Britax Römer KIDFIX SL Group 2-3 (15-36kg) Car Seat - Flame Red

Bought this because we had to move on from the 5 point harness seat. I had bought other non-Iso fix seats, but the very cheap ones were slightly concerning with their build quality.This one has hard plastic, outside on the right places, yet has comfortable padding on the inside.Here are the main benefits I see over other similar car seats.1. ISO Fix, can be used with/without it. However when using ISO fix, it means that if the child gets out and doesn't remember to strap the seat belt back over (say after dropping off at school), and you drive home and have to do an emergency stop, the seat doesn't go flying off the back seat of the car.2. The ISO Fix mountings on this seat are via flexible straps rather than rigid metal rods which means you can clip them in much much easier than other car seats I've had in the past. This is a great feature if you have to move the car seat between cars. - Definitely worth considering if you do this regularly. Also helps that the seat is lightOne thing worth mentioning is that this seat (like most other seats on the market) has a base which is about the same width as the seat itself. This does mean that it probably won't fit in the bucket type seats you might find in some Coupe and sports cars. (You'll have to go for something like the Halfords essential, which is of worse build quality if you need that.)So my overall summary is: Provided it fits in your car, then I would definitely buy this, especially given how well priced it is. It can be moved between cars without any trouble, and the added ability to use ISOfix is something which I have really come to appreciate.I will definitely be happy to get more of these in future if I need them.Update July 2019: after 8 months, I bought another one and added photos. First photo is the original one after 8 months of daily usage, second photo is the new one and the packaging it comes in.Update December 2019: Ive reviewed another car seat which costs 2-3 times the price of this one, and think this is actually the easier seat to use, and in my opinion the better seat, which is high praise for this.Update August 2020: Having had such good experience with these, I bought a 3rd one, replacing a much more expensive car seat with this. This time I bought an entirely black one which I think actually looks smarter than the one with the white back.

This is an improvement on our older Kidfix-XP sict with the chest pad. The main issue that we had/have with our XP is that the friction of the seatbelt running through the clip at the top prevents the seatbelt from retracting. So if a child leans forward during the journey, it doesn't retract when they sit back again. And also when the child unclipped at the end of a journey, the seatbelt was left hanging low out of the door, which caused some denting to the door frame when it got caught in it. This SL model that we have received has a slightly different clip at the top and the problem is much improved, although still not perfect.

Very reasonable for ISOFIX. In my opinion ISOFIX are really the only safe kind of car seat as they firmly lock to the car and don't slide around or get lose.My car is particularly bad for fitting a car seat, but it goes in OK.Not had too many complain.ts about them from the kids

Didn’t have a book/ pamphlet to show how to fit into car. Had to google it. Found out purely by chance it can be flat for storage when not in use. Otherwise good for the price

Very happy with the chair - a Which Best Buy. Well built not over heavy. 3yr old grand daughter fitted in perfectly. Sensible isofix connectors and tightening mechanism. Excellent!

Such a good quality seat. The isofix clips in easily and gives you reassurance that the seat is secure. They look stylish and provide great comfort for my children as the seat can recline with the main car seat. Sides are wider than conventional car seats which can make the middle seat space too narrow for other passengers depending on your car.

Fits beautifully and the neck adjusts to let your little man/lady sleep whilst on long trips WITHOUT hurting their necks or bobbing about. A rare thing in a car seat. Also added protection from side impact,G-d forbid. Surrey and comfortable.

Wasn't sure about the flexible isofix system but more than happy with the seat security, comfort and materials. Easily installation and removal. Another good seat from Britax.
