Which car seat group do I need?

At first glance, buying a new car seat for your child mind seem like a bit of a headache, but we hope that if you follow the MumStore advice it may mean that your decision making process is made a bit more comfortable.

Firstly, you need to know what your child weighs - as this is how car seats as a whole are tested and grouped together. Once you know the weight of your child you can then look into the group of the car seat thay they should be in.

Below are the main car seat groups...
