Delivering the very highest standard in world class safety & design, columbus™ provides superior head, neck and all over body protection for your child, due to its first ever standardised side impact testing.
The next coolest thing about columbus™ is that it’s not cumbersome; so when not in use, this 5.9kg booster seat can easily fold down to briefcase size to cleverly stow away – light & breezy, lemon squeezy!

**SAFETY NOTICE**
We recommend replacing any car seat that has been involved in a crash. Even if it looks fine, there could be internal damage that would make it unsafe. The seat has done its job by protecting your child and therefore needs replacing. Most insurance companies will cover this expense. To be sure, please request a police report on the accident.
R129 – a standard that's a cut above the rest!
columbus™ has passed the newest EU car seat safety standard in the world. This means columbus™ has been tested to the HIGHEST, TOUGHEST & NEWEST standards that will ensure maximum safety when on the road!
Being R129, means columbus™ is i-Size ready:
- it's all about the height of your kid – NOT weight or age;
- enforces rear-facing for much longer, at least until 15mths (check out our other rear facing, i-Size car seats alpha™ and evolution™);
- offers superior side impact and rotational protection;
- allows continual correct installation into the car AT ALL TIMES.
i-Size – when length DOES matter!
It’s all about the height of your kid NOT weight or age! Removing this ambiguity that can confuse the smartest parent (!), allows you to focus solely on measuring your kid against a measuring tape to see when to swap to the next age&stage car seat more easily, making for a better and safer fit for your kid.
i-Size – superior side protection!
columbus™ has gone through the NEWEST & THE MOST stringent side impact & rotational testing to ensure maximum protection in the event of a side collision. The seat also uses energy absorbing high impact EPP foam (not EPS). EPP while more expensive, is also much more flexible & less brittle than EPS, so it's less likely to crumble or break.
i-Size – security always with ISOFIX
columbus™ includes ISOFIX allowing you to properly install it into the rear seat of your car easily using the ISOFIX anchor points. note: If your car does not have ISOFIX anchor points, columbus™ is safe to use with the vehicle seat belt ONLY.
the perfect fit for your car!
columbus™ molds to your car easily! With the 4 seat recline levels, this allows the car seat to fit more snug into any vehicle seat back!
storage plus
A convenient&cute fold, that allows columbus™ to become pint size – ready to stow away neatly when not in use OR for easy transfer to other vehicles – even your kid can set it up!
injection molding
The form is on point with the injection molding of the car seat, allowing for precise & smooth use of columbus™.
handy bits&bobs
Also included are handy ISOFIX guides to help sync into your car!
save by keeping it within the family!
