The UPPAbaby MESA V2 FR-Free Infant Car Seat combines the latest car seat technologies with the familiarity of the original MESA to ensure the utmost safety for your little one and put your mind at ease, as you can be sure your child is protected at all times.
The MESA V2 comes with a redesigned infant insert suitable for babies up to 11lbs. Its curved design, breathable mesh lining and two side wings provide extra comfort and encourage healthy posture. Thanks to the insert’s simplified design, the crotch buckle doesn’t need to be removed or repositioned when the insert is in use.
The carrier includes a retractable canopy made from stretchy UV-protective fabric, that is designed to protect your baby’s sensitive eyes and skin from the sun, and provide a cocoon-like surrounding for them to cozy up in.
All colors of the UPPAbaby MESA V2 FR-Free Infant Car Seat sold on Modern Nursery are fire retardant free and GREENGUARD Gold certified, so your child won’t be exposed to any nasty chemicals. The Gregory and Greyson styles are made of merino wool which is naturally fire-resistant and temperature-regulating.
