Product Information

Charlotte: If I was to change anything about this product it would be For the seat to last longer as in a child’s age or weight as it’s quite expensive so for the seat to last a child a lot longer would be fantastic and get more use from the product and maybe parents would feel the need to buy as would last longer as I look to see how long the seat would last my child and the price I would be paying. Kelly: Possibly the only things that I would change about the Mica is to make the top harness height slightly higher to cater for tall children and maybe moving the swivel button onto the side to make it easier to get to. But other than its a really great seat - simple to install, comfortable for the child, and easy to operate and get them in and out on a daily basis! Installation was much easier than the Maxi-Cosi Axissfix because it doesn’t have the top tether. The leg and Isofix points are easy to use and are a more secure fit, in my car, than the Axissfix, which moved more despite showing 3 green indicators. On this basis alone I would choose the Mica over the Axissfix because it felt more secure. her hips at first. Thankfully, over time this has gone away. I also think it is much more comfortable for my daughter There were no complaints from my son, just smiles. He looks very comfy and the seats seems to fit him nicely with lots of room to grow.

Superior sleeping positions: Five recline positions allow for perfect sleep in the car, including the open recline angle of 155 degrees in rear-facing position.

How do you know when it’s time to switch?

I love the rotating feature on the seat. I do currently own a britax dualfix which also rotates so I am used to this feature. The button to rotate the carseat is in a much better position to rotate it. I also love the strap holders as you can pop the straps in and it keeps them out the way to get little one in and out. My son loves to climb in the seat himself now he is older and it makes it much easier to help him when the seat is facing the car door. I also think its great that you can rear face until four. The previous rotating maxi cosi seat only rear faced until age two or 13kg so I like that I can rear face for longer in this seat R44 groups 0+ (birth to 13 kg), 1 (9 to 18 kg), or 2/3 (15 to 36 kg) are based on your child’s weight, not height and are suitable for children from birth up to 12 years old. In accordance with the law, your baby must travel rearward-facing for at least 9 months. However, R44/04 products are going to be phased out in the future and i-Size will become the standard for car seats. Read more about ECE R44. Charlotte: I would highly recommend this product to my friends as I feel a fantastic car seat with all the needs to make an easy life for any mum with comfort also. The fact it has different recline positions also is fantastic when sleeping can lower when awake can look out the window love its rear-facing as I always feel safer with my child rear-facing.

Read our full Maxi-Cosi Morion review to see if it impressed in our front and side-impact crash tests. Installation was very straightforward. I read the instruction manual but I preferred the Maxi-Cosi online installation video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w-Z8Ujub6O8 However, this will depend on whether your local recycling centre has facilities to separate hard or rigid plastics from other materials. It's worth calling the local recycling tip to see if it offers this service, otherwise it may have to go into landfill.Maxi-Cosi is a popular brand with parents, and many of its models can be used with pushchairs to create a travel system. They can even be used with other brands of pushchair, so long as you have the Maxi-Cosi car seat adaptors. Can I recycle a Maxi-Cosi car seat? The Maxi-Cosi Mica has visual indicators that notify you when the car seat is correctly attached to your car’s ISOFIX anchor points. When it is secured properly, the car seat can stay in the car. This way taking your little one on a trip is no longer a hassle. All you have to do is position your child and fasten the safety harness correctly. This is an extended rear-facing car seat that can be used from birth (with the Comfy Baby-Hugg Inlay, sold separately) until your child is four years old (or 105cm). The rotation just meant I could get him in easy, pull the straps tight without having to be on a funny angle and then just spin him into position. And it was so easy to use!
