    How to tilt/recline a maxi rider car seat??

    As the subject says - has anyone successfully reclined a maxi rider car seat??

    I've got two sleeping kidlets in the car and I'm wondering how I could recline them as they both look rather uncomfortable... Apparently this model does recline somehow!

    Anyone done it?? How do I do it?

    I don't think it can be reclined once installed. Think you'd have to take it out and adjust it?

    You have to recline it with the stabilizer bit at the back and then install it into the car. Can't be done while in the car. We keep ours in the reclined position for DD so when she falls asleep her head doesn't flop fwd.

    Yeah that.

    Our is always reclined too so that DDs head isn't always flopping around so much when she sleeps.

    Did they sleep for long?

    On our way home now, they both slept ok on the way up, except ds had his head right down, we haven't reclined the seats so we will have to try it when they are out.

    Thanks for the tips!

    They have three different recline positions - DD is one the one that reclines the least, she always falls asleep in the car and her head never falls forward. Good luck!
