To make your child comfortably installed in the car, it is important to choose a secure car seat suitable for their age. Swivel, tilting, with ISOFIX technology … Here is our buying guide to find the best equipment.
Babies grow very quickly, and it’s not just their clothes that you have to change regularly. This is also the case with the car seat! After the birth model (group 0+), you have to switch to a larger model, from group 1. If you don’t want to invest and, above all, do research several times, you can opt for a scalable car seat, from the 1/2/3 group! The latter grow at the same time as the child, and some can even be used from birth. We then speak of a car seat group 0+/1/2/3. To make sure that this is a model in this category, look at the description. This must indicate that it can be used until the age of 10/12, when your child will weigh around 36 kilos. These models are evolving, in the sense that they adapt to the size of the child. The padding can sometimes be removed, the headrest and the armrests are adjustable in different positions, the attachment system changes. For babies, they offer a five -point harness, which can sometimes turn into three points when the child grows. Then, the harness can be removed, and the child attached to the vehicle’s safety belt. After ensuring that the model that caught your attention brings together all these criteria, you may be interested in the options. Discover our selection of 1/2/3 group car seats!
Some car seats are inclincing, other swivels, which makes it easier to attach the child with the harness. You must also make sure that the model is compatible with your vehicle. Finally, you have to ask yourself the question of fixing the car. Do you prefer to fix it with the ISOFIX system or with the seat belt? Some car seats offer the two options, but this is not the case for everyone! You must therefore check that the one you want to buy has the right attachment system.
