we have two in each car they are great. When I looked at which when I bought them they were one of the best. I liked them because they were solid and had know plastic clips or knob's to break off. I have had a child how was nearly 150cm in it and they looked fine. (the law says up to 135 need a booster seat but seat belts are designed for adults over 150 and I didn't want to move it. They are not light but they are isofix. In a 2-3 seat isofix just makes it easier to use it doesn't make it safer when a child is in it. It stops it moving over the belt when they are getting in and stops it tipping it also means you don't have to strap it in when you child is not in the car. It may be worth getting a booster seat that will fit between them in the car for a friend that you can send with one of you children when they go out with friends lighter is easier if you plan to go on holiday. We only have two sets because we don't have off street parking they move easily if you need to. I haven't seen another car seat that I like as much. We have found in the clio we need to recline it a bit as it was two upright. Hope this helps

yes jusr bought one they were indeed Which top scoring in the group. I'm very happywith it.

Pros - very secure, seat isn't loose in car when DS isn;t in it.

Con - not easy to switch to other cars. I bought a basic booster seat instead.
