The specialist – Car seat with highly adaptive positioning for children with special needs.
Which children is this car seat for?
- For children between 15 and 36 kg
- Between approximately 100-150 cm in length
- Getting in and out is difficult and tiring (the turntable makes for an easier transfer)
- My child has difficulty holding his head up and has little body tension.
- He should be able to sit relaxed in the car in a slightly reclined position that is easy to adjust.
- I don't want my child's legs dangling in the air when they are in the car. we need a footrest that can be adjusted to the leg length.
- My child needs a lot of support when sitting, an individual special construction solution for good upper body support would probably be best for us.
- Als mijn kind niet met mij reist, mag het autostoeltje niet los in de auto rond kunnen vliegen. Altijd gespen op een lege stoel, daar heb ik geen tijd voor.

The "Thomashilfen Commander" can handle any challenge. As a special chair for special requirements and positioning, it is ideally suited for highly individual care solutions .
Children are supported where they need support and protection . Especially for children with little control over the upper body, the fixed side torso supports offer this extra support - the supports have proven themselves over many years in rehabilitation strollers.
A huge selection of accessories and simple operation make the adjustment perfect.
