Getting The Right Baby Car Seat
We all want to keep our children safe, and when they are just babies it’s important to find the right baby car seats for your vehicle. Unfortunately a lot of parents don’t have enough knowledge about them outside of looking for the best price. Today we want to help you learn more about finding the right car seat, and what your choice should include.
During the searching process you have to address the basic safety issues. Connecting the seat belt securely is probably the first place most parents look. This should come with an integrated LATCH system or a Lower Anchor and Tether for Children. It’s what fastens the car seat to your vehicle’s seat. So whenever you’re in a normal driving situation the baby seat will stable, especially with the regular seat belt being used as well.
You should also find a baby seat that offers the Versa Tether Energy Absorbing system. If by chance you have to stop suddenly, the VTEA system holds the seat in place. A great example is the Graco Nautilus 3-in-1 Car Seat. Basically it keeps the seat from moving unexpectedly up to 6 inches, which is also an integrated part of the LATCH system.
EPS foam is the same kind of foam that goes into bicycle helmets and is a great addition to baby car seats. In the event of an accident, this foam is designed to divert the forces of a crash away from your baby. It also puts an extra barrier between them and hard surfaces. Then there is the HUGS harness, which is used to prevent any kind of movement, such as if you are involved in a side car crash, or even hit from behind.
However, all this is great, but one of the most important safety aspects of a car seat is the safety harness. A child seat safety harness should be a five point system, completely securing you child in the seat, and form fitting so they have a range of motion, but are not able to get out of it on their own. Graco Nautilus Car Seat has a good review on this. It should also securely latch down to the seat itself, with the latch out of their reach.
You should also consider your child’s comfort so you can focus on driving and not on the baby. There will be times when it gets dirty and needs a nice cleansing process, which means the cushioning should be able to be detached. You can place this in the washer and wipe down the body of the seat. If you’re looking for something that will last 5 or 6 years, try to find one of the Graco Nautilus Car Seat. They can change from rear-facing to front-facing, and when your baby becomes a toddler it can become a booster seat.
We understand the cost will come into play, but don’t ever skimp on quality and safety for the overall price. We’re talking about the safety of your child, so forget about those second hand store opportunities. Used car seats have already been through a lot, and they may not have the same structural integrity as a brand new option. So how much do they cost? If you want plenty of quality in your baby’s car seat then expect to pay one hundred to two hundred dollars.
