Why did we make BeSafe Stretch? 

Most parents say that they turn their children to forward facing when they are about 3–4 years. But did you know that the safest option is for children to stay sitting rear-facing for even longer?

Based on this evidence, we have done our utmost to create a car seat that delivers outstanding performance in crash tests, even for children up to 7 years. Consumer insights show that a big problem with rear-facing seats is that children grow out of their seat due to their weight before they reach 125 cm. That’s why we set ourselves an ambitious goal that Stretch should be able to bear a weight of 36 kg while still having enough legroom for older children. No other car seat manufacturer has ever managed this. We've been making car seats since 1963 and now, we've used the experience from all these years in the development of Stretch.
