The advantages and advantages of Heyner boosters
Booster is a device for transporting children in the car. It differs from the car seat in that in the booster there is only a seat and there is no back. It is needed in order to lift the child above the level of the car seat and so that the seat belt, which they fasten passengers to, correctly lays down and does not over-tighten the neck. The booster takes up much less space in the car, while the seat remains the same. If necessary, the machine can be installed two or three of these seats.
The car seat booster can be used for children from the age of three. When selecting a device, it is necessary to take into account the height and weight of the child. Models of the previous generation were designed for passengers, whose height reached 135 cm, and weight 22 kg. Today, booster versions are available in which you can transport children from 100 cm with a minimum weight of 15 kg.
Replace the child in the booster should be when he ceases to fit in a classic chair.
