The Best Group 1 Car Seat 2012

| April 5, 2012

At around 12 months our baby was starting to outgrow her Group 0+ car seat.

We loved the Britax Baby-Safe Plus SHR II car seat so much and know Britax is a reliable and safe brand so we decided to upgrade to the Group 1 Britax Safefix Plus ISOFIX Group 1 Car Seat.

This car seat has won several awards and since using it with my baby, I firmly believe it is the Best Group 1 Car Seat 2012. The Britax Safefix Plus ISOFIX Group 1 Car Seatwon the Mother & Baby Gold Award for Best Group 1 Car Seat 2011.

The Britax Safefix Plus ISOFIX Group 1 Car Seatis suitable from 9 months to 4 years (9kg to 18kg). It comes with an ISOFIX base and can be used with the ISOFIX base or with a seat belt.
