I LOVE this car seat!!
June 17, 2011
We ordered this car seat for our daughter who just turned 1. She is 18 lbs and petite. I knew what to expect from Britax because we already have a Boulevard for our 2 1/2 year old...but when I opened the box the seat looked big and I was really worried that my daughter would be "lost" in it. It fit her perfectly. She looks so safe and snug in this seat. I absolute LOVE the pattern. For the record, the "pink" in the pattern is more like a red but its gorgeous. I really wish we would've went with this model for our older daughter. Unlike the Boulevard, this seat stores the lower latch connectors (attatches to bars in your car) if they're not in use. They actually click onto the back of the seat. Also, on the Boulevard you turn a crank to adjust the headrest/seatbelts, on this model you just squeeze the handle on top of the headrest and it goes up or down with ease. This seat also has nicer fabric and shoulder strap pads. I still use the infant body pillow for my 1 year old, but when she doesn't need it anymore, it comes right out. Also, this model has a deeper head rest than the Boulevard. I like this seat alot better, but either is great for a sleeping toddler. Albeebaby had the BEST price for this seat too. I checked with all of the "big name" baby stores and I would've paid $100 more than I paid for this seat from this site. It also shipped super fast. I think Albeebaby is located in New Jersey. I live in PA and ordered it on a Friday and on Tuesday UPS was here dropping it off. All in all, this seat is a little big, but it's so safe and easy to use.
Pros
- Cute pattern
- Best quality
- So easy to use
- Great buy on this site($100 more at baby stores)
