As Seen on Shark Tank, UnbuckleMe is a small tool that makes it 50% EASIER to unbuckle a child’s car seat. It prevents thumb pain and broken nails for parents and grandparents who struggle to push the red button. It does not attach to the car seat, for safety. Works on all push-button car seat buckles in the USA.

  • Works as an opener on all child car seat buckles (including infant rear-facing, convertible and booster seats that use a 5 point harness seat belt) and many strollers, high chairs and other push-button devices

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)

UnbuckleMe Car Seat Release.

I have arthritis and could not open my grandchild's car seat buckle. I just slide the tool over the buckle and press. The buckle opens immediately. Great invention.

A lifesaver for me

UnbuckleMe tool is the only way I can get my grandchildren out of their carseats. It is a true life saver for me. I recently had to trade cars with my daughter-in-law so I could pick up my sick grandbaby. I forgot to take my unbuckleme with me and had a terrible time getting him out of the carseat. Ordered more so I could put one in her car. I highly recommend.

Perfect for daughter with cerebral palst

I purchased the unbuckleme for my 7 year old that has cerebral palsy and is still in a five point harness. We wanted to give her the independence that her siblings have after she became increasingly frustrated that they can unbuckle themselves but she can not. With the unbuckleme she is able to get herself unbuckled with the same ease as they can and she is SO proud of herself. For a child who faces many obstacles and relies on others for support with simple tasks, giving her independence in whatever way possible is something we are always trying to navigate. Thank you for creating such an amazing product!

We love the tool. My 6 year old loves being able to u buckle herself. She is able to do it without assistance. It gives her the sense of independence she always craves.
