Roosevelt Pediatric Car Seat with Head Support is an excellent option for the safety and comfort of children with special health care needs. The Roosevelt car seat features European-style harness routing for abdominal comfort. The Roosevelt Car Seat offers a weight range of 35 to 115 lbs and a height range of 33.5" - 62". Seat extenders with padding provide the ideal seat depth for each leg, and the seat is 30" tall from bottom to top.
Merritt Manufacturing's Roosevelt Car Seat is the first large medical seat to address this issue, featuring a crash-tested design that is especially beneficial to children with low muscle tone. Many children with neuromuscular diseases have decreased neck control, which causes their heads to "fall" forward. This causes distress for many of these children.
The "EZ-Up" headrest uses velcro to attach a cap (worn by the occupant) to Roosevelt's headrest. The device is designed to maintain the occupant's head straight while avoiding excessive reclining. The Roosevelt's standard seat depth (without an extension) is 12.5", measuring from the back of the buttocks to the back of the knee.
Roosevelt Special Needs Car Seat Comes Standard With:
- Tilt bar
- Head rest
- Neck pads
- Locking clip
- Fabric cover
- Two lateral pads
- Two tether assemblies
- EZ-tether connector strap
- 12.5" Standard Seat Depth
