After a relaxing appointment at the nail salon for a fresh coat of shellac, the last thing you want to do is chip the nail art while unbuckling the baby from the car seat. Pushing that red button takes four-to-six kilograms of pinpoint pressure. It can be a challenge for people with long nails or arthritis.
That was a complaint Kristin Riley constantly heard from clients at her salon in California. She spoke with her brother Mauro, and the two set out to create the Car Seat Key. After a couple years testing designs and materials, they came up with a winner.
The plastic modified U-shape gadget slips over the car seat buckle. With one or two hands, a gentle squeeze releases the buckle. It comes in many colours and with a key chain.
