Equipped with additional and removable Side Safety System attached to the outer shell of the car seat. The seat has a belt positioner, similar in design to the crotch strap you'd get on a three- or five-point harness, and it's designed to help position the seatbelt across the hip bones and ensure that the delicate abdominal area is protected in a crash. The vast amount of car seat options available, and all the regulations you need to adhere to, can be extremely confusing - however, with a Chicco Car Seat, it’s easy.Quality, as you’d imagine is one of the most important considerations for buying any products. This is especially true for Car seats. Then we’re on to features. Again this will vary in importance depending on the type of toy you’re buying. You’ll no doubt have a view on whether you care about features or not for Car seats. ULTRA-COMPACT & LIGHTWEIGHT STROLLER: with an ultra-compact fold of 51 x 50 x 26 cm (HxWxD) and a lightweight design of 6.4 kg, the stroller is easy to store in the smallest of spaces i-Size safety means installation is done easily using the vehicle belt and rigid connectors. Further safety enhancement comes from the side safety system which is attached to the outer shell of the seat (also removable) and the safety pad ensures best positioning of the seat belt. Finally the Fold&Go Air is also easily folded to carry and store in the boot when not in use.

The first thing we should say before we get really into the detail on the price, is to get you to think about a budget. Budgeting is a really key part of the buying process, as without a budget you might end up blowing a lot more money than you had planned to. So take a look at your finances and get a bit of an idea of how much you are willing to spend before you take too much time shopping around. Price GROUP 2/3 CAR SEAT: an ECE R44/04 certified car seat that can be used for children from approx. 3.5 to 12 years (15 to 36 kg)The Nachfolger is a German inflatable (!) one, but is very expensive and only goes up to 5 years - I wouldn't want to spend €400 to then only use it 18 months or so www.nachfolger.com/en/ All cars manufactured after 2011 are fitted with an ISOFIX system, and provide safer, easier and simpler methods for fitting your Chicco Car Seat into your vehicle. The most compact one I know of is the Hifold: mifold.co.uk/products/hifold-the-fit-and-fold-booster Many reviewers complain it doesn't seem too safe, but are there actual crash tests? With these factors in mind, you are then faced with a choice of Group 0-3, rear-facing or forward-facing, ISOFIX, and booster seats - all of which can be extremely confusing!

As we mentioned earlier, the brand you choose is quite a personal thing. We each have our own views on which brands are best suited for our needs and that goes for anything we’re buying. Even toys, gadgets, games and Car seats. The next step for us is to look at the products in the Car seats category. In this category we found 202 product at Argos. Since your child might not be quite in the weight/height region for booster seats just yet, what about a lightweight standard type car seat? Something like Britax Eclipse (which is additionally plane approved) or Joie Steadi (which has a rear facing option). These are cheaper than most of the folding options so it might not matter that you'll only get a couple of years out of it. Or even the cheaper generic/own brand type supermarket seats by Nania etc - these tend to be pretty flimsy, and average to low on the performance end, but they are light, seatbelt fitted, cheap to buy and they score better than the Urban Kanga. Something like Nania Racer SP or Nania I-Max SP

The price of a product is another really good indicator of the quality because, as you’ll already know, you often get what you pay for. In the pricing section shortly you’ll see how the price of Chicco Fold&Go i-Size Baby Car Seat compares to all of the other Car seats available from our recommended retailer, Argos. When selecting your child’s car seat, the factor to focus on is weight, and not age - it is recommended that all babies are kept in rear-facing car seats until they are at least 9kg (approx. 15 months). The first factor that you can look at is the brand. Often we can get a really good understanding of the quality of toys and other gadgets by just looking at the brand. There are some brands that are really well known for great quality, whilst others might be better known for value.(and some are known to be poor in both areas). Chicco Car Seats are designed to ensure the utmost safety and comfort for your little one, however there are certain factors which attribute to you needing to get a new car seat for your child. I wouldn't consider something like the Britax Eclipse or the Joie Steady because they are too similar to the one we have now, which works great in our car but is a huge pain to carry around in an airport or a train - we were really looking for something more compact and which folds a bit.

UK law states that a child must use a car seat until they're 12 years old or 135cm tall - whichever comes first. However, safety experts recommend using a car seat until they're 150cm. Chicco Fold and Go is the best option out of all the portable booster seats, with a safety score of 2.5 and the extra strap to keep the lap belt in place, however it has a minimum height requirement of 100cm, so your child is not big enough to use it yet. Again the isofix is totally optional because it's a booster seat. Pricing.

It's been tested twice as two separate models. The crash test of the original model was downgraded because the top tether hook touched the head of the dummy and they felt this was a risk; the actual performance was 1 point better - 2.3 for frontal, which is a very good score in this category. As you can see, the performance is even better in the newer model. 1.9 for a harnessed seat is fantastic. The Hifold is weight based, so needs a minimum weight of 15kg. No minimum height (but bear the 100cm recommendation in mind). It was included in the 2020 ADAC tests. You can see the results of those through Which?
