Advantages: Travel system compatible but only if child can use the seat!!

Disadvantages: Dangerously upright, heavy & cumbersome, seatbelt difficult to fit

We bought this car seat to go with the Pliko P3 Pramette thinking that M&P were a good company & could be trusted. WRONG!! This car seat is DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS as it is FAR TOO UPRIGHT for a newborn. No matter how tight the straps are done up, our baby daugter's head slumped downwards & sidewards to the extent that her head was trapped under the SIP headrest! I had to stop on numerous occasions due as I was afrais she could not breathe I am a regular poster on the Bounty forum and to date am aware of 20 other people who have bought this seat with the same problem. M&P customer services are terrible - we have now changed to a Graco seat that is much safer!! AVOID THIS SEAT!!!!

Summary: AVOID at all costs - it is far too upright for a newborn!!
