Pros and cons

Pros

+ Works in smaller cars
+ Side impact head protection
+ Affordable

Cons

– No ISOFIX
– Headrest may be uncomfortable over long journeys

Bottom line:

The Mother’s Choice Cherish 2 is an update on the original Cherish with AirProtect side impact protection. The AirProtect is a valuable safety feature but the car seat is otherwise fairly basic as far as other features go. But at $249, it is on the value end of car seats.

Who this is for:

Safety-conscious parents on a budget.
