The new Britax Römer Kidfix III S in Cosmos Black is a forward-facing highback booster that's packed with useful safety features and ergonomic designs that make it one of the most comfortable seats on the market. Suitable from 3.5 to 12 years of age (15 to 36 kgs), the Kidfix III S protects your little ones from head to hip and supports kids of all sizes as they grow throughout the years. The highly durable, easy-care materials ensure the seat remains in good condition for the entirety of its use, and make cleaning up day-to-day messes quick and simple.
Safety
The newest feature on the latest addition to the Kidfix family is the shock-absorbing foam XP Pad, which sits across your child's chest and around the vehicle's seat belt. The XP Pad helps to absorb up to 30% of energy in the event of a frontal collision while preventing your child's chin from rebounding off of their chest. The additional padding also helps to limit the jerking forward head movements that often occur in this type of accident, protecting your little one's delicate neck from further injury. Finally, the XP Pad cushions your vehicle's seat belt, limiting discomfort on the road and potential injury in the event of a collision.
The SecureGuard technology featured on the Kidfix III S is instrumental in protecting your child's abdominal area should you ever find yourself involved in a collision. SecureGuard works by adding an additional 4th point of contact instead of the standard 3 created by your vehicle's 3-point seat belt, resulting in higher dispersion of force across a wider surface area. SecureGuard also holds the seat belt in the optimum position to reduce the risk of injury, and has proven to reduce abdominal forces in the event of a frontal collision by as much as 35%!
The advanced Side Impact Cushioning Technology (SICT) is the best way to protect your child in the event of a side-on collision and works by providing an additional barrier between your child's seat and the door, reducing the amount of space between the two and helping to absorb energy and force before it reaches your little one. The SICT system is easy to use, simply pop it out from the top of your child's seat on the side closest to the door.
The adjustable headrest of the Britax Romer Kidfix III S is designed to suit children of all ages, even as they grow, and should be positioned just above your child's shoulders for optimum protection. It can be easily adjusted with just one hand, and keeps your child's head supported if they fall asleep, ensuring they are kept safe should they be sleeping when you encounter an accident.
Comfort
The seating area of the Kidfix III S is approximately 20% larger than similar models on the market, providing plenty of space for growth. The improved shape and additional padding makes for a comfortable seat even for older children, and the ergonomic design ensures a comfortable seating position for children of all sizes.
The backrest of the Kidfix III S is V-shaped, leaving plenty of room for your child's back and shoulders as they grow and develop. Additionally, the backrest of the seat automatically adjusts to the angle of your vehicle's seats, providing a more comfortable and natural position for your little one when on the road. Finally, the headrest is well padded so your child can nap or relax comfortably in their seat without straining their neck.
Additional Information
Spills and messes are inevitable when you're travelling with children. That's why the covers of your Britax Kidfix III S can be easily removed and are suitable for machine washing, so you can keep your seat looking fresh and new throughout its life.
The Kidfix III S can be installed into your vehicle in two ways: either with the ISOFIX connectors and your car's 3-point seat belt, or with the seat belt alone. If you are unsure whether your vehicle has ISOFIX anchorage points you can speak to your car dealership, check with Britax's Fit Finder, call us on 0117 986 8184, or send us an email. Our experienced team would be more than happy to discuss whether this seat is the right fit for your vehicle.
