BabyStyle Oyster Car Seat

My baby looks really comfortable in it, she does move and fits perfect around her and doesn’t look uncomfortable at all. The only down side I could find is, when fitted into a smaller car it is difficult as it’s a bit bulky and takes up quite a bit of room. Love the head rest keeps my babies head steady material is easy to wash if it gets any spills on it.

Nice affordable car seat. My daughter was comfortable in this seat until she was 10 months old! It was easy to put in/out the car and put on/off the chassis. Will be using it again for baby no2!

Starting with the positives, this is one of the lightest car seats we have owned (and we have had a few!) and the first one that actually fit into our ancient Renault Megane Scenic with its ridiculously short seatbelts without having to be wrestled in. Our daughter looked fairly comfy in it and it lasted her a lot longer than we originally thought it was going to. It did look very narrow and less comfy on days where she was wearing chunkier cardigans and tops as we came towards the end of its "weight recommendation".
The downside is that this does have a decidedly flimsy plasticy feel, not as solid as seats like Mothercare own and Silvercross. This does help with the weight when carrying it and of course it has still had to conform to safety standards so that is just my own perception. It did make me feel less confident using it for long car journeys just in case of accidents on rhe motorway etc. However it is easy to strap in and out which, as she was the third child, was a big plus as nobody under the age of 6 seems to like waiting more than 30 seconds for mum to do anything! All in all a good car seat, just with the downside of the perceived weakness.

Really like this car seat, it seems comfortable and comes with a hood and car seat foot cover. Easy to adjust the straps etc too. The only small issue is the hood is a bit weak so doesn't stay up when moving. But it's an addition I never had on my other car seat with my first so can't complain.

Serves it purpose, but I just felt it was cheaply made and not much too it. The cosy toes cannot be attached when it is in the car, and the material is flimsy.

We were bought this and it was great - much better than our previous one. Easy to fit in the car and baby was very comfortable. Great value for money.

I like this car seat but for me is too heavy. I like the design of this, it is nice and comfortable. I can take this with me, it's good option.

I used this car seat for my oldest son. It is great value for money, much cheaper than other from birth car seats. This is reflected in the lack of isofix compatibility, which although not essential, is useful. It's easy to install with a seatbelt, the same as a standard car seat.
It's very lightweight, which is great for moving in and out the car. It sometimes feels a little flimsy but it's tested to normal safety standards so it must be safe!
Mine is ocean blue colour which is lovely, although Oyster don't offer the pattern options like Cosatto do!
Overall it was a good purchase as I was on a budget, it's small and light.

Came included in the travel system lovely car seat does what its supposes to, easy to fit and use. Love that comes with a footmuff / apron keeps baby nice and snug. Has hood too but this could do worth a bit more support of it stays up better. Otherwise fantastic car seat and will last ages

Love this can't wait to see my baby in it my best friend has one she said it was the best thing she had brought for her baby she feel that he safe in there at all times.

Lovely fabric and attachments like the sun canopy and foot warmer but I find securing the seat belt into the safety point at the back of the seat very difficult.

Positives first. The car seat seems pretty sturdy, and is rear facing so suitable from birth. It isn't too heavy to carry, and it fits easily onto the oyster frame as part of the travel system.

For me there were a few more negatives than positives. The seat is relatively upright, which means it isn't great for a newborn. My daughter's head sometimes goes very far forward onto her chest, which I don't think is very safe and it bothers me. Also, the hood is rubbish. It offers almost zero protection from the sun.
Overall, I probably wouldn't recommend, and I had bought a different car seat before my daughter was 9w old.

It’s really good for newborns very lieghtwieght good colours except hood is very flimsy and if it was a tad windy would blow down

Bought this for my little one. First of all it’s not comfortable, its not soft inside and looks like it’s very cheap material! Paid money but not happy with this product at all.

We purchased this car seat with the whole Oyster 2 travel system. Amazing quality and I couldn't fault anything apart from the car seat. From day one we had issues, our son just looked squashed and uncomfortable, the seat belt clip at the back was very narrow making it difficult to insert the seat belt. When you've just had a baby this can be quite difficult to do due to the amount of faffing!
Other than those issues it's a nice looking car seat and matched the colour pack of the carry cot and stroller.
When we came to purchasing the car seat adaptors they had sold out every where.
All in all its an ok car seat, but I wouldn't recommend it.
