We use it with the Cabriofix base to make trips in the car not quite so daunting. It is a little heavy but I guess that comes with a safe and sturdy construction.
Top class & Which crash test winner

We bought this for our first around 2 years ago on the strength of the Which crash tests and it has consistently performed at the top since 2006. It has been a great car seat and has a newborn insert for when they are really small and then fitted our toddler until she was about 12 months old (she didn't like facing backwards so we bought the next one up).
Easy to clean but getting the cover off can be a little fiddly, we run it through the washing machine on the handwash setting which works really well. When combined with the base is ridiculously easy to use! Fits most middle and top brand push chairs with adapters (the P&T one is really easy and the Quinney one is ok).
Really good buy.
Everyone has one, everyone I know!

Half a dozen of my friends who have had children over the past three or four years have all bought a Cabriofix. Added to the Isofix car base this provides safety, simplicity and there are a wide range of buggies that take the Cabriofix too.

This is a very very light car seat, fits snugly in a VW golf and a Peugeot 206. Design is good and the built-in sunshade is a nice touch as is the storage compartment. It fits well on our 2008 Quinny Speedi.

Great colour. Very supportive. Has a retractable sun shade. Easy to load & unload using the isofix base - just one simple click. Relatively light weight for carrying from car. With the isofix base this seat feels safe and sturdy which gives great peace of mind.

I did a lot of research on car seats online and talked to a lot of people and the one everyone recommends is Maxi-Cosi as the no. 1. Its won lots of awards and seems to sweep the safety boards. I wanted the safest car seat possible for my child. Infants under 3 months should lie flat and the position of the seat back is a far recline - perfect!

I was told this was the best carseat out there and it was no lie. Having to use other carseats before this is so easy to put in and out as well as adjust. I click it to the Quinney and it cannot be any simpler.

its great that it fits on to the quinny zapp frame as it means less carrying which is great with a toddler also to watch - my walk to my car is quite a way so it enables me to get both children there safely

Only problem with it is it's quite heavy, but then they all!

Useful as it fits straight onto the Bugaboo Chameleon - perhaps Maxi Cosi could supply a small rain cover given we'd tend to use it outside.

I have this one in imageline Shantung. I've had a number of carseats in the past few years and this is the best. Maxicosi do gorgeous colours, the carseat is lightweight, well padded, easy to use, the sunshade is brilliant, it works great with the base or without, the harness is easy to adjust and best of all, my daughter is comfortable, happy and safe. The fact that it is compatible with so many pushchairs is brilliant.
This carseat will become legendary in years to come!
Excellent, versatile product.
