Silver Cross Motion All Size 360 The most trusted British brand is most well-known for its premium prams and pushchairs but the Silver Cross Motion all-in-one car seat is making its mark on the market. Jasper, our tester, loved it. He said it was “the most stylish of the bunch, and my baby seemed to be the most comfortable on long drives.” This fully rotating R129 certified car seat is suitable for babies all the way to 12 years old. It was awarded the ADAC 2022 autumn test's award for the most effective toddler, infant and child car seat. It was also tested beyond the regulations to ensure that your child is safe throughout every journey. For babies, it has an easy-to-remove and comfortable padded insert made from soft bamboo fabrics that's super comfortable and breathable. It's also antibacterial. The body support and head support can be removed as your child grows and the 3 headrest positions and recline can also be adjusted to suit. The green light that indicates that the car seat has been properly installed and is ready for use is an exclusive feature. This makes it a perfect choice for parents who are new to the family, and may not be familiar with the proper installation and fitting of car seats. It also comes with a strap that can be used in the rear-facing or forward-facing position. It's also a permanent fixture, so you won't have to wake your baby in order to get them out of the car on longer trips. It is not compatible with travel systems like the Britax Romer Dualfix plus iSize, or Joie iSpin 360 iSize. You'll need purchase an additional travel bag. The disadvantage of cars with a fixed structure like the Axkid One i-size is that they're not as convenient to carry around when you're required to move them between vehicles. If you decide to purchase an additional travel bag to carry your car seat, ensure that it's a sturdy bag that is able to withstand the wear and tear of frequent use. It's worth paying more to get a bag that will last longer than the car seat of your child.
