Lie flat car seat?

I have seen the joie I level. But concerned with reviews saying it doesn't last that long before outgrown.

Any other recommendations for a lie flat car seat?

Hi, we used the Jane Matrix lie flat car seat. It wasn't a brand new one (EBay) and we didn't use it as our everyday car seat, but we did use it for driving home to see my parents etc (a 2 hour drive) and also for a driving trip down to France when DS was 6mo.

I'd recommend it- worked well, and it gave us peace of mind as obviously we'd heard that their breathing can suffer if left in a normal car seat to sleep for too long. He seemed to like sleeping in it 👍🏻

If you go for a carrycot style lie flat seat I think they're only recommended until 9kg and they take up a fair chunk of space as they go across the back seat.

Something like the Kiddy Evo Luna can be used as a standard group 0+ seat to 13kg but can be used lay flat too.
