Great support. When leaving the NICU with my premature twins I was so scared to take them home in their car seats. However loved these and my mind was at ease how comfy and supported my babies were. Still loving them now! Also very light and easy to put in car.

Bought this car seat as it was one of the ones recommended as compatible with my pram system (mama and papas xt) it was the lightest of the recommended ones and I'm a bit of a weakling when it comes to carrying things.
It ticks the boxes of everything needed in a newborn car seat although it's not particularly large so can see baby growing out of it sooner rather than later.
It is very easy to strap in (we haven't got the cabriofix base) and is very secure once in.
Took me a while to find the canopy as its tucked away in a pocket in the back, I nearly bought one as I didn't think it had one but then thanks to internet I found it .
Baby loves being in it and sleeps really well (even though they only recommend them being in it a short while)he'd sleep all day in it if he could so I'm guessing that means its comfortable - Strengths:

This car seat is so simple to use, comfy for baby and so easy to put in the car as it’s so lightweight and not bulky, I have this with the maxi cosi pram and it’s so easy to attach on and off, would definitely recommend this car seat for any new parents who are looking to buy! - Strengths:

I have bought a Cabriofix car seat every time I have a new baby & I can honestly say they are great.
They are lightweight which makes carrying it a lot easier, especially when you have other walking children with you to the car.
It straps in very secure, and it connects to IsoFix which is also a very secure method.
The newborn insert is fabulous as it kept my baby warm & safe & they travelled lovely in it.
I also bought adaptors so I can use it whilst using my pushchair.
The only downfall is the hood. Every time I have bought one it seems to tear on the side but they are quite cheaply replaceable.
Overall, would highly recommend. - Strengths:

This car seat is very easy to use, simply sit baby in and clip straps together. The straps are easy to adjust either making them smaller or bigger.
The carseat comes with a newborn insert which is soft and padded for baby's safety. This is also very easy to put in and out. As baby grows it has 3 different places where you can place the straps which is simple to do. It also has a little hood feature that you can attach to the car seat handle which keeps sun and wind off baby or allows it to be a bit darker for if baby goes to or wants to go to sleep. Also very easy to fit to a pram with the right attachments.
The only weakness I feel is that it's already a bit heavy to carry and my baby is only a small 8 week old, so I may struggle as she gets bigger. - Strengths:

We love this seat. It gets really good safety ratings and has lasted very well.
Maxi-cosi have a great warranty too. We broke a bit of the polystyrene off a different maxi+Cosi seat (Titan) and they sent us a new seat free of charge. Great company and great seat. - Strengths:

Had this car seat with my first and loved it! We had it in the plain black and it is a little disappointing that there arnt more colours to choose from, but if you don't mind black or grey, everything else about this car seat is amazing! My little one was so comfy and snuggled, he didn't look squished and it was easy/ light enough for me to carry and pop onto our pushchair! - Strengths:

I had this seat with my second after having a different model with my first. I much preferred this seat. I found the inserts better. The sun visor was a lot more suitable as covered more of the seat. And the buttons to release from the travel systems where quick and simple to use. - Strengths:

Best first car seat When baby reaches 16 months or 13kg it enables you to know which next stage car seat it required whether an extended rear facing or standard to 18kg seat.

Our first choice for our first and loved it that much that we have decided on it again for baby number 2. Very durable and very comfy for baby. Great that it attaches to most prams and love it can be use with the seat belt or the isofix base, making it easy to get in and out of the car when needed

This car seat is a great light weight car seat before using this one I had a silver cross but found once my little boy got to around 5/6 months he looked very squashed and the maxi cosi was used as a spare in my mums car where he looked more spacious so I now use this until he goes into the next one up - Strengths:

This car seat is in my opinion the best on the market.
Baby is comfortable and it’s easy to use. The newborn insert ensures your newborns back is in the correct position whilst keeping the head steady.
The sunshade on this car seat is great as it attaches to the handle.
I use the family isofix base in my car and it sits sturdy and easily removeable.
My downside would be the covers are fairly hard to remove and wash. But once done you find it easier
We have used cabriofix with all our children and could not fault it. - Strengths:

I purchased this when it was on offer on Amazon at a discounted price (£95) and was very pleased with the price as this was the car seat I had been recommended by family and friends. The harness on the seat is really easy to use and has a clever one-pull harness system which is great for adjusting the harness on baby without any fuss and is also very easy to use and install using a seat belt which was my main concern that it might be complex - I'm really ditzy when it comes to tightening and loosing belts/straps (always struggle with my bras) but this is foolproof!
Baby is comfortable in it and once fitted it feels sturdy and safe. One of the main reasons I wanted this car seat was because it was compatible (using adaptors) with many prams as it gave us options to select a pram that suited us (we bought a Mamas & Papas FlipXt2, adaptors cost approximately £30 and fitting looked really easy when demonstrated but yet to try myself).
What I also love is that the head hugger is adjustable because my newborn is bigger than average and longer (55cm at birth and getting longer by the minute!) so it gives me reassurance knowing that he can still have that head support as he grows until it is necessary. Only criticism I have is that we do need to move the front seats in the car (BMW 1 series) quite a bit forward to be able to get it in which is inconvenient but will probably just take some getting used to. Overall very happy with the purchase and reassured that my baby is in safe comfy seat which I can easily transfer!

It's a must have with a newborn. It will last them a while as it comes with a newborn insert so once they have out grown it, you take that out and it's like having a new car seat again! The only disadvantage to it is that when you put your child in it the position of them is always sitting on the buckle you clip their seat belt bit into. - Strengths:

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
