Baby Products Reviews of Britax Roundabout Convertible Car Seat New Denim
Customer Review: Finally a Lifesaver!
Summary: 5 Stars
I researched over and over on the internet and everywhere else for the perfect car seat and after reading all the great reviews on this Britax Roundabout I wasted not another minute and ordered it right away. Of course I was nervous if it was just another let down but to my surprise it's Great! The velcro seat belts really help when trying to put baby in car seat. I can actually see out my back window because like all others I tried this one fits in my small chevy aveo perfect. My baby loves it.
Thank you Thank you Thank you.
Go out and get yourself one of these!
Customer Review: Hardly Any Complaints -- Soft Cover, Reliable, and Easy to Use!
Summary: 4 Stars
This has proven a good, sturdy car seat for baby, and we look forward to using it for a loooong time -- it can face both backwards and forwards, so we won't need to buy two car seats for her.
Since we didn't plan on carrying her around in a car seat at all, this was the car seat for us.
The only thing was that when she was smaller, we couldn't figure out a way to make the seat recline a little more for her (that could be the way our seats are -- we have a '97 Audi station wagon), so we ended up sticking a swimming noodle underneath it. This probably isn't company-advised, but it did work for us; it wouldn't have prevented us choosing this car seat even had we known the reclining issue ahead of time.
My sister-in-law used the same seat with her son, and her only complaint was that you can't buy a new cover separately -- so if you ever need to wash it, you just have to wait (and I believe you need to hang-dry it). This hasn't been an issue for us, at least not yet, as we haven't had to wash it.
It's also made of really soft material, and the straps are very quickly adjustable -- I can't stress how important that aspect is, living in Colorado where the morning will require a snowsuit for baby, and then by mid-afternoon it's almost fifty degrees!
Customer Review: Amazing Car Seat
Summary: 5 Stars
Like the other purchasers who have reviewed, we did a LOT of research before picking this car seat. The safety ratings and reputation of Britax made the difference for us. Some of our friends have used other Britax models, and they all loved them. We purchased one for each of our cars and they have been great. Easy to adjust as our daughter has grown and still comfortable for her. This is really a great car seat.Customer Review: Perfect Size Car Seat
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this after my oldest daughter told me how great Britax car seats were and that this one was the perfect size - Not so big that it takes up the whole back seat, but plenty big for the kids. We still have our 15 mo. old granddaughter facing backwards in the back seat. I love this so much that I also bought another one for my second daughter to use in her car. And this one was very affordable as well. We couldn't be happier.Customer Review: Save yourself headaches, buy this seat
Summary: 5 Stars
I SWEAR by this seat.
We purchased this seat and a Graco as our daughter's next step up from an infant seat and I can say that I truly wish we had just bought two Roundabouts. Why? The Graco has a mangle of straps that make it very difficult to adjust and that was huge. My wife and I would fight over who got to have the Roundabout in our car (She won, of course).
About the only thing I'd say is that Britax Roundabout 50 Convertible Car Seat - Onyx might be a better buy if you have a full sized vehicle or have a child that is tall for their age (the 50 has a bit more room.
If you're a new parent, I encourage you to read all the reviews and when you go shopping think through the 3-5 things you're going to be doing with that car seat every day for a couple of years. Also bear in mind that you'll have to accomplish those 3-5 steps with a kid in your arms (sometimes a screaming kid).
PROS:
- Very easy to adjust straps (this is HUGE!!!)
- Tilts back
- Very well constructed (will last for years)
- Made in USA too!
- Latch Installation makes installation easy
- It's forward and backward facing (so grows with your kid)
CONS:
- Literally None that I could find....this seat rocks
- Oh, it is pricey but you do get what you pay for.
Notice: Please read all instructions on the proper installation of this product - it's a life and death situation (be thorough) or have your seat professionally installed. I think most Firestations or Police Stations will do either a free installation or a free verification that you've done it right.
