High car seat - recommendations?

Hi

We want to upgrade from our car seat as its almost falling apart.

Our little one is 2yrs old and we would like something thats tall, so she can look out of the window. We have seen a few cars drive by with children looking out but ours is quite low down.

Would say a swivel car seat in general be better in this sense? Do they have a higher seating position? Any better options?

Thanks

How much does your LO weigh? If they’re beginning to outgrow the group 1 it’ll be worth investing in a 25KG seat. Which car seat are you currently using? And do you want rear facing or forward facing?

Maxi Cosi Tobi is very high up
BeSafe izi kid is also high if you want to RF

We have a Joie Bold, and it sits really high in the car, harnesses to 25kg

Yes, the swivel ones tend to be really high in the car. We have the Joie 360 which was almost too high in our last car, it was hard not to bump LO's head on the ceiling when we put him in :)

Which seat are you using at the moment?
