Joie Stages R44 from Birth Combination Group 0+1/2 Belted Car Seat (Birth - Approx. 7 Years, 0-25kg) - Coal

Very happy with product. My little sits very comfortably in the chair. He used to make so much fuss on other car seat but since we got this one he's so happy and calm and never cry or make any fuss to seat in car. Its very comfortable. Its also got recline option if your baby go to sleep or you want to feed baby milk. Good safety features and amazing quality and value for money. Easy to set up in car and easy to adjust belt too. Highly recommend 👌

Great seat, feels really safe and secure. It is for our grandchildren and is easier to move between cars than an isofix seat, but is still very stable and secure.

Great car seat, very solid and safe but also very comfy for the baby. Easy to fit and good price.

Amazing quality, value for money! Installation is a bit tricky for people with bigger hands and you have to feed the belt through the back of the seat, my hand did get stuck, ones in though it’s very sturdy.The NB insert is a little confusing as my little boy is 18lb and 7 months so he’s too big for the insert but without the insert it looks like there’s too much room down the sides.

The Joie Stages car seat has been a reliable addition to our family travels. Its versatility is a standout feature, accommodating our little one from birth up to around seven years, which is a huge plus for long-term use. The seat feels sturdy and well-made, giving me peace of mind about safety. I also appreciate the ease of installation with the belted system, making it straightforward to switch between cars. However, the seat can be a bit bulky, which sometimes makes it tricky to fit in smaller vehicles. The recline feature could also use some improvement, as it doesn't always provide the most comfortable angle for naps on the go. Despite these minor drawbacks, the overall functionality and durability make it a worthwhile investment for growing families.

I recently purchased this car seat for my one-year-old, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! I have noticed how much more comfortable and content my child is during our drives. It’s the perfect size and height, allowing my little one to look out the window and enjoy the scenery, which has made car trips so much more enjoyable for both of us.

The seat is well made, and presumably safe, but adjusting the straps is very difficult indeed. There is also little toom for adjustment. To remove the straps in order to make the seat usable by a larger child was byzantinely complex and necessitated taking the base apart by removing seven crosshead screws once a buckle became trapped between the two parts of the base. I would be incredibly reluctant to reverse the process.

Wouldn’t recommend parcel force as your courier. Package left at the front of property in view of everyone walking past. Neighbour saw it and kindly took it in for me.Otherwise, car seat was good. 👍
