Bottom line:
The Infasecure Grandeur Treo is one of Infasecure’s more expensive 0-8 convertible car seats. It does have extended rearward facing capability. The Treo comes with ‘Active Fabric covers’ which are designed to be hard wearing, cool and breathable. It does have Secur-air and Air Cocoon technology side impact protection but the seat does not rate well on the CREP safety ratings. The seat is particularly narrow which may suit smaller cars, but only get if on sale as better value can be found elsewhere.
The Treo is now discontinued, look for the Grandeur Element if you are looking for the best available Grandeur option.
Who this is for:
Parents looking for a narrow 0-8 convertible car seat with some safety features and can find this on discount.
