Maxi Cosi Mico 12 LX Pro vs Mico 12 LX – Which Should You Choose?
If you are deciding between the Maxi Cosi Mico 12 LX Pro and the Mico 12 LX, the key difference comes down to installation flexibility, materials and ease of use.

| Fabrics | EcoCare recycled fabrics | Bamboo/Cool Baby™ fabrics |
| Newborn Fit | Improved fit for smaller newborns | Standard newborn support |

These capsules are highly recommended avoiding chin to chest. I was going to hire one because of the price but found it on a great sale I couldn’t pass up here. Arrived within a few weeks and well worth the wait for the price. I know its going to make life easier with a newborn and toddler. Can’t wait to get some use out of it soon.

Can’t fault this car seat capsule. Perfect car seat for my bubs with great protection. Hassle free to move bubs in and out of the car.

We hadn’t used a capsule before but we love that this one lasts until 12 months. High quality, soft materials for bub and it’s light and easy to click into our car and Vista pram. Great customer service too!

This capsule is excellent. Our Bub loved it from day 1, it is very comfortable for him. The magnets in the side to hold the buckles out of the was while you put Bub into the seat are so helpful, especially to stop a wrestling match or waking a sleeping baby trying to find the straps underneath them. The base was simple and easy to install, and the seat is easy to remove and adds to the convenience factor. I highly recommend this capsule!

This will be our first time use it a capsule, I chose this one due to it having extended use up to 12 months, so we are looking forward to getting heaps of use out of it. It looks super comfy, has great features, and I love the colour. Delivery was quick, we got a great price and we were update regularly re the postage. Thanks guys

We received the package when they said and right to our door( we live out of town so super happy) the staff kept us informed about any delays and were very polite. As for the product itself I was stunned at how well made it was and easy to use. The capsule is a gift for my daughter and this is the one she wanted its light compared to others that she had been looking at, I would recommend this product to anyone who is thinking about a safe and appealing baby capsule. My daughter is going to send me photos of the capsule in use and I will place the picture on bubsngrubs website
