  Britax = "Recalls-R-Us"

  by stringtheory, Jan 01, 2009

  Pros: --Looks Good --5-Point Restraint in a Booster Seat Cons: --Thin straps that twist --Requires constant re-jiggering each time seat is used --Constant safety recalls

  The Bottom Line: Wait to buy until: (1) Britax works out the safety bugs (2 years) and (2) puts thicker straps on the seat so that they do not twist constantly.

  Huge = safe for a reason

  great seat--once you get it in, plan to keep it in

  by skjones396, Sep 09, 2008

  Pros: comfortable, side impact protection Cons: hard install, straps twist

  The Bottom Line: Buy it, it's well constructed--it's a Britax; it is the best big-kid 5-point harness option, it has side impact protection. Just don't plan to move it around--ever.
  Review: I read all of the reviews on this seat and was prepared for a tough install, but not that prepared!... More

  A cocoon of safety

  by nickmaddiesmom, Jul 01, 2008

  Pros: Well-built, worth the $$, Plenty of protection from all angles, Easy to install. Cons: Dark covering heats up in the sun. Cumbersome if it was toted around an airport.

  Review: I got into a minor accident with the Decathalons and since the insurance covers new carseats, I chos... More
