Products repeat the anatomical shape of the child, which allows him to comfortably fit in it. The fabric of the covers is hypoallergenic, wear-resistant, can be erased automatically.

The range includes both chair-cradles for newborns and infants, and chairs for more adult and independent children. Chairs, cradles can be used as a carrier or mounted on a stroller.

Advantages and disadvantages

The main advantage of the chairs of this brand is, of course, their safety and reliability. The best confirmation of this fact is that the company has a certificate of European standard.

Thanks to the five-pointed belts ensures maximum safety of the child during movement and in the event of a possible accident. The crash tests prove that even when hit, the child does not fly out of the chair (it is the lack of seat belts or their unreliability that causes serious injuries and deaths of young passengers in an accident - children just fly out through the windshield onto the road).

In this case, the belts do not constrain the movements of the child, and also have soft lining in places of contact with the body. This eliminates the discomfort and rubbing of the belt - kids do not want to "get out" of it.

The backs of products are made of orthopedic materials and correspond to the anatomy of the body of a small passenger. This means that even with frequent or long trips the back of the child will not get tired, the spine will not receive excessive loads. In addition, in almost all models, you can change the position of the back, including putting the baby to sleep on the way.

All models are equipped with soft head restraints, the height of which can be adjusted based on the parameters of the age and height of the passenger. Some devices (usually used for children in a large weight and age range) have adjustable seat width. This is extremely convenient because it makes the model truly universal and durable: there is no need to buy new devices every 6-8 months, because children grow and gain weight in certain periods of life very actively.

Plus is a removable cover, which is not afraid of frequent washes in the machine. Some products have a water-repellent coating, so if the child spills water or juice on the chair, it will not instantly become wet. The main thing is to immediately blot the liquid with a dry cloth or tissue.

It is noteworthy that the chairs can be installed along the way, and against the movement. The second option is safer. In this way, most of the chairs for infants are attached.However, as the adult grows up, the peanut wants to look out the window, it is important for him to see dad or mom sitting behind the wheel, therefore, chairs that are installed in the direction of travel get more demand. Optimally, if the user has the ability to choose the appropriate option.

Happy Baby car seat models have a stylish, attractive design. Thanks to the rounded shapes, the chair is easy to install, without clinging to the corners of the cabin parts, does not injure the child and those sitting nearby and just looks attractive.

Reviews

In general, parents note the high quality and reasonableness of each element of Happy Baby car seats. Users note the reliability of the design, softness of the seats, ease of installation.

However, certain product complaints still have. For example, the Mustang Isofix series, according to some users, is equipped with insufficiently long seat belts. To fasten an adult child, especially if he is dressed in outerwear, is very problematic.

In the Mustang and Boss models, they sometimes point out the inconvenience of the technology for changing the position of the backrest. Users say that the switch to change the position is too tight, it is inconvenient to twist.

Some mothers say that the inner mattress is not fixed, which is why it slips. Users are advised to give preference to fabric covers, because with a long ride in a chair with a cover of eco-leather (artificial leather), the child begins to sweat a lot.

Some users talk about the higher cost of brand products compared to some other car seats. However, it should be understood that devices of this security class cannot be cheap. In addition, if you compare models designed for long-term use (for example, Mustang Isofix, Mustang, Atlant), the cost of which starts from 8 000 rubles, and similar in quality products, designed for a year and a half (their cost starts from an average of 3 000 rubles), it turns out that the first to purchase is much more profitable.

The undoubted convenience of purchasing universal car seats is the absence of a problem associated with the need to dispose of used seats. If you purchase products intended for use within a year or two, then sooner or later you will have to think about where to store or to whom to give the used chairs.
