The UPPAbaby KNOX Convertible Car Seat

Over the past 15 years (and a little more), UPPAbaby has been quickly becoming a behemoth of the high-end baby industry. Let us introduce you to their entry for the convertible car seat category, the UPPAbaby KNOX. It is as strong, durable, fashionable, and safe as what you have come to expect from all the different product lines designed and built by UPPAbaby. The KNOX is designed to grow with your child, starting at 14 pounds and going all the way up to 65 pounds or 49” in height, whichever comes first. In simple terms, this convertible car seat will be with your child until they are ready for a booster car seat many years down the road. It’s stylish, sophisticated, and safe—everything that UPPAbaby stands for.

The UPPAbaby KNOX Product Range

The UPPAbaby KNOX convertible car seat offers a few unique features, along with the style and comfort everyone loves from UPPAbaby. The price point is a bit higher than other brands’ offerings at the convertible car seat level, but the return on investment is higher. The seat is more comfortable, safer, and goes above and beyond with additional features that you cannot find anywhere else. One of the standout features of the KNOX is its Koroyd crash-protection technology, which is based on aerospace science. These honeycomb-like collapsible cylindrical tube structures absorb energy in a crash. Koroyd designs and engineers this material for advanced impact protection for a diverse range of markets and products, including protective sports equipment, and they do a heck of a job keeping the UPPAbaby KNOX car seat safe as well.

The KNOX is also one of the few car seats available that allows for a multi-directional tether strap, which can be used to improve safety for a rear-facing installation (as the KNOX can be used as both a rear-facing and front-facing car seat). The seat’s safety credentials are further enhanced by its ability to pass federal safety standards without the use of fire retardant chemicals, thanks to the use of merino wool. Additionally, UPPAbaby offers a limited lifetime warranty on all car seats, underscoring their commitment to quality and safety.

The KNOX also experienced a voluntary recall in 2020, which was not based on any injury reports but rather UPPAbaby’s own testing. They identified that in the rear-facing position, the KNOX had too much lateral motion. While this may have caused some initial concern, UPPAbaby’s proactive approach and commitment to improving their product demonstrates their dedication to safety and quality. Since then, the KNOX has seen tremendous success as a convertible car seat, and it is FAA certified for aircraft use.

What Parents Are Saying About the UPPAbaby KNOX

Parents who choose the UPPAbaby KNOX appreciate its unique combination of safety features, comfort, and style:

• Megan, Branchville, NJ: "After using the MESA I knew I wouldn’t even use another car seat brand! UPPAbaby products are superior to everything else on the market. I love the guidelines for attachment, the red/green indicators are so helpful in knowing your car seat is attached properly."
• Angelika, SLC, Utah: "Beautiful and comfy car seat for my growing 1-yr-old! We have this seat in one of our vehicles so that we aren't lugging a car seat back and forth between them. It feels very secure and every function and detail appears to be thoughtful toward baby & parents."
