FAQs

Is this cushion suitable for all car seats?

The cushion is designed to fit most Group 0 car seats and systems with 3 or 5-point harnesses. Always ensure the harness can be securely fastened over the cushion according to your car seat manufacturer's safety guidelines.

How often should I clean the lambskin cushion?

It's recommended to hand wash the cushion as needed, typically when visibly soiled or after extended use. Regular airing and brushing can help maintain freshness between washes.

Can I use a washing machine for cleaning?

No, the cushion is strictly hand wash only. Machine washing can damage the lambskin fibers and the material's structure.

Will the lambskin be too hot for my baby in summer?

Natural lambskin is breathable and has excellent thermoregulation properties. It helps to wick away moisture and dissipate heat, making it suitable for keeping babies cool in warmer temperatures.

How do I restore the softness of the lambskin after washing?

After drying, gently brush the wool pile with a specialized wire brush or comb designed for sheepskin. This will help to fluff up the fibers and restore their natural softness and loft.

Where are the lambskins sourced from?

The lambskins are sourced from flocks that live with their shepherds on rural pastures across Germany and other European countries, ensuring sustainable and ethical production.

What are the dimensions of the cushion?

The cushion measures approximately 77 x 36 cm, providing generous coverage for most infant carriers and strollers.

Troubleshooting

Cushion feels stiff after washing

This can happen if the natural lanolin is stripped. Gently brush the wool pile after drying to restore softness. If persistent, consider using a specialized lambskin re-tanning agent according to product instructions.

Harness straps don't align with slots

Reposition the cushion and ensure you are using the closest slots available for your specific harness system. The 8 slots offer flexibility, but minor adjustments may be needed for a perfect fit.

Noticeable odor from the lambskin

Natural lambskin can have a slight inherent odor initially. Airing the cushion outdoors for a few days should help dissipate any strong smells. Ensure the cushion is fully dry after cleaning to prevent mustiness.

Color transfer onto clothing

While unlikely with proper care, initial washes of darker dyed lambskins could potentially transfer color. Ensure the cushion is thoroughly rinsed and dried separately before use. Avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture.
