Current verdict: Not recommended (Update, January 2023)

The Infa Comfi Caprice can no longer be recommended, due to the wide wings on the seat and slots above the booster mark that allow some parents to re-thread the harness into an incorrect position. There are better options on the market for a convertible booster seat.

Booster seats should be evaluated not just on safety ratings, but on usability and comfort too. Customer feedback often highlights the importance of easy installation and adjustment options.

📜 Original review (superseded)

The Comfi was originally recommended for parents wanting a top-rated forward-facing restraint with innovations in safety, comfort, and ergonomics. It featured in the CREP report as a high-rating option, and included Air Cocoon Technology to help keep children safer — a feature that, unlike some other manufacturers, was only available on Infa Secure’s premium seats.

🛡️ Anti-submarining by design

The Comfi Caprice includes a simple seat belt path and a unique anti-submarining design, aiming for a safe and comfortable convertible booster seat.

Infa incorporated a “pommel” design into the seat base — the air-bag-like blow-moulded construction acts somewhat like an airbag. The sloped surface directs force downward rather than laterally, decelerating the child and reducing forward motion and submarining.

The Comfi Caprice also comes with an adjustable, removable headrest pad, a plush extra seat pad, shoulder strap pads, and a crotch buckle pad.

📋

The Comfi is a forward-facing restraint, usable with the built-in harness from approximately 6 months through to 4 years old. Once your child reaches the middle shoulder height marker, you can convert it into a booster seat.

🪑 Booster mode

📋

In booster mode, the anti-submarining armrests work together with the base to keep the lap belt positioned down across your child’s lap. The included Safe-Grip Belt Clamp helps stop the lap belt riding up into your child’s abdominal area.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Is the Infa Secure Comfi Caprice still recommended?
No — as of a January 2023 update, we no longer recommend it, due to the wide wings and the risk of incorrectly re-threading the harness through slots above the booster mark.
Why was the recommendation changed in 2023?
Real-world use showed that some parents could re-thread the harness through slots above the booster mark, resulting in an incorrect harness position — a genuine safety concern that outweighs the seat’s earlier positive features.
What is Air Cocoon Technology?
A feature originally highlighted in our review, available on Infa Secure’s premium seats — though it doesn’t offset the harness re-threading concern that led to our current “not recommended” verdict.
What is anti-submarining design?
A sloped seat base design that directs crash force downward rather than laterally, helping decelerate the child and reduce forward motion — the “pommel” shape works somewhat like an airbag.
When can I convert it to booster mode?
Once your child’s shoulders reach the middle shoulder height marker on the seat.
What age range does it suit?
As a forward-facing harnessed restraint, approximately 6 months to 4 years, converting to booster mode once your child reaches the middle shoulder height marker.
