Maxi Cosi Turn2Me Review The Graco Turn2Me car seats is a budget-friendly choice that can also function as an additional booster. It's a simple and easy installation, a rotating design that saves your back, one-hand rotation, and a harness holder built-in. It's also airline-approved and comes with a unique TensionFix tension sensitive indicator which helps solve the issue that 7 out of 10 parents face when their vehicle belts are loose. Features This car seat is an excellent choice for those who want to rotate their infant car seats but don't need a dedicated rotating base. It also comes with additional features that make it a good choice for parents who drive small cars or travel often. It has an integrated cup holder as well as the headrest can be moved to different positions as your child grows. It can be used either rear-facing or forward-facing mode. It has a one-handed rotating feature that helps you take your child into and out of the car seat. The i-Spin Safe comes in a single piece, without a separate base, and is installed by using Isofix (follow the standard color-coded system). Our reviewer was impressed by the soft locks kept the seat level while buckling and unbuckling your child. He found that the swivel feature was easy and quick to use. It can be used front or rear-facing, and is compatible with Maxi Cosi's latest slide-out bases. It has a top ADAC rating and a range of features, including “Guard Surround” safety panels, a magnetic strap holder which keeps straps out of the way, as well as 19 adjustment positions for the headrest and the harness. It is designed to stand up to crashes up to 25mph, and is iSize-compliant. However, the seat is a bit bulky and heavy, making it difficult to transfer from vehicle to vehicle. It's also not as narrow as some of its competitors and the height adjustment only offers five different settings, which may be limiting as your child grows. The cup holders are tiny and can only can hold standard-sized drinks. This isn't a good reason of having built-in cups. The other major flaw of this seat is that there is no manual storage area for the LATCH connectors. You'll need to remove the seats from your vehicle in order to access the connectors. You'll have to store them in the belt path or on the bar that prevents rebound, which is less convenient than many seats that let you store the connectors on the side of the seat. Installation Car seats are one of the most essential products you'll purchase for your baby. It is crucial to install them correctly for keeping your child safe. Luckily, Maxi Cosi's ISOFIX bases and toddler car seats come with colored indicators that can help you confirm that the seat is secured. Be aware that these indicators do not necessarily indicate a secure fit. Always make sure to check the seat before you drive. The ISOFIX base car seats and toddler car seat have a support tether or top tethers that need to be connected to the anchorage points on the rear of the door of the vehicle to complete the installation. The Maxi-Cosi Peri 360deg Rotating Infant Car Seat is a excellent choice for parents who want to avoid back strain when getting their child in and out of the car. The rotation is easy to operate using just one hand, and the seat also can be swiveled to the forward for easier access to your child's head. It is also the lightest car seat for infants, making it easier to transport and carry. Another feature that sets this seat apart from other seats is its patented anti-rebound bar that reduces rotation and movement in the event of a crash. It also helps spread the force of the collision across the body of the car. The car seat's deep cradle shape and energy-absorbing EPP foam ensure that your child is protected from side-impact collisions. It's one of the easiest rotating car seats to install thanks to its easy-to-read indicator lights. However, its ineffective mechanism for swivelling (which is difficult to operate with just one hand) and sweaty fabric that made our tiniest testers feel hot, it fell short of the top spot in our assessment. This car seat is compatible with strollers and comes with an assortment of stroller adapters. It's compatible with a range of strollers and it comes with release buttons that allow you to easily move the car seat from your vehicle to the stroller without disturbing your child. It's also easy to disassemble, assemble and machine washable. Safety As with many European car seats, this seat is made in two pieces – an base and a shell. This seat's shell clips into place, unlike cars that rotate, where the shell slides along tracks that run over the base. While this can mean less hassle for parents, it also could mean that the seat is more difficult to install as compared to other models. The seat itself is simple to use, featuring a one-handed swivel mechanism for getting your child in and out of the car, built-in levels that aid in maintaining proper belt tension, as well as harness straps that have tandem tension (which assists in preventing the buckle from getting pulled up on the belly of your baby) and a quick release. This seat also has five reclines in a rear-facing mode, and a headrest that has a slide-out lever built-in to assist with the difficult task of getting your little one out of the forward-facing car seat. In our crash tests this seat performed very well. It scored a four-out-of-five stars in the side impact test, and a four out of five stars in the frontal collision test. This score is due to its solid structure and the amount of padding around it. Its fabric is soft and it hides the hard plastic seat frame well. One drawback is that it weighs a bit more than other convertible seats. This can be an issue for urban parents who need to manage three seats across the back seat, or who are planning to make use of taxi and Uber services. It's also not able to fit into the trunks of all cars due to its wide width. The LATCH anchors are situated on each side of the shell close to the bend in the seat, and the tether clip is on the back of the base. The LATCH anchors can be more convenient to use, however it could take some time to make them secure enough. The tether is not easily accessible but it clips onto the anchor points that are behind your seat, so it is impossible to remove it in the event of an accident. Price As opposed to other car seats that rotate that only rotate at the seat, this one rotates at the base. This allows for easier access to get the baby out and in, and reduces back strain for parents. It is easy to buckle, with soft locks on the base that are simple to release. The seat is built-in level that allows you ensure that the seat is installed correctly in your vehicle. The harness straps are tensioned tandem making it easier for parents to secure their child. It has a high ADAC rating and can be used by children from newborns to early teens. The only drawback to this seat is that it only swivels while the child is rear-facing and up to 40lbs. After maxi cosi spin car seat , you have to change it to forward-facing mode which means that the swivel feature is no longer available. It's not the lightest seat out there. The seat weighs more than 20 pounds and isn't the most convenient to move between homes or vehicles. Another good option is the Graco Turn2Me, which combines the 360-degree swing of a swivel and the convenience of the convertible seat. It's a bit more expensive than other convertibles, however it comes with a number of great features that are worth the extra cash. One of them is TensionFix it solves a problem that is common to installation by showing when the belt is tight by using a red-to green tension sensitive indicator. The seat comes with an in vehicle belt lock-off arm, as well as a quick release harness that can be operated by one hand. The seat, just like the Pria seat, has 360-degree rotation that will help you avoid back strain when buckling and unbuckling your child. The headrest can be adjusted to 14 different heights, depending on your child's development. There are also five positions for the rear-facing and forward-facing harness. It also has a magnetic buckle holder, which keeps the buckles out of your way while you get your baby in and out. It also has two machine-washable, dishwasher-safe cup holders. It also comes with a soft infant insert that is used until your baby's shoulders are above the lower limit for this seat.
