Buying baby
car seats has become as important as buying prams for a baby. This is
because more and more families find it affordable to have a car today and when
you have a toddler in the family; it only becomes appropriate to have a car
seat fitted in the vehicle. Not only do these car seats ensure comfort for your
baby, but they also offer optimum safety, if chosen correctly. Due to their
growing importance, baby car seats
are now available in different sizes, designs and from various brands. However,
there are certain factors that you need to look into when buying a suitable car
seat for your little one.
Perfect fit for the baby
One of the most important factors when
choosing child seats is that your
baby should fit into it perfectly. You can ensure this by using your baby’s
age, weight and height to pick a suitable seat. Baby car seats come in rear-facing and front facing designs and
choosing either of these depends on the baby’s weight. It is also important
that you read the weight and height limit list on the seat before buying it.
This will ensure that it is not an inappropriate choice.
The fit in the vehicle
As baby car seats
come in a range of styles like buckets and benches, it is important to remember
that all seats are not suitable for all cars. When buying this kind of a seat,
ensure that it fits into the vehicle tightly. It should be at a proper angle
and should not move about once fitted. Certain providers allow you to fit a
store model to ensure the fit in the vehicle. But if this is not possible, look
for a provider that has a return policy in case the seat does not fit in your
car.
Easy installation
When buying childseats, it is necessary that you select one that is easy to install and
un-install as and when required. Remember, regardless of how many features the
seat has and how safe it claims to be, it will not serve the purpose of keeping
your baby safe, if you do not take time to install in carefully. Ensure you
read the manual and follow installing instruction correctly or have a
professional install the seat for you.
Car seat accessories
Some baby car seat accessories come in a package deal to
enhance the safety of the seat. However, there are those that are not
necessarily created for that specific seat. In most cases, car seat accessories
that do not come with the seat itself, are not crash tested to make the seat safer.
In fact, in many instances these accessories can cause more damage than harm.
For this reason, it is advisable that you skip unnecessary car seat
accessories, unless it is recommended by the child car seats manufacturer.
