When buying a next seat (the best child seats in Group 1 at a glance *), there are a few things to consider.
Because with increasing age, children's bodies differ more and more.
Not every seat fits every child.
You should therefore pay attention to the points listed below.
This is the only way to
guarantee
the
safety of your child
.
You should also think about whether the child seat fits in your car.
If it is attached to the vehicle using Isofix, for example, you should ensure that your car has a suitable device.

Buying a child seat: what you should consider
The most important thing to ensure the child's safety is the
size of the seat
.
This is not measured by the height of the child, but by weight.
Group 2/3 applies to a weight of 15 to 36 kilograms.
That corresponds roughly to an age of three and a half to twelve years.
The compulsory car seat for children ends at twelve.
Not every seat fits in every car
.
To avoid bad purchases, you should consult the recommendation of your vehicle manufacturer.
Or you can rely on the help of a professional and seek advice from a specialist dealer.
They can also carry out an installation test with you to ensure that the seat fits and is installed correctly.
Not every seat fits the stature of your child
.
The child seat not only has to fit into your car, but above all to your child.
From a certain age, children's bodies differ greatly.
Some are narrower, wider, have particularly long legs or a tall torso.
It is important that the seat belt of your child goes over the pelvic bones and in no case over the abdomen.
Because then internal injuries could occur in an accident.
Your little one's head should be inside the side protection and not above or below it.
In addition, the belt must run over the collarbone.
Because here the body can absorb the force of an impact well.
