The comfort of the Dualfix 2 R swivel car seat

One of the main features of the car seat Britax Dualfix 2R is the 360° rotation of the seat. The mechanism is extremely simple and intuitive to operate. At the touch of a button, you can turn the seat in the desired direction. The Dualfix 2 R can be swivelled facing the door of the car to install and secure your child more easily. Then simply turn the seat to the desired position, back or facing the road, until it locks. Previously, this adjustment had to be made using several levers, which was impractical.

For prolonged rear-facing use, the Dualfix 2R is probably the model in its category that offers the most legroom for children, thanks in particular to a anti-rebound bar space. On the downside, the seat will require you to reduce the space available for the front passenger seat.

The child is secured in the seat with the straps of the five-point harness with large, comfortable neoprene chest pads.

The height of the headrest can be easily adjusted at the same time as the five-point harness. The headrest and straps have enough positions to adapt optimally to the child's size. until around the age of 4.
Thanks to several tilt positions, the Dualfix 2R can be adapted to the child's needs. This model has four rear-facing reclining positions but also four positions facing the road. In the rear-facing position, the seat is reclined more deeply for a more comfortable position for the little ones' nap.
As car journeys can hold a few surprises in store, the seat covers are made entirely of leather. removable covers for easy machine washing.

The different Britax Dualfix models

• Le Dualfix i-Size is a model that complies with the R129 (i-Size) regulation, which requires children to be in the rear-facing position until they are at least 15 months old. It is designed for children from birth to 105 cm and includes a removable insert for infants.
• Le Dualfix M i-Size is not suitable for infants, as it is designed for children from 61 to 105 cm (approx. 3 months to 4 years). Like its big brother, it also complies with R129 (i-Size) regulations.
• Le Dualfix 2 R is the successor to Dualfix, the original Britax back/road swivel car seat. Offered at a more attractive price, this model, designed for children from birth to 18 kg, does not benefit from all the latest innovations. Unlike other Dualfix models, it doesn't have a reducer for newborns (sold separately), an adjustable anti-rebound bar or a side protection system (SICT Inside).
