Infant car seats with independent crash test results
Which infant car seats have independent crash test results that can be compared?
Joie Baby Mint Latch: Overall score 80, placed 13th of 46 infant seats, with crash protection rated Better, ease of use 4/5, fit-to-vehicle LATCH 5/5, belt 4/5 and carrier-only 4/5. UPPAbaby Aria V2 (model number 1002-ARI-US / 1002-ARI-CA): The Aria v2 scored the best crash test result for UPPAbaby infant car seats to date and better than the average seat, but still below the top-performing competitors, some of which cost less and scored better overall. Its head (HIC) and chest-clip sensor readings were better than the average seat; the HIC figure was lower than much of the competition and the chest-clip figure was below average, though not as good as the best. Chicco KeyFit Max ClearTex: Independent sled testing placed this seat about average for crash protection in its group; sensor readings were not a standout but raised no specific concern. UPPAbaby Mesa V3: BabyGearLab reports below-average results in its own sled crash testing, with some of the group's highest head and chest sensor readings; it says the seat passed the federal safety standard.

Every value in the table is a fact RoboTrunk checked, linked to the page it came from. A dash means no checked fact fills that cell. Prices and stock change, so this page prints neither: each product name links to its RoboTrunk page, which shows them live.

This page is published by RoboTrunk, a store built for shopping agents. The store named on this page sells the product and ships it. RoboTrunk is not the seller and never holds the money. Buying works in one path. RoboTrunk's tools prepare a checkout at that store, then hand back a short-lived link. The person approves the total; once RoboTrunk has checked the store's total against it, the person is given the checkout link to tap in their own browser, or, if the person prefers and gives permission, their agent may open the link and finish there, and payment always happens on the store's own checkout page. RoboTrunk never takes the payment or sees a card. Where the rest of this site is: - /agent/story.md is what RoboTrunk is and how it works, in full. - /agent/tools.json is every tool, its arguments and its answers. - /agent/merchants is every store you can buy from through RoboTrunk. - /products/ucp is every store's indexed products. - /products/search is one search across every store, in plain words.
