ADAC test result

The results shown by the seat in crash tests according to the standards of ADAC — the General German Automobile Club, an authoritative European organization of motorists.

Car seats in such tests are evaluated in several categories, but in this point only one parameter is taken into account — the safety of the child, his/her protection in emergency situations. The results of such a test are indicated by the number of points; the fewer points in the end — the safer the product. It should be noted that the ADAC standards are much stricter than those by which the seat is evaluated during mandatory certification; tests are conducted with different directions of impacts (frontal and side), with dummies of different ages and so on. Therefore, the result of the ADAC test very reliably describes the real level of protection that the product provides in accidents.

According to this indicator, modern car seats can be divided into the following categories:

very good (< 1.5);
good (1.6 – 2.5);
satisfactory (2.6 – 3.5);
acceptable (3.6 – 4.5);
— unacceptable (more than 4.5).

The downside of a good value is usually a higher price; however, in an accident, that price may be a very small price to pay for the extra protection that can save your baby's life and health.

In c...onclusion, it should be noted that ADAC test methods are constantly being improved and tests are conducted every year. Therefore, when choosing a seat and comparing it with its counterparts, you should also pay attention to the year of manufacture; as a rule, newer products with the same number of points give a higher actual level of protection than older ones.

Material

Polyester. Polyester is a synthetic fabric made from polyester fibers. The car seats with polyester upholstery have a pleasant to the touch surface. The material itself is not hygroscopic and is not subject to bacterial contamination. It is sufficiently resistant to mechanical stress and does not fade in the sun.

Microfiber. Microfiber is made from polyamides. The main feature of microfiber is the unique structure of the fabric. This material consists of numerous micropores, which explains the good ventilation of microfiber. Microfiber-based coverings have a pleasant tactile sensation. The material belongs to the category of well ventilated and breathable. Despite its synthetic origin, microfiber absorbs moisture well, but is easy to wash and dries quickly.

— Alcantara. The car seat with alcantara has an attractive appearance and excellent performance. Alcantara is an artificial suede leather, it is a very durable and practical material. It is easy to clean, does not absorb moisture and does not require any special maintenance. Alcantara is made from a mix of polyester and polyurethane fibers, as a result of complex chemical processing. It is considered one of the most prestigious materials.

Eco-leather. Car seats with eco-leather coverings are characterized by high practicality, reliability and durability. This material has hi...gh wear resistance and is absolutely hypoallergenic. An important difference between eco-leather and genuine one is the thickness of the material — eco-leather is noticeably thicker, but thanks to this it has higher and strength characteristics. However, it is impossible to distinguish a good expensive eco-leather from a natural one at a glance.

Leather. Genuine leather upholstery is characteristic of premium car seats for kids. This material looks prestigious and solid, while possessing the highest durability and wear resistance. The natural origin of the leather excludes the appearance of the child any allergic reactions to the seat. Also genuine leather is valued for the fineness of dressing, provided that the material retains high durability characteristics. In addition, it is able to absorb moisture.

Suede. The suede covering will make your child feel comfortable and cozy. Like genuine leather, suede has good durability. This material has waterproof properties and does not require any special maintenance. Suede is obtained by chemical processing of genuine leather with subsequent tanning.

Country of origin

The country of origin of the brand under which the product is marketed. Often indicated by the nationality of the company or the location of its headquarters. At the same time, the actual production capacity of the brand often differs from the country of origin.

The quality of products is more influenced by the organization of processes and quality control at all production stages than by geography. Therefore, biases against brands from specific regions are generally unfounded. Consideration of a brand's country of origin becomes relevant only when the goal is to actively support or avoid manufacturers from a particular state.
