protect™ i-Size infant car seat with recline and rotating isofix base
-
Designed for absolute ease and comfort for both parent and baby, protect™ is an exceptional infant car seat delivering innovation like no other. With the highest safety standards with i-Size, a lightweight carry, and considered luxury comfort, all thoughtfully engineered to make life easier from the first journey out the hospital doors.
The included 360° swivel unity base lets you rotate the seat toward you while in the car, giving you effortless access to secure and adjust the harness and lift your baby in and out – reducing strain and awkward angles while staying in protect™.
Its reclinable back allows for supporting your baby’s comfort and rest wherever the day takes you – in the car with one recline position, or on the buggy and at home with four additional recline angles off the base.
protect™ also makes a beautiful travel system by seamlessly clicking onto your buggy, allowing your little one to rest so you can continue to move freely through your day with fewer disruptions, knowing your baby is at their best ergonomic lie flat position.
From intuitive usability to uncompromising safety, protect™ is designed to give you freedom and confidence during your baby’s earliest adventures.
protect™ is built for life. Built for you.
unity™ base
An innovative 360° swivel car seat base that takes you safely across a newborn to toddler journey sustainably.
The unity™ base helps ensure your car seat is correctly secured every time it’s used, with its ISOFIX connectors. The convenient rotation system allows you to turn your child toward you while still in the car, making it easier for parents to place them in and out of the seat, correctly adjust and fit the harness, and remove the car seat from the vehicle while they remain securely seated.
This unique base is interchangeable and can be used between protect™ infant car seat AND safe rotate™ convertible car seat, delivering sustainability, ease and absolute value for money.
One base. Two interchanging systems. Simply connect, rotate and go.
Note: When paired with protect™, the base rotates 180°, allowing for easy side access during those early months.
When used with safe rotate™, the base offers a full 360° rotation, supporting both rear-facing and forward-facing use.

**SAFETY NOTICE**
We encourage customers to always check the integrity of their car seat and base while in use, for expert advice on this car seat consult your user manual and your trusted retailer.
We recommend replacing any car seat that has been involved in a crash. Even if it looks fine, there could be internal damage that would make it unsafe. The seat has done its job by protecting your child and therefore needs replacing. Most insurance companies will cover this expense. To be sure, please request a police report on the accident.
