Pros and cons
Pros
+ Narrow design to work 3 across in rear
+ Extended rearward facing
+ ISOFIX
Cons
– No recline
– No additional features
– Basic fabric
Bottom line:
The Safe-n-Sound Safe-Fix focuses on providing an ISOFIX anchor to your car over all else. Designed for 3-across in the rear, it also allows extended rearward facing up to 2-3 years. Good for smaller and narrower cars when you need to carry 3. But it does compromise with a lack of other features.
Who this is for:
Parents looking for a basic ISOFIX convertible car seat for a smaller car.
