Safety and simplicity the stylish way

Clek manufacture deceptively simple car seats and boosters which are designed by seat experts so that they are effortless to install but still provide essential safety and comfort for little passengers. Clek seats have won the Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association’s (JPMA) Innovation Award for their unique booster seats which are LATCH equipped so they are extra stable and secure and stay in place even when your child is not sitting in them.

Clek understand that for a car seat to be safe, it must be properly fitted. The best feature of Clek’s seats is their astonishingly easy connection method; they literally click into place thanks to the LATCH connectors. The process is totally idiot-proof and the manufacturers’ claim that this can be done in 10 seconds is absolutely spot-on.

Clek manufacture three seats; the oobr, the olli and the ozzi. All these feature clean, cutting-edge designs which make them look and feel like an integral part of a vehicle rather than just attachments. The seats have Clek-jacket covers which can be purchased separately so they can be personalized to suit individual tastes. All three seats feature the comfort-cube base with superior padding to keep little bottoms comfortable on even the longest of journeys. The seats have soft-touch armrests and incorporate belt-guides for optimum seat-belt positioning around your child’s body.

The Oobr is Clek’s newest model and is a full-backed booster car seat. It is designed to look like a top-of-the-range coach or bus seat and is suitable for kids between the weights of 33 and 100 pounds. It can be used as a back-less booster once a child reaches above 40 pounds. As well as the standard Clek features described above, the oobr incorporates Clek’s Elementary Safety System which involves having a magnesium back support with additional side protection and energy-absorbing foam. It also has an adjustable head restraint for extra protection and snooze-a-ability. With its reclining seat upholstered in a washable-removable Crypton-Super-fabric which is stain and mold resistant, the oobr is definitely the Rolls-Royce of the Clek collection. Unfortunately, this seat is still not widely available and retail process are still unknown, so watch this space.

The Ozzi booster is suitable for kids between 40 and 120 pounds. Upholstered in a removable plush fabric, it is a backless booster which is lightweight and portable. The Clek Olli model is one step up from the Ozzi with its handy carry-strap for super portability and its convenient storage pouch. It is also available in a wider range of fresh colors and eye-catching patterns; truly a delight to behold. Some people are bothered by the lack of head protection or side-impact protection for younger kids but rest assured, the boosters meet all relevant safety criteria.

Clek booster seats retail at prices between $70 and $90 which is certainly a bit hefty for simple boosters. The style-conscious find these prices easier to swallow as the snob appeal of these seats is definitely top-of-the-range. The simplicity of installation simply cannot be beaten by any seat on the market, so, if you shy away from installing things, these are definitely the seats for you.
