Foonf and Fllo are both the best selling baby car seats. Both will be the ideal baby car seats for your child. They come with an ARB (anti rebound bar), however the Foonf’s ARB is required to be used at all times while the Fllo has a removable ARB. This gives Foonf an easy recline as if the ARB is removed in Fllo you will need a towel to have an additional recline. These are considered as the best slimline car seats of 2019.
In the Foonf, the reclining mechanism is supported by a base which aids in its 3 recline positions but in Floo you get a recline foot which can move forward and backwards to aid the recline.

Usage According to Height and Weight of Baby
Multiple configuration usage
Both the Foonf and Fllo can be used in two positions, i.e. the rear facing and the forward facing. Keeping the child rear facing is safer.
Rear facing
Both Foonf and Fllo come with rear facing weight range of 14 – 50 pounds and a height range of 25 to 43.99 inches
Forward facing
The forward facing position in both these seats can accommodate from 20 – 65 pounds and a height which can be between 30 to 49 inches.
Clek Foonf Vs Fllo installation
The installation in the Foonf and the Fllo is a bit different. As we know that the Foonf has two sets of lower anchor connectors, the rear facing lower anchor connector strap can be fastened independently on each side in the rear facing mode while the Fllo uses only one strap which you will have to move from the belt path of the rear facing to the forward facing to suite your need.
Foonf uses flexible connector strap for rear facing and a rigid connector for the forward facing but Fllo does not have the rigid connector. So you will have to use either the seat belt or the lower anchor connectors.
