Bucklebee Easy Car Seat Buckle Release Aid for Children Unbuckle Car Seat Release Tool - Button Pusher - Opener for Nails - Buckle Release (1 Pack Teal)

Great quality, easy to install, and durable. We bought this some time ago and I waited to review to see about durability mostly. It has held up very well. We bought it for our 4 year old daughter so she could unbuckle by herself. She wasn't able to do it for the first few months, but even still, it made it easier for me to unbuckle her. She has finally figured it out and loves the freedom of not having to wait for us to unbuckle her. We have 4 in car seats/booster and this has helped so much in cutting out time of climbing into the back to unbuckle (21st century problems I know). Would definitely recommend!

Effectiveness: This Bucklebee car seat buckle release aid has been an absolute game-changer for helping my 4-year-old develop independence while getting in and out of his car seat. The tool provides just enough leverage to make the buckle release manageable for small fingers without compromising the safety mechanism. What I love most is how it's empowered him to unbuckle himself when appropriate while still requiring adult assistance for the initial buckling. The design works perfectly with our car seat's buckle system, and my son feels so proud being able to help with this step. It's eliminated the daily struggle and frustration he used to experience trying to press the release button, making car trips much more pleasant for everyone. Quality: The construction is excellently designed with child-safe materials that feel durable and well-made. The bright button design is appealing to kids while being large enough for little hands to grip easily. The tool is sized perfectly to provide mechanical advantage without being bulky or cumbersome to use. The plastic construction is sturdy enough to withstand daily use and the occasional drop without breaking or showing wear. I appreciate that it's designed specifically for car seat buckles rather than being a generic tool, showing the manufacturer understands the specific needs and safety considerations involved. Value for Money: This simple tool provides incredible value when you consider the independence and confidence it gives children while reducing daily parenting stress. The cost is minimal compared to the frustration it eliminates and the life skill development it supports. Having a tool that makes our daily routine smoother while promoting my child's growing independence makes this one of the smartest parenting purchases I've made. The durability means it will serve through years of use and potentially help multiple children, making it extremely cost-effective for the benefits provided. This has become an essential part of our car routine and I recommend it to any parent with children who struggle with car seat buckles. Simple solution that makes a big difference!

Oh my goodness the bucklebee is a lifesaver! My 5 year old is unable to release the bottom buckle of the car seat on her own. We went thru 3 unbuckle devices from a different brand in 6 months. Each breaking after a couple months of use. Today was just the first two times using Bucklebee and I can already tell this unbuckler is far more functional and worth the cost. My 5 year old said tonight she loves it a lot more than the other brand we had. I especially love how it sits attached to the car seat while not in use! The action to release the buckle with bucklebee is very intentional. The buckle is not coming open on accident. No worries regarding safety here. I’m also not hunting in the backseat for a device. A lost unbuckle aid defeats the entire purpose of making a child more independent! I wish there were more colors but the blue is cute. I don’t imagine this device will break anytime soon but we may buy another for my next kid in a 5 point harness or for grandparent cars.

There are different types of unbuckler products. We’ve tried them all. This is the easiest to operate for kids and the sturdiest that will not break. It attaches to the belt and can stay there so they don’t drop or lose it. And seriously it’s solid. The other unbucklers (the little pinchy-style ones) that come in different colors are cute, but harder to attach on the buckler to use and we’ve broken At least 4 of them. And my kid is in the 1 percentile so she is absolutely not strong by any means but she’s broken 3 of them. A small underweight developmentally behind 2 year old foster kid broke a fourth one before I found out these existed. The other styles are bulkier and take up a full car seat cup holder or get knocked down when the kids are going in/out to where they cannot reach the buckler to use it defeating the purpose of them having it to be self-sufficient. This is by far a superior product. Great gift. Every parent should have this. The confidence and independence it gives my little petite child is priceless plus it makes school drop off a breeze.

The product works well... However, my extremely sensory sensitive five year old does not like the "bulky touchy" feeling touching her legs from the center buckle. It's unavoidable, but something to consider before purchasing.

This little gadget is really wonderful! No more twisting around to unbuckle my tiny 5 year old at school drop off. She also feels so confident at being a « big girl ». Easy to install, and use. Nice thick plastic and definitely worth every penny. I picked gray to fit with our car seat.

I love this and that it helps my son ubuckle himself! He feels independent and it saves me from crawling in back of car! Great value, easy to use, it’s small and sturdy and functions as is supposed to. Super easy for toddlers and older to use. We started at 4 bc that’s when I found it but will start other children younger!

I started using this when my daughter turned 4. I had just switched her to forward facing and I couldn’t reach her for school drop off since she’s in the backseat opposite side. After some training and with the help of this tool, she unbuckles herself every day. I say it’s great for responsible kids because I just leave it attached and she would never unbuckle her seat except for when I say “unbuckle” once we have arrived some where. For my son on the other hand, he’s only 2 but not quite sure I’ll use this with him - lol. I do wish they were more affordable but they are used daily so it is worth it.
