Recaro monza seatfix??

Does anyone have one of these? Bought one today for my nearly 4yo, from a local/independent and usually very good baby shop. It's fitted with the isofit fittings, but seems very loose/floppy (for want of a better word!) in the car. It's moving around a lot - I feel it shouldn't be, but can anyone else with one of these seats let me know how theirs is, to compare??

TIA!

I think we have this, ours isn't floppy as such but is 'looser' than the younger one (can't remember the name at the mo - mind gone blank).
We are happy with it though.
Isn't it because the younger ones have the base with the leg - so a third fixing?

Hi Justkeep - thanks for the reply. The seat it's replacing wasn't isofix, but it was rock solid in terms of not moving - really good fit. This just seems so loose. I'm tempted to take it back to the shop and try the Britax evolva instead. But thanks for the feedback - it might be that I'm expecting too much from the next stage carseat, which just probably won't be as strongly fixed and fitted in the car, unfortunately.

it's a change certainly and i feel almost guilty putting ds1 in it as he can still fit in the earlier one (just have one monza in dh's car) in my car and the 5 point harness is much safer-feeling than just the seatbelt.
