Best travel products or systems: The BeSafe Stretch

Besafe

BeSafe is a family owned Norwegian company, dedicated to developing the safest possible car seats for children of all ages. Like a true Scandinavian brand, BeSafe prides itself on its innovation and design, with a spirit of adventure at the heart of everything they do. They enable families to travel at ease, with the knowledge their children are safely secured in the car.

BeSafe started producing quality car seats for children in 1963. Before this, the company had been producing horse saddles since 1919 and car interiors since 1959. From their humble beginnings over 100 years ago, they have always been at the forefront of development, changing with the times. That’s why they, among other things, adapt to their customers’ different and modern lifestyles with each and every seat they design.

BeSafe is especially known for being a rear facing-pioneer. In 1989, they produced their first rear-facing car seat, and at the same time told the world that children should face backwards in the car as long as possible. They were heavily criticised, even ridiculed by some, but today it’s a known fact that rear facing travel is five times safer than forward facing. BeSafe is proud to have taken such a critical stance early on, and they will keep working on spreading the word in the years to come.

The BeSafe Stretch

The first of its kind the Stretch is BeSafe’s safest seat yet, keeping children rear-facing up to 7 years without compromising on comfort. This seat is suitable from approx 6 months (61cm) to 7 years (125cm).

The Stretch has a new and innovative exo frame, the construction connects with the car belts and floor to bear the forces in the case of a frontal crash. The rigid seat shell spine transfers the child’s energy onto the exo frame, keeping the child in a stable position in an impact. The seat is belt mounted (no isofix) making it possible to install in any car and any seat, giving you maximum flexibility.

With 5 recline positions, a 10-step adjustable headrest and lots of space for growing legs this seat provides exceptional comfort. Magnetic belt assistants™ make getting in and out of the seat a breeze. With Two-Fit cushions™ for an individual adjustment to the child really makes this the seat that truly grows with your child.
