Hi, our son has just outgrown his Cybex Anoris so we're looking for another seat for him. I quite like Maxi-Cosi RodiFix Pro² i-Size but thought I'd ask here for suggestions before going ahead and buying one. Thank you :)

The Maxi Cosi boosters are good and they are very nice in terms of comfort and slimness in the car, but they don't tend to get quite as high scores in the ADAC tests as the Britax, Cybex, and Joie/Nuna tend to, if ADAC scoring is something which matters to you.

Axkid Up also scored very highly although it is a very expensive seat.

Thank you so much, I really love the Axkid Up (especially since it can come with a built in foot rest) but maybe a bit too pricey at the moment. Having a slim seat is definitely appealing though since currently our middle seat isn’t really usable (Axkid One 2 and a Cybex Anoris - both quite wide and bulky)

I think Besafe is also slim, though you may struggle to find it to try out. Britax I'm not sure of the size of the current seats and both Cybex and Joie are wider seats.
