Anyone digs into the BMW brands baby car seat?



Any user comment?
I read from some website, saying the rear facing car seat is still the best pick.

Generally the rear facing ones are best for babies, however not for those who are already, say, 12 mths or above... I forgot, but the baby seat shop can tell you more

the battery will not show up saying it old and not working 100%.
it only shows up if it can not charge or dead.

+1, especially for frontal crashes. for 9mths+, maxi cosi prior xp isofix is the best in the market at the mo in terms of safety, according to which magazine. only thing I have complain abt is the seatbeat is a bit troublesome to put on for the kid, so you might want to check out the newer models. believe bmw have some isofix models too but dont think Which had crash tested them.
