The company "Inglesina" for many years is one of the recognized world leaders in the production of goods for babies. Distinctive features of the brand's products are impeccable quality and expressive recognizable style. The company's specialists pay maximum attention to the high requirements for manufactured products, and a team of professional designers tries to give sophisticated features to each product.
Baby seats from this manufacturer are not yet represented as widely as, for example, strollers, but growing demand also stimulates supply growth. The topic of today's review is the Inglesina Marco Polo car seat, which has already gained a lot of fans.
This child car seat is installed on the car seat using the standard seat belts passed through the base. Reviews indicate that if everything is done correctly, the chair is fixed quite rigidly, does not stagger and does not hang out while riding. This is important not only to ensure the comfort of a small passenger, but also for its safety.
Seat
"Inglesina Polo" - a car seat, designed to carry children from birth. In order for the baby to be comfortable in the first months of life, a special insert for newborns is provided.
The soft comfortable seat is medium in size. Its width (inside) is 25 cm, the depth is 28 cm, and the height along the back is 53 cm. The chair weighs 9.3 kg.
The seat is very easy to fold out. In total there are 6 backrest tilt positions, including almost completely horizontal.
Security
Car seat "Inglesina Marco Polo" is equipped with a five-point system of seat belts that will securely fix the baby, as if inside a protective cocoon. The vertical shoulder straps have soft pads that can be removed if necessary. In height they can be adjusted in three positions. In the area of the armrests of the chair there are plastic hooks on which you can throw the belts during the boarding and disembarking of the child so that they do not interfere.
Car seat "Inglesina Marco Polo" certified in accordance with safety standard ECE R44 / 04. It has enhanced lateral protection in the form of large soft inserts in the area of the legs and head.
Accessories
The standard equipment includes only a large soft tab for the newborn, rounding the corner of the back. It is sewn from the same textile as the upholstery of the chair, and a foam insert is located on the underside. If necessary, it can be removed.
The handle for carrying the chair, cup holder and hood are not included in the package. But the car seat "Inglesina Marco Polo" can easily be carried with two hands. If desired, you can purchase branded summer textiles.
Fabrics and materials
The upholstery of the chair is sewn with high quality, the threads do not stick out, there are no rough edges. The slots for the harnesses of the seat belts are carefully heat-treated so that the sealed edges do not crumble. The material from which the upholstery is sewn is 100% polyester. Probably, it will soar in the heat, so the manufacturer recommends getting a replaceable set of summer textiles. This is especially true for children of the first year of life.
The inner surface of the lining on the belts has a rubberized base. This prevents them from slipping.
The cover sits on the car seat tightly, does not hang out. In order to remove it, it is necessary to unscrew the seat belt clips located on the side with a screwdriver. The cover with which the Inglesina Marco Polo car seat is equipped, if necessary, can be washed in warm water by hand or in an automatic machine with the Delicate Wash mode.
Installation
For children from birth to three months, the recommended mode of transportation is "facing the direction of movement." This is due to the fact that while the spine is just beginning to grow stronger and develop, sudden braking can be dangerous for the baby’s neck. To avoid injuries, do not put your baby face in the direction of the car. A chair in this position is very easy to install. It can carry children weighing up to 18 kg.
The "forward position" position is recommended for passengers weighing from 9 to 18 kg. Installing a chair in this position will take longer and may seem more complicated. All the nuances of installation are described in detail in the instructions (in Russian). Car seat "Inglesina Marco Polo" is attached very securely thanks to special clips and levers for tensioning the standard seat belts of the machine.
