Summary:The only infant seat offered under the Mia Moda name.
The Mia Moda Certo is part of the car seat
test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, infant car seat
models like the Certo are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below.
Crash protection:
We hired a contract lab to perform crash tests to the government standards as dictated by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213. Crash tests simulate a head-on 30-mph crash with a 22-pound instrumented test dummy representing an average-sized 12-month-old child.
Ease of use:
Includes the clarity of instructions, installing the seat, adjusting harness positions, placing a child in the seat, securing the harness, and removing the child.
Fit to vehicle LATCH:
A rating of how easy it is to securely and correctly install each seat using the LATCH system in a variety of vehicles and how well the seats fit each vehicle once installed.
