Tips for buying a safe car seat

Proper weight
Never buy a car seat that is too big, make sure it is appropriate for your child’s weight from the first day of use. The appropriate weight category is stated on the quality mark. Age categories are also often stated but, because one child can be heavier than the other, the age group should be considered primarily an indication.

Bring your car
When buying a car seat, bring your car to check whether the seat can be installed properly in the vehicle. Always have the salesperson explain how the seat should be installed and used. It is important that the seat be installed in the car as securely as possible.

Avoid second-hand car seats
There are many items you can buy second-hand for your child or that you can borrow from family and friends. After all, by the time the baby comes, you will need to buy plenty of things, most of which you will only need for a relatively short time. But, as tempting as it might be, it is not a good idea to use a second-hand car seat. Every used car seat has a history. You never know how it was used and whether or not it was involved in an accident. Moreover, the instruction manual is often missing or the seat is incomplete. And how can you know whether it complies with the most recent European safety standard (ECE R44/04)? In the end, the financial advantages do not out weigh the risks for your child. You should therefore ALWAYS buy a new car seat.

How do I transport my child safely?
Unfortunately, many people do not transport their children safely. Studies have shown that 70 to 80 percent of car owners with young children do not install their car seat properly. The seat is either not securely installed in the car or is facing the wrong direction. Old or poorly fitting car seats are also used. All of this can have serious consequences for the safety of your child.
