DUALTECH™ fabric:

Both the foam and dual knit fabric are fire retardant free to keep baby safe inside and out. These fabrics are specially woven and designed to eliminate the need for any additional treatment. 

Highlights
  • Included base with load leg for additional stability + energy absorption
  • Infinite adjustable headrest for improved side impact protection
  • Extra-large UPF 25+ hideaway canopy for increased sun protection
  • SMARTSecure® System with red-to-green visual indicator installs in seconds
  • Direct attachment for VISTA® and CRUZ® strollers

Protection from all sides

The adjustable headrest is reinforced with EPP foam to help absorb energy while the integrated design of our Side Impact Protection keeps baby’s head protected during a collision. Additionally, the 4th rebound carry handle position allows for increased safety and aids in absorbing rebound forces.

Included base with load leg

The MESA MAX base includes an adjustable load leg that adds stability and increases overall safety. It also helps to limit forward rotation during a front collision and reduce the chance of a head or neck injury.

Features

The MESA MAX can be installed in a matter of seconds! We make installation quick and simple for you by combining our SMARTSecure® system, auto-retracting LATCH design, bubble level indicators, and red to green visual indicators. The base is also designed with a four-position adjustable foot for easy leveling during installation.

The anti-rebound+ panel provides increased safety and protection by limiting the rotation and movement of the car seat in the event of a rear-impact collision.

The infinite adjustable headrest allows for a more accurate and customized fit as baby grows. Plus, our simple one-crotch buckle position and no-rethread, adjustable harness makes buckling up a breeze.

The robust, removable infant insert is designed to provide better fit and body positioning for babies approximately 4–11 lbs.

The MESA MAX is made with both fabric and foam that is free from all fire-retardant chemicals for all fashions, including the large UPF 25+ hideaway canopy. It is also GREENGUARD® GOLD Certified to support healthier air quality and low chemical emissions.

European Routing provides a safe and secure carrier-only installation when the use of a base isn’t convenient. The belt path easily secures the carrier at three points of contact to reduce movement.

A quick press of the button on the top of the carrier handle releases it from the frame so you can go from stroller to car in one seamless motion. Additionally, the convenient, reversible option allows baby to face you while strolling, or you can turn the carrier to pull right up to a table for mealtime.
