Choosing a car seat for a child is one of the most important decisions parents make. Recent years have brought quite a few changes in safety standards, with I-Size approval playing a key role. What is i-Size, what standards does it introduce, and why is it so important when choosing a car seat? Let's take a look at it in today's article.
I-Size approval - the new safety standard
I-Size, also known as the R129 standard, is a European safety standard introduced in 2013. It differs from previous standards in that it emphasizes the child's height rather than weight, making it easier to choose the right car seat. I-Size introduces more advanced crash tests, including side impact tests, and requires children to travel in the rear-facing position until at least 15 months of age, which is much safer for the youngest.
Practical application of the I-Size standard
When we talk about specifics, it's best to illustrate them with examples. The MoMi URSO car seat brilliantly demonstrates how I-Size standards are applied in practice. Compliant with the I-Size standard, it offers the maximum level of safety. It has ISOFIX and TOP TETHER fastening systems, ensuring that the seat is stable and securely fastened to the car. ISOFIX allows the seat to be firmly and securely attached to special attachments in the car. As a result, the seat is more stable and better protects the child in case of a crash. Additionally, the TOP TETHER system in the MoMi URSO car seat offers additional security in the form of a strap that attaches to an anchor point located in the car, usually behind the rear seat. The TOP TETHER strap restricts the forward movement of the seat in the event of a crash, further increasing the safety of the child. The MoMi URSO seat can be mounted both rearward and forward-facing, allowing for long-lasting and safe use, tailored to the height of the toddler, from 40 to 150 cm tall.
Safety and comfort
The MoMi URSO is equipped with 5-point seat belts, in accordance with the I-Size standard. It also has a 10-position headrest adjustment, ensuring comfort and safety for your growing child. Additional features, such as a deep headrest and the ability to adjust the angle of the backrest, add to the comfort of any toddler.
Why is it so important to choose an I-Size car seat?
By choosing an I-Size compliant car seat, parents ensure the highest possible level of safety for their child. This standard emphasizes the protection of the child's head and neck, which is crucial for younger passengers. In addition, the ISOFIX attachment system increases the likelihood that the seat will fit correctly, which is equally important for safety.
I-Size guarantees safe travel
The I-Size standard introduced new requirements for car seat safety, emphasizing the protection of the youngest children. The MoMi URSO car seat is a great example of the application of these standards in practice, combining safety with comfort. By choosing an I-Size compliant car seat, parents are assured that they are providing their child with the best possible protection while traveling in the car."
