Adjustments

Backrest tilt adjustment. The backrest tilt can be adjusted. This point is different for various weight groups. In groups 0+ and 1 not the backrest, but the whole seat tilts against the fixed base, and in groups 2 and 2/3 only the backrest tilts. The possibility of adjusting the backrest tilt is important if the child is in the car for a long time – by tilting the backrest you can let the child sleep or rest.

Headrest height adjustment. According to safety requirements, the child's head should not be more than one third above the headrest, so it is necessary to adjust the headrest as the child grows.

Harness height adjustment. The ability to adjust the height of car seat harnesses — such a need arises as the child grows.

Backrest width adjustment. The ability to adjust the width of the backrest allows you to optimally adjust the car seat not only for constantly changing height, but also for the child's complexion.

Horizontal position of a backrest. The backrest of the car seat is horizontal. The horizontal position is optimal for babies under the age of six months, since it avoids unnecessary stress on the spine, therefore group 0 car seats usually have this function.

Removable backrest. It is possible to comp...letely remove the backrest of the car seat. This function expands the possibilities of the seat: it can be used both for its intended purpose, with a backrest, and as a booster (for more information on boosters, refer to "Weight group 3").

Swivel system. The seat swivels relative to a fixed base. This makes it easier to drop off and pick up the child: during these operations, the seat can be turned to face the car door, and when driving, it can be positioned in or against the direction of travel.

Material

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.

Country of origin

The country of origin of the brand under which the product is marketed. Often indicated by the nationality of the company or the location of its headquarters. At the same time, the actual production capacity of the brand often differs from the country of origin.

The quality of products is more influenced by the organization of processes and quality control at all production stages than by geography. Therefore, biases against brands from specific regions are generally unfounded. Consideration of a brand's country of origin becomes relevant only when the goal is to actively support or avoid manufacturers from a particular state.
