As Seen on Shark Tank, UnbuckleMe is a small tool that makes it 50% EASIER to unbuckle a child’s car seat. It makes it easier 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.

  • Patented lever arm reduces the force needed to unbuckle an infant or toddler 5 point harness buckle by more than 50 percent to help anyone with limited hand strength or long nails
  • Soft, grippy surface keeps it stable and provides a comfortable surface to push, press or squeeze the ends together to apply leverage to unbuckle
  • 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
  • Invented by an Occupational Therapist with thumb pain (who is also a Grandma of four) and her daughter, who is a nationally certified child passenger safety technician (CPST)

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

Thank goodness!

I have arthritis in both thumb joints. My grandson is only three months old. I was having a terrible time getting him out of his car seat because of the buckles. My thumbs hurt too much to release them. Thank goodness for unbuckle me. I now have no problems getting him out. Great invention!

UnBuckleMe Tool

I bought 2 of the unbuckleme tools so I can have one at my daughters house and one at my house. I use them on my grandsons hichairs which work really slick cause I don't have enough strength to push the release buttons.

Wonderful! Worth twice the money.

I have skin issues that cause the skin on my fingertips to crack and split, which makes unbuckling the harness painful and difficult. I was a little skeptical but figured it’s worth a try. Unbuckled is 100% as easy to use as advertised. Thank you for the clever creation!

Perfect for aching thumbs

Bought one for me and my mother in law, we both type with computers a lot. Just an easy hook on to the seat belt buckle and a slight press and it easily pops the seat belt open. I would get sharp pains trying to press the button with all my strength but now no problem and it cuts down struggle time with a fussy impatient toddler. Love this!!

Definitely a must have

I have damage to my hands and wrist so pushing the buckle has been a challenge. This works insanely well.
