Britax Roundabout Review

I bought my Britax Roundabout back in 2005.  It was the top rated carseat in "Consumer Reports" and I completely agree.  The carseat itself is extremely well-padded.  My kids never complain about being uncomfortable.   The fabric itself is very durable -- it looks the same now as it did 4 years (and 2 kids) ago!

But more importantly, the police officer who installed it for me told me that this is the only carseat he will let his kids ride in.  There is an extra strap in the back which gives the Britax carseats an extra level of security.  That strap can also make it a pain in the neck to move from car-to-car, so I suggest that you pick which car you want to have the Britax installed into and then just leave it.

The 5-point harness sometimes gets twisted, but it's relatively easy to fix.

The Britax carseats are definitely not the cheapest ones in the market, but who wants to penny-pinch when it comes to such a clear difference in safety.
