How to Choose the Best car seat newborn (historydb.date)

The best car seat newborn is one that is compliant with federal safety standards, is compatible with your vehicle, comes with useful extras (like making it the stroller) and works with your budget. It is also important to ensure that the car seat is easily inserted into and out of any vehicle, especially if you are frequently switching between rental cars, taxis or the vehicles of your grandparents.

Safety

Car seats are made to ensure your baby is safe and a quality one should include additional features that go beyond the safety standards set by the federal government. They include padded inserts for the head and shoulders as well as air-repellent fabric to help keep them cool in hot cars, and side-impact protection.

Easy installation and use of the seat is another important aspect to consider for safety. Ideally, the seat should be simple to install and use, as well as clear indicators of its height and position as well as security.

Find features that help you do that, like locks built-in to the seat and belt guides that assist to align the car seat with the seat belt. Also, you should avoid buying used car seats that may not be tested for safety or have been involved in an accident, and could not protect your child. If you are forced to purchase a used car seat, make sure that it has an expiration and that the seller isn't a private person who does not have proof of ownership.

It's also important to remember that you should only leave your baby in the car seat for up to two hours per day, unless it's in a flat position. This will help prevent strain on the spine of your child, and ensure that they are able to breathe regularly.

Choosing an infant car seat is a significant investment therefore you'll need to make sure that it has a long life span. Choose a seat that will grow with your child's age and last from toddlerhood through the teen years. Our parent testers were very impressed with the Axkid i-Size. It is suitable for children from birth, and is able to be used up to age 7.

The Nuna pipa air rx is an alternative that can be used for a long time. It rotates 360 degrees, so you can change it from rear-facing into front-facing as the child grows. It's also one of the lightest rotating car seats available and weighs less than nine pounds without its base. It's a great choice for parents who regularly transfer their children between cars or plan to use it for taxi rides, fly-drive holidays, and trips to grandparent's houses.

Comfort

A well-designed infant car seat will be comfortable for your baby both when they are in the seat and when you are installing it. Look for straps that are padded to are comfortable to wear on their shoulders. Also, look for soft fabric that is soft under their stomach, particularly when they are in the seat for long trips.

The most effective infant car seats are also easy to use. Some come with premium LATCH connectors that feature a SuperCinch force multiplier that tightens the seat. Some also have spring-loaded leveling legs and belt paths that make installing without a base easier than ever. Other features allow you to adjust the height of the harness and headrest which is crucial as your child grows.

Cosatto All in All Rotate is an example. Our parent testers gave it a score of 10 out of 10. It has a clear, simple interface, a no-rethread easy-to adjust harness, a 360-degree rotation, as well as recline lock indicators. It is possible to easily change your child from rear-facing to front-facing as they grow without having to remove and replace the seat.

Another example is the Nuna Pipa aire rx, which our testers who were parents loved for its comfort, ease of use and flexibility. Its padding for the headrest and shoulder straps are designed to support the head of your newborn and includes an extra soft pillow to ensure comfort. It can be used as an rear-facing car seat until your baby is at the maximum height or weight limits and then it can be converted into a stroller without the need for an additional adapter.

A high-quality car seat is durable and some have a warranty. Find a seat that has plenty of padding and durable materials to shield your child from accidents. It should also come with an aluminum frame to withstand impact energy and a "crumple area" to prevent crash damage. It is also easy to clean, since messes are inevitable when you have a baby. To simplify cleaning, look for a car seat that has removable covers and pads that can be washed in the machine.

Easy of Use

A car seat must be easy to install and use particularly if you're likely to be using it in the same vehicle from time to time. Look for features such as an easy-release buckle, an indicator that indicates the state of the latch system (e.g., green for locked) and a user-friendly manual to make it as easy as is possible.

The Best of The Bump winner also has a number of useful extras that our parents testers loved, including an padded headrest and padded harness with a plush material and a cup holder. It features a reclining function that lets your child sit in a comfortable and ergonomic position during longer journeys. It can be combined with a compatible buggy for a complete travel system. This is ideal if you are planning to travel for a long duration.

Our panelists found that the car seat was easy to put in and adjust. It has a recline lock indicator and an exclusive LATCH connector with a SuperCinch force-multiplying tightener that made securing your child quick and easy. It's also designed to be easily moved from side to side in the vehicle without the necessity of tools.

One of our top features is the reclining feature that allows you to easily get your infant into and out of the car. This is particularly useful for those who have back pain or drive a small vehicle. It also features a reversible drink holder, as well as a handy storage compartment for toys and snacks.

The seat is light and can be used without or with the base. It can also rotate 180 degrees, which could be a real lifesaver if you have limited space or struggle with back pain. Our panelists were thrilled by this feature, which was a finalist in our 2021 Mother&Baby awards.

This is a great choice for those looking to convert their car seats into strollers for an affordable cost. Its sleek design and high-quality fabric will also stand the test of time. Don't forget to wash the cover often as spills of yoghurt or biscuits that are crushed, and even sickening accidents with toddlers will leave their marks.

Design

Car seat designs are as varied as the cars they're used in. While some parents opt to leave infant car seats out and opt for convertible models, most new mothers want a seat that can develop with their baby as they reach toddlerhood. The most flexible option is an all-in-one baby car seat, which allows you to change between rear-facing and forward-facing. It typically has a greater weight and height limit, and can be used as a booster when your child is old enough.

The ideal car seat for infants for newborns is lightweight and easy to remove from the base with your child inside. The Maxi-Cosi Coral is available in only a handful of colors, however it comes with a wide array of safety features, and is light (8.4 pounds, including canopy and seat inserts). Other models that stand out are the Nuna PIPA URbN which was the winner of Gold in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards for Best Car Seat Group 0/0+, thanks to its high-end extras such as the Dream drape and full-coverage UPF 50+ canopy.

The base and seat design must also be taken into consideration. For instance, some car seats use a special base that is secured to the buckles on the seat belts and others use steel-reinforced LATCH connectors which flip out from the sides of the base and turn green when attached correctly. These were useful for parents, particularly if the vehicle only had front-facing seat belts.

Some infant car seats can be used with a standard seatbelt, but without the base, which is a bonus for parents who often use taxis or travel with their baby. The Nuna TODL NEXT was a top pick among our parents who tested it. It can be used either with or without the base, and features an easy swivel that makes it easier to get your baby in and out.

Other important design considerations are whether the car seat is a lie flat design, and how well it will fit into your specific car (see our guide to car seat compatibility). If you are looking for a newborn car seat infant car seat that will expand with your child to become a booster seat, choose a model that features an adjustable backrest as well as side impact protection. Make sure that the baby car seat you pick is iSize compliant and also has the proper car seat attachment points in accordance with UK law.
