Frequently Asked Questions

The main types of car seats include Group 0+ infant car seats for newborns from birth to approximately 13kg, Group 0+/1 convertible seats that transition from rear-facing to forward-facing from birth to approximately 18kg, Group 1 toddler seats for children from 9kg to 18kg, Group 1/2/3 combination seats that grow with your child from 9kg to 36kg, Group 2/3 booster seats for children from 15kg to 36kg, and all-in-one 0-1-2-3 seats that adapt from birth to 12 years. Each type is designed for specific age, weight, and height requirements to ensure maximum safety and comfort.

Choose the right car seat type based on your child's age, weight, and height. For newborns, start with a Group 0+ infant car seat or an all-in-one 0-1-2-3 seat. As your child grows, transition to Group 0+/1 convertible seats, then Group 1/2/3 combination seats or Group 2/3 booster seats. Consider i-Size (R129) seats which use height-based measurements for improved safety, and decide between ISOFIX installation for secure fitting or seat belt installation for flexibility. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines and ensure the seat fits your vehicle properly.

ISOFIX car seats use metal anchor points built into your vehicle for secure, rigid installation that reduces the risk of incorrect fitting, making them quick and easy to install with minimal effort. Seat belt car seats use your vehicle's existing seat belt system for installation, offering flexibility to move between vehicles and compatibility with older cars that may not have ISOFIX points. Both installation methods are safe when used correctly, but ISOFIX is generally considered easier to install correctly and provides a more secure fit, whilst seat belt installation offers greater versatility across different vehicles.
