seat. Our 9 month old is absolutely loving it at the moment. She's always comfy, and as rear facing its sometimes hard for the little ones to see what's going, however with this seat she has a great view out of the window and loves being able to see so much! The straps are super easy to loosen and tighten up again. Is super sturdy when installed too. Definitely a great purchase, and would definitely recommend it to anyone. Its not the cheapest out there, but is very, very well built. - Strengths:

It was recommended to me as I have a car that not many seat fit a 11 qashqai , but when rear facing its very hard to put child in and out the car as the straps are in the way , so as soon my baby turned 15 months I moved her forward facing which is not what I wanted , I wanted to leave her rear as much as possible , now forward facing , she manages to remove her arms from the straps even when it’s very tight , who ever it’s on the front seat needs to move forward otherwise she can’t have her legs down and there’s no much space , but in my mothers car fits well , so I guess it depends what car you have for the comfort of the child - Strengths:

Bought this with no idea what we were after and it's great! Perfect for newborn as comes with the newborn insert, can have rear facing for ages! When forward facing the seat still reclines and has plenty of room in it, my only question is could the straps move more? Great value for money as only £80 when purchased, lb is now 15 months and still fantastic! - Strengths:

Once strapped into a vehicle it's great and sturdy and I know my young one is safe but getting it in and out of vehicles is just awful, it also doesn't fit in minibuse seats and the seat belt doesn't attach properly with or without the seat belt extension.
