The other factor to consider with a 0-12 years car seat is that they tend to be big and heavy – and this is no exception. I did manage to carry it to the car and fit it myself but it would be awkward if I needed to move it between cars regularly. The main reason I would recommend this car seat, aside from longevity, is safety. It allows my daughter to be in the rearward facing position until she reaches 105cm (about four years old) and that’s the safest position to be in in the event of a collision. (Forward facing is also possible with this seat from 15 months, if parents prefer). As it meets the latest R129 crash test regulation I know it has been side impact tested (car seats under the older R44 regulation don’t have to) and using Isofix means it’s more likely to be fitted correctly - there are several indicators on this car seat that change from red to green to make it really clear. ADAC score the car seat across 5 key areas, safety, ergonomics, chemical content, ease of cleaning, how easy it is to fit. Combining all of these to give an overall publicly available score 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.
The Nextkid comes with four recline positions, which you can adapt as your child grows, and ventilation throughout ensures the passenger remains cool and comfy on the road. The seat proved super easy to install with the secure Isofix system, with no signs of wobble when the child gets in and out. It’s also approved according to R129 regulation.It goes without saying that all car seats should be fitted in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and guidance. This includes making sure you don’t use a seat for longer than you should. It may say it’s suitable up to the age of four, but all car seats are based on weight so if you have a chunky toddler, they may outgrow their seat long before this upper limit.

We have a 1 year old currently in a Joie iSpin 360 which we absolutely love. We need to get a new car seat for our nanny's car, but we'd like to get something we would like to use ourselves in the event that we stop using the nanny in the future. We plan to probably have another child at some point in the next couple of years. The seat comes with a 180-degree swivel, which you engage by pressing the button on the base, making getting your baby or toddler out of the car seat super easy. It also features multiple reclining positions with a headrest that can be adjusted in 12 different ways as your baby grows. With its well thought out design, the Motion All Size 360 boasts eco-friendly fabrics made from recycled plastic bottles and luxuriously soft, breathable natural bamboo interior fabrics. I really value the spin feature so looking for a spin seat. I realise RF til 25kg is ideal but our child is of average weight and smaller height so I predict she will get to 4 years before 18kg after which I'd be happy for her to FF.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 The most recent addition to the law involves booster seat regulations, but it doesn’t actually affect you as a consumer. Instead, all newly released booster seats can only be made and sold to a child who is 4ft 1in or taller, or who weighs 22kg or more. Existing booster seats will still be valid in your car, so don’t worry about rushing out to buy brand-new seats. The car seat is designed with a 5-point harness that secures your child safely in the seat and protects them during sudden stops or accidents. It also features an adjustable headrest and a removable infant insert that provides additional support for newborns.
At Silver Cross, we’re meticulous about safety. The Motion All Size 360 has been rigorously tested to offer the best in protection. It’s the only car seat to meet the latest R129/03In the UK, children are required by law to travel in a booster seat up to the age of 12 (or 135cm in height – whichever comes first). Axkid’s Nextkid is designed for this transition, with a comfortable padded seat with four-step expanding side wings, an adjustable headrest and super-soft fabric. You're right that there is no specific crash test on the Silver Cross, the info about seats that do all stages not being very good for performance is based on looking at all the results for every all-stages (or multi-stage including RF, FF and booster) seat that has ever been tested by ADAC. I compiled them a while ago and none of them gets higher than 3/5 stars, which is a pretty poor result - most of them get 2/5 stars (which is terrible) and three get only 1/5 stars and a "don't buy" recommendation. They tend to get in the region of 3.5-4.5 numerically which is not good. It's a scale from 0.5-5.5, and the lower the number the better. Joie i-Spin 360 has a 1.7 (4/5 stars) for safety, and the i-Spin Safe (which is likely to be comparable to using the i-Spin purely in rear facing mode) is 1.2 (5/5 stars) for safety which is very very good and one of the highest scores you can get. 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 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.
