I want a rear facing carseat for 9m+, and at the moment I am being swayed by the MaxiCosi Opal...
Does anyone have any good or bad feedback?

Thanks!

It's rear facing to 13kg only and then has to be turned to forward.

Are you looking at long term rear-facing, to 18kg? If so, these guys are great.

Oo thanks! I saw recently that they should be kept rearfacing as long as possible, so to 18kg would be better :)

I don't want to get into the rear facing argument - all I'll say is we loved our maxi cosi cabrio fit (Pearl didn't exist then) so much that we've stuck with the brand for dd's second seat and will do for her third. She's always been comfy in them and seems safe.

Am pg with twins and will buy a second maxi cosi cabrio fit - seems to make sense to stick with the one we're happy with as the Pearl is a bit more pricey. I really want the twins to be treated exactly the same.
