Check with a certified child security technician (CPST) before purchasing an infant car seat for a newborn. They can assist you in choosing the best car seat for your baby.
Infant-only car seats are intended for infants. They can only be used in the rear-facing position. Some can be converted into strollers for easy transportation.
Axkid One i-Size
The Axkid One i-Size is a rear-facing car seat that is suitable from birth up to age 6 (with the infant insert included in the One+). It is constructed of tough plastics, metal and a solid base. Its headrest can be angled by pressing a button, giving older children more legroom. There's also a difficult side impact protection that slides to the side of the seat, however this seems to work well and is simple to use.
The seat is simple to fit it comes with 6 easy-to-follow steps and an anti-rotation bar that snaps into place when you fold the support leg down - it's a very quick procedure that should take only 30 seconds with practice. It's also light, making it easier to manage. The ISOFIX connectors are easily incorporated into the Isofix points of the car and there is an audio signal that informs you if the seat is in a proper position.
The Axkid One 2 is an upgrade to the wildly well-known Axkid ONE and has over 150 improvements - most of them are hidden inside, so you won't see them but they make the car seat more secure, smoother to use and more comfortable for your child. It is also the only rear-facing ISOFIX seat on the market with a maximum weight/height limit of 23kg and 125cm. It's i-Size Plus approved which is the highest standard of safety testing. It has a backrest that is long, so you can keep the child rear-facing for longer. Research suggests that this is the most safe method of travel.
Cybex Cloud T
The sleek and striking Cybex Cloud T is a car seat that has a lot going for it. It is i-Size and travel system compatible. It also features a seamless 180deg swivel entrance (when used with an optional Base T ISOfix base). This makes it easier to get your child into and out of the vehicle. It also comes with a Newborn Inlay which promotes a nearly flat lying position for smaller premature babies and newborns. This is safer and lessens respiratory issues. However it is possible to remove this as your baby grows.

The ultimate comfort is assured by the fabric that breathes and the adjustable sun canopy that allows your baby to have a relaxing ride. The advanced air ventilation system is designed to keep the temperature at a steady level and ensure that your child remains cool throughout long journeys.
