Car seats - Britax Evolva 1-2-3. Is it any good? Opinions please.

We've just got a Renault Clio and the Britax First Class we've got in is a bit bulky so are thinking of getting a smaller car seat.

Ds is 2yo in 2 weeks so think its a bit pointless getting one to last to age 4, cos they're not cheap, so we're looking at high back boosters but most don't recline and ds occasionally sleeps in the car so i've seen the Evolva, which says it does recline, and like the look of it.

Is it a good seat? All opions greatly recieved as i don't want to waste money. Or does anyone know of similar seats?

TIA

Been into Mothercare but all they did was go online to the Britax fit finder and said yes it will fit If I could have found a single member of staff in Toys r Us iwould have asked in there but they'd all gone into hiding so i didn't bother.

Our local council offers an un biased advice and fitting service for most of the car seats on the market.I have used them EBERY time i needed a new one.Basically,you take your car along and theyn look at your requirements then try the seats suitable.They can then give you a list of all the local stockists and this is for free.When you have bought a car seat you can even return to have it fitted by them.This service is free and i'm sure they have saved many a child by doing this it may be worth checking with your concil if they run a service like this.
