PEACE OF MIND

GDEX for Kids hardware comes standard with a built-in lockout latch to prevent everything from backpacks to curious fingers from accidentally disengaging the backrest.

Discreetly hidden once engaged, it is one less thing to worry about as your child goes about their day. Utilizing the DEX design means it is easy to set-up and adjust. The audible “click” when installed makes sure you know when its locked in place and ready-to-go.

Keep your child comfortable with the breathable, wipeable cover that remains cool to the touch and provides the right amount of stretch for comfort. Easily removable for cleaning, you won’t find a cover that multi-tasks like this anywhere else!

Lighter density foam in the cushion is designed for lighter users, while also providing support. (Applicable to all models)
