Modern manufacturers of children's products are constantly improving their products using innovative technologies and the latest developments. One of these solutions is a car seat with wheels.
Specifications
The baby car seat on wheels is a unique product that can be used both as a regular chair for transporting a baby and as a stroller. Such an invention is very convenient, because during the trip, the baby can fall asleep, there is no need to wake him up - you can get the carrier and transform the car seat into a stroller with simple movements or fix the cradle on the wheelchair base.
Some models are transformed with just one hand movement, which will greatly simplify the process if only one parent is moving with the baby. Such options are very similar to transformers, since the part with wheels is not removable, but folds compactly behind the back of the product when it is used as a car seat.
A wheelchair can be made up of two elements: an infant car seat and a chassis. The walking block is small, so it can be conveniently transported in the trunk of a car. The cradle is fixed to the chassis thanks to a special system.
A car seat with wheels is great for air travel as it can be used as a seat on an airplane. Moreover, such systems for children are certified, so passing the safety control will not be a problem.
