6 things to consider before buying an infant car seat

(Additional 2 factors are specially suggested when purchasing bassinet)

1. Safety: Choose according to the car seat regulations

An infant car seat is about keeping your baby safe while riding in the car. Most of the safety car seats have passed the European R44 safety standard. However, the latest car safety seat regulations is R129, and the regulations are more stringent than before. These include: children under 15 months old must use rear-facing car seat, the design of head rest and seat side wings should be strengthened to ensure that they pass the side impact test, and the "Isofix" should be adopted.

  R129 R44
R129標準更清晰簡單 使用小童的身高作為汽車安全座椅的使用標準 根據體重去分類使用標準
R129標準有更嚴格的「背向乘坐」要求 15個月以下的兒童必須使用背向乘車座椅 體重超過9kg (大約10個月大) 的兒童可以使用前向乘車座椅
R129標準要求進行更嚴格的測試 使用32個感應器通過前部、後部和側面碰撞測試 使用4個感應器通過前部和後部碰撞測試
R129標準安裝更容易,並且具有更高的兼容性 汽車座椅採用 Isofix 安裝和固定 汽車座椅可以使用安全帶或 Isofix 進行安裝和固定

2. Size: Choose according to your baby’s height

The latest EU standard for  car seats, R129, places strict limits on the baby's height. This is especially important if your baby is born prematurely or has a low birth weight. We need to ensure that the car seat is equipped with a wrapping and comfortable newborn insert to keep the newborn baby comfortable and safe when using the car seat.

3. Comfort: Choose a comfortable car seat

Soft, light and breathable make a car seat more comfortable. The additional high-grade inner padding further enhances the comfort of the car seat, allowing your baby to have a comfortable journey!

 

Car seat recommendation: Avova - high-grade lining, creating the most comfortable car seat for your baby.

4. Installation: Easy to install and clear instructions

As long as you are riding with your baby, you need to use a BB car seat. Therefore, ease of installation or use is an important factor to be considered when choosing a BB car seat. First, make sure the car seat fits your car. If you're not sure, measure the available space in the back of your car and then check the dimensions of the car seats. Most of the infant car seats come with an Isofix base. Generally, the installation is relatively simple.

 

⭐Car seat recommendation: Swandoo – clear instructions, greatly reduce misuse.

5. Daily maintenance: Easy to clean and maintain

Infant car seats get dirty very easily. Therefore, a car seat that is easy to clean and maintain is very important. Seat covers should be easily removable and machine washable, so that you can keep your car seat clean!

6. Price: Choose an affordable safety car seat

Generally, the price of infant car seats on the market ranges from HKD 2,000 to HKD 5,000. Generally speaking, the more you spend, the more features and quality materials you are likely to get. But no matter how much you spend, remember to choose an infant car seat that passed the  safety standards.

 

Car seat recommendation: Doona – multi-functional buggy and car seat

Additional factors to be considered when choosing bassinet

1. Compatibility: Can be used on buggy

Before purchasing a bassinet or car seat, you should make sure it can be used on the corresponding stroller. A compatible bassinet will allows you to easily remove it from the car for use.

 

But don’t worry, most strollers come with adapters. With the appropriate adapter, bassinet and infant car seats can be used perfectly.

2. Portability: Should not be too heavy

Some car seats are much heavier than others. The weight of the ISOFIX infant car seat with baby cannot exceed 33 kg. Therefore, if the car seat is too heavy, it will limit the weight of the baby that can be used. The bassinet needs to be carried out every day, so the weight is very important to the caregiver! And being too heavy can also trigger safety issues.
