Britax Car Seat

I purchased this carseat for my son who just turned a year old and has outgrown his Graco Snugride. I found it a little difficult to tighten the straps and had to get my husband to help me, but other than that, this is an excellent carseat that lives up to its reputation. It is quite heavy, which I think is due to the new steel frame and construction. The padding is also very nice, my son fell asleep in it the first time I put him in it! There are these little velcro pieces on the side that are meant to keep the straps out of the way when you are getting your child in and out of the seat, but for some reason on mine (and on another Blvd floor model in BabiesRUs), it was hard to get the velcro pieces to align. However, that would be my only minor complaint about this seat.

This is a wonderful car seat. My daughter loves it. She is 12 months old and can see out the car windows perfectly. It is quite large, but not overly so. We have a Honda Accord and it still fits in next to a rear facting car seat though. It is a little hard to install due to the fact that the booklet is attached to the seat with no way to remove it, but fairly simple still. The harness is a little hard to get use to as sometimes one side seems to get tight while the other doesnt, but that is my error I believe as I can fix it. This is a very plush, safe car seat. I would definately recommend it.

We love this car seat. When my son was 3 months we purchased it, his infant carrier was too big for the back seat of Suzuki Aerio (not the hatch back). We took a display model for a test drive and fell in love with it right away. The compact size of this seat and its amazing safety ratings sealed the deal.

About a year later my spouse was assigned overseas. My son and I were unable to travel at the same time as him. When you combine this carseat with the Go Go Babyz travelmate it is a complete success. On our long 8.5 hr flight across the big pond my son slept like a dream. I was worried about installing this seat on the three different airplanes we traveled on. It was more than easy, i would ask the flight attendants for the seatbelt extension and in minutes the seat was in the airplane. On the longest flight there were a few other military families with the car seats that have wheels on them and are "travel" carseats, they struggled trying to get inbetween the seats and had to pick up the entire carseat to go through the isles. I was able to wheel my son in his Diplomat carseat with GoGO Babyz attachment right to our isle with no problems. Durring the flight two of the toddlers in the other car seats were cranky and cried alot. this was an overnight flight. My son was able to sleep like a dream, this was mostly because of the head rest.

The head rest on this carseat is amazing. It provides much needed protection and comfort. There was one instance where my husband and I borrowed a friends truck to move some large furniture. Our friend had a kid about the same age and so already had a carseat in the back seat. We figured our son would be ok for the roughly 3hrs we would have the truck. About forty five minutes into our drive, when he would normally have fallen alseep, he was restless and crying. Every time he tried to rest his head on the carseat (w/o the "wings") he would drift off and then wake up as we hit a bump or if there was a turn in the road. He acted like he was trying to find his headrest by rocking his head from side to side and then crying when he couldn't find it. After this "testing" a different carseat, my husband and I fully realized how amazing the Diplomat was. We never again used a different carseat on him.


**Warning child safety rant starts here**

on a side note. If you are considering this carseat and are apprehensive about the price tag, chew on this.

This is YOUR CHILD. The price of the car seat or the missing eddie baur label should NOT be a major factor. My husband and I are baffled at the carseats we see in other peoples super "safe" cars. Parents at times can focus soo much on how safe the car is, but fail to continue looking into making the car safe for thier new arrival. Your childs carseat is a continuation of your car's safety. Cute does not always equal safe. When I see a nice newer car and an adorable iffy carseat in the backseat, it just makes me wonder. You spend soooo much on your safe car and adorable accessories but forget to make traveling in the car safe for your child. If you really want to see some shocking footage just check out sarseat safety trials on U-Tube. See how "safe" graco and eddi bauer carseats really are.

True Side Impact Protection for Advanced Security
Offering True Side Impact Protection, the Diplomat Convertible Car Seat delivers superior protection if you happen to face an unexpected side-impact accident. If such an event takes place, the solid head support and deep side walls work efficiently to distribute crash forces, shield the child from vehicle intrusion, contain the head and body, and keep the head, neck, and spine aligned to limit injury.

Superior 360-Degree Protection to Minimize the Risk of Injury
In addition to True Side Impact Protection, the Diplomat offers a variety of superior crash force management features to keep your child properly positioned and protected. First, the patented, energy-absorbing Versa-Tether has staged-release tether webbing, anchoring the top of the seat at two points to minimize forward movement. For growing babies, the easy-adjust, tangle-free five-point harness offers infinite harness height adjustments for a snug, custom fit.

For additional protection, an energy-absorbing EPS foam liner and energy-absorbing base absorb and distribute forces in the event of an unexpected impact.

Superior Fit and Comfort Features
Whether children are watching the world go by or snuggling in for a nap, they'll enjoy that the Diplomat reclines in both the forward and rear position. With additional features which include high-density comfort foam for extra padding, a plush cover set with a matching belly pad for comfort, and an infant body pillow for a custom fit, they'll always ride in style and comfort.

Superior Ease of Use for Safety and Convenience
For quick adjustments, the Diplomat features an easy-turn knob that changes the headrest and harness height without requiring you to uninstall the seat, and a front harness adjuster allows for easy loosening of the straps. Premium push-button lower LATCH connectors provide a simple and tight installation, while built-in lock-offs secure the vehicle seat belt so that the car seat does not move more than one inch side-to-side or front-to-back at the belt path.

After doing a lot of research for an "upgrade" from my son's infant seat, we settled on the Britax Marathon and couldn't be happier. It is sturdy and comfortable. I started using it when he had outgrown his infant seat at about 13 months. The first time I put him in it, he actually slept for the first time in a long time while in the car. I think ths seat is very comfortable for him. It's also not bulky, as I have a compact car. This is THE BEST car seat, I can't say enough about it. Believe the hype about Britax, they are great products!!

I received my Britax Marathon as a shower gift for my first some (2006). I have a lot of friends who use Britax and this came HIGHLY recommended to me. I loved the pattern, we are country at heart and the fabric is amazing. I have washed this seat SEVERAL times and it still looks like new. We used it for DS#1 as a rear facing when he got to big for our infant carrier, I do wish it had a tether specifically designed for the seat when it was rear facing but we made due. We used the tether and fastened it to the frame work of front seat along with securing the latch system....the seat didn't move an inch! DS#1 loved being in this bigger seat. when he was of age and big enough we turned the seat around forward facing and I loved how easy it was to install with the latch system. DS#1 is now almost 4 and about to move into a booster. We will now use this seat for DS#2 when he outgrows the infant carrier....I am sad this seat will expire while DS#2 is still using it but I plan to buy another Britax for him to use. Wonderful Product!!

I spent quite some time researching car seats for our son. In short, this seat was great, we loved it and ordered another one after using it for a month or so, so that there would be one for each car. If you want all the details of why we liked or did not like it, read on.

As an infant our son used the Graco Snug Ride, which was convenient because we could get him in and out of the car easily and not wake him up while he was sleeping. But after using this one once he outgrew the Graco, at age four months (he was a tall baby), I wished we would have used this all along, even as a newborn. We tethered it to the front seat (so it is facing backward, hooked in by LATCH and tether) and it feels sooooo much more sturdy than the Snug Ride for babies. The little flaps on the side make it nice and snug even for small infants (although not preemies).

Things we like:

-Mostly, that based on research and how it seems to us, it appears to be one of the safest seats. It feels sturdy, feels like there is lots of padding, and also like it is snug. I know, of course, how it feels doesn't mean it is the safest, but to a certain extent (after the feel of the Snug Ride), I think there is something to it. I think there is a good reason that this has the reputation as the safest seat.

-I like the rubber things on the straps. It helps you make sure it is tight enough, fitting well, and straight.

-Five point harness is a plus.

-Our boy can ride in this thing until he is ready to go to a regular seat. It goes up to 65 pounds, so no need to buy booster seats.

-You don't have to rethread to change the height of the straps - thus, can adjust when coat or outfit is more or less bulky.

Things we like less:

-This is not a small seat. It does fit in our subcompact and compact car, so that is great (goes in the middle in back, rear facing). However, my husband, who is a shorter guy, can't put his seat back as far as he would like while driving. If a taller person is driving, it might be a tight fit in a subcompact or compact car. I'm not sure how it would work if we have to fit two re-facing seats in the car if/when we have another little one. So for small cars, it is a bit of a tight fit in the middle and not sure it would fit on either side.

-Sometimes it is hard to loosen or tighten the straps evenly without having to make them both completely loose and then retighten completely. Not a big deal for me, but if you aren't careful, one side can be quite tight and the other loose and then if there would be an accident, the child wouldn't be properly constrained. Just something to keep an eye on.

Overall, though A+.

Color is great, fabric is durable. It was comfortable for my girl both rear-facing and now forward-facing. We have an older car without LATCH, but this one is still so easy to secure in the car with the belt and shoulder strap. We have put it in other cars with LATCH and love that it was 2 independent LATCH straps - one on each side. It makes it so simple to tighten the seat down adequately. Now that we have another baby and are shopping for another seat, we're realizing what a great design they have.

One thing that annoys me is that the shoulder straps get stuck sometimes when I'm tightening them over my girl. I just have to re-loosen the straps and hold a bit of tension on the strap as I'm tightening it.

Transition smoothly from the car to the stroller with the Valco Baby Car seat Adaptor; wonderful for when baby is sleeping.

My son and daughter-in-law just had their first little boy. They researched like mad on every single thing they bought. They chose the Britax Infant Carrier, and I bought just the base. Now one carrier is three (yes her parents got one as well) and we can all take the baby with us! I feel absolutely 100% certain that this is the best of the best, because mom is a doctor and dad is a fireman - both deal with this issue and make recommendations to the public. So get this for your family and then get bases for all. AMAZON had the best price on these carriers.

Keep your child safe and secure on any road trip with this Stanford Distributors car seat base.

This car seat has been wonderful. We have only had the seat for a few months but the true test was a 20 hr drive to Florida and a 20 hr drive home. We drove straight through both ways and my daughter was super comfortable and HAPPY. She did great going both ways and the level of recline was perfect for her to get good sleep in the seat. We plan to use this with baby number two as well who will be joining us in the next 6 months.

The Britax Chaperone Stroller (with cowmooflage) is a great little one seater stroller. I am the father of twins, but every now and again we need to have a single stroller for Dr's appointments or shopping trips. This a perfect addition to our twin strollers (Snap&Go and Bob's jogger). First off, it is very eye catching but actually not as gaudy as I first thought it would be from the photos. It was easy to put together and I love the one-handed folding mechanism. It light and easily maneuverable. It is not ideal for jogging since the ergonomics lead to hitting your shins, but it is perfect for shopping and Drs trips. The shade comes down enough (unlike others we have tried) and it has a great storage area at the bottom that is easily accessible. The 2 cup holders and compartment on the handle is easy to clip on and perfect for drinks and keys etc.

Pros:
- Eye catching without being gaudy
- Easy to put together
- Easy to push and has a great turning mechanism
- Light and has a great one handed fold away mechanism
- Conveniently accessible storage area under the chair

Cons:
- Needs some padding for the seats

I appreciate the quality of britax products. I have several other Britax models for my 5yr, 4yr and 2yr olds. I have had some issues with them but I still like Britax. I bought the chaperone when expecting my newest addition. I researched seats endlessly for 2 months. I read the good and bad on the chaperone, but in the end I bought it for the true SIP and anti-rebound bar.
I was concerned about the seat and base fitting in my vehicle. It works, though the front seat is moved forward some in my Chrysler Town and Country. One major flaw I found with the base is the adjustable leveling foot that is used to achieve the proper recline for the seat. The seat in my minivan is a captain's chair, therefore, there is a significant angle to the seat that has to be overcome for proper carrier recline. The problem for me was that when the foot is nearly fully extended down, it caused the base to become very unstable. The base could then slide side to side too easily. This foot is not the same quality as the base, in my opinion. I rectified this by not using the foot and instead using a pool noodle for leveling.
I will say that the seat is 3-4 pounds heavier than many other carriers. At first it was no big deal, but as baby grows, the weight along with the longer size of the seat can at times be a burden. Because the seat is longer, it is also sometimes an effort to maneuver through doorways at stores if there isn't anyone to hold the door for you.
Also, the longer size of the carrier does cause the top head end to fall backwards both with and without baby in it. I have to put the seat up against something (wall or in a chair# while strapping baby in.
As for the newborn insert, it was useful for about two weeks. But my son was born just shy of 7 pounds and it still seemed to make it more difficult #tight) to strap him in.
The release button for the tightening strap located under the material between the legs can be difficult to locate blindly with the fingers, as it seems to be set a little too far back. But not too big a deal.
The canopy covers about half the carrier and has velcro tabs at the head end. My complaint would be that it does'nt always stay in place, and when extended it does get in the way of the carry handle.
When removing the carrier from the base you do have to pull straight up. This is not a problem for me in my minivan.
The carrier drops into the base with ease for me.
The strap height adjustment is easy to use. And it is also very easy to strap my son into the seat as well as to take him out. I am however, somewhat concerned about the seat width, as my son grows it may become a squeeze as my children tend to be well filled out!
I have the cow print Chaperone. At first I

After doing so much research, the Britax brand seemed to be the best option for us. Britax was rated one of the best car seats for the Honda Accord (which is what we have) so I started comparing the different Britax models. Since we live with limited storage space in the city, I went straight for the convertible style car seat, rather than starting off with the detachable infant seat with base style. Less "stuff" in our lives!

My daughter was born 8 lbs-9 oz and it worked really well for her starting from the trip home from the hospital. The fabric is incredibly soft and easily cleans up even after she had an "exorcist spit-up moment"! The seat itself is really comfortable. Our daughter falls asleep virtually everytime she is in her car seat. It has also worked well on long road trips to grandpa and grandma's house. I really like the button to release or tighten the straps - makes for easy adjustments since babies grow so fast and the spring weather makes for different clothing layers day to day. The velcro on the straps is so helpful to keep the straps in place while putting our daughter in her car seat - no digging underneath her to find them!

This car seat is a bit higher in price than other options, but it has been well worth it for us. Although we cannot comment on its effectiveness during an auto accident, we are very happy with the quality of this car seat. More importantly our daughter loves it as well!
