Five Point Harness System
When choosing a car seat for your newborn child, it is important to choose one with a simple, five-point harness system. This system can be adjusted for use with newborn infants or for children of up to 40 pounds.
The five points of the harness system are two shoulder straps, two upper hip straps and a crotch strap. When purchasing a convertible car seat, its five-point harnass system will adjust to fit children of all sizes. You will notice that the points that are strapped in are the strongest areas of the body.
