The Evenflo brand has long been best known for its baby care products, but has increasingly become noted by parents for its line of affordable but high-quality baby car seats.
There are two lines of Evenflo infant car seats – the Discovery and the Embrace. Both lines feature rear-facing seats for babies weighing between five to twenty-two pounds.
The basic features of the Evenflo infant car seat include liners made of expanded polystyrene designed to absorb impacts while providing comfort for babies, a five-point harness with one step adjuster to ensure proper fit, Evenflo’s exclusive CarryRight Z-shaped handle which adjusts to four different positions for more comfortable carrying, a convenient Stay-in-Car base and removable pads for easy washing.
To alleviate parents’ concerns about safety, Evenflo certifies that its car seats meet or exceed federal safety standards and are side impact tested. Side impact testing is particularly important in ensuring the safety of baby car seats, since 25% of vehicular accidents involve side impact collisions.
At present there are no provisions in US and Canadian standards for side impact testing but Evenflo has taken the initiative in this area, implementing a rigorous test protocol developed by its engineers. Further underlining the company’s determination to ensure the safety of its products, Evenflo last February implemented a voluntary recall of certain models of its Discovery car seat after lab tests showed that they could detach from their bases in the event of a high-impact side collision.
Evenflo also provided current owners of the seat with a free supplemental dual-hook fastener to remedy the problem. Additional features available with the Embrace 5 line include a separate canopy, a three-position adjustable base with easy-to-use adjuster and a Central Track Ball Angle Indicator to ensure the seat is at the proper angle and a belt guide for use without the base. In addition, the deluxe model comes with a removable body pillow.
