Besafe Stretch Dark Grey

Product Overview The BeSafe Stretch² is designed for parents who want to keep their child rear-facing for longer. Suitable from 61-125cm and up to 36kg, it provides extended rear-facing travel from approximately 6 months through to around 7 years, adapting as your child grows with generous legroom, multiple recline settings and an adjustable headrest. BeSafe confirms the approximate 6-month to 7-year usage period and 36kg maximum weight. Unlike an ISOFIX car seat, the Stretch² installs using the vehicle's three-point seat belt, giving families greater flexibility when choosing a suitable seating position in the car. Its automatic retracting lower tethers and integrated lock-off and tensioning system are designed to make secure installation more straightforward. Safety is central to the design. The external frame and rigid seat construction are designed to manage forces in a frontal collision, while Dynamic Force Absorber™ headrest technology and removable SIP+ side-impact protection provide additional protection around the child. The Stretch² has also passed the Swedish Plus Test and is approved to UN R129, providing additional reassurance for parents choosing an extended rear-facing seat. Swedish Plus Test approval is also confirmed by BeSafe Comfort hasn't been overlooked either. Children get up to 26cm of adjustable legroom, five recline positions and a spacious seat shell, while the Ergo Cushion™ provides additional lumbar support as they grow. BeSafe confirms that the Ergo Cushion™ is certified as back-friendly by AGR. Why Parents Love It Extended rear-facing up to approximately 7 years – suitable from 61-125cm and up to 36kg, extending the period your child can travel rear-facing. No ISOFIX required – vehicle seat belt installation provides greater flexibility when finding a suitable installation position. Up to 26cm of legroom – gives growing legs extra space without having to move your child forward-facing simply because they're getting taller. Swedish Plus Test approved – independently tested beyond the regulatory approval requirements. Designed to grow with your child – adjustable headrest, recline positions, Ergo Cushion™ and To-Fit Cushions™ help accommodate children across several years of use. The Stretch² uses a distinctive external safety frame combined with an extra-rigid seat structure and energy-absorbing materials. During a frontal impact, the structure is designed to help manage the forces acting on the seat and child. Protection is complemented by BeSafe's Dynamic Force Absorber™ headrest and removable SIP+ side-impact protection. The seat is approved to UN R129 and has passed the demanding Swedish Plus Test. BeSafe itself confirms the Stretch²'s Swedish Plus Test approval Flexible Belt Installation The Stretch² doesn't rely on ISOFIX. Instead, it installs using the vehicle's three-point seat belt, making it a useful option for families who require more flexibility around where their child seat can be fitted. Automatic retracting lower tethers help simplify installation, while the integrated lock-off and tensioning mechanism helps achieve a secure fit. As with any seat belt-installed child seat, it's important to check suitability and correct installation for your individual vehicle before use. Growing Room Without Sacrificing Comfort Extended rear-facing doesn't mean children have to sit in one fixed position as they grow. The Stretch² provides up to 26cm of adjustable legroom, helping accommodate increasingly long legs through the different stages of use. BeSafe specifically highlights this 26cm leg space as one of the features that allows the seat to accommodate older children. There are also five recline positions. BeSafe states that the recline angle can be changed without reinstalling the seat, making it possible to adjust the child's seating position between more upright and reclined settings Added Support as Children Grow The new Ergo Cushion™ provides additional lumbar support for growing children. It's designed to support the natural curve of the back and has received AGR back-friendly certification The 10-position adjustable headrest allows the seat to adapt to your child's height, while the included To-Fit Cushions™ provide additional support and allow you to tailor the seating area for younger children. Magnetic Belt Assistants™ help hold the harness straps out of the way while you're getting your child in or out of the seat, a small detail that can make everyday school-run and childcare journeys easier.
