After weeks of research - scanning talkboards, talking to parents and researching bestsellers, we put the top baby car seats on the market through some serious testing to find the best of the best for parents.
We thoroughly checked how easy it was to attach and detach each car seat, and how useful and effective each safety feature, extra and car-seat adapter was. We also put each car seat through its paces for ease of getting a child in and out of the car, attaching to travel systems, adjusting straps and padding, switching from rear- to front-facing, reclining, and removing carry seats without waking the baby. We also checked out the safety features of each, looking for five-point harnesses that couldn’t be clicked open by small fingers and sturdy straps no tiny Houdini could wriggle out of.
The results are in and the Recaro Zero.1 came out on top. Take a look at our full list of Mumsnet Best Baby Car Seats to find out which did the best job, whether you're on a budget or looking to splash out.
