  • 3x UnbuckleMe (Pink, Purple, Blue)*: As Seen on Shark Tank, BuzzFeed, GMA, UnbuckleMe is the genius gadget that makes it 50% easier to push the red button on the 5pt harness. Unbuckle kids' car seats with ease! For Arthritis, Carpal Tunnel, Long Nails, or independent Kids 4 yrs+ who are ready to unbuckle themselves (think: carpool line!)

*3 UnbuckleMe's are individually packaged, for easy gift giving!

1. Lift & Slide: Position over the side of the red buckle

2. Pinch the Ends: Center over the buckle and press the farthest ends together

3. Pull Down: Pull the harness clips out of the buckle to release

✨ Pro tip: Sometimes it helps to loosen the child's car seat straps first, to make it easier to position UnbuckleMe around the crotch buckle.

UnbuckleMe has a soft, grippy top surface designed for comfort and stability. It can be used with one hand and even squeezed with fingers and the palm of the hand (using no thumbs at all!)

UnbuckleMe uses a type II lever (the same concept as an old fashioned nutcracker) to reduce the force by more than 50%.

Attach to UnbuckleMe to a keychain, or store in a convenient place inside the car (side door pocket, center console or front visor)


Compatible with all car seats in the USA

FAQ

Will UnbuckleMe work on all car seats?

Yes, UnbuckleMe has been tested across a range of car seats and push-button buckle shapes, including Graco, Chicco, Britax, Clek, UPPAbaby, Nuna, Recaro, Diono, Maxi-Cosi, Cosco, Evenflo, and many others. It was not designed to work on buttons that do not require a single-button push from the front (e.g., slide action buckles)

Can I attach UnbuckleMe to my child's car seat?

No, this is not recommended. Car seat manufacturers and Child Passenger Safety Technicians (CPSTs) prohibit any after-market items to be attached to the car seat, and doing so may cause safety risks or void your car seat warranty. UnbuckleMe was designed to be used under adult supervision, and should remain out of reach of children when not in use.

Where should I keep UnbuckleMe?

It is important that UnbuckleMe is readily accessible to use when you need it, but also remains out of reach of children when not in use. We recommend storing in the side-door or seat-back pocket of your car, although many customers prefer to attach to a keychain, or drop in a purse or diaper bag.

Does UnbuckleMe work on strollers & high chairs?

Possibly. UnbuckleMe has been tested on a range of push-button high chairs and strollers and works well. However, these buttons are far less standardized and vary by manufacturer, so we have not been able to test them all.

Does UnbuckleMe work on adult vehicle seat belts?

No, UnbuckleMe was not designed for adult car seat belt buckles, which are oriented vertically and are depressed using extended fingers, rather than the thumb. We do not suggest that UnbuckleMe will be effective in assisting people who struggle with adult vehicle car seat belt buckles.

What is UnbuckleMe made from?

The body of UnbuckleMe is made from a lightweight plastic material. The top handle is covered with a softer, “grippy” material to provide greater comfort and stability. All materials are BPA free and tested to withstand very high/low temperatures.

I've seen similar products on Amazon. Is UnbuckleMe the original?

Yes. UnbuckleMe is the original, and we told our story on Shark Tank in May 2020. UnbuckleMe was the first product to file patents in 2016 and received utility and design patents issued in 2019. We are continually working to defend our intellectual property. There are other products on the market that appear similar but none use leverage to reduce the force to unbuckle, while also not attaching to the car seat, for safety. UnbuckleMe is also the only product with a non-slip grip for comfort and stability.

Where is UnbuckleMe made?

UnbuckleMe was invented and designed by a mother & daughter in Houston, Texas. It is manufactured responsibly in China, with raw materials sourced from both the USA and South Korea.

About us

It started with a problem

When Barb's first granddaughter was born in 2015, Barb quickly realized that she couldn't unbuckle her car seat because of arthritis in her thumb. Car seat buckles require 9 lbs of pressure, so kids can't unbuckle themselves (Yay!) But this meant she couldn't take her new granddaughter out in the car, which was disappointing, and not safe (Boo!) She was excited to take her new granddaughter out of the house, and had to find a way.

We took our idea to a trade show

Barb is an Occupational Therapist and spent her career adapting equipment for patients with disabilities of the hand. She was the perfect person to solve her own problem! She invented UnbuckleMe, a small tool that uses leverage to make car seat buckles easier. Her daughter Becca saw her mom's invention, and thought it was genius. She suggested they market their invention, and together, they launched their business.

And the rest is history

Barb & Becca have achieved national distribution with their patented UnbuckleMe invention. In addition to grandparents with arthritis, moms with long nails and families with kids in the 3rd row are raving about this game-changing tool. Barb & Becca appeared on ABC's Shark Tank in 2020, and received offers from all 5 sharks! They have been featured in BuzzFeed, Good Morning America, NBC, USA Today and consistently ranked as a top car seat accessory on Amazon.

UnbuckleMe is

Easy to Use

Slide UnbuckleMe around the buckle and pinch the ends together. Apply slight pressure and pull down to release

Kid Friendly

Children 4 years+ usually have the dexterity to position UnbuckleMe® around the buckle and release their own harness buckle. This is a big help for parents who are tired of climbing to the 3rd row to unbuckle their oldest! (Think: the school drop-off line)

Lightweight & Portable

Attach to UnbuckleMe to a keychain, or store in a convenient place inside the car (side door pocket, center console or front visor). We don't recommending attaching to the car seat, as it should remain out of children's reach when the car is moving.

Great idea!

I am a GiGi and I have long fingernails and mild artery. This is such a great device to help unlatch the safety harness in my grandson’s car seat. I just keep it attached to one of the loops on the seat so it is always where I need it.

Great Customer Service

We had one of our Unbuckle Me Tools break and I sent an email to customer service about it. They sent me a replacement within a week and were great to work with. My 5-year-olds are able to unbuckle themselves with this tool and they have worked great!
