Which Category is Right for me?
Firstly, ensure you are looking at the correct models for your child, click on the categories below organised according to the age and weight of your child…
*Some of our seats are designed for a more specific weight/height group (eg Birth to 13kg/87cm). Our All in All range is an “All Stages” seat and is designed to cover a much wider weight/height range (Birth to 36kgs/150cm). Therefore, the All in All Range will appear in all of the categories below.
Regulations and Standards Explained
There are the two separate, current car seat standards that you need to be aware of to meet car seat legislation across Europe: R44 and R129/i-Size. Children up to the age of 12 years old or under a set height (135cm) should always travel in a car seat that meets one of these approved standards.
R129 / i-Size
R129/i-Size is the latest standard that has been introduced. With an R129/i-Size car seat you choose the seat depending on your child’s height, not weight.
ECE R44
The ECE R44 standard has been in place for many years and the car seats are defined by groups; 0+ (birth to 13 kg), 1 (9 to 18 kg), or 2/3 (15 to 36 kg). All these groups are based on your child’s weight, not height - as used for R129/i Size regulation.
What is the situation with ECE R44 car seats?
As ECE R44 is an older standard, it is planned to be gradually phased out. The reason for the gradual change is that seats made to the newer R129/ i-size standard are usually significantly more expensive. PLEASE NOTE: At present there is no clear date for phase out of ECE R44 seats in mainland UK and be assured they are perfectly safe to buy and use.
About ECE R44: This standard recommends that your child travels rearward-facing for at least 9 months but with R129 it is mandatory that your child travels rearward-facing for longer – 15 months.

It is paramount that in addition to performing in crash tests, our seats remain safe as they are used over time.
Wear and tear to the materials that make up a car seat can render a seat not fit for purpose and to that end we always ensure ours stand the test of time, keeping your child safe for many years.
Here are some examples of the tests we perform:
Buckle Operation
We open and close the buckle
5000 times
Harness Adjustment Check
We tighten and loosen the harness
2500 times
Seat Rotation Test
We rotate the seat
2000 times
Exclusive Anti-Escape System
The 5 Point Plus Anti-Escape System is attached on to the harness, reducing the space so there’s less room for your child to wriggle their arms through. In tests, 9 out of 10 children could not get their arms out of the harness, making it virtually impossible to escape.

WATCH VIDEOSSafety Notice
We recommend replacing any car seat that has been involved in a crash. Even if it looks fine, there could be internal damage that would make it unsafe. The seat has done its job by protecting your child and therefore needs replacing. Most insurance companies will cover this expense. To be safe, please request a police report on the accident.
