The seat is large and soft with a wonderful feel. It also has the added benefit of machine washable fabrics.
It uses the i-Size regulation, which uses height to classify carseats instead of weight. This allows for more fitting and better side protection against impact.

It can be used rear-facing (4-40 lbs and 19"-40"), forward-facing (2-65 lbs and 29"-49") and as a belt-positioning booster (40-100 lbs and 43"-52"). The seat meets the most current child car safety standards R129/i-Size, and is compatible with the i-Size ISOFIX base.
It is equipped with a number of impressive safety features, including Dorel’s G-Cell Side Impact Protection which is built into its headrest. This provides greater protection in case of a side-on collision. It also has a tiny but strong shell that absorbs the energy of an accident, keeping your child protected. This car seat also has the torso side impact protection, which protects your child's chest in an accident.

One thing to keep in mind when using this car seat is that it's top heavy, and you may require towels to keep the seat upright during installation. It doesn't also have a lock-off for the lower anchors and only has a line on the decal to indicate the proper angle to install. It is recommended that children waits until they are at least five years old before switching to a high-back booster. However, this car seat is only able to accommodate most children until age five due to its low headrest height.

This ensures you never leave your home without your child securely secured in the back of your vehicle. We had to be very careful when threading the seat belt because it is very heavy and difficult to move.
This seat is priced on the higher end of the spectrum for the group 0+ car seat, particularly compared to cheaper alternatives with similar safety and comfort features. We think this is mainly because it offers extended rearward facing travel up to 4 years, something that is not the case with other brands of seats. offer.
