It also has a few additional features that make it a good choice for parents who drive small cars or frequently travel. It comes with a built-in cup holder and a headrest that can be moved to different positions as your child develops. It can be used in either rear-facing or forward-facing mode.

However, the seat is heavy and bulky, making it difficult to transfer from vehicle to vehicle. It's also not as wide as many competitors, and the seat's height adjustment only offers five settings, which may be limiting as your child grows.

As with many European car seats, this one comes in two pieces - the base and the seat's shell.

The anchors with LATCH can be more convenient to use, however it might take a while to get them snug enough.
