Britax Parkway Review Summary

Need a booster seat to still keep your older child safe? Made for children 30-100 pounds the Britax Parkway is a booster seat that uses the vehicle seat belt as a restraint instead of a 5-point harness. Reviewers agree the Britax Parkway is “one of the best car seats on the market” as well as “one of the cheapest Britax seats available.” The Britax Parkway is safe and comfortable with a side-impact headrest, which is great for little ones who may fall asleep in the car. In addition to the safety features the Britax Parkway is “super easy to install and very light” making it a great fit for any vehicle especially “to put in the back of a little sports car.” To make a comparison of the Parkway’s quality check out other booster seat reviews here.

My husband and I were desperate to find a seat that would fit in the back of his Porsche 911.  This is not a car that we driver frequently, more like a weekend joy ride we take sometimes...but my 3.5 year old son is obsessed with it!  He was so sad when we could not bring him along on our little drives... read full review »

I purchased the Britax Brownstone Parkway in April of 2007.  I drive a Yukon XL, so my Britax Marathon car seats fit fine.  When our oldest daughter got a car, we had to purchase booster seats, as the Marathons were way too wide for 3 of them to fit in the back of her Infiniti G35.  With 1 Marathon...

I Love, Love, Love the britax parkway seat and so do my two sons, ages 6 and 3.  In fact they both fought over the one parkway when the 3 year old was still in the Britax Marathon- so I had to go out and buy an additional Britax Parkway for the three year old.  The Britax parkway is very good for the head rest, which holds the boys' heads if they doze off and is actually comfortable, The cover is washable, very easy to remove and doesn't fade like most other seats. The cup holder is not the best invention, should be taller so drinks do not spill, but we do not use it much anyway. Also in turns...

Great car seat-- for a child over 2

I did a lot of research upfront to find a find a booster seat that was good for a child over forty pounds but only 2-3 years old. This car seat consistently came up in my searches as one of the best car seats on the market. I have to admit, that I liked the pricetag of $100 (one of the cheapest Britax seats available) and I loved the fact that it was super easy to install and very light (even for a light weight mom like me!) So, I quickly ran to the store and picked one up. It met all of my expectations. It was in fact easy to install, it was normal colors/patterns, it was extra light weight, lean... read full review »

Britax Parkway is the best booster carseat hands down!

We purchased two of these car seats about a year ago, before we made a cross country road trip.  I thoroughly investigated all kinds of car seats online and finally decided on this one for two reasons.  One we needed one that would comfortably accommodate my 5 and 7 year old.  The second reason was for the wrap around head support.  I knew that there would be lots of dozing off on that trip, and wanted their neck supported, and for them to be comfortable.  Let me just say, I have recommended this carseat to many people.  The wrap around head support really does keep their heads upright. ... read full review »

I found this car seat on sale on amazon.com for around $50.  Bought it because of the price and I knew that Britax has good products.  I am so very pleased with this seat: High quality, good safety ratings, easy to change to different cars, easy to strap in child, and cute design.  My little guy calls it his "big boy seat" and he loves it too!  It is sure to last several years for him.  I would highly recommend this seat to any of my friends, especiallly if you find it on sale!

Britax seems to be the leader in making carseats or booster seats safe with the side impact foam they use on the head rest.  Plus that head rest gives my 3 year old a place to lay his head on when he falls asleep so that he does get a crick in his neck.  It's very light weight and easy to install.  I wouldn't buy anything else but this booster seat.

This booster seat is amazing. It has three different settings. I keep the back on for long trips. And for short trips you can take the back off. and it has cup holders so i am not always losing sippy cups. It is comfortable and they come in different colors

There is nothing more important than the safety of your little ones when riding in the car.  Car accidents are the leading cause of death for kids.  I am somewhat of a self-proclaimed 'car seat nazi'.   My daughter, who is 7 now, rode in a Britax Roundabout and then went to Britax Husky.  She's still in the Husky and will be until she doesn't fit any longer.  Of course, in other cars, she rides in boosters, but we also love the Britax Parkway booster.   Britax seats in general can be spendy but it's one thing that even the bargain shopper in me, wouldn't overlook.  I looked for sales...

Wow!  I purchased the Britax Parkway carseat a few months ago and have to say this is the BEST carseat I have ever seen!  My daughter just loves it!  The seat is extremely comfortable, with high head rests so that my daughter's head does not bob from side to side when she falls asleep in the car.  The color schemes are classy and fun and color coordinate with most interiors.  I really did alot of research when picking out this car seat and found this one to have the best reviews.  Even though this seat was a bit pricier than others I researched, I found the quality of it was worth every penny...

I purchased this Britax car seat 2 months before my baby was born. I was looking for comfort,and style but most important SAFETY. I researched and felt that The Britax was the safest on the market. I am very pleased with my purchase and have received several inquiries from friends and family whom have children. Britax has a great reputation and are known for quality and safety. I highly recommend this one to anyone having a baby or even a gift for someone at a baby shower. You will not be dissapointed. Britax can be purchased at most baby stores....such as Babies r us as well as more high end department... read full review »

I have had this seat for about three years now and I still love it.  My six year old daughter still fits perfectly in it.  I love that the headrest supports her head when she falls asleep.  Its comfortable for her and I feel comfortable with her in it.  Its light-weight and easy to switch cars with.  I have the cowmooflauge and I would recommend it.  I get lots of compliments.

Two cons are the cupholders aren't that deep and the headrest "foam" broke about 6 months ago.  Other than that I love it.

I love the ease of use and protection this booster has given us on the road.  These seats have grown with my daughters since they went out of an infant seat.  The Parkway seat is comfortable and has an outstanding safety record.  Definitely worth the price!!

This is so comfortable, or so says my son.  He would rather ride in this one, than  the other one we own.  We have been so impressed with all the Briax items we've bought.
