What is the difference between SlimFit R44 and SlimFit R129?
There are currently 2 different car seat standards in the EU. R44 (legally known as ECE R44/04) car seats are divided into groups based on weight, with some covering multiple groups. Eventually, R44 car seats will no longer be available for purchase, but these seats are still safe to use. SlimFit R44 is based on these standards.  

 

SlimFit R129 meets the new R129 (legally known as ECE R129) standards. The main differences in these standards are that car seats are based on your child’s height, undergo more side impact testing, and ensure children sit rearward facing until they reach 15 months and 75cm. SlimFit R129 is based on these standards. In our car seat buying guide, you can learn more about car seat standards and help figure out which car seat is right for you.

 

How long should I keep my child rearward facing in the SlimFit R44 car seat?
We recommend keeping your child rearward facing as long as possible because, in case of impact, this seat position will better protect your child's head, neck and spine. For this reason, we advise rearward facing up to 4 years (18kg).

 

How many recline positions does the SlimFit R44 car seat have?
The SlimFit car seat has 4 total recline positions — 2 in rearward facing and 2 in forward facing. This means your child's head and neck will always be properly supported.

 

Can I machine wash SlimFit R44’s seat covers?
Yes, you can wash the covers in your washing machine with cold water only on the delicate cycle. Drip dry and do not use bleach.
