Sunshine Kids and Car Seat Safety

Chances are you'll never get into an accident. If you do it will probably be minor and your child may not even be in the car. So how important is your car seat? The uncomfortable truth is that bad accidents can happen to anyone at any time. And they do. All car seats are designed for accidents. But only one has a steel frame, designed and tested for the worst, possible accident conditions. Radian80/XT is the strongest car seat in the world and built that way for a reason. A car seat is like an insurance policy. What coverage do you want for your child?

Safety

• Radian80/XT has the highest rated capacity of any convertible car seat.
• Radian80/XT has the highest un-tethered capacity of any harnessed car seat. Period. (Strong enough to not 'require' top tether, even at 80 lbs.)
• Radian80/XT meets all crash test performance standards even at 80 lbs, with and without top tether, even though above 50 lbs, bio-mechanical performance standards aren't required.
• Radian80/XT was successfully NCAP tested at 85 lbs, with its 5-point harness and no top tether. (This is important. This is worst case. And no other car seat can do it. Not even close.)

New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) is 35 mph crash testing used to determine a vehicle's safety. NCAP testing has been required for all cars since 1981, but is not required for child car seats. NCAP simulates a severe accident - almost double the impact forces of a standard crash test. Many safety advocates believe NCAP should be a required, 'fail-safe' test for all child car seats.

Security

• Radian is the only car seat with a steel frame, and it's designed that way for a reason.
• Radian isn't crash tested to an extreme, it's crash tested smart.
• Radian isn't over-built, it's properly built.
• Radian provides a level of safety we hope a child never needs, but could.

If all this makes you nervous, it shouldn't. We already worried about "What if…", so you don't have to.
