    Recommended by car seat specialists, perfect seat! Perfect for newborns as most seats make babies chin to chest but with this one being made for smaller babies and laying more flat it ensures your baby’s in the optimal position for a safe journey!
  • 5.00/5

      Can be used with isofix and seatbelt only

    We received this as part of a pram bundle for a different brand of pram. It was the perfect car seat. It worked well with the isofix and when we needed to use it in different cars, we could also easily insert into other cars using seatbelt only which was so convenient to avoid moving a heavy isofix around into different cars all the time! Our baby also loved it until he outgrew it! Will be keeping for second baby.

    I love mine and so does my little girl.
    Its light and easy to carry, it's easy to take in and out of the car as it takes seconds to secure to the carseat. It must be very comfortable as my little girl never spends any time awake in hers as soon as shes placed in it shes fast asleep.
    I have adapters so that the carseat can be placed on my pram securely aswell which is really handy it also has a rain cover in the compartment on the back of it and a insert you can take out as baby grows and gets bigger. It also has a dark velvety cover that you can pull across the top and hook to its handle for extra privacy/ cover from rain or sun glare.

    We bought this car seat for our daugther.
    We don’t have a car, but we needed a car seat time to time : Maternity to Home, Go to GP, Travel.

    We use it in taxis, trains and we will use it soon on a flight ! It is (baby always falls asleep in it), very light, easy/quick to install in the car even without the base, easy to install on our stroller.

    The canopy is maybe to light. That would be the only weakness.
    We love it and would definitely recommend it ! One of our best baby purchase !

    It is quite a bit heavier than the Venicci Carseat in comparison but that`s okay. I love the way the Maxi Cosi carseats fit on most adapters. I wish it had one touch buttons like the Maxi Cosi Pebble. Does the job as a carseat so I am happy.

    I been using this car seat for the last 8 months I still love using it. I used it with a base in my partner car and seat belt with my car and it was so easy to use in both car. It was handed that I could connect it the my Parm base. We are moving away from using this car seat now as my little girl like to be a bit more sat up and look out the window.

    I love how versatile this car seat is. It can be belted into the car or can be used with a base- we used a base. The list of travel systems its compatible with is also endless which is a plus. We had an iCandy peach and I loved how I could leave baby undisturbed in their seats if I just popped to the shops. Its also lightweight so carry baby in the car seat whilst dashing to pick one of my other children up was never a huge weight on my arms.

    Bought this for our 3rd child.. who isnt the tiniest baby. The newborn support is good, had no problems with seatbelts being long enough and easy to install. I like that it has a hidden canopy hood. The only downside is it is really heavy, even with an newborn in and the isofix bases are pricey if you just got the car seat alone.

    I’ve had this car seat for a long time now. I bought it for my second born and I’m currently using it for my third. It’s still gong strong. I love this car seat it looks good and does the job well. The newborn insert adds that extra padding and security for when they are very small. The straps are easy to adjust with just the press of a button and a pull on them to either make them larger or smaller. My little one seems happy and comfy in this car seat. In fact it’s his favourite place to fall asleep. I like how you can connect it to your pushchair too with the right adapters.
    The only fault I can find is that the fabric collects dust and lint very quickly and it shows up. But overall I’d recommend it

    We are now looking for a 360 degree seat which isn’t compatible with this base. However other than this, this seat is great. Fits on pram well with adaptors

    Really like this car seat. The only down sides i have found are that the seat is really heavy. And that the new born insert has the head hugger attached so it can't be adjusted, meaning I had to remove my new born insert at 4 weeks cause my son was really long and use a muslin to keep his head safe instead.

    • Strengths:

      This product is very handy and light weight, also you can remove the seat with out disturbing.

    I bought this as a car seat for travelling to/from the supermarket and going around the supermarket mainly . I found it was light weight and fitted the trolley slot for car seats great. Baby always seemed very comfortable and snug. Although I was a little concerned that long term use would cause some spine issues and this seat seemed very deep. Rain cover was a little tricky to put on before removing the seat from the car which wasn’t ideal. Also the fitting of the seat with a seat belt can be a little frustrating and is definitely a two hand job so if you have a upset little one it’s hard to use one hand to comfort or grab a dummy while installing. Again item was lightweight and very useful for travelling in around the town to family and friends but I used a more sturdy chair for long journeys especially of it was for a motorway. Fabric was easy to take off to wash and put back one, fabric was always soft and comfortable. Chair lasted 3 of my babies before I upgraded and was still going strong.

    We love this car seat. My little boy struggles with tummy pain a lot so the newborn insert that lays him flat is a life saver! The car seat is super light compared to some of my friends and can be used on the majority of prams! The hood is stretchy so you can easily move it to the side to check your little one is okay, without having to take it down and disturb the baby!

      Its cushioned bottom, easy to adjust straps.

    Chose this car seat as I like simple designs that would suit all babies outfits. It has a cushioned bottom which was ideal as my baby was premature and didnt weigh much therefore it was comfortable for him. This is also idea for those long journeys . The seat doesnt take up too much room in the back of the car as it isn't too bulky. The straps are easy enough to adjust as baby grows. However theres a back compartment which I find useless aswell as a small open gap at the bottom which I dont see the point of.

    Very easy and light weight carseat . Baby is comfortable and safe when tavelling. Great product for a newborn. Great value for money.
  • 4.50/5
    • Strengths:

      Easily placed into car, belted or isofix

    • Weaknesses:

      No guidelines on when to remove cushion

    • Comfortable
    • Value for money
    • Easy to use
    • Design
    Car seat is sleek and easily installed into the car either belted or using the isofix base - the downside is it cannot be removed with one hand from the family fix base as you have to remove the seat as you pull the lever on the base. The seat is comfy for baby and easy to buckle them in etc - however I have found limited information on when they advise you to remove the cushion wedge that is inside the head hugger insert - my baby was 14 weeks when I removed the cushion as he looked squashed and is a chunky baby however I have no idea if this was the right thing to do, the only information the my do provide is that they advise you use the head hugger for as long as possible and this can be moved when you move the straps higher as baby grows.

    • Design
    I've tried 3 different infant car seats that looked far more cosy (and expensive!) than this one but this one is honestly way more loved by my baby than the others. I find the padding isnt much but my baby seems very content regardless, so I can't really fault it in any way. I wish the canopy wasn't as sheer though, with a bit more UV protection but the fact that my baby loves this one so much is all that really matters as he's the one that's got to sit in it!

    As a first time parent I think it’s very easy to over spend because of excess worries . Honestly so happy to get this car seat as one of the cheapest one and works well ! It’s comfortable , comparable with my yoyo as a travel system . It’s relatively lighter weight so it’s easier to take in and out . I have the isofix and makes it easier to strap my baby in .

Description

The lightweight Maxi-Cosi CabrioFix infant carrier is suitable from birth to 13 kg and is compatible with Maxi-Cosi and Quinny pushchairs to form the perfect travel system.

This car seat features enhanced Side Protection System and a soft chushioned seat with newborn seat reducer.

Practical belt hooks will assist in keeping the harness out of your way when placing your child in the seat. A one-pull harness adjustment ensures that it is set at the right tension. As your baby grows, the harness and headhugger can be altered so that it is always positioned correctly.

The CabrioFix installation is very easy with Maxi-Cosi's range of click-and-go base units or it can also be installed using the car's three-point seat belt.

When used in conjunction with Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix Base a light and sound indicator will notify you of its correct installation.

The car seat can also be adjusted into a unique upward position so older babies have more legroom. As a result, you can use the seat for longer in the rearward facing position which is the safest way for younger children to travel.

This car seat has been designed with your little one's comfort in mind: it is supplied with a headhugger, newborn seat reducer, chest and buckle pad and an integrated sun canopy. It also features an extra comfortable ergonomic carrying handle to make it easier for you to transport.

Features:

  • Compatible with Maxi-Cosi & Quinny pushchairs to form a travel system
  • Easy installation in combination with Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix Base, EasyFix Base, EasyBase 2 or a 3-point seat belt
  • Side Protection System offers optimal protection against side impact
  • Practical belt hooks help keep the harness out of the way
