UPPAbaby Knox Convertible Car Seat for Kids/Rear & Forward Facing/Safety Features/CleanTech Technology/Jake (Charcoal)

The Knox Smart Secure system is designed with safety in mind, featuring an indicator window that transitions from red to green, signaling when the seat is correctly installed. With advanced energy response technology and a multi-directional tether, the Knox offers exceptional performance and safety for young passengers. Notably, the Knox is the first child restraint to integrate Koroyd technology, engineered to absorb maximum energy during an impact.

This convertible car seat caters to children from approximately 1 to 6 years of age. For those using the infant insert, it supports weights between 14 to 25 pounds. In rear-facing mode, it accommodates weights ranging from 14 to 45 pounds, while forward-facing mode is suitable for children weighing between 25 and 65 pounds, with a height limit of up to 49 inches. According to FMVSS 213 standards, the seat supports a minimum and maximum child weight of 14 to 65 pounds.

In terms of seat dimensions, the lowest position of the seat measures 10 inches from the seat bight to the inner edge of the harness slot, reaching 19 inches to the top of the headrest. When adjusted to the highest setting, the harness slot is 17.5 inches above the seat bight, and the headrest rises to 26 inches.

The Knox Convertible Car Seat is engineered to adapt as your child grows, featuring rear-facing capabilities for children weighing 14 to 45 pounds and forward-facing options for those ranging from 25 to 65 pounds. The innovative no-rethread harness, an adjustable 8-position headrest, and a 4-position recline ensure a perfect fit throughout your child’s development.

Safety features are visually accessible with our unique SmartSecure system. This technology includes a tightness indicator and sturdy tension clips that serve as a visual guide for proper installation. The color-coded seatbelt paths simplify the process, making it easy for parents and caregivers to install the car seat correctly.

For those seeking a chemical-free option, the Knox boasts SafeTech and PureTech fabrics, as well as fire-retardant foam, all free from harmful chemicals. The car seat’s Jordan and Gregory fashions incorporate Merino Wool, which helps regulate temperature, keeping children cool on hot days and warm during cooler weather.

To enhance safety further, the multi-directional tether plays a critical role by minimizing seat rotation and alleviating stress on the head and neck in the event of an impact. Its use is strongly recommended for both rear and forward-facing installations, as research indicates that the tether can potentially reduce injury risk by as much as 45% when the seat is rear-facing.

Finally, Knox's Energy Response Technology consists of a suite of innovative safety features designed to provide unparalleled side impact protection. This includes an Active Support Headrest, Side Impact Pods, and an Impact Dispersion Zone filled with specialized EPP foam, ensuring your child’s safety on the road.
