Nania Rimini i-Size
From 40 cm, up to 87 cm (~newborn to 18 months).
Pros / Cons
Pros
- Rimini is easy to defend if you want a light, straightforward infant carrier without paying for a larger rotating seat too early. The low weight and simple rear-facing-only job make it easier to move in and out of the car.
- The optional ISOFIX base gives you a cleaner everyday path if you want it later, but the seat still works as a simple belt-installed newborn carrier from the start.
Cons
- It only covers the infant stage, so this is the right buy only if you are comfortable moving on to a follow-on seat later rather than trying to solve everything now.
- The value story is simplicity rather than luxury, so everyday substance, long-use comfort, and convenience are more basic than on pricier infant-seat systems.

Nania Rimini i-Size works best if you still believe in the simple infant-carrier path. It is not trying to be a forever seat. It is a light rear-facing-only shell that keeps the first stage straightforward, can install with the vehicle belt, and can move to an optional ISOFIX base if you want a more convenient routine later. For families who do not want to jump straight into a bulky all-stage seat, that is still a sensible and often better-balanced way to start.
The obvious limit is duration. Rimini only handles the infant phase, so you are choosing a cleaner first-stage setup now in exchange for needing a follow-on seat later. That is usually a good trade if you value portability and simplicity, but it is the wrong trade if your only goal is to avoid buying another seat in the future.
