Rear facing group 1+

Hi I've started looking for the next group up for my 10mo DD. From what I can see, rear facing is deemed to be the safest option. Can anyone recommend a few to look at? I'd like to get something that will do for a while and don't mind if it's a permanent fixture in the cars. There really doesn't seem to be a lot on the Market - why if it's the safest way for children to travel?

Had a look at the Besafe Izi but it got a terrible review on which?

TIA

Thanks for all the help. Britax 2WE ordered should arrive by the end of the week. Hope it's easy to install!!....

It's in and DD looks so comfortable in it. My DH fitted it, he even followed the instructions which is a first for him. He said it was pretty easy to install.

Just looked at some crash test footage of ff versus rf and now so glad we've opted for rf.

mcflumpy, we also got this seat a couple of weeks ago and love it. DS looks really comfy in it. And I only dared watching those crash tests once we had the TWE installed, I couldn't face doing it before I knew if we'd be able to fit a RF one in our car.
