Searching for a smaller car seat

[jeffo49]

Hello,

I have recently bought a new Corsa to drive and wanted a car seat that will fit nicely and is well rated my current car seat is massive and doesn't fit, can anyone recommend anything?

Thanks

How old is your DC? What centile are they on? 25KG rear facing seats tend to be rather compact.

DC is 11 months so really need something that is forward facing now that will last a few years 1/2/3 sizes

OK, in that case if you want to forward Face I’d recommend maxing out the infant carrier first. Make sure that the harness height is on the highest and that you pull baby “nappy to buckle”, as IMO 11 months old is way to young to forward face. Most extended rear facing seats are compact anyway.

But if you decide to, I’d recommend a group 1 car seat over a 1/2/3 as they do better in safety testing. Booster seats can be as little as £30 so wouldn’t worry about it having a booster built in. Does your car have isofix and a top tether? As top tether can be extremely useful in forward facing seats
