We asked around a lot before buying our carseat and everyone we trusted said Britax was the best.  Then at the store, the salesperson basically said the same thing, even though other models were more expensive.  We've been very happy with it.  Our daughter doesn't really like being in her carseat, but then again a lot of babies don't.  She's not one to be confined (never liked being swaddled, etc.).  But as far as safety is concerned, we feel very confident about it.  If installed well, it basically won't move.  We've borrowed other carseats while travelling and just didn't feel as confident about them.  They didn't seem to fit as securely in the back seat and didn't have all the safety features of the Britax.  I really like the fact that the shade can detatch from the back and slide forward.  It makes it much easier for me to reach back there and soothe my daughter if necessary, especially since she is still rear-facing.  It is also good on hot days, because it allows the air to circulate through.
