Rotate & Swivel Seats

Swivel car seats rotate a full 360° on the base, giving you the option to easily switch from rearward-facing to forward-facing as your child gets older. And if you’ve ever tried getting a child into or out of a car seat, you’ll know that getting yourself into the right position is easier said than done. A rotating car seat solves that problem as you can swivel your child around to face you instead.

Part of the beauty of 360 rotating infant car seats is that you can use them from birth until your child is around 4 years old. You can lock the seat in place to prevent it from being accidentally spun into a forward-facing position to keep your little one rearward-facing, which is the safest way to travel.

Swivel car seats face the same rigorous crash testing standards as traditional car seats, ensuring they’re perfectly safe for transporting your little one. However, you should always follow guidelines to maximise safety. 

For seats manufactured based on your child’s weight, you can start your child facing forward at 9kg (approximately 9 months). For iSize seats (seats manufactured based on the child’s height), you’re required to keep your child rearward-facing until they are over 15 months old. Experts recommend keeping your child rearward-facing for as long as possible as this reduces impact on the neck and head in the event of a frontal collision.
