Just paid for the following online.

http://www.kiddicare.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet...

Its for my 10month old lad for when I drop him off at nursery three times a week.

We already have an all singing all dancing Maximum cosi ISOFIX pebble/pearl thingy in the SAAB Sport wagon. So needed a second seat for the nursery run.

Hi guys,

I sacked of the cheap kiddicare one and bought a Recaro Young Sport.

The Kiddicare one is very upright and looks a tad uncomfortable.

Good call a special sports seat in daddy's fast car, - this could help when he decides to go rigid as you put him into the chair, my daughter suddenly looks all her joints if she doesn't want to go into her car seat.

We had the Young Expert Plus which looks pretty similar to yours - top tip for you... If (when) it gets covered in crap, you can take the covers off & pop them through the washing machine.

Quick jab in the solar plexus gets them folding up very quickly. As the wife disapproves then the less efficient double rib tickle achieves the same.

Good choice - we've got two (one for each car) and it regularly gets covered in food and drink, a quick wash once a month and they both still look like new 3 years on

Glad it's not just me: Floppy child, floppy child, car seat, rigid and straight as a board....
