💡 Stay rear-facing until at least age 2 if the seat allows, then turn forward with the 5-point harness. ISOFIX mounting cuts installation errors sharply.
Weight beats age when the two disagree - always follow the seat's weight limits. See ranked seats for each stage on the Baby Gear hub, including which Indian car models have ISOFIX anchors.
Frequently asked questions
How long should my child stay rear-facing?
Until at least age 2, and longer if the seat's rear-facing weight limit allows. Rear-facing protects the head and neck far better in a frontal crash.
Age or weight - which decides the stage?
Weight (and height) beat age whenever they disagree. Always follow the seat's printed weight limits.
Is ISOFIX necessary in India?
Not mandatory, but it sharply reduces installation errors. Most Indian cars from 2019 onward have ISOFIX anchors in the rear seat.
