OK...
The story so far...
We've had it confirmed that we are not allowed to use our Britax Frontier 85 in the UKSad Hmm so now I have to decide what to replace it with!
Since there are no 5 point harness seats for stage 2/3 then I think I have narrowed the search to BritaxKidfix SICT or Kiddy CruiserFix Pro.
Really Confused
I can't decide...what are the pros con, does anyone know what Which? has said??
Any help or info greatfully appreciatedSmile

thanks for the bump loopy...I'm kind of swaying that way myself...only problem is trying to find one locally to fit check in our car. Halfords have the kid fix but without SICT...and you know what they say about assumptions...also if i show DH kid fix he'll get a shit on about spending the extra for SICT...therefore keen for him to never see it without SICT Grin

Glad you got the SICT Grin The guardianfix pro is a good seat...and it's fab that you can get it as an isofix group 1,2,3 as there are so few on the market! As a high back booster though the Britax is better - it's tested much more vigorously by Britax and as it isn't a combination seat the safety hasn't been compromised. I feel that the Britax provides much better side impact protection, particuarly the SICT (based on what I have seen/read and professional observation)
Loopy The SICT is better than the KidFix because of the additional side impact, however if you do have to get 3 across the back the KidFix is still one of the best you can get :)
