Joie Stages, safety?

[MidnightRose]

My dd's infant carrier's strap has broken so I need to buy a new car seat ASAP and wanted to get an ERF one but I don't have isofix in my car and I can't afford the really big names like britax ect. I have seen the Joie one in mother care and tried it in my car so it fits, but on doing some research I have seen that Which gave it a very poor rating on side impacts. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on an alternative or if the Which testing is something i should go by or not.

Thanks in advance.

I believe it was subject to a UK recall recently. Hang on will check.
