Thankfully the second seat I purchased in one day keeps my grandson securely restrained.
I drove to another mothercare today said i had brought this seat and that my grandchild able to get his arms out within 20 minutes of purchasing it, the lady came out to the car as soon as i opened the door she said that strap should not be twisted when i said it's the way the store fitted it, i told her the chap tried several seats before saying this one was ok, she told me to take it back it's not right for my car. I then took out my receipt and said i have brought it back she was a bit shocked. So much for Mothercare fitters and child safety.
Please don't be so quick to blame the parent/grandparent by saying the straps were not tight enough I did every thing the chap told me to do, Maxi Cosi Tobi £169.99 2 fingers at the shoulder, the strap has a green arrow, when pulled as tight as it can go the green arrow tells you it is fitted correctly. All the was done.

I didn't mean to make it sound that you done something wrong, but anyway, did you go back to the shop you got it from? you should put in a complaint about the member of staff that fitted your seat, he has obviously not been trained properly and if he has fitted other seats (& not properly) then other children might not be so safe!
Im reading this back to myself now and i sound nasty but i don't mean to be i'm just conserned for people.

I bought my daughters car seat from a toys r us when she was about 10 months old, they showed me how it was fitted but then took it out so I could pay for it. When I asked if they'd fit it they told me they weren't allowed which I think all stores should do, if an accident was to happen or like your case where it wasn't fitted properly the store is covered as they wouldn't fit it!

Okay. I just had my car seat fitted 2 hours ago! What a coincidence. The baby is due today. Hope you all are safe and sound on the road. Blessings.
