Britax Roundabout 55 Convertible Car Seat - Berkley

Comments about Britax Roundabout 55 Convertible Car Seat - Berkley:

We really like this carseat for our older infant. She is very tall and outgrew her infant carrier at 8 months. We have used this for a couple months now, and it is very comfortable for her. I know it will not last comfortably past 4 years old, and I wouldn't see it for a newborn, but it is really awesome for an older child, toddler, and preschooler. Of course, we picked it for the Britax safety name as well. When my little one falls asleep her head is cradled comfortably and she never has that horrible baby head roll that happens with other seats when they are asleep. We recently drove to TN for vacation on a 4+ hour trip and she was comfy and slept 2/3 of the way. It was easy for my husband to install in our minivan rear-facing, and leaves room for a woman driver without touching the driver seat, but would probably push up against the driver seat for a taller than average man. We were waiting to see how we liked it for my car to decide on another for my husband's car, and we have decided to get one for his as well because of the price, comfort, and safety.

I like this carseat compared to the evenflo we used to have but it is so hard to adjust the straps. I have to get my husband to do it for me. Not to mention if you have to move the straps up a notch. It is a pain. I am really considering buying another car seat of a different brand.

This was the 2nd cars eat I tried and it was easy to install and didn't move with the rubber bottom.

Good construction, ease of use, and extremely secure. We bought two of these, one for my car and one for my wife's. I was able to adjust the straps and install both in about 20 minutes using the latch system. Nice thing about this car seat is the Versa tether, which is an extra securing strap at the top of the car seat. It allows you to secure the top portion of the seat whether its facing front or back (most newer cars have a securing point in the floor board for backward facing, but, as we did, you can secure it to the seat mount which should be bolted to the floor). Instructions are easy to follow and well illustrated. Straps work fluidly and have adjustable shoulder padding so the little one is comfortable. Overall padding is firm yet comfortable. Seat cover seams to be well made and comes off easily for cleaning.

We bought this carseat for our oldest 3 years ago and he loved it. Our 10 month old outgrew his travel seat much earlier and we got him this seat as well and we loves it. It's comfy enough for him to nap in the car. And his big brother loves that they have the same chair.

Easy to install from one car to another using either the latch system or the lap or lap/shoulder seatbelt.

We first purchased this same car seat for our now 2 1/2 year old about a year ago. Our 10 month old is already too long for his infant car seat, so it was time to transition him to another car seat. We love how safe and secure our babies seem in this car seat. Plus our 10 month old now falls asleep in the car!!! YAY!! This is the 3rd Britax in our family and would definitely buy them again!!

This is our third Britax car seat and, while it's not big on bells and whistles, I always feel confident my child is safe. It is comfortable enough and roomy enough for my 2 1/2 year old. The only complaint I have is that it is more difficult to loosen the seat belt than our other Britax. Once we get used to it, I'm sure it will be fine.

We struggled to find a narrow convertible carseat that would fit in the backseat of any vehicle rear facing. This one fits great and doesnt take up half of the neighboring seat. We just switched our 11 month old daughter over to it and she didnt even seem to notice a difference. According to my husband it was fairly easy to install (he went to the firestation). The adjustments work well with one exception: the latch to loosen the shoulder straps and remove the baby from the seat is a bit difficult to access. Esspecially compared to the Peg Perego we just switched from. Otherwise, no complaints. It is roomy enough that my daughter's legs barely hit the seat, making it very comfy for rear facing.

We have the newer Britax, but needed a 2nd one for our two cars. For some reason, my infant son is much more comfortable in this style, even though it's an older model. It's wider and fits better in our truck, and he seems to be reclining in a better position. The new Britax (marathon 70 I believe) is more upright and narrower. This was on sale too, so we didn't have to spend $300 which was great. Would buy this model again definitely.

This car seat was the one I picked out after not being to thrilled with our infant seat...That seat was difficult to use because our baby is a big boy and needed more room. I was always digging into his sides to get the clips and latches and he always cried in it. With this seat, he wants to give me a high five cause he loves it and it's so comfortable and easy to use. I am so happy I went back and got it! Also, I was informed during my purchase about the extra safety features that the Britax models have and I was sold!
