The integrated isofix connection and top tether strap allows for easy installation and peace of mind knowing the car seat is correctly installed in your vehicle. It has the added built-in safety of Side Impact Cushion technology to reduce the force from any side collision. One of the real bonus points is that the Gravity has to be the fold. It is a magic folding stroller - yes that's right, it folds by itself eliminating the need for you to bend down. This is exceptionally useful when you have your baby on your hip and you need to fold your stroller. It can be folded with just one hand. Grows as your child grows: Solar is the only car seat you need to buy from 15 months to 12 years. Simply adjust the seat from Group 1 to Group 2/3 mode once your little one reaches a suitable weight/height.

The wheels are small. And the wheelbase is neat meaning you can easily fit through tight doorways, turnstyles and onto public transport and it also means that the stroller turns on a sixpence! The award-winning Solar Group 1-2-3 isofix and recline car seat grows with your child. It is suitable for use from 15 months to 12 years of age, and a perfect fit for your 9kg to 36kg passengers. It comes complete with isofix connectors and 2 x sun shades, so that your child can travel in comfort, safety and style! My husband installed the car seat, as its quite big and heavy to lift. It's all in one piece ready to fit in the car so he found it really easy to fit; taking only a couple of minutes. He also removed the seat later to swap into our other car and this was similarly straightforward.The basket is a great size for a compact fold stroller and it holds more than you expect. Slipping a changing bag in there is possible - we even managed to fit a few coats in there too. Seat The seat spent the majority of its time in the Dacia, but was also moved around to a selection of other new vehicles including a Mazda CX-60 and a Suzuki Across, which meant that we needed it to be easily portable and easily clipped in and out when we’re running late for the school run. Once your little one has outgrown their Group 0 or Group 0+ rear-facing car seat, it’s time to move to the next stage. The Solar Group 1-2-3 covers all your car seat needs, from 9kg (approximately 15 months) until your child no longer needs to use a booster seat. In Group 1 mode, the Solar is used with the included 5-point safety harness to keep your child secure and correctly positioned in the seat. It might be a consideration, for those looking to use with a newborn, that it is fixed in place so you cannot carry it out of the car, place it on a buggy or use it with a travel system. But the ease of the 360 spin, recline option and high level of safety with the ISOFIX, I feel, are a worthy trade. Final verdict As well as the main benefit of a rotating seat growing with your child, the other huge bonus comes when you are getting your little one in and out of the car. By spinning the seat around so your child is facing you through the car door it makes the angles notably easier for all concerned. Rather than having to twist around to get a wriggling baby, or toddler, into the seat you can approach the car straight on.

Once your child reaches the weight limit of 18kg in Group 1 mode, you can adapt the Solar to be used in Group 2/3 mode. At this point, the 5 point harness is no longer used, and the child is secured using the car’s own seatbelt. The adjustable headrest means the seat will grow with your child, so you’re safe in the knowledge that they’re well protected in your vehicle. We were looking for a comfortable car seat that would last us a few years, with a high level of safety. The Prime stroller bundle includes a footwarmer, rain cover and protective Newborn Cocoon, which is suitable from birth to 9kg (approx. 6 months*) and can be fitted to the seat in the rear or forward-facing position, to provide an extra layer of support and comfort for bubba. High quality product with unbeatable customer service: with fast, free delivery you could be using the Solar car seat within days! The suspension on the Gravity is located on the sides of the pushchair chassis. It performs well, gives a soft ride for your passenger and also looks pretty funky too!Features Improved Side Impact Protection including pop-out impact panels and supportive newborn liner The leg height can be adjusted thanks to a small button and it is relatively easily done, but it doesn’t have any kind of indicator to show whether it is seated properly. Just press the palm button and slide the fold button to the side simultaneously and the stroller concertinas down on itself with zero effort required from you. Built-in isofix connectivity for easy installation: the clear red/green indicators will show you once the seat is correctly installed, while the top tether strap adds stability, giving you invaluable peace of mind.
