Thanks (y)

Yes you are right buggy baby doesn’t appear on TCB but kiddies kingdom does https://www.kiddies-kingdom.com/4-11yrs/46726-britax-kidfix-iii-s-group-2-3-car-seat-black-ash.html?source=aw&utm_source=AWIN&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=AWIN&sv_campaign_id=269979&sv_tax1=affiliate&sv_tax3=digidip+EU+-+Content+and+Incentivized&sv_tax4=0&sv_affiliate_id=269979&awc=2191_1645004570_2b94cce0efde6062337d98e714dd2447

Britax publish a list of cars that their seats have been tested in on their website: https://www.britax-romer.co.uk/fitfinder Just be mindful that 'fit' doesn't necessarily mean 'easy to use in real life'. My Mini Countryman has seatbelt stalks in the back that only swivel up and down, and have no side-to-side movement. Britax say the Adventure model (one of the narrowest on the market) fits, and it technically does, but it's difficult to engage the belt in and out.

Just wondering how you got TCB as BuggyBaby doesn't appear to be on there? Thanks

Thanks for sharing your first deal @Sean_Williams2093 (y)

ISOfix fittings are much more secure for either front or rear facing seats. They attach the seat directly to the car's under frame. Those little ones deserve that extra protection for a few tenners more!

It is the law in the uk that they have to be rear facing till 15 months now. This is from the gov website.

In the UK too, up to 2 years of age or based on height. However, the comment suggested this is not suitable for under 9 months. Rear facing or front facing, this car seat is from 9 months onwards.

In several European countries rear-facing is recommended as high as you're able, for a reason.

We'll also be rear facing as long as reasonable and have just bought a different Britax for our 1 yr old. The Swedish tests do seem to be the benchmark

The safest are Swedish plus tested, which aren't all isofix. Totally depends on seat and testing but belted seats can be safer than Isofix depending on brand etc I think it's more the idea that parents think their children are uncomfortable. Children are far more flexible than adults and it's a question of what they are used to. I'll be rear facing mine as long as possible because it's the safest!

My 3yr old twin grandchidren are still fine in Joie rear facing seats. Somehow they fold up their legs easily without complaint. They have quite large (safety) mirrors attached so they can view parents and road ahead.

I'm interested in the outgrown rear facing experiences...we've got an axkid (something or other that cost a fortune but got the best safety ratings) and our nearly 4yr old is still fine rear facing in it. She's a similar height to her nursery friends so don't think she's tiny. Is this a seat specific problem? Or do I live in a part of the country with small children? :/

Isofix is only rated upto around 30kg combined weight for child and chair. Once kids are 4-5 they're generally too heavy (with the chair) to safely rely on isofix. Whereas their weight is sufficient to safely use a seatbelt to restrain the seat and child
