We have two cars, two children (11 months and almost 4 years) and a holiday with a hire car coming up. We are thinking of taking car seats on holiday as I don’t trust that where we are going they will be safe and we are doing a lot of driving. But we also could use whatever seat in the future as existing seats will be grown out of
we have a joie juva infant carrier which our 11 month old can still fit in so we will be taking that. At the moment that switches between our two cars, and we have a joie bold and a cybex sirona s fixed in each car. However soon the cybex will be too small for our four year old (actually just weighed him hes 17kg so already too big…), so whichever seat we buy for holiday can be his seat in our second car. Then we can switch the cybex between the two for our youngest.Â
Does anyone have any recommendations for a seat that we could get that is lightweight enough to carry across the world, but safe enough to be an everyday seat for our 17kg 4 year old? He’s currently harnessed in the Joie bold - but is he old enough now to be in a HBB?Â
I’ve been considering the joie stages as it’s not too expensive, not too heavy and would last us a few years but I’ve read mixed reviews
