Tips and tricks
Choosing a child seat in the car, you must carefully examine all the points and nuances. Experts recommend first of all to pay attention to the following parameters.
- The chair should be frame. It will significantly protect the child in case of an accident and collision. The presence of a soft seat will allow the child to comfortably move the trip.
- Backrest positions. It is recommended to choose a chair with at least two positions. Ideally, there should be four of them so that the child can not only sit but also lie down.
- Type of chair. Depending on the age and weight of the child, it is necessary to choose the type of car seat. Transformable seats suitable for any age should be acquired when the child is one year old. For newborns and children under one year this type of chair will be inconvenient.
- Removable covers and accessories. Depending on the situation, they can be easily changed to another cover or dry-cleaned. The material of the cover and overhead attachments on the seat belts must be of natural origin and not have additional dyes, as this may cause allergies in the child.
- Headrest must fix the baby’s neck well, otherwise the baby may get spinal injuries when moving.
- Seat belts need to pick up with a considerable margin of length. In winter, when the child is wearing more clothes, you will need a longer belt than in summer. If possible, it is more convenient to purchase a seat with automatic belt adjustment. Usually it is located on the back of the car seat and is easily started even by the child.
- Required from the seller availability of a certificate of safety and quality. All models must pass the crash test.
These recommendations are fully taken into account when developing models of car seats brand Bertoni, which is why they are chosen by the majority.
