Comparison Heyner Capsula MultiFix AERO vs Heyner Capsula MultiFix ERGO

— Seat belt. Installation with the car seat belt. In weight groups 0, 0+ and 1, only the seat is secured in this way; the child's safety is ensured by the seat's own belts. In weight groups 2 and 3, the car belt is used to secure both the seat and the child.

— Tor Tether. An additional harness to increase the security of fixation used in seats with Isofix and Latch systems (see below). One end of the harness is attached to the upper part of the backrest and the other end is attached to a special bracket installed in the floor of the car behind the seat or in the trunk. This reduces the likelihood of the seat being knocked over in a sudden braking or frontal impact and increases the overall safety of the small passenger.

— Support leg. An additional attachment in the form of a support running from the bottom of the seat to the floor of the car. The purpose is similar to the Top Tether described above: it increases the safety of the seat and reduces the risk of the seat toppling when the car comes to a sudden stop. It is most often used with the Isofix system.

— ISOFIX. The installation system for car seats in the weight category up to 18 kg is primarily found in cars from European manufacturers. The seat is secured with two locks in the rear lower part, with optional additional attachments at the top and/or b...ottom. The design ensures foolproof installation, making it nearly impossible to install the seat incorrectly. Isofix requires the car to be equipped with suitable brackets, but even without them, these seats can usually be securely installed using the regular seat belt. However, this option may not be cost-effective, as seats with the Isofix system tend to be relatively expensive.

— LATCH. Installation system similar to Isofix. It is used mainly in American cars and, accordingly, in car seats of American manufacturers. The seat is attached at three points — two at the bottom of the seat and one at the top — so that the seat cannot be installed incorrectly. Like Isofix, seats with Latch also allow fixation with the normal car seat belt.

The car seat has structural elements that further protect the child from side impacts. At least such elements include sidewalls for head protection made of impact-absorbing material such as polyurethane foam; torso protection may also be provided. If you are looking for a car seat with the maximum level of protection, you should choose from models with additional side protection.

— Polyester. Polyester is a synthetic fabric made from polyester fibers. The car seats with polyester upholstery have a pleasant to the touch surface. The material itself is not hygroscopic and is not subject to bacterial contamination. It is sufficiently resistant to mechanical stress and does not fade in the sun.

— Microfiber. Microfiber is made from polyamides. The main feature of microfiber is the unique structure of the fabric. This material consists of numerous micropores, which explains the good ventilation of microfiber. Microfiber-based coverings have a pleasant tactile sensation. The material belongs to the category of well ventilated and breathable. Despite its synthetic origin, microfiber absorbs moisture well, but is easy to wash and dries quickly.

— Alcantara. The car seat with alcantara has an attractive appearance and excellent performance. Alcantara is an artificial suede leather, it is a very durable and practical material. It is easy to clean, does not absorb moisture and does not require any special maintenance. Alcantara is made from a mix of polyester and polyurethane fibers, as a result of complex chemical processing. It is considered one of the most prestigious materials.

— Eco-leather. Car seats with eco-leather coverings are characterized by high practicality, reliability and durability. This material has hi...gh wear resistance and is absolutely hypoallergenic. An important difference between eco-leather and genuine one is the thickness of the material — eco-leather is noticeably thicker, but thanks to this it has higher and strength characteristics. However, it is impossible to distinguish a good expensive eco-leather from a natural one at a glance.

— Leather. Genuine leather upholstery is characteristic of premium car seats for kids. This material looks prestigious and solid, while possessing the highest durability and wear resistance. The natural origin of the leather excludes the appearance of the child any allergic reactions to the seat. Also genuine leather is valued for the fineness of dressing, provided that the material retains high durability characteristics. In addition, it is able to absorb moisture.

— Suede. The suede covering will make your child feel comfortable and cozy. Like genuine leather, suede has good durability. This material has waterproof properties and does not require any special maintenance. Suede is obtained by chemical processing of genuine leather with subsequent tanning.
