The Joie iSpin 360 Grow looks similar to the Joie iSpin 360 except it goes up til 7 years/125cm/25kg. The Silver Cross Motion All Size 360 goes all the way up to 12 years/150cm. Both can ERF til 4 years/18kg. The Silver Cross Motion All Size 360 is a car seat that is designed to cater to children of all ages, from newborns up to 12-year-olds. It features a 360-degree rotating seat that can be turned to face all directions for easy access and installation. The seat can also be reclined in multiple positions to cater to the comfort of your child during long trips. The Nextkid is a smart and comfortable booster seat that should keep your child safe and comfortable until they can safely sit in a car with just a seatbelt. For the Crash Safety, the Silver Cross Motion All-Size 360 achieved an impressive 2.5 rating. This is after the seat was rigorously crash tested in 14 different configurations, the highest number of crash tests assessed for any ADAC tested product.

Additional costs include inserts, in some cases, as well as the Isofix base. The latter doesn’t come with all baby car seats as standard and, although the connections are the same, many manufacturers are now offering their own proprietary bases for a price. Some manufacturers ship a base with their car seat, so it’s worth factoring this in when looking at the prices. A slightly more expensive price with the base may be better value in the long run. What else should I know about? i-size vs non i-size doesn't actually make a huge deal of difference to overall safety. The main difference is that i-size seats have to pass a side impact test, so a non i-size seat with good side impact safety can sometimes be just as good. Sophie: The depth of the product is very deep, we have a large family car and the passenger seat has to be moved very far forward to accommodate the seat. I also think it would be handy to have a removable bar attachment to allow for toys to be added to keep smaller babies entertained, my daughter really missed this feature. Product Information It also features installation guides for Cybex’s car seats, as well as how-to videos. What’s more, you can buy the Sensor Safe clip separately and it works with Cybex Platinum and Gold car seats.

So... long story short, I would probably get another Joie i-Spin, or a Britax Dualfix i-size, or maybe the Joie Spin Safe. Although that one isn't i-size, it does have the same pop out bits on the sides like the i-Spin does so it has better side impact safety than the original Joie 360. Or Recaro Salia is on offer at Uber Kids for a similar price point to all of these and the Silver Cross, the Recaro is a nice seat too. Key specs – Group: 0+/1; Item weight: 15kg; Attachment method: Isofix; Additional features: 3yr guarantee, washable cover, 90 and 360-degree rotation Key specs – Group: 0/0+; Item weight: 2.8kg; Attachment method: Isofix or seatbelt; Additional features: Pushchair attachment available, no-rethread harness The other downside of the all in one seats is that the boosters on them are really bulky and huge due to having to perform the job of a harnessed seat earlier on. The best part of swapping to a booster seat is that you get to ditch the bulky seat and swap to this more lightweight and easy one, so you shoot yourself in the foot a bit by going for an all stages one. The former means you don’t have to lug a heavy car seat with you. The downside is you’ll likely have to wake the baby to do so. The latter means you can easily transport a sleeping baby from the car to the house or onto a buggy.Easy clean, sustainable eco fabrics made from recycled plastic bottles, alongside a breathable bamboo soft touch fabric, great for sensitive skin Key specs – Group: Children 4-12 years or 150cm in height; Item weight: 7.5kg; Attachment method: Isofix; Additional features: Adjustable headrest ADAC test front impact (40mph) and side impact (31mph). More important than the speed tested is the rate of deceleration (how hard the impact is). ADAC test methods use more aggressive decelerations than the regulation ADAC testing is conducted independently from the manufacturers/brands. They select the seats themselves, purchasing them without informing the brands until the testing is conducted. They test in a whole range of configurations depending on the product, but typically identifying the worst performing configurations and testing to them. For the Silver Cross Motion All Size 360 14 different configurations were tested. The Maxi-Cosi Coral car seat fits via a separate FamilyFix3. This connects to the Isofix anchors in your car or it can be secured using the seat belt of your car. It’s not cheap and will only last until your baby is a year old (or 12kg), but we think it’s worth it.

Suitable from birth all the way through to 145cm (12 years approx.), the Motion All Size 360 Car Seat from Silver Cross is an R129 approved, all stages car seat with 360° rotation. The Motion All Size can effortlessly switch between rearward and forward facing positions to make it easier getting your child in and out of the car seat. The Silver Cross motion full 360 swivel function enables you to have the seat either rearward or forward-facing. Because of its larger protective shell, your little one can ride rearward in comfort for longer. It also has side loading, for easy access when getting them in and out (with less fuss).The eight-position adjustable head rest, three-position recline when either forward or rearward facing and newborn insert with removable sections mean you can adapt to your growing baby and have reassurance that they are comfortable whilst travelling. There are simple to remove inserts, crafted from soft natural bamboo fabrics, and an easily adjustable headrest that grows with your baby, so they’ll always be in the most comfortable position. Peace of Mind Key specs – Group: 0+/1; Item weight: 11kg; Attachment method: Isofix; Additional features: Rotating seat, washable cover, no-rethread harness, 2yr guarantee Many car seats claim to be ‘every stage’. This means they are suitable from birth right up until around 12 years of age (or 135cm), when a child is no longer required by UK law to use a car seat. However, in reality, many of these have limitations, including the fact that they can’t fully rotate or are unable to be used with Isofix during each stage of a child’s growth.
