Easy to fix into isofix base

My baby looked squished and uncomfortable

I had this car seat as part of a silver cross travel system. I found that it was easy to fix onto the isofix base and the pram chassis that I had but as my little girl was prem, she looked very small and squished in it. I didn’t find that it gave her much head support and the slant in the product caused her head to tilt forward more than I would have liked. I ended up changing car seats but would recommend for average sized babies. The good of the car seat also doesn’t come far enough over for my liking. - Strengths:

This was my first and only choice of car seat when shopping for one before my baby arrived. I like it's comparability with the pram wheels via two adapters which are included in the sale. Even the midwife commented at the hospital that these are the best car seats around. My then newborn was very safe and secure in this. And even now when she grows bigger the newborn insert can be removed and adjusted for growth. I just think they are better value for money when on offer. I purchased from Mothercare. As part of a deal otherwise they are £149.99 I would also advise to purchase compatible isofix base makes life so much easier. - Strengths:

I really like this product in the terms that it is very comfy in texture but I don’t like the way that the chair is so up like. A normal seat .. my baby was born 6 weeks premature and she sit very uncomfortably in the car seat so what I need to do is put a blanket under to help her sit right so her neck don’t hurt .. but apart from that it’s a good product and for good price .. just needs to come with instructions because for first time mum like me that has never used a car seat before it takes a little time to learn how to do it alone.

Got this car seat free with my pushchair. Have been using it as a second car seat without isofix for my first and second baby. Sure it’s safe but I find the straps don’t sit right, baby always looks squished and not comfortable. The pros are that it has plastic not metal seatbelt part and the hood is separate to the handle so can be left up if carrying the car seat. Not sure I would pay full price for this but handy as a back up and great it comes free in many deals with the pushchairs ! - Strengths:

I got this in the exclusive Chelsea pack and I love it. It’s so easy to fit the seat belt into the blue sections making it a piece of cake. Especially as I’ve never had to use a car seat before! It’s really easy to use the adapters for the chassis and has the sun shade as well. It’s also really easy to lengthen the straps and my son looks super cosy in there. - Strengths:

It is a great car seat my lo loves sitting in it so I can only assume it's comfy it feels lovely and padded and it's great that you can take bit out so it can grow with the baby for a little while only downside is it is a naturally heavy car seat especially compared to some other brands but I love the design. The car seat works well for us and our family. - Strengths:

Great car seat, easy to use, my son always falls asleep in it so it must be comfortable, sun visor would be better if it was bigger, but an overall great car seat and connects to the travel system pram ideal when nipping to the shops.

Easy to fit into the car and to get child in and out, big enough to last up to 12 month. Child seems comfy in it. Only down side is that the hood isn’t big so doesn’t offer a lot of shade for when being used on the pram. - Strengths:

I think is a nice carseat but has plenty space for improvement. Hood is way to small doesn't prevent fron any sun as its just to small. Also my daughters seemed very squashed in the seat. And hates getting in it. But whilst on travel absolutely fine. it fits well in my car and doesn't take too much space. A bit heavy. But looks safe which is most important.

I had this carseat and my little girl looked so uncomfortable in it. Like she was too little to be in it even though it's from birth and she was an 8lb 8oz baby! I had to change to a different car seat and she looks so much better in it! I wouldn't recommend this one at all! -

Brought this for my baby for her first car seat as I had he silvercross pushchair, the car seat is very secure and baby was very comfy in it with all the padding and it was very easy to use and having the pram as well made everything much easier. Would highly recommend this car seat especially if purchasing a silvercross pushchair. - Strengths:

Easy to clean, fully padded for when your new born comes home. It has soft pads on the straps so the straps don't dig into baby's neck/body. If bought with one of the Silver Cross travel systems it have be clicked onto the pram frame if your quickly nipping to the shops etc and baby is sleeping an you don't want to wake them. - Strengths:

This car seat is great value for money. Fits on to multiple silvercross pushchair frames, easy to attach and remove. Straps adjust easy as the baby grows and it is easy to install in to the car.
The downside to this product is that it becomes very heavy. Too heavy to carry further than a few metres without causing strain on your arm. I also didn’t think the baby looked very comfortable when in the car seat. - Strengths:

I got the car seat as part of a deal with my pushchair but if i hadn't then i wouldn't of chosen this one as the hood is pretty much useless and doesn't provide Any shelter from the elements. The seat is pretty heavy and iv found that after about five months it is easier to carry my child without the seat. It is easy to strap into the car using the seat belt and it clips onto my buggy very easy with the adapters. I like that this car seat has an attachable foot cover. - Strengths:

Love it we use it with the isofix base and so easy it just clips on! Baby seems so comfortable and most of the time falls asleep in her car seat. The only downside is that the hood doesn't shade her as much as I would like it too but there are other products on the market to fix that. - Strengths:

This car seat is fantastic. You can buy it in many colours but we got it in sand to match or wayfarer.
You’ll notice when using that the car seat has blue markings either side for seat belts which is a fantastic idea for you to know that you’ve managed to securely fasten in your baby.
The comfort inside the seat is astonishing and perfect for a baby! - Strengths:

I bought this for my newborn. When she was born up to 8/9 weeks old her head lolled in the seat to the point I was going to buy a new one. I recommend buying and additional head support if it’s not a newborn. Also the strap adjusts are hidden. I didn’t know where they was and neither did my friend who has the same seat. She only found out by taking the seat back to the shop as her babies head was lolling too.
However I love the colour options available

Overall I don't like this car seat I find it really small feel like my child is squashed in it all the time had to take the foam from the underneither because his back was arching when in it. The hood is terrible not big enough at all I also find it heavy although I do like I goes on to the pram down side is u have to make sure u don't loose the clip otherwise it won't fit on. - Strengths:

I have used this car seat since birth and have had no problems. The newborn insert provided great support, and is easily removable. I also like that you can adjust the head support as baby grows. It fits into the car lovely and had easy instructions to follow. I have also tried this with an isofix and it is so simple, and safe!
I also like that there are 5 settings to move the handle, this has come in handy when attaching toys for my little one.
I have the travel system and it's so easy to attach the car seat onto the pram chassis.
The only criticism that I can find is that sometimes the buckle needs a fair bit of pressure to fasten and undo (not ideal if you have longer nails), and the buttons to move the handle have to both be pressed in at the same time, so when you're trying to move the handle while it's in the car, it can be a little awkward.
Overall I would definitely recommend this product. - Strengths:

I purchased this car seat as a bundle with my silver cross wayfarer for my little boy.
Really found this product easy to use and great to fit in car with or without isofix. My son was born 4 weeks prem so this car seat lasted us quite some time particularly when you can remove the booster wedge from inside the seat from 4 months onwards. This product was also easy to clean in the washing machine with no problems.
Like most car seats today this one is able to clip onto the base of any silver cross pushchair providing you have purchased the car seat clip adapters making it easy to nip in and out of the car to do errands.
Great product one happy mummy. - Strengths:
