    The BRITAX BOULEVARD 70 CS convertible car seat is designed for children rear facing from 5 to 40 pounds and forward facing from 1 year and 20 lbs up to 70 pounds. The BOULEVARD 70 CS achieves revolutionary head safety through the use of BRITAX SafeCellTM Technology, integrated steel bars, and Versa-Tether that work together to minimize head excursion and reduce the risk of head injury during a frontal impact.

Britax Boulevard CS
August 22, 2012
Love Britax and there car seats. I purchased same style for my son a couple of years ago and wouldn't select anything but. Just in 2 years time since I last purchased they made some changes that made it even easier to set up and easier to use.
Pros
  • I love the CS function. When you pull the strap tight you hear a clicking sound letting you know that you have achieved correct tightness.
  • Also much easier to recline the car seat if needed. Easy placement of lever and quick & easy.
Cons
  • The new car seat seems to be a little wider.

Love this car seat! Super comfortable and safe for my daughter. She was about 14 months when I purchased it and she is 16 months now. No complaints at all.
Pros
  • Easy to clean. Easy to use the harness with clicking sound to let you know it is snug enough.

My daughter is so happy with her new car seat! We had the basic boulevard and she survived a really bad car accident because of the chair security. I highly recommend this chair!

Pros
  • Easy to install and remove.
  • Easy to adjust straps, loosen and tighten.
  • Plush. Very comfortable and great material.
  • Easy to clean.
  • Safe and stylish.

Well worth the money!!

We purchased this seat and an evenflo at the same time. This particular one stays in my car and we use it when we go on trips. It is rather large, but fits in the middle of the backseat of my Jeep Liberty. My only complaint is the straps sometimes manage to get twisted up and it is a fight if you're in any kind of a hurry. It's seems really sturdy and well worth the money in my opinion. The fabric is awesome too! Had it for 4 month and no stains show up yet! Plus I like having things different from everyone else and I haven't seen any other moms I know with this print.
Pros
  • Fabric design, ease of adjustment, easy to install, isn't scorching hot in the summertime when you go to put your child in it
Cons
  • The straps twist up occasionally

Worth every cent!

We are extremely happy with this seat. Our daughter now 18 months loved it from day one. She would climb in it while it was sitting near the door and loves going in the car. I have a 96 Honda civic sedan and it fits in the back seat rear facing with enough room for someone to sit in the front seat.
Pros
  • My daughter loves it.
  • Its easy to install with the clips and with practice the seat belt method is doable.
  • Its very easy to clean crumbs out, just flip the seat upside down and shake a little.
Cons
  • Its heavy and impossible to lift with a sleeping child in it.
  • It doesn't have a level on it so you have to use a line and visual compare to the seat, can be confusing.

I'm very happy with this purchase. I feel like this car seat is made well and is stylish. It's alot more comfortable for her to sit in, compared with our other carseat(she complains less in this carseat ) And I like that the straps have a clicking feature so you know when there is a proper amount of tention, making it safer. It was more expensive than other seats we looked at but I feel like it was worth the money. We would definatly reccoment it to others.
Pros
  • comfortable
  • stylish
  • good saftey ratings
  • well made
Cons
  • expensive

Love it, should of bought it a long time ago.
May 28, 2012
I researched car seats for 6 months. I kept going back and forth about how expensive this was. Of course, you can't put a price on your child's saftey but I didn't really know if I was just paying for the name. Well we bought another brand name car seat because the reviews were just as good. My daughter cried everytime we got into the car since I had gotten her that seat, so I broke down and ordered the britax because I had read how comfortable it was. Wow, you can see the difference right away. The quality of the seat is amazing. It has a lot of padding, so she is now very comfy. I feel like my daughter is so safe in this seat. I just wish I had bought it sooner. Love the sophia print too, its so pretty. Shipping from Albee Baby was so quick! Great company plus this is the lowest price I could find & I looked alot.
Pros
  • sturdy
  • safe
  • comfy
  • pretty
Cons
  • have to buy cup holder separate

I paid full price a year ago and love it and would do the same again. It holds up so well w/ spills and all things toddler that might happen to it! Plus if you re-sell all the fashion conscious Mommy's will love the pattern. It's really beautiful!
Cons
  • Just wish straps could attach w/ the velcro farther out b/c when you put little ones in they get in the way...but over all no big deal.

A little difficult to install, but once installed it is great. Easy to adjust straps. Beautiful color. I wouldn't recommend moving it from car to car.

My son has an older version of the Blvd 70 CS and I have to say this newer version has made some great improvements. #1 improvement - It's easier to adjust the shoulder strap height. Still love Britax and this seat.
Pros
  • Easy to install, easy to adjust
Cons
  • Nothing

Great carseat and great price

Delivery was prompt and product arrived in perfect condition. It is the cutest pattern, and I love the adjustable-height headpiece (which was not an option for my previous Britax carseats) that will provide more head support as my toddler grows taller. Great buy, i have gotten 3 out of 4 of my Britax carseats from Albee Baby.The 4th one i got from Babies R' Us which was way more expensive and they onlyhad a limited selection of patterns.

I love this seat. So much that I'm thinking of buying my son one to replace his. It's easy to install, and I just LOVE the velcro that holds the straps in place so you can seat your child. The straps never twist and they are super comfy looking.

My daughter enjoys riding in this car seat as opposed to her infant car seat. I like the harness adjusters! So much easier to make comfy for her that her infant car seat. It's a very sturdy seat as well. Her safety is well worth this price!
Pros
  • Looks
  • Safety
  • Harness Adjuster

My daughter loves her new big girl seat! She now falls asleep almost all the time! As before she did not like being in her car seat she would cry more times than not. She fits in the seat so wonderfully!We are very happy with this car seat! I did lots and lots of research to see which seat would be the best for our daughter! The seat was little different to install than the Marathon but figured it out.
Pros
  • Love the way my daughter fits in the seat, colors and style.
Cons
  • The straps get twisted easily.

So far we really like it.
January 22, 2012
We have only been using this seat for a month, but so far it has been a very nice transition from our carrier. We move it back and forth between my vehicle and my husband's quite often and with ease. Hopefully, it will stand the test of time!
Pros
  • Padding, easy to install, very secure, the C&S, the velcro tabs to hold the straps
Cons
  • Hard for get to see anything while rear facing, although, pretty sure that's with every rear facing convertable.

Almost perfect

I have a Boulevard CS from 2010, and this one from 2011. I love this car seat (both models), but my only complaint is how the straps are adjusted. On the 2010 they adjust with a winding knob on the side, with this one they adjust at the top. It is much harder to get a good fit this way. Other than that, I love my seat.

I LOVE this carseat and so does my daughter. We purchased it when she was about 7 months old and now she is 15 months and we still love it. I don't regret this purchase at all. It is an adorable pattern, comfy for her to sit in, and I love that I can adjust it without taking it out of the car. The clicking mechanism is very helpful and the straps never get twisted. It is a very sturdy carseat and I feel very confident with her in it. My only con is that I wish the straps were a bit longer as when she has many layers on or has a puffy dress or coat it is a very tight fit.
Pros
  • Adorable pattern
  • easy install
  • sturdy and easy to use
Cons
  • wish the straps were a little longer

I have the same seat we bought for my son in2009. We love that one, but they seemed to have improved the seat a lot. The head support is easy to adjust along with the recline. The color is my favorite part and my daughter sleeps in it like a champ.

Great seat but picture doesn't show color accurately
April 25, 2011
I love this seat. We have an older Boulevard for our son, now 4. I thought I would comment on the color as the picture doesn't really show it very accurately. It looks like a greyish tan in the picture but in reality the seat is Grey. The pink is a very pretty icey (but still bright) pink. Maybe I am the only one that thought the color looked different in the picture, but just in case I thought I would share...

EXCELLENT CAR SEAT!
February 18, 2011
This car seat is great!! It is on the heavy side, but thats only because of all the safety features, such as the steel bars. This pattern is very cute and the seat is also very comfortable. I ordered it last Saturday and it said it wouldn't ship until March, but I just got it the other day! WOW! Thanks Albee Baby for the great price on this seat and the fast delivery. I am very pleased with the seat and Albee Baby!
Pros
  • TONS OF SAFETY FEATURES
  • COMFORTABLE
  • STYLISH
