Is it necessary to buy a child safety seat in a car?

It is very necessary to buy a safety seat for your baby, because the law stipulates that you cannot take your baby in the car without a safety seat installed. If someone is against installing a safety seat, they have no safety awareness, and some safety seats may contain formaldehyde, which may make parents very worried.

Parents are worried about the material of the safety seat. As long as they buy one with guaranteed quality and passed various tests, they don’t have to worry. Parents must realize the importance of using safety seats. If an accident occurs and two cars collide, if the baby is held in the arms of the parents, the baby may be thrown out, which is very dangerous.

There is another more serious situation, that is, parents let the baby sit in the front passenger seat, which is even more dangerous and undesirable. The baby is short, and if he suffers a major traffic accident, the airbag will pop out and cause the child to suffocate.

In order to ensure the usability of the baby safety seat, parents should choose a suitable seat or a heightened cushion according to the size and height of the baby. They should not choose larger products just to extend the life of the safety seat, as this unsafe practice may even cause harm to the baby.

Child Safety Seat Buying Guide

First, choose according to the specific age and weight of the child. Children under one year old and weighing less than 10 kg should choose a cradle-type rear-facing safety seat; children aged one to three years old weighing 10-20 kg should choose a fully covered safety seat; children aged three to ten years old weighing 15 to 36 kg should choose an enclosed safety seat.

Second, the material of the safety seat. High-quality safety seats are made of solid materials and sophisticated workmanship. The backrest is mainly made of EPS material, not foam material, which has good shock resistance. The inner layer of the seat fabric is preferably polyester fiber cotton that has been flame-retardant treated.

Third, the safety seat fixing method. Currently, there are three ways to fix safety seats: European standard ISOFIX, American standard LATCH and seat belt fixing method. Although these three fixing methods are all safe, the seat belt fixing method is more complicated and may increase the risk.

Fourth, the safety seat should match the vehicle model. Before purchasing, you need to understand what type of mounting system the vehicle uses, as well as the number and location of anchor points in the vehicle. The child safety seat you buy should match the mounting system in the vehicle.

Expert advice: Through observation of many users' children, we know that the size of the child safety seat and the child's reminder are the most important issues we should consider when purchasing a child safety seat. We must not deliberately purchase a larger child safety seat product because the safety seat is too tight and the child is uncomfortable. Perhaps a small negligence on our part may lead to an irreversible disaster. Secondly, child safety seats are not static. We must also adjust and re-purchase new child safety seats in a timely manner according to the child's development.
