The Volvo Baby Seat Conundrum

With the arrival of our new family member, I have been researching travel systems and baby seats for months. It has not been simple. There are so many manufacturers and systems it is a minefield.

 

I like the Orb (previously Spin) push-chair because it travels forwards or backwards with a twist of a handle. It is unique and exclusive to Mothercare but a separate baby seat can dock in it.

 

I drive a Volvo S80 so I explored the Volvo (birth to 13kg) baby seat. It is actually a Britax BABY-SAFEplus SHR II seat and fixes in the car using a Britax BABY-SAFE ISOFIX Base.

 

More research revealed the Britax baby seat is compatible with the Mothercare Orb pushchair. All it needs is the Mothercare Spin Britax seat adaptors. How much more simple could it be?
