Comfort

The Maxi-Cosi Morion i-Size car seat provides premium comfort for little ones. The seat features soft padded fabric that cushions your child during every journey. The fabric is also breathable, so your child stays cooler on hot days.

One of the standout comfort features is the multi-position recline. With a simple lever, you can adjust the seat to be fully upright or reclined for napping. There are multiple recline angles to choose from to keep your child cozy and content. When fully reclined, the seat is suitable for newborns as young as 40cm tall.

The seat depth and width are generously sized to give growing kids plenty of room. The headrest is thickly padded and easily adjustable to properly support your child's head and neck as they grow taller. Overall, the plush padding and adjustable features allow your child to ride in total comfort.
