This car seat is perfect for those who want to rotate their infant car seats but don't require a rotating base. It also has some additional features that make it a good option for parents who drive in a smaller vehicle or travel often. It has an inbuilt cup holder and a headrest that moves to different positions as your child grows. It can be used either rear-facing, or forward-facing. It also comes with a one-handed rotation that makes it easy to get your child into and out of the seat.

It has an excellent ADAC rating and offers many features, including 'Guard Surround safety panels and a buckle holder with a magnetic buckle to keep straps out of the way, and 19 positions for the headrest and harness. It is designed to stand up to crashes that exceed 25mph and is iSize compliant.
However, the seat is a bit heavy and bulky, which makes it difficult to move from vehicle to vehicle. It's also not as wide as many competitors and the height adjustment has only five options that could be restrictive as your child grows. The cup holders are extremely small and our reviewer noticed that they could only hold regular-sized drinks, which isn't really the point of having a built-in holder in the first place.
Another major issue with this seat is that there's no manual storage area for the LATCH connectors. You will need to remove the seats from your vehicle to gain access to them. They'll need to be stored in the belt path or on the anti-rebound bar, which isn't as convenient as most seats that let you store the connectors on the side of the seat.
Installation
The car seat is among the most essential products you will buy for your child. Installing them correctly is essential for keeping your child safe. Luckily, maxi cosi car seat and base Cosi's ISOFIX bases and toddler car seats have color indicators that help you verify that the seat is securely secured. You should be aware that these color indicators are not a guarantee of a secure fit. Always make sure to check the seat before you drive. In addition, ISOFIX base and toddler car seats come with a support leg or top tether that need to be connected to the rear door anchorage points in order to complete the installation.
maxi cosi cabriofix car seat-Cosi Peri 360deg rotating Infant Car Seat is a great option for parents who want to avoid back strain when getting their child in and out of the car. It can be easily rotated using just one hand. It can also be rotated in a forward-facing direction to make it easier to reach your child's head. It is also the lightest rotating car seat for infants, making it easy to transport and carry.
Another aspect that sets this seat out from the competition is its patented anti-rebound bar, which reduces rotation and movement during the event of a crash. It also helps spread the force of the impact across the body of the vehicle. The car seat's deep cradle design and EPP foam with energy-absorbing properties ensure that your child is protected from side-impact crashes.
Its easy-to-read installation indicator lights make it one of the simplest convertible car seats that you can install in most vehicles. However, its ineffective swing mechanism (which is difficult to operate with one hand) and sweaty fabric that left our tiniest testers feeling hot, it fell short of the top spot in our test.
The car seat is compatible with a stroller, and it comes with a set of stroller adapters. It's compatible with numerous strollers and features release buttons to facilitate the transfer of the car seat to the stroller. It's also easy to put together and disassemble, and is machine washable.
Safety
The seat is made up of two pieces that are a base and a shell. This seat's shell clips into place, unlike rotating car seats where the shell slides on a track over the base. This means less fumbling by parents, but it can also mean that the seat is more difficult to install.
The seat is easy to use. It comes with a one-handed pivot to get your child into and out of the vehicle, built-in levels that help to ensure proper belt tension, and harness systems with tandem tension. This prevents the buckle from being pulled upwards onto the belly of your infant. This seat also has a five-position recline in rear facing mode and a headrest that comes with an integrated slide-out lever to assist with the difficult task of getting your baby out of a forward-facing car seat.
In our crash tests this seat performed very well. It received four stars out of five for the side impact test and four stars out of five in the frontal crash test. This score is due to its solid structure and the padding around it. Its fabric is soft and it hides the tough plastic seat frame very well.
It's a bit heavier than other convertible seats. This could be a problem if are a parent in an urban area and need to fit three seats onto the back of the seat. It also doesn't fit in all trunks due to its wide width.
The LATCH anchors can be located underneath the shell on each side close to the bend of the seat. The tether clip is located on the back of the base. The LATCH anchors can be more convenient to use, however it might take a while to get them snug enough. And although the tether isn't readily accessible, it does snap onto the anchor points in the back of the seat, which means you won't lose it during the event of a crash.
Price
In contrast to other car seats that only swivel at the seat, this also rotates at the base. This allows for easier access to get the baby in and out and also reduces back strain on parents. The base is equipped with soft locks that are easy to release. It is simple for parents to buckle. It also comes with an inbuilt level that can help you make sure the seat is properly installed in your car. The harness straps are a tandem tension, which helps parents secure their child. It has a high ADAC rating, and is suitable for kids from newborn through early tweens.
The seat can only be used rear-facing for children up to 40 pounds. The swivel function is not available afterward. You have to switch the seat to forward-facing.

Another option that is worth considering is the Graco Turn2Me, which combines the 360-degree rotation of a swivel with the convenience of a convertible seat. It's more expensive than other convertibles, but it has a number of great features that make the cost worth it. One of them is the TensionFix, which solves a problem that is common to installation by showing when the belt is tight with a red-to-green tension sensitive indicator.
