The BubsNest Verdict

This is a proper investment piece that grows with your child for over a decade and keeps them rear-facing until age 4, which is brilliant for safety. Perfect for parents who want one seat to rule them all and don't mind the bulk, but skip it if you frequently move car seats between vehicles or need something lightweight.

⚠️The weight (around 15kg) makes this a nightmare to transfer between cars—treat it as a permanent installation in one vehicle.

BubsNest expert analysis of 3 parenting forum discussions

8.1

Loved It

The Silver Cross Motion 2 All Size car seat is a well-reviewed, versatile option that covers children from birth to 12 years. It offers extended rear-facing up to age 4, good safety ratings, and a sturdy, adjustable design, making it a solid long-term choice for UK parents.

What parents love

SafetyThe Motion 2 has a 'good' ADAC safety rating and features force-absorbing technology and extended rear-facing capability up to 18kg, which is recommended for optimal child safety.

ComfortParents praise the plush padding and adjustable headrest and harness, which allow the seat to grow with the child and provide a comfortable ride.

Ease of UseThe car seat is easy to get children in and out of, with simple strap adjustments and a smooth 360-degree swivel that makes loading and unloading easier.

Worth knowing

WeightAt 14.4kg, the Motion 2 is quite heavy, which could make it challenging to move the seat between vehicles.

PortabilityAs a fixed car seat, the Motion 2 cannot be removed from the car, limiting its portability and preventing it from being used as part of a travel system.

PriceWith a price range of £299-£325, the Motion 2 is on the more expensive end of the car seat market.

Best for

Parents seeking a long-lasting, versatile car seat that can accommodate their child from birth to 12 years
Families who prioritise extended rear-facing safety and a sturdy, well-constructed design
Those with ample space in their vehicles who don't need a portable, travel-system compatible seat

May not suit

Parents with limited boot space or who need to frequently move the car seat between vehicles
Families looking for a more budget-friendly option or a car seat that can be used as part of a travel system
Those who prefer a lighter, more compact car seat for ease of installation and transfer

Tips from parents

Installation

Take the time to properly install the Motion 2 using the ISOFIX system, as this ensures a secure, stable fit in the vehicle.

Adjustments

Familiarise yourself with the seat's eight headrest height settings and harness adjustments to ensure a comfortable, customised fit as your child grows.

Cleaning

Remove the liner regularly and machine wash it to keep the seat fresh and hygienic, especially if transporting messy toddlers.

Compatibility

Measure your car's dimensions carefully to ensure the Motion 2's size and bulk will fit comfortably, as it may not be suitable for smaller vehicles.
