Choosing your Next Stage Axkid Car Seat

Key Considerations When Choosing Your Next Stage Car Seat

When it’s time to move up to the next stage car seat, there are several important factors to consider to ensure your child’s safety and comfort. With a wide range of options available, Axkid is here to help you navigate the key points to consider during your buying process. Seeking expert advice is crucial to making the right choice, and understanding these factors will guide you toward the best decision for your family.

1. Understanding Your Child’s Percentile

One of the most critical considerations is understanding your child's growth percentile. This information helps predict when your child will reach certain height and weight limits imposed by car seats. By knowing your child’s percentile, you can choose a seat that will accommodate their growth, ensuring they remain safe and secure for as long as possible.

2. Ease of Moving the Seat Between Vehicles

Another important factor is whether the car seat will need to be moved between vehicles. Proper installation is key to car seat safety, so if you plan to transfer the seat regularly, this should influence your choice. Axkid car seats are designed with user-friendly features that make installation straightforward and secure, even when moving the seat between different cars.

3. The Importance of Extended Rear-Facing

At Axkid, we strongly recommend keeping children rear-facing for as long as possible. Rear-facing car seats provide superior protection for a child’s head, neck, and spine in the event of a collision. We offer a range of rear-facing seats to suit different needs, ensuring that your child can travel safely and comfortably.

Before You Buy: Axkid’s Recommendations

• Check Your Child’s Percentile: Knowing your child’s height and weight percentile is crucial. This information will help you choose a seat that fits their growth pattern, ensuring longevity and safety.

• Consider a 25kg Rear-Facing Seat: If your child is above the 50th percentile for weight or height, a rear-facing seat that supports up to 25kg is the most economical and safest option. Axkid’s range ensures your child can remain rear-facing for as long as possible before transitioning to a high-back booster.
