Latch is a system by which you bypass installing your car seat with the vehicles seatbelts, instead using the vehicles latch anchors points in the crease of the seat to install the latches. (Note: not all vehicles have this feature). What makes "SuperLATCH" different is the ability to use the latch installed seat up to 65 or 80 pounds depending on model of RadianSL car seat.
Traditional latch anchors are only rated to 48 pounds and require you to change over to a seatbelt installation for the remainder of the car seats weight capacity running the risk of an incorrect installation. With the steel alloy frame and SuperLATCH installation we think these car seats have all the safety features parents demand in a high weight capacity car seat.
