Child Safety and Comfort
The sun roof option protects the child’s sensitive skin from harmful sun rays, especially on hot summer days or at higher altitudes (sun roof for Kid Comfort Air & 2 available as additional accessory, on Kid Comfort 3 it is integrated). Mind: always apply sunscreen even when the child is not exposed to direct sunlight!
The ergonomic design of the Deuter Kid Carriers is thought-through to the detail and was developed in cooperation with paediatric surgeon Dr. med Micha Bahr from the Ruhr University Bochum. It guarantees a healthy and safe sitting posture for the child: the width of the seat varies in relation to the adjusted height and in combination with the footrests creates the perfect individual position. Deuter Kid Comfort child carriers are all TÜV approved and carry the GS safety certificate. The TÜV tests the durability and function of the carrier, from frame to straps and closures, checking the handling and comfort as well as analysing the chemical properties of the material. The Kid Comfort child carriers are suitable for children who can sit upright by themselves. The maximum load capacity (child 18 kg + gear 4 kg) is max. 22 kg.
The width of the seat cushions matches the adjusted height and thus gurantees an ergonomic sitting posture in combination with the specific footrest construction. The width increases with the height of the seat to guarantee a natural spread squat position; the lower the seat the narrower the width for an upright sitting position.
The simple and safe side entry is very popular with Larger children, because they have the option of climbing into the seat by themselves. This also makes lifting smaller children into the pack much easier and minimises back strain.
The sturdy aluminium frame provides a safe and stable free-stand
Height adjustable footrests prevent nerves getting pinched which can lead to cold legs or pins and needles. The foot rests are mobile, which encourages the child to kick with the legs and thus promotes circulation. The foot rests are attached in a way that prevents the child from standing up. If they extend their legs, they will just press against the back rest of the carrier.
The height of the seat is easily and generously adjustable – even when the child is already seated. Lift the buckle under the chin pad to lower the seat; or tighten the adjustment strap to lift the seat. Slip one hand under the seat to support the lift. The height adjustable seat perfectly accomodates the growing child, with the chin at the level of the upper half of the chin pad.
with its wide kickstand and guarantees an easy access. Its frame geometry has no rough and sharp edges, is extremely robust and features a soft fabric cover in the seat area (Kid Comfort 2 & 3). You can effortlessly extend and retract the kickstand while carrying. A “click” sound ensures that the kickstand has snapped into its standing or transport position.

With the Vari Fit System
86 FAMILY
all Kid Comfort models can be effortlessly adjusted to the wearer’s individual back length. This is vital for the perfect fit of the child carrier and guarantees a safe and balanced carry.
AIRCOMFORT SYSTEM The anatomically shaped hip fins are made from multiple layers. The inner side has a layer of soft foam with 3D AirMesh lining for heightened comfort. The firm foam on the outside is modelled to the anatomic shape and transfers the load to the hips. Side compression straps on the fins regulate the load and increase stability.
AIRCONTACT SYSTEM
Kid Comfort 2 & 3: Anatomically shaped, pivoting Vari Flex hip wings follow complex movements and thus save energy on stairs, uneven terrain or steep paths. The Pull-Forward adjustment system on the hip belt easily cinches the child carrier close to the body even when fully loaded.
KID COMFORT SYSTEM
Carrier Safety and Comfort Ventilated proven back systems – Aircomfort (Kid Comfort Air) or Aircontact (Kid Comfort 2 & 3) – guarantee Deuter’s signature carry comfort. The back systems further create a space for airflow between child and carrier: this reduces perspiration, prevents heat accumulation and saves energy.
The Pull-Forward construction on the hip belt allows the hip fins to be positioned correctly even with a full load.
