Must have sides in case he naps! I have been told the Evolve is the best?

We have the Evolva 123 and thinks it's fantastic.
Our ds is nearly 3 and still is very comfy in it and as you say can fall asleep without his head wobbling all over the place.

Im really confused with this. Why does the Evolva 123 have a harness and the Evolva 23 doesnt. Why are some eats £45 and some £100

A 3 year old should still be in a stage 1 seat though shouldnt' she?

The seat on that site is a stage 1.
Stage 2 uses adult belt.

He was 3 in Feb and is ok in his Maxi Cosi Priori - do you think I should leave it until he is 4? Some of my friends have their kids in the one with a seat belt and they are 3

Don't you have another thread on this?
The weight is the key. How much does he weigh? I think the Priori goes up to 18 kg so I would keep him in that for as long as poss. It is safer. The stage2's start at 15kg but this is not a reason to move him in itself.
The Evolva 123 is different to the Evolva 23. The 123 goes from a younger age. The 2-3 is the equivalent to the Maxi Cosi Rodi.
The Maxi cosi Rodi and the Evolva 2-3 both did well in the Which tests (as did the Rodi XR and the Evolva Ultra 2-3.)
DD2 is 16kg and we have bought the Rodi XR ready for when she is 18kg and has therefore out grown her Britax Isofix seat. HTH.

yes but it was under chat and not many replies. I think I will keep hhim in his stage 1 for a little while longer

Ah, right. I wasn't sure if I was repeating myself or not.
Yes don't rush to move him up. He is safer in the Priori until he is over the weight limit . There are lots of useful threads on this in the archives too.
