Pros and cons

Pros

+ Rearward-facing, forward-facing and booster all in one
+ Air Cocoon Technology side impact protection

Cons

– Heavy
– No additional features

Bottom line:

The Infasecure Everest is a completely redesigned version of the original Luxi 0-8 convertible car seat. It is the same base car seat as the Luxi II 0-8 convertible car seat (CS4313) but with different shaped inserts and colours. Its safety rating is good in Booster mode but not in forward or rearward facing modes. It can work as your only car seat but there are other car seats available which allow for extended rearward facing until 30 months (approx) that might be preferable, such as the Infasecure Grandeur.

Who this is for:

Parents looking for a 0-8 convertible car seat and booster all in one, in black.
