Perfect Choice!!!
Reviewer: Catherine H. , Columbus, OH

I did a LOT of research when it came to choosing this car seat. My number one specification was safety. And really- what's safer than this Britax Chaperone for your baby?
I read a lot of reviews saying that the seat wouldn't fit in people's cars due to the anti-rebound bar making the base longer than other bases. I called Britax directly to ask about this issue and was told that there is a little bit more "hang" room alloted due to the anti-rebound bar. With the seat installed in my car, it only hangs over by about 2 inches, so it isn't an issue for me (thank goodness!).
The "cowmooflauge" pattern is incredibly cute.
I have yet to actually use it, seeing as how our baby is due at the end of Sept.
But- I've tried it out in the double stroller we'll be using with my daughter in it and it's GREAT!
Yes, it's heavy. But wouldn't you rather have your baby in something that actually feels more stable, and therefore more secure, than something that's lighter and truly feels like "cheap" plastic?
Overall- I could NOT be more satisfied with this car seat!!!
And I only gave it 4 stars as opposed to 5 simply because I haven't actually used it for my baby yet!

BRITAX CAR SEAT
Reviewer: WENDIE , NEW YORK, NY

THIS IS A GREAT INFANT CAR SEAT. IT'S A GOOD SIZE FOR A MINI VAN AND SEAT ATTACHES TO BASE NICELY. IT IS VERY SAFE. HOWEVER, ONCE YOUR BABY STARTS TO GROW AROUND 17LBS AND WEARING WINTER COATS THE SEAT SEAMS UNCOMFORTABLE/SMALL FOR CHILD. DIFFICULTY STRAPING BABY W/ COAT ON. THE BOTTOM SAFETY STRAP DOES NOT EXPAND IT IS HARD TO BUCKLE AT TIMES.

Perfect infant car seat

I love this infant seat. I used the Graco Snugride prior to getting this seat and it never felt installed safely because there was so much "flop". But with the way Britax added the extra bar to the base, the seat fits much more secure with just a tiny wiggle. And my newborn fits snugly into the seat without additional accessories. I could adjust the straps to her height in seconds without having to rethread the straps. Another great feature is the strap tightenng feature- with the push of a button I can loosen the straps to remove her and then just pull one simple strap to retighten when I put her in the next time. I love love love this seat!

Great seat but REALLY big

I wish I could have used this car seat! It was very high quality and much nicer than anything else I had seen. It fit perfectly into the Baby Trend Snap n Go stroller and was also compatible with the Bob Stroller I want. However, it is WAY too big for my car. I have a Hyundai Santa Fe and it just wouldn't fit properly. Very disappointing but a great car seat if it will fit your car!

Very sturdy
Reviewer: Beth , Big Rapids, MI

I was so excited to see Britax making an infant carrier seat. My baby is due in October and I just purchased this. I inserted the foam newborn insert for babies less than 11lbs, so I should be ready to go. I love the way Britax latch works so easily, that is the main reason I purchased this brand. The only thing is that I cannot get the car seat in my Sienna minivan with the level bubble in the correct range. Even though the base adjusts up and down, I need the back portion to go up a significant amount. I am going to contact Britax or go to one of those car seat check places. But it is very sturdy and well made... It looks terrific!
