Product Information

When it comes to travel legislation across Europe, there are two safety standards that you should be aware of: R44 and R129/i-Size. Children up to the age of 12 years old or under a set height should always travel in a car seat that meets one of these approved standards. At Maxi-Cosi we have carried over 50 million babies home from the hospital. To offer your little one the best-in-class safety, our car seats and bases undergo constant testing. You will love the Maxi-Cosi Tinca i-Size Car Seat, very comfortable and safe for your little one, it's also very easy to transport due to its low weight, only 3,2 kilos.

I-Size is categorised by the length of your child compared to previous and slightly older regulation of R44/04 which goes by the weight of your child instead. Designed for safe travel and simple use, the Maxi-Cosi Tinca is an i-Size car seat that can be used from birth. For your peace of mind, our ISOFIX bases and car seats have a colour indicator to confirm a correct fit. This way, you can rest assured that your little one is safely installed in the car at all times .Additionally the Tinca is compatible with most Maxi-Cosi strollers. Whether in the car or on a walk, the Tinca is the car seat for everyone. Upon opening, they were both in clear bags to protect them from scratches which I was really pleased with. No assembling needed! Support legs and top tethers are designed to prevent the base or car seat from moving forward in case of a crash. Only ISOFIX child seats are safely secured with the 2 fixing points only. But first, what is I-Size? I-Size is also known as the R129 regulation. It is the newest and highest test level for car seats. We also attached the car seat to our pushchair to create a travel system which makes life on the move so much easier. It attached to our pram with the relevant adaptors really easily and Arlen was definitely cosy as can be!

We couldn’t wait to put this car seat to the test with our trusted parent testers. Keep reading to find out what they thought of the Maxi-Cosi Tinca i-Size car seat and ISOFIX base.
