A fairly advanced model of a child car seat with reinforced side protection and an anatomical pillow. First of all, let's pay attention to the fact that the model is universal and suitable for transporting children of 1,2 and 3 weight groups — that is, from 8 months of age and up to 12 years. The model does not take up much space in the car, but it is easy and secure to install using classic seat belts.
Compared to many competitors on the market, it has a more spacious seat — in winter clothes, the child will not be cramped in it. With the help of a special handle, the back is deflected to a comfortable position if the baby falls asleep. The headrest is also adjustable, the head of the child does not hang out in it. The seat belts of the RECARO Young Sport Hero do not loosen, do not press, do not twist, fix the child securely, without restricting his movements. The Alcantara upholstery is easily removed and can be washed without losing its presentable appearance. The weight of the chair is acceptable — just over 8 kg, but there is also a special carrying handle.
Always clarify the specifications and configuration of the product with the online store manager before purchasing.

The German company Recaro is one of the world leaders in the production of child car seats. The brand's products take consistently high places in all kinds of crash tests and cost quite adequate money, which is why it is a success with many young parents.
Once and for all
The Young Sport Hero model is subject to "registration" in the car for a long time. The fact is that the chair is suitable for children from small to large — in its seat both a 9-month-old baby and a 12-year-old passenger up to 145 cm tall can comfortably fit. The key to a comfortable fit is a spacious seat, coupled with a height-adjustable headrest (5 positions) — a child can easily fit into it even in a warm winter down jacket.
Reliable fixation
The smallest children are securely held in the car seat by five-point seat belts that can be adjusted in height along with the headrest. Starting from the age of three, the passenger is replaced by car seat belts, through which the seat is also fixed in the back seat of the "iron horse". The only complaint about the chair's own seat belts is the complicated fastening of a child in the autumn-winter season.
Under the umbrella of security
RECARO Young Sport Hero gets special praise for the reinforced sidewalls that protect the child from injury during side impacts. Removable Alcantara upholstery, which can be machine washed on a delicate cycle at 30°C without subsequent spinning, helps to keep the chair in a presentable form. As part of the crash test according to the ADAC methodology in 2015, the model earned a final rating of “satisfactory”. A couple of points were knocked off for her bulky size, limited visibility for a child and insufficient stability. In matters of safety, the chair has shown itself in a positive way, so you can recommend it for purchase without the slightest twinge of conscience.
1. Installation is straightforward; the only thing is that you need to place something under the chair, in our case, an old blanket, otherwise the seat slightly sags.
2. The frame is sturdy, side protection is adequate; in terms of safety, everything seems to be fine.
3. The seating is comfortable, the child sits calmly in the chair, and there is an additional soft cushion under the seat. However, there is one downside—the chair is a bit tight if the child is wearing a jacket, even a mid-season one. So we always take it off before seating.
4. The straps are strong and secure, but the buckle itself is inconvenient; you need to get used to it to fasten quickly. Also, the strap tongue is short and constantly gets stuck under the lock, which is annoying.
5. It's ideal to place the chair in the center of the back seat, but since it is wide, even in a Toyota RAV4, not exactly a narrow car, we had to put it behind the passenger. When installed in the center, it was impossible to sit on the sides at all.
6. On the positive side, the covers are removable, the color is non-marking, and they can be easily removed and washed.
Overall, it's a decent chair for its money, with some drawbacks, but not critical.
