Iso Fix Child seats

[spud75]

I liked the idea of isofix's convenience. But not being covered or potentially pursued by the law in the event of an accident was a deterrent enough to just buy the best quality legal seat I could find. You have to place trust the system to a certain extent. I think if I was unlucky enough to have an accident and my kids ended up permanently injured or whatever, at least I'm insured to cover their care. I took great care to install the seats correctly (at first installed professionally), check them every time we strap in and they don't get moved from vehicle to vehicle.

There needs to be some sanity in this realm though. For something as important as this, you shouldn't need any research to ensure you are choosing wisely. It should be right there on the box.

I had someone sit in the middle seat and they unclipped the child seat when they unbuckled. Un be known to me or anyone else. Strapped child in and did another trip. Tell me, you lean over and check the buckle on the car buckle everytime you put your child in the seat. Me thinks not.

One more vote for isofix........

No one sits in the middle seat. I give them a good rock to make sure the car shakes, not the seat. BTW, when I was looking you would illegally be installing a foreign sourced isofix seat. I'm not saying its more or less safe, just that I wasn't going to illegally install a seat.
