Car seats: Experience of Maxi Cosi Priorifix or Britax Explora Isofix

[jaz2]

I need to buy a car seat for my 9mo DS. I want to get an Isofix one (we currently have a maxi cosi cabriofix), and saw these two in Mothercare today, but I'm not sure which is best. I'd welcome any advice.

The Britax looks much more like an armchair, and has a head support, which is great for now, but he might object to it when he's older. It also looks rather "cosy", and he might be a bit squished when he's bigger. Conversely, I worry that the Maxi Cosi doesn't provide enough support.

Also, is there any difference in the extent to which they recline?

Is there anything else I should be aware of?

Have you tried the fit-finder on the Britax website to see if it will fit your car? Might answer your question!

I've just tried the fit finder on Britax website, but it doesn't seem to be working. Mothercare advisors said they fit my car, so should be OK. So it's really the "softer" issues that I need advice on....
