My son outgrew his rear-facing baby seat relatively early, at 8 months. When I say outgrew, he was still within the safe weight limit (just!) but seemed too long for it and no longer looked comfortable. He also had lost interest in looking out the back window of the car and had a habit of pulling upwards and peering around to see what ... Read the complete review

Child car seats are an essential for any family who have kids and have a car, they keep the child safe and secure and prevent the child from coming through to the drivers section of the car if there is an accident. I have two boys (3 and 2) and we have two car seats in the back of the car. Child car seats cost between £80 and ... Read the complete review

Having been recommende the Maxi Cosi brand by several friends we purchased this car seat for our 9 month old son. We do not have an Isofix base, yet the car seat is easy to fit into the car and is easy to take out again. Once clipped in it feels secure and does not move around. The seat is comfortable, with adequate padding both on the ... Read the complete review

Recently my youngest son made it up into the next group car seat. Unfortunately for us my eldest is too small for the one up from that group 2 - 3. So we have ended up with two in the same group. As money is tighter these days I couldn't warrant the £180 we spent on the car seat we bought for my eldest and there are plenty of car seat's ... Read the complete review

Having already had a Maxi Cosi Cabriofix rear facing baby seat, which proved to be an excellent first stage baby seat, the next stage Maxi Cosi Priori was a natural and preferred choice from the dozens available. Like it's predecessor it is constructed very well from good hardwearing materials and easily clean removable cover. ... Read the complete review

I bought this seat 3 months ago for our (now) 1 year old son. We are using it for a second car and ocasionally borrow it to the lady who takes care of our boys while we work hard. It is easy to take it out and put it back in the car. It is probably not the lightest on the market but among lighter models. Looks rigid and secure for a ... Read the complete review

We've had this car seat for about two and half years now. We're currently looking for the next stage up, as my son has almost reached the top weight limit of 18kg recommended for this car seat. I originally chose the Maxi Cosi Priori for three reasons (in the order of importance): 1) It had a good safety report by ... Read the complete review

We bought this car seat as it performed well in the safety tests for this class of car seat, and was the only one of 2 available at the time with a decent safety rating. It has a side protection system that a lot of child seats in this age range don't have. It is very easy to fit securely, easy to take out of cars, and I ... Read the complete review

Choosing the Maxi Cosi Priori XP for our daughter was one of the best purchases as a parent so far! Firstly it's easy to fit. We did go to a baby shop to be shown how, however, it really is quite simple. 2 of the main things I love about this seat is the 'wings' on the sides. So when my daughter falls asleep in the ...

It fits very well and securely in my car, has a really easy to use recline mechanism, is well padded and seems comfortable for my baby, and also i liked the way the sides seem to come out more ...

We chose the latest XP range of this car seat which although more expensive did offer an additional seat belt tensioner to hold the seat securely in place and added side impact protection. Everything has been fine for three weeks until the polestirene side became unstuck causing the whole side to flop about looking very unsafe. We did ... Read the complete review

I've had my Maxi Cosi seat for about a year now (well, I've not had it - my daughter has because she sits in it - not me!). It cost about £90ish from Mothercare. The car seat is very sturdy and very easy to fit. I love the way the it reclines so that if my daughter falls asleep, I can just lift the lever undearneath ... Read the complete review

When my son was about 8 or 9 months old, and his legs were dangling off the end of his carry-tot, I decided it was time to buy a "proper" car seat. I looked around and this was one of the seats I like best (well, it DID match the upholstery in the car, you know!) - but as a single mum, I had to consider the price ... Read the complete review

NOTE: THIS REVIEW IS NOT FOR THE SPS VERSION. DOOYOO HAVE PUT THE OLD REVIEWS INTO THIS NEWER CATEGORY. We weighed up the Maxi Cosi Priori against the Britax Renaissance (no belt holder) and the Bebe Confort Iseos (width adjustment is a bit floppy and the reclining mechanism is too time consuming). We chose and would ... Read the complete review

This car seat was one of seven that I tested for the 'Mother and Baby' magazine in July this year (when my son was 11 months old). It is suitable for approximately 9 months to four years old (20-40lb or 9-18kg). It can be either foward or rear facing, so can be fitted in front or back of your car. It is ...

Of course, It is paramount that you try any seat in YOUR car before buying to ensure a good fit. But that aside, the maxi cosi is a really good quality child seat. The seat is suitable for use in the front(if no airbag) or rear. And is designed so that it can be fitted right,left or centre. I really like the seatbelt ... Read the complete review

My daughter has been in this car seat for a couple of months now, some shops say it's suitable from 6 months and others say 9 months. My health visitor said as long as they are sitting up okay then the second stage car seat should be fine so we went for halfway between the two recommended ages. It can be used in the front seat ...
