Which car seat?

Hey Anonymous, we have our oldest daughter (almost 3) in a Britax Römer seat. It's one of those group 1, 2, 3 convertible seats. We're very happy with it. She's been in it since she was about 11 months old. We chose a convertible seat because all those individual seats are super expensive and we didn't want to spend that much money every 3 years. And this brand was well-regarded at the time and did well in all the tests. I think we'll use this seat for the youngest in about half a year and buy a new one for her. But by then I'll need to look into it again, because the rules have probably already changed compared to two years ago.

Mine has been in a Cybex Serena since birth. If all goes well, she should be able to use it until almost 4 years old. The only downside is that it has to stay in the car. She's about 18 months now and still facing backwards. It depends a bit on how fast she's growing in length right now whether I'll keep it like this or flip it around because she's starting to run out of legroom.

I went for a fixed seat because I find the hassle of moving a Maxi-Cosi way too heavy, and I'd rather pay a bit more upfront for a seat she can use for 4 years than keep buying new seats every time she outgrows one.
