Can someone clarify the differences between the Britax Convertibles, please?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
As I continue my car seat research, I find I am not clearly able to discern the differences between the various Britax models. I got the Boulevard, because in the picture the head rest looked cozy to me. Once I got it and tried it, I realized that while I do like the place the head actually rests, I do not like the side things that protrude.
So I am looking through the various websites that sell the different Britax Car seats, and am having a hard time understanding the pros and cons of the various models. I find that I am looking at just the head rests in the picture, but I iam sure there are other differences too.

So can someone help me clearly understand the differences, and also pros and cons of each type of Britax convertible?
thanks a lot!

You'll go crosseyed looking at all the britax convertibles Especially since right now you can find the old classic ones and the new ones too.

That said- IMO (as someone who has LOVED the brand in the past and has a total of 5 britax seats currently between all the cars my kids ride in) I wouldn't buy a britax convertible.

DS would have already outgrown the new ones by height rf and he's not even 2.5 yet. Not acceptable.

How old is your child? How tall/heavy? Rear facing, I assume? Perhaps the friendly folk around here can help you find the perfect seat!

Yes -- any reason you're limiting your search to Britax? You can get seats with equivalent capacity for far less money, or far more capacity for the same (or less) money.

I am looking at lots of different brands. I have actually been ordering and returning a few different ones from dipaers.com and target, because I find that the only way for me to find a seat that works for our family is to actually try it.

I have tired: True Fit, maxi Cosi, and the britax boulevard so far.
I have on order the Graco myride and the graco comfort sport!

And right now I am exploring the Britax's so that is why I am trying to understand the differences between them. I did like some aspects of the britx blvd and so I am considering trying one more britax and am trying to understand the differences!
Are htey clearly defined? thanks!
