Super part! In the first 7 weeks after giving birth I have the Maxi Cosi still "normal" strapped. My God, I'm now glad that I bought this base. Although not cheap, but with one of the best investments we have made for baby's. Especially for parents who often take on the day by car. Instead of the hassle of buckling up, which has always taken some time you just set now the baby seat on the base and ready. I can recommend them really on.
