New to Market 2013: Gold
Maxi-Cosi 2WayFamily - (i-Size) - £200 2wayPearl (£175 2wayFix Base)
Unique Selling Points:
The 2WayFamily collection, which consists of the 2WayPearl and 2WayFix base,offers extended rear-facing travel in line with the new i-Size legislation which states a minimum period of rear facing travel of 15 months. The Maxi-Cosi 2WayFamily goes above and beyond this, allowing parents the option of rear-facing up to four years, thanks to the innovative recline built into the car seat, providing extra leg-room for older children. With a high level of side impact protection and light and sound installation, the 2WayFamily provides added reassurance for parents. The 2WayFix Base is also compatible with the Maxi-Cosi Pebble and CabrioFix infant carriers.

The new i-Size regulations are designed to deliver increased car seat safety. The Maxi-Cosi 2wayPearl and 2wayFamily Fix base combination are the first seat to conform to these regulations. The seat rear faces for longer (15 months), has an excellent recline and is a real high quality product. The downside, is that it is a little large meaning it might be tricky to install in smaller cars. The fabrics are excellent, but it is an expensive option, but what price for safety?

The quality of the Maxi-Cosi 2WayFamily i-size seat was very nice as was the recline function. The material was really soft and it looked a really comfortable seat. The seat is fitted with an alarm, which beeps if it isn't installed correctly which is a really nice feature. It was a nice sized seat although I’m not sure it would accommodate a very large 4-year-old height wise. As it conforms to iSize, I would say that it is very safe.

Maxi-Cosi 2WayFamily (i-Size) - £200 2way Pearl (£175 2way Fix Base). It is a big and bulky unit so it may not be a choice for everyone, especially with a smaller car. It does however boast a longer use as it is from 6 months to approx 4 years old. I do feel that the price may put some people off as it is not the cheapest of options, but as it adheres to the new iSize regulations, it will put your mind to rest when it comes to safety.
