I was at a baby shower yesterday and was asked a lot of questions about infant seats. Questions about which infant seat is the safest and if there were any new to the market? It’s been 2 years since I last used an infant seat and a lot has changed, however, I recently learned that Maxi-Cosi, has re-designed the Maxi-Cosi Micro AP infant seat using patented Air Protect® technology.
How Air Protect Works: Through the precise release of air, Air Protect compresses and shields children from side impact intrusion and immediately reduces crash forces where the child is most vulnerable-the head. Air Protect does this by extending ride-down, the amount of time it takes to slow a child’s movement in a crash. By extending ride-down time, Air Protect creates a slower, softer landing.
Other differences include:
- Revised base release handle located on shell
- Upgraded soft goods
- Flip-out canopy visor for extra UV protection
Not only does the Micro AP come in a variety of fun, bright, and amazing colors like Passionate Pink, it is also light-weight at 8.6 pounds. The Micro AP infant seat is rear-facing and can be used from birth to 12 months. Click the links to find out more about the Maxi-Cosi Micro AP or where to buy!
