Bottom line:
The Infasecure Achieve Premium is a 0-8 convertible car seat with extended rearward facing, based on the Grandeur shell. It is narrow enough to fit 3 across in the rear of a lot of cars but it is quite deep at 66cm. If you have a large enough car, you might be able to use this as your only seat, ever.
The Achieve Premium features Infasecure’s premium features, including Air Cocoon Technology, Secur-air, Active Bamboo fabric and enrolment in the Priority Customer Program which gives you lifetime discounts on spare parts and covers, early and exclusive access to events and promotions, priority customer care and more.
It isn’t cheap at $779 but it does come loaded with features, and you may end up saving money if it’s the only car seat you ever buy.
Who this is for:
Parents looking for a single seat with premium features from birth up to 8 years old that can also do extended rearward facing.
