How can the unique characteristics of a car seat be objectively assessed? To choose your child’s car seat you often rely on the opinions and experiences of the people you know or on reviews you find online. There are, however, organizations that can help you make this delicate decision. Their accurate assessment tests, which include crash tests, stress car seats in various ways until a final decision is reached, which comes as real consumer advice.

The most important among these impartial bodies is the ICRT (International Consumer Report & Testing), which combines 37 organizations in 33 countries worldwide.  Among them, the ADAC (German automobile club), TCS (Swiss Touring Club) and ÖAMTC (the Austrian equivalent) every year select a group of car seats that they test. The results are then published by the main consumer associations (e.g. Stitungwarentest in Germany, Altroconsumo in Italy, Que Choisir in France, Which? in the UK).

Primo Viaggio i-Size is the best car seat in its category

According to the ADAC 2019 tests, the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio i-Size (Base included), is the best car seat in its category, i.e. from birth to 18 months. Our Primo Viaggio i-Size car seat scored excellent results in the 2019 tests carried out by Stiftung Warentest, ADAC, ÖAMTC and TCS.

How testing assigns the final grade

Tests are carried out according to 4 categories: Safety, Handling, Ergonomics and Pollutants. The 5 assessment grades are:

• Excellent (0,5 - 1,5)
• Highly recommended (1,6 - 2,5)
• Recommended (2,6 - 3,5)
• Recommended with reserve (3,6 - 4,5)
• Not recommended (4,6 - 5,5)

Quality standards are very high; the final grade is the average of the results in the 4 categories, considering that the Safety category has the greatest influence on the result.

ADAC assigns Highly Recommended to Primo Viaggio i-Size

The Primo Viaggio i-Size (Base included) car seat was assigned an overall grade of ‘1.6’, the best in the 0-18 month category, so its overall ranking, according to ADAC 2019, is ‘highly recommended’. Here are the details of each of the assessed criteria:

• Safety: VERY GOOD (1.4)
• Handling: GOOD (1.8)
• Ergonomics: GOOD (1.9)
• Pollutants: GOOD (2.2)

You’ve probably never had much time to walk, and taking a stroll may never have been one of your favourite pastimes. But now that you’re a parent, my guess is you like the idea of having a walk with your child - especially now that he’s a few months old, and starting to sit up and look at the world go by.

It's good for mom and it's good for baby

The good news is that walking is easy and within everyone’s reach. It is good for the heart, but also for the mind. While you’re walking, endorphins arouse a feeling of euphoria that makes away with stress, anxiety and concern. It clears the mind, and if you’re feeling good, so will your child. After spending his first few months in a Navetta bassinet, now he can’t wait to go out strolling with mom and dad, taking in the wonders of the world and meeting new people and other children.

Whether he already knows how to walk, or he still has to take his first steps, the stroller will be your constant companion on your walks together. If you like more dynamic outings, you’ll love the compact, practical and versatile Booklet 50 S stroller with an aluminium frame.

Great freedom, on any ground

Time to get ready! Put on some comfortable clothes and have a chat with your little one. Tell him you're about to go and check out the outside world, and that it’s going to be fun. He’ll feel involved, and he’ll learn to recognize the preparations for this pleasant moment of the day. It is extremely important to spend some quality time together, so the details shouldn’t be left to chance - especially those, such as the choice of stroller, that will help you have a more pleasant experience.

If your destination is a park or a dirt path, you’ll need wheels that can live up to the situation, such as the Soft-Ride wheels of the Booklet 50 S. Their ultra-resistant treads, shock absorbers and 12 ball bearings will allow you to take on any terrain, no matter how rough!

Fancy a stroll in town? You’ll need to be able to manoeuvre your stroller with ease. What about a stroller that is just 50 cm wide and comes with an adjustable handle in hand-sewn faux leather? With Booklet 50 S, you can tackle the narrowest corners, such as old elevators or supermarket checkouts, with just one hand!

No fear of the unexpected

You’ll also manage to get on and off the bus with ease. Why? Because you can close it with one hand, and it stands upright on its own, without taking up too much space. Once folded it can be carried like a trolley case by its centralised handle. “Yes, but on public transport, where everyone can touch it...” No worries, the cover that comes into contact with your child remains protected, guaranteeing the utmost hygiene.

The beauty of going for a walk is being in the open air, especially after the endless bad weather. But to avoid the unexpected cold, you can use the stain and waterproof fabric foot muff provided with the Booklet 50 S. That way your child will be enveloped in a soft embrace and sheltered from the cold. To protect him from the wind and sun, you can extend the hood with UV Protection 50+, which is also equipped with a loop to hang your baby's favourite toy.

Strolling about and taking in the sights can be very tiring. The Booklet 50 S comes with an adjustable backrest and footrest, so that you can find the best position for nap time while out walking.

And if the look is important to you...

You can choose between three colours - Vibes Black, Vibes Gray and Vibes Red - for the soft technical honeycomb fabric with fashionable inserts. And the style? Sporty, and absolutely on-trend.

You can also transform it into a handy travel system

You can transform the Booklet 50 S stroller - approved for use from birth - as a handy travel system. Booklet 50 S can accommodate the Porte-enfant accessories and the Primo Viaggio SL car seat, sold separately. Booklet 50 S also comes with a baby bag with changing mat.

So, what stroller should you buy? If you want to spend some quality time with your child and don’t wish to leave the details to chance, then the Booklet 50 S, in Peg Perego’s all-Italian style, is the perfect choice, rooted in inimitable simplicity, functionality and beauty.

It is difficult to associate a high chair with an image of peace and comfort. Weaning frequently overlaps with tantrums and food scattered all over the kitchen because - let’s face it - no child really likes leaving mum’s warm embrace and having to sit up at table instead.

In this sense, technology and design can really help today’s mums thanks to multi-functional high chairs, designed to ensure maximum comfort for children and especially for parents. It is well known that for Italians meals are sacred and a moment of pleasure - why give up such a thing?

Follow us and I will explain to you why Tatamia Peg Perego is the ideal multi-functional high chair to make your child appreciate, from the very beginning, more than just the joys of sitting at table!

Reason 1: you can use it from birth

Usually, a high chair for meals enters our kitchen when our child turns 6 months old. Before this age, children have not developed the muscles needed to sit up unaided and, most importantly, it is around this age that children start to be weaned with semi-liquid foods.

Tatamia Peg Perego is at your side from the very beginning of your child’s life because it is suitable from birth. Its swing function allows you to have your child next to you as you eat with the rest of the family, rocking your little one gently so that your meal is not interrupted by sudden screaming or unexpected surprises. It is also a comfortable recliner! Thanks to the  Comfort Recline system, comfortable naps are guaranteed - the seat slides forwards, turning the high chair into a welcoming recliner.

With the Tatamia high chair, your child will:
• become familiar with the high chair used for weaning when he or she becomes older;
• learn to be at table with parents and siblings, fitting into the family routine without disrupting it.

Isn’t that great?

Reason 2: too nice to hide

Assemble, disassemble and reassemble the high chair every time: why? It is far better to have a high chair that is easy to move, to assemble when the child is born and disassemble many years later.

Tatamia Peg Perego, in addition to being comfortable and spacious for your child, is also easy to move from one room to another thanks to the Stop & Go system, which allows you, with one button, to fix it firmly next to kitchen table or to move it easily into the living room without damaging the floor, thanks to the non-scratch wheels.
PS: the button is sibling-proof, so older brothers or sisters will not be able to move the high chair.

Reason 3: too comfortable and convenient not to use all the time! 

Weaning stress is what could make peaceful meals in your home impossible for months and months.

Switching from milk to solid food - however natural - could be a source of stress for your child and for the entire family. Tears, screams, baby pasta and puréed fruit all over the place could become your daily routine.

However, we have a very good reason for being optimistic: Tatamia Peg Perego will become your child’s best friend and will be with him or her as he or she, gently and gradually, moves from drinking only milk to holding the first spoonful of solid food.

This is because:
• welcoming eco leather:
  its cover makes it as soft as mum’s embrace. A clean embrace: the cover can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth.

• From swing to recliner to high chair, without your little one even noticing:
  adjustable in height in 9 different positions, with a comfort recliner and anatomical leg divider, it will be your most comfortable ally          during weaning.

• You will always find the right position:
the backrest may be reclined into 4 positions while the footrest may be adjusted to 3 positions.

• Safety:
padded anatomical child seat with 3-point safety harness.

• From eating to playing or drawing:
even if meals are important and dedicated wholly to eating, thanks to the removable and machine-washable double tray, even the most active             children will be able to switch from snack time to coloured crayons with no fuss at all.
It is also convenient when folded, as it is free standing and easy to store.

Children just love to watch - and help! - Dad and Grampa at work in the garden or courtyard. And bring on those grown-up tools! Manual and electric equipment, small tractors and bulldozers.

Working with Dad is fun!

When Dad and Grampa are busy at work with all those jobs, big and small, in the garden and courtyard, little ones just love to help out. So why not let your child have a go? 100% fun guaranteed.

The electric bulldozer for children

Suitable from the age of three, you can now finally meet those "Can I help Dad, pleaaaase?!" with a confident, "Sure, why not?". There are plenty of grown-up things he can do - the sort that makes him come home dirty and tired, but happy to have helped out.

And you'll be so proud watching him manoeuvre the Deere Construction Loader - the perfect tool for your little one. With this electric bulldozer for children, which runs on a 12V/8Ah rechargeable battery, your child will be able to control the digging bucket, with all the safety of a high quality product designed and made in Italy. All your son will need to become your hard-working assistant is a pair of dungarees and a work hat.

Make your tiny tot feel all grown up

Once settled in the adjustable seat of the Deere Construction Loader, he can switch on the FM radio - just as you do for company while sorting out the garage or painting the wall.

The controls to raise and lower the digging bucket are within easy reach of the driver's seat. Loading and moving material (gravel, earth, sand, grass, snow, etc.) wherever you want it is now...well..child's play! Mum will be amazed to see her little one being so good and efficient working alongside Dad.

The Deere Construction Loader has two speeds and a reverse gear to negotiate difficult corners and hunt through the garden for things to do.

7 things your child can do with the Deere

Construction Loader

This is no simple bulldozer! It is a faithful working reproduction, in miniature scale, of the American John Deere models. The only limit to your child's play is that posed by your garden - because with the Deere Construction Loader, playing indoors is strictly forbidden. Decked out in work clothes, with his sleeves rolled up, there's no end to the outdoor fun your child can have!

7 ways (we know) of having fun with your son and the Deere Construction Loader:

1. Something easy to get started? Get him to learn to use the controls by loading clothes pegs and taking them over to the line.
2. Does he have an inseparable cuddly toy? He can keep it at his side, or prop him up in the digging bucket as he dashes around the garden.
3. Just cut the grass? He can load it onto the bucket and drop it next to the compost bin.
4. Holes in the garden? Let him carry over some earth and fill them in.
5. Lots of leaves on the ground? Time to clear up with the Deere Construction Loader.
6. Has it snowed? Finally someone who can give you a hand to move the smaller piles.
7. Need more loading capacity? The Deere Construction Trailer can carry up to 10 kg.

And that's just the start! The Deere Construction Loader is indeed a bulldozer, but it is also a means of unleashing your child's imagination and creativity. So just rev up and get down to work. And above all, have fun playing with your son.

The Deere Construction Loader forms part of the Peg Perego line of John Deere electric tractors for children aged 3 and up.

Made-in-Peg Perego quality and safety.

The quality of Peg Perego products is reflected in details guaranteeing the utmost safety. This product comes with a sealed base to protect the driver from electrical wires and tampering, and to protect the vehicle from water, mud and sand. The battery is protected by a child-safe battery lock.

Dads from all over the world: are you ready to challenge other parents in one of the most difficult tasks? Take your baby for a stroll!

On your side is the Pliko Mini Ducati stroller - there is nothing more practical and agile, which is useful in critical situations such as going shopping, catching the bus or taking your baby to nursery school. You will even be able to make up for lost time thanks to its wheels with suspensions (highly performing even after years of use).

It may be small but it certainly is great. Here are 7 reasons to choose the Pliko Mini Ducati stroller.

1 Branded Ducati, exclusively for Peg Perego! (Ducati lovers: there is no point in reading the next 4 reasons).
Let the details of its design conquer you - ergonomic handles with eco leather finish, adjustable in height so you can stand straight, with external seams and contrast stitching, for a firmer grip and more comfortable steering experience. The legrest is made of very resistant eco leather as well.

2 Incredibly compact. A stroller that measures just 50 cm in width, 101 cm in height and 84 cm in depth means you have much more freedom of movement, especially in town. It fits easily into the car trunk when folded - its width is just 34 cm, height 94 cm and depth 32 cm. The handle on the back means you can carry it like a trolley case.

3 Extremely light. Pliko Mini likes to keep its figure and weighs only 5.7 kg, so you can effortlessly load it into the car trunk and fold it with one hand.

4 No-stress folding. Pliko Mini Ducati has an umbrella fold. Once folded it takes up very little room and you can leave it on the landing, at the nursery or at the swimming pool where it will not get in the way (and it will not get dirty because the fabric does not touch the ground - your partner will be amazed by how important hygiene is to you).

5 Forever. Pliko Mini Ducati is suitable from birth and you will use it until your baby grows into a toddler.

6 Comfort is part of the package. It would be great if there were a version for adults! Pliko Mini is comfortable because of its features - wide seat, backrest that reclines into three different positions (over 150°), legrest that can be adjusted into 2 positions and super carrier basket. It comes with a hood with window (to check on your child) and a toy hook to keep your little one busy when he or she is bored.

7 Made in Peg Perego safety. The Pliko Mini Ducati has a height-adjustable 5-point safety harness. The front wheels can be locked or swiveling, the back ones are locked with a centralized brake.

Pliko Mini Ducati is an example of the Made in Italy style and high quality famous all over the world. All Peg Perego Baby Products and Toys are made in Italy. All production phases - from design to manufacturing - are carried out exclusively by Peg Perego.
