Babys-Mart also sells Isofix carseats. Most of these baby car seat manufacturers also offer ISOfix. A new type of universal and semi universal method of installing your car seat that is becoming more common and standard on new vehicles. Isofix car seats simply install either with an Isofix base or with an integral Isofix system. The benefits of using Isofix is that it eliminates incorrect fitting. Isofix carseats are now available in all child car seat groups from 0+ through to group 2 + 3.
group 0+ baby car seats that have Isofix use an Isofix base. The base is installed into the car and the baby car seat simply clicks into the base. The most popular examples of this are the Britax Cosy Tot Premium, the Recaro Young Profi and the Maxi-Cosi Cabrio. All these car seats install either with the car’s internal seatbelts or with the Isofix base. In the Group 1 classification Babys-Mart like the Britax Duo Isofix
