What to Avoid
❌ Second-hand car seats
You can't verify the crash history or if all parts are present. Safety standards change, so older seats may not meet current requirements.
❌ Car seats without proper installation
Even the safest car seat is useless if not installed correctly. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions or get professional help.
❌ Expired or damaged car seats
Car seats have expiration dates (usually 6-10 years). Check the label and never use a seat that's been in an accident.
