Britax tow-way vs multi-tech

Hello
I'm new around here. I have a baby at 12 months and live in Portugal.
We are trying to buy a new chair for our Eva.
We want to travel as she turned back time, but around here no chairs that allow the sale because the rules say that from 9 kg they can travel forward facing, we know that is unsafe.
We saw the TOW-way and multi-tech's BRITAX and we have to come from a Swedish site, but we have some doubts, we could be helping?
What are the differences between these chairs, this is our doubts.
Thank you.:thumbsup:

Both these seas are very popular since they are very easy to install, take relatively little room, and allow rear facing far longer than any other seats in the world. Both allow rear facing to 55 lbs (25 kg) and can also be used forward facing as high back boosters after rear facing time is over.

Two-Way: One of few Swedish high weight rear facing sets which install without a support leg in the back. It fits especially well in some cars with underfloor storage (Touran, C4 Picasso, Scenic, etc.). rear facing to 25 kg, forward facing to 25 kg with seat belt as a high back boosters and the only seat in Europe which also allow forward facing with harness to 25 kg.

The seat can be installed in two different angles depending on age of child but reality is that angle can be adjusted in almost any way. Two-Way is light and very comfortable seat. It needs relatively little room and can aslo be used in small cars such as Peugeot 207. It can handle a child of 120 cm with a 46 cm torso quite easily which means rear facing to age 5 for most children.

Multi Tech: Another very popular seat, it allows rear facing longest in the world due to an expandable head rest. A little heavier than Two-Way and installs with a support leg. Still needs relatively little room and fits fine in cars such as Golf and Peugeot 307. The seat has deep "wings" and perhaps a little better side impact protection than Two-Way. It allows rear facing to 25 kg, forward facing with harness to 18 kg. and forward facing with a seat belt as a high back booster to 25 kg.

It can handle children larger than 120 cm and 47 cm torso which means a little longer rear facing time than Two-Way. It needs about same space as Two-Way but installs a bit more upright and angle is not as adjustable. Count on usage from around 8 months to 8 years.

Both these seats offer similar great safety and rock solid installation without any special equipment.

If you have have questions or want to see more photos of kids in the different seats, please search this site or email me at hakan@carseat.se

Hello again.
First of all thank you for helping Adventured.
If you can send me some pictures please, I will send my email by private message.
Yesterday we learned that Volvo is here in Portugal to sell Multi-tech as a chair them, I'm trying to make an appointment to try it in my car.

Brio Zento is a good seat but not very popular. Seat shell is quite a bit shorter than Two-Way and especially Multi Tech. The seat also needs quite a bit of room due to its construction.

If you send me your email address I'll email you some photos of TW and MT.

BTW, what car do you drive?
