Maxi-Cosi CabrioFix i-Size Car Seat - Essential Black

The Maxi-Cosi CabrioFix i-Size is a rear-facing infant car seat designed to provide safety and comfort for babies from birth. It complies with the latest ECE R129/03 i-Size safety regulations, which focus on height-based classification and enhanced side impact protection. Suitable for infants measuring 45 to 75cm in height and weighing up to 13kg (approximately birth to 12-15 months), this seat offers a secure travel solution whether installed in a vehicle using a three-point seat belt or with compatible ISOFIX bases (sold separately). Its primary function is to protect the youngest passengers during car journeys while offering practical features for parental convenience. Key features include a remarkably lightweight construction at just 3.2kg, making it easy to carry between car and home. The seat comes with a removable newborn inlay and headrest cushion to provide tailored support for smaller babies, along with a large, integrated sun canopy that offers UV protection. A one-pull harness adjustment system allows for quick and secure fastening, while the height-adjustable headrest grows with your child. The memory function on the release buttons helps when attaching the seat to compatible Maxi-Cosi and Quinny pushchairs, facilitating a smooth transition from car to stroller without disturbing the sleeping infant. This car seat is ideally suited for new parents seeking a dedicated infant carrier that prioritises both safety and everyday practicality. Its compatibility with a wide range of popular pushchair brands—including Bugaboo, Babyzen, Uppababy, Mamas & Papas, and iCandy—makes it a versatile component of a travel system. The removable, washable polyester cover simplifies maintenance. While it does not convert to a forward-facing seat or booster, its design excels within its specific usage period, providing a secure, comfortable, and conveniently portable environment for a baby's first year of travel.
