Best Convertible Car Seats

Love our Millenias – Love our Millenias. I’ve just been in a car accident and both my toddler & baby were unharmed in their Millenia car seats. Obviously I’m now looking… Read more

for replacements. Very disappointed to see they have been discontinued. Why replace them with something bigger & dearer? The graphene is already nearly too small for my 10 month old.

Disappointing product quality and unacceptable warranty service I am extremely disappointed with both the quality of my Maxi-Cosi car seat and the… Read more

company's handling of my warranty claim.

I noticed damage to the car seat and the seatbelt, particularly where the belt comes into contact with the seat's clip. Maxi-Cosi suggested that rodents might have caused the damage, despite there being no evidence of rodents in my car. I thoroughly inspected the vehicle several times and found nothing to support this explanation.

What disappointed me most was Maxi-Cosi's response. They refused to accept my warranty claim and simply told me to dispose of the car seat. They offered no satisfactory explanation or resolution.

This is a product designed to protect children, and I expected the manufacturer to take my safety concerns seriously. Instead, I was left with a car seat I could no longer use and no support from the company.

I purchased Maxi-Cosi because I expected a reliable and safe product backed by a reputable manufacturer. Unfortunately, my experience with their warranty service has seriously damaged my trust in the brand.

I would not recommend Maxi-Cosi based on my experience, particularly given how my warranty complaint was handled.

Safe and comfortable seat – No problems with straps in double always get it done by a professional. using it for baby number 2 now and very comfortable. It has one of the highest safety rating for rear and forward facing Show details

Reasonable seat but inserts not durable – We bought one of these for each car because they are meant to be the best seats you can buy (safest and easiest to use). One seat is 7 months old and… Read more

the other is 2 months old.

The seat is easy to install by following the instructions on it. We bought the isofix version.

The seat is comfortable enough and our baby has travelled long distances and slept for a lot of it. It doesn’t breathe enough for our baby because they always eventually get a sweaty back and head in it even with the air conditioning on, tinted windows and window shade. The MaxiCosi capsule was a lot worse for overheating so got our baby out of it within 3 months.

The 7 month old seat has had its lining washed once before.

The photo shows what happened to the 7 month old insert after a delicate machine wash in our Bosch HomeProfessional using Softly. I only listed the machine and detergent to show that it’s meant to be one of the better machines you can buy and the detergent is not harsh. That was it’s second wash. I think that’s poor performance for what is meant to be a premium product that is meant to have machine washable inserts.

I was hoping to get 3-4 years out of the seat. Our baby is well behaved and not messy. The inserts probably won’t last with the way it is going and that doesn’t make it good value-for-money.

No side impact head protection – This seat has been great rear-facing, however we have recently turned it around to be front-facing and I am curious as to why there doesn't seem to… Read more

any much side-impact head protection compared to the other Britax models? His head is entirely self-supported in the seat and he can tilt his head from side to side very far, which I feel would cause a neck injury if the car was hit from the side. I am considering purchasing a different brand seat with more side cushioning.

Not recommended, experiencing head flop! – This car seat is dangerous, my daughter experiences head flop when sleeping in this car seat due to how low the base is. This product should be… Read more

recalled. Do not purchase this car seat! Others have also experienced this issue and have also been ignored. The customer service is appalling, I have contacted maxi Cosi asking for a refund via email and have not received a response. They are aware of this issue and recently pulled the product off the shelf when I went to baby bunting to check my car seat but after visiting baby bunting again yesterday to question them regarding this issue they have recently changed the fabric due to how unbreathable it is but didn't address the head flop issue with the base of the car seat is still so low. Australian consumer laws entitle me to a refund as the product is not deemed safe and I have state this to maxi Cosi. This company does not care for the safety of your child, please invest your money else where as I have wasted $500 on this car seat which I can no longer use!

* Note I am posting this here as I tried to post on the baby bunting website and they deleted it * I had two of these seats. While I was driving my 6… Read more

month old baby was asleep in the seat. I looked in the mirror and noticed she was falling out of the seat over into the middle backseat. I could see the back of her head bent over her body and freaked out. I had to pull over to on the motorway to check on her and noticed the buckle was undone on one side. I fastened it again and then continued driving. I stopped 15 minutes later to check on her because I was so stressed and the buckle was undone again! It was working fine when I did it up both times. We checked it is locking in and fastening correctly yet it was spontaneously opening. I called the manufacturer for advice and they said sand, food, dirt, fluff can get in the buckle and stop it from working and to clean it out with water. I told them there is no way any of this is in the buckle the baby is 6 months old and does not go to the beach or play in dirt, or eat food in the seat. They said in hindsight yes it is not likely and said it must be faulty and to send it back so they can review it. I told them I am sending both seats back, I don’t want them and do not trust that they are safe. The britax customer service rep said in all her years of working there she can count on her hand how many times this has happened, and to keep the second seat because its statistically not likely to be faulty as well. I asked my mum friends if this has happened to any of them and they confirmed it happened to their capsule too which is the same brand. The britax rep in store was rude and unhelpful, didn’t apologise on behalf of the company and suggested I mustn’t have fastened the seatbelt right despite using it for 6 months with no issue, even though Britax customer service admitted they have seen this before and Baby Bunting had said they had seen it once too. Baby bunting refunded both seats, britax would not. Britax were absolutely shocking. We now use maxi cosi.

Great car seat – Bought this on special at baby bunting as a 2nd car seat for hubbys car. Ended up taking the more expensive “luxury” one out of my car to take this 1… Read more

as my daughter is much more comfortable and cooler in this one and it has a much better base and does not need straitening up as much.

Love it!!

Mixed feelings – While the car seat itself seems comfortable for my grandson and the height adjustment is easy, releasing the straps to loosen or tighten is extremely… Read more

hard to do. Pressing the lever and pulling the straps is really hard and sometimes I have to pull straps from under the seat. Is this normal?

Maxi-Cosi Moda – Great car seat. Baby loved it from day 1, slept in it well and has used it through toddlerhood. Easy to install and easy to clean as well. Also recommend Maxi-Cosi customer service, they have been great to deal with. Show details

Ive bouhht many car seats but this is the best by far. Comfortable for my child and nice and slim to be able by I fit other passengers in the rear. Show details

poorly designed – I don't know why the sea keeps getting good reviews. it's difficult to adjust. when the child falls asleep there's not enough support to stop the… Read more

child's head from falling forward and flopping around loosely. I find this seat frustrating and difficult to adjust and would not recommend this seat.

Excellent car seat – This is one of the best car seats I have bought. Suits from birth up to 4yrs/18kg. Plenty of room and comfy for your child. the seat comes with… Read more

sunhood, messy mat and newborn insert. This seat is so easy to install and use and does babies rearward facing until 12kg. After 8yrs its still in perfect condition even the fabric Easy to use. And baby can stay rearward till 12kg The adjuster on the anchor point strap can be a little stiff to loosen

Best car sears ever – I love this car seat. I bought two for my boy. one for my car and the other for my hubby very easy to install, easy to take the cloth off, wash and… Read more

put it back on. the head supporter is movable up and down depending on your baby's head location. it will last up until my boy grows out of car seat.

I bought an capsule for our second baby, as this car seat can be used from 6 month, she will be straight to this car sear after the capsule. very useful!

My baby hates this seat. Not practical for a new born to 3 months so far – I get infuriated every time I put my baby in this seat because of how impractical it is for new born-infant stage, and also for how much he hates it.… Read more

It isn’t practical for a newborn as is sits upright and doesn’t tilt all the way as shown in the instructions. The head rest on the newborn insert is not adjustable and the baby is just slumped in the seat. Looks so uncomfortable for him. When you adjust the lever for the shoulder straps, the buckle area gets tight while the shoulder are still a bit loose. Very unsafe! My son is now 3 months and he still hates it every time he has to be in it, and I hate it too. Wish I spent money on a different one

I couldn’t be happier with our Mother’s Choice Adore car seat. It looks comfortable, is easy to install, and has been perfect for our family. What… Read more

really impressed me though was their customer service. I reached out to ask if they had any inserts for the seat as I had lost mine and instead of just pointing me to a purchase option, they offered to send me one completely free of charge. That level of care and support is rare these days, and it really shows how much the brand values its customers. Between the quality of the seat itself and the outstanding service, I’d recommend Mother’s Choice to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy car seat.

Perfect would not have any other brand – Wonderful product , I would not put my baby in any other . It delivers all features mentioned Show details

We were given this amazing opportunity to test the InfaSecure Pilot seat for our first child, we had originally been given another but this one is so… Read more

much easer for us to use. Being brand new parents we are delighted with this as it is so easy to put our little one in there and take him out.

Every aspect of the InfaSecure Pilot seat oozes class and the quality of materials used is second to none compared to a lot of the seats we saw when originally shopping for one. Trust us, as first time parents and going by the advice of our parents, you can't skimp on safety and having our little one comfortable is so important to all of us.

What delighted me was how easy it was for me to be able to put my newborn into the seat. I just had to move the straps out of the way, put his arms and legs through and then buckle him in. The whole time he was very comfortable and didn’t fuss or cry in the seat at all. I also liked how I am able to adjust the seat so it’s suitable for his age and height. Getting him out of the seat was very easy, the buckle only had to be lightly pressed for it to come undone and then I was able to move the straps to take him out.

What could be improved?

What I think could be improved is the way to install it. While installing it, we struggled to get the seat to be tight so that it wasn’t moving around while he was in the seat. In saying that, this is our first baby so we are very new to this and once installed we couldn't be any happier with it.

Best car seat! – We purchased this car seat for our first born by the recommendation of a staff member of our local BB. We have a small 2 door car so we were after… Read more

something on the smaller side without compromising on safety and this one meets all of our needs! It’s fairly easy to get our little one in it - considering the size of our car - and super easy to adjust. Cannot recommend this product enough!

I’m not sure how easy it would have been to install as we had it done at BB.

The Grandeur Onyx was easy to install, which was the only positive. Unfortunately, on the first wash the lining of the cover completely… Read more

disintegrated. It was washed alone, exactly as instructed.

When I contacted Infa Group, they dismissed the issue and claimed it must have been washed with a tissue, despite the photographs clearly showing the lining falling apart due to poor quality. This explanation was inaccurate and frustrating.

Overall, I’m very unhappy with both the product quality and the customer service. I would not recommend this product based on my experience.

I rarely write reviews, but my recent experience with Maxi-Cosi was so outstanding, it deserves recognition. I reached out needing a replacement… Read more

part, and from the moment I spoke with Meg from customer service, I felt completely looked after.

Meg was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to help. Although the part I needed was out of stock, she took the time to check my warranty—and to my amazement, it was still covered under Maxi-Cosi’s amazing lifetime warranty. That kind of peace of mind is rare these days!

Since the part wasn’t available, Meg arranged for me to return the product to Baby Bunting for either a full replacement or store credit. The whole process was clear, fair, and handled with care.

It’s not just about great products (which Maxi-Cosi absolutely has), it’s about standing behind them—and this company does that better than anyone. Huge thanks to Meg and the Maxi-Cosi team. You’ve earned a lifelong customer!

Safety issue – I have used this for the past 18 months and my now 2yr8mth old can access the buckle to loosen the straps himself. This is a massive safety concern and I would not recommend this seat. Show details

My 1year old legs are so cramped in rear facing.she had more leg room in the baby capsule Show details

Very small fit, would not recommend – At 5 months old, baby is very squished in this seat (not a big baby), the material does not breathe, baby gets sweaty after even a small trip. While… Read more

this seat is slim, it takes up a lot of room behind the front seat. The seat is very deep and as a newborn baby’s head was not well supported. I will need to buy a new car seat quite soon. Baby cries every time they are put in this seat and it’s quite difficult putting baby in.

Products are reliable I have very good experience with infa group

Loved the ease of installation The sleek design allows me to fit 2 of these seats in the back seat and allows space to the teenager to sit in the back aswell. Show details

The click tight mechanism begins to jam over time. The whole point of purchasing this seat is to be able to safely and easily install it. Show details

We bought this so we could keep our tall toddler rear facing as long as possible. It sits more upright while remaining rear facing which he loves as… Read more

he can see a bit more out the windows of the car. It feels very secure and I know it will be great for him as he continues to grow too.

Ticks all the boxes car seat – has a car seat and wasn't overly happy with it but got this one and have loved it. bab loves it and even doesn't mind long trips in it. Would definitely get it again if I had too. Show details

fantastic, easy to use, love it – i love my Safe-n-Sound Galaxy, i initially bought it as an extra seat as it was very affordable and S-n-S has such a good name. this seat is really… Read more

easy to use, easy to move between vehicles and from newborn to toddler. it is also really easy to adjust and clean. when we found out we were expecting our first baby i was going to go and buy a new carseat but decided to keep this one for her as it is still in great condition. it is very reasonabley priced, stays rear facing up to 12kg, very easy to install and adjust, feels very sturdy and safe once installed, no movement in seat. the newborn insert is quite thin and small, our baby was big so it wasnt an issue but for a prem or small baby i would probably by another insert to put in
