    We love Britax products and really like this car seat. It is really big as other customers have said. It fits perfectly in our car with the back seat - seat back reclined a little. We also have the Britax Decathalon which we will continue to use for our younger child. You can't go wrong with Britax products. My only wish is that the Regent could be airline approved, but it is way to big to fit on an airplane.

    We love this carseat so much that we have one for both of our children! Last year I was in a car wreck with my 3 year old we T-boned another car going about 40mph. My daughter didn't have a scratch on her and she never even cried! Our '07 Odyssey's frame was so crunched we couldn't get the sliding doors open, but she never knew! I cannot say enough good things about this carseat. Most people that see them in their car seats call it the recliner because of it is so comfy looking. I recommend this carseat to all of my friends. It is super easy to adjust and cleaning the cover is just as easy! If you are looking for a safe carseat you cannot go wrong with this one!

    This is a great seat! We bought our first seat when my 2 year old was 38 lbs and to tall for the 5pt harness in the Alpha Omega Elite seat he had. I did a lot of research and at the time (2007) this was the only seat on the market that had a 5 pt harness until 80lbs, so for me there was little choice. We purchased the seat and my son loves it. We ended up buying a second one for my husband's car (b/c still far to young for a booster seat). It fit great both in my mini van and my husband's 2002 Honda Civic. Since the original purchase we have had a second child and are currently looking to buy another for our 16 month old. This seat is VERY easy to install, i have never had any issues with it, it stands up well to the abuse my child puts it through. It is also one of the top seats safety wise (like all britax seats are).

    We have a large 2 1/2 year old son and my younger son is about to turn one and it was time to purchse a front facing car seat. We are a Britax family based on their superb reputation for safety and we have been very happy with our Britax marathon car seat. We decided to stick with britax and go for the Regent as we knew this was the last seat we would ever have to buy for my older son. With all of the safety reports recommending 5 point harness instead of booster seats as they get older, I was especially pleased that this seat would take us all the way up to 80 pounds. So we passed the Marathon along to my younger son and purchased the Regent as our secnd seat. Truth be told it is not that much bigger than the marathon and fits perfectly in my Honda Odyssey and Volvo XC90. Installation sounded a lot harder in the manual than it actually was and we had it installed in 10 minutes with the LATCH system.Best of all, my son loves his new "big boy chair" and loves the pockets for storing his toys, blankie, etc. I would definitely recommend this seat.

    We have big boys and went through cars seats rather quickly. I discovered the regent and fell in love! I feel like my boys are safe and they are able to be in this seat for many more years. my boys are 3 and 6 and love how comfortable these seats are. I think like all Britax products I have purchased they are well worth the money.

    Customer Buzz
    This is the best car seat for bigger kids out there; it goes up to 80 lbs and, if your are looking for a quality, secured, and comfortable ride for your kid this is the one you need!!!!!!! you won't be disappointed.

    Customer Buzz
    My daughter has been using this for a year and she likes it a lot. Big, comfort and safe. I am buying another one for my 16-month old next month in the big Britaz annual sale.

    Customer Buzz
    Loved it. After reading every review on forward facing car seats and watching every horrific video out there on the benefits of the 5 pt harness, we bought this for our little girl. Well worth the money. It seems so much more secure than the rear facing infant seat we had her in (even though it was the top rated one per Consumer Reports).
    She likes it too. She doesn't scream as much as she used to (she's always had an aversion to car seats), but that may be because she enjoys facing forward.
    I was concerned about the size, but we have a mid siz SUV and although it is a tight squeeze, we can still fit in 2 adults in the back seat with her.
    We were lucky enough to have snagged the car seat at a super low price with free S&H, so the cost issue wasn't an issue at all.

    Customer Buzz
    I bought this car seat because the 5-point harness straps are higher than the Graco Nautilius. It is so huge, my son has very little leg room. Same issue in both my 04 Grand Prix and 08 Uplander van. I have no idea how he will be able to use this in a year or two. The other cons are it is hard to install and expensive. Even the car seat technicians had trouble installing it.

    Customer Buzz
    I am very diappointed that the Britax Regent or Frontier does not work with older vechicles. I have a 98 Grand Prix and my car is not equipped with the top tether. I was told by Britax that this seat would not work in my vechicle and you HAD to use the top tether. So there went my two options for a 5point harness up to 80 pounds...

    Does anyone use this seat without the top tether?

We shopped very carefully for a carseat for our son, and once he outgrew the infant seat (Graco SnugRide), we looked to Baby 411's gear guide to see what rated best. This carseat was the winner.

My son is a tad small for his age, but he rides like the king of the backseat when he's in his carseat. This carseat is washable, I can say that for sure! Our son is 3 and eats snacks frequently in it, and we just wipe it down with a baby wipe. Bigger spills can be taken care of by removing the straps and cover, which is easy to do. It's well-padded, cushy, and I feel that the "wings" around the head-area keep my kiddo safer.

The only problem we've had is, it's BIG. We drive a BMW 325i and now that his legs are getting longer, my son is getting a little cramped. With my husband's seat pushed back (when husband drives) it's a tight fit.

Shop around for the best deals on this seat: don't wait until you MUST have one, and you'll have time to sort through the different prices.

Customer Buzz
Britax carseats are super easy to install, and are very comfortable for the baby. I definitely recommend them, and they are worth the money.

Customer Buzz
My family is a Britax family, we have 3 different seats. I would say this is one of the best seats of the Britax family. It gives us plenty of room for my one year old now and can easily see her in this for the many years to come. My three year old has sat in it and still has plenty of room.

She is still currently rear facing, just turned 1 and is only 22 pounds. Will probably keep her rear facing for a little longer, she still doesn't mind getting in it. She often falls asleep as soon as we get down the road.

The fabric is very cute and soft.

Customer Buzz
This carseat is great. I've used it for two boys so far and it's held up fantastic. It's comfy, easy to use, easy to clean and best of all, Safe! I love the length of rear facing.

Customer Buzz
It is a great car seat.
It was expensive (compared to other brands) but worth it!
It is defiantly very safe from all the safety features and well built.
I would recommend this to anyone!
The only slight problem I have with it is my son is bigger for his age and the buckle part is a little hard to clasp and not pinch his leg.


Customer Buzz
the Britax Marathon is working perfectly for our 1 year old. We've only had it for a month but it seems to be well made. I think my favorite feature is the no-tangle straps, which make strapping in a wiggly baby much faster.

Customer Buzz
As a new 59 year old Grandma, I was able to buy this for my car, install it (and I have arthritis) without difficulty and it functions.

Customer Buzz
Very happy with this carseat. It is easy to install, we still have it rear-facing for our 11-month old son. It is solidly built, I feel safe with him in it. Another important thing: Comfort. Most seats, it seems, have just a thin layer of padding atop the hard molding of the seat. This seat, however, is nice and plush.
When we had this seat checked by our local carseat technician at the firestation he said not to use the tether system until we turn the seat around, the Britax website says you can use the tether rear-facing but we see no point, plus there are no anchors in that position in my car.
One negative is the first couple of weeks , we had our son in the seat with the straps in the lowest position and to tighten him in, while pulling on the front tightener, the metal mechanism under the seat was catching on the molding thus preventing us from tightening as much as needed. But the fireman said to loosen the straps and re-tighten. When he gets a little bigger and graduates to the next level strap height, that will not be an issue. Even now after about a month of use, it is not an issue.
Other than that, our son is very happy in his new 'big boy seat'. I would purchase this seat again if I needed to.

Customer Buzz
Easy to install and use. High quality and material. Rated high in saftey. Completely worth the price.

Customer Buzz
Looks great. My chubby 25 pound 5 month old fits well.
I figured out to get him unbuckled I push on the button and pull on the leg straps (not the shoulder straps). I wish the velcro on the sides to hold the straps open was a little bigger or better placed. It takes up a lot of space in our Toyota Corolla but a not too tall passenger can still sit in the front.

Britax Frontier Booster Car Seat Rushmore

Product Description

imensions: 19.5 x 22 x 26.5 inches Weight: 23.5 pounds

Customer Buzz
We were looking for a car seat that would accommodate a child up to 85-100 LBS. We are very happy with the Britax Frontier Car Seat. The installation and set up was a snap and easy in and easy out for our grandson. We highly recommend this item.

Customer Buzz
This is an amazing car seat. It is extremely well crafted, and loaded with features. If you check the ratings, you will find that it out performs other similar car seats for height and weight of your child, outlasting many other car seats that cost less. The adjustable head rest allows you to adjust the height of the seat as your child grows. We bought two of these seats to replace our Britax Roundabouts and have had them for about two months now. This seat is easy to install and easy to travel with on an airplane. The only downside is that the strap covers and strap protectors can be somewhat frustrating when strapping your child in.

Advice for any car seat: Make sure you read the manual cover to cover and check your car's owner's manual for weight limitations on the latch system. You may need to use the seat belt to attach the car seat if your child exceeds 40lbs. Have a professional double check your installation, to make sure it is installed correctly. Many local police departments have a certified car seat installer who can guide you through the process. Make sure you check the expiration date on you car seats before passing them on. Many older seats are only good for 5 years from the date they are manufactured.



Customer Buzz
I have been a big Britax fan for the past 5 years, owning 2 Marathons over that time. I aged up to the Frontier about 5 months ago when my daughter approached 40lbs. The construction is good and I feel confident that these would hold up in an accident.

There are only 2 reasons why I give the Frontier 4 instead of 5 stars. One, it was recalled at the first of the year. Britax issued a small part to correct it, but it does make one wonder a bit of course. Two, they can not build a car seat where the straps don't get twisted. I've seen other reviewers complain so I know I'm not alone. I prayed the Frontier would be a better design, but alas, my straps actually look worse on the Frontier for my 5 year old than they do for my 2.5 year old in the Marathon. Regardless of the strap frustration, I still like the seat and the 5 point harness since my child is not a big 5 year old.

Customer Buzz
I own the Britax Frontier and the Britax Regent. While I like both, I like the Frontier better. It is easy to install, easy to adjust, has cup holders on both sides, and is comfortable for my son. He loves it and so do we.

Customer Buzz
I read the other reviews prior to purchasing, and I'm not sure why people had trouble installing this seat. I have a Toyota Sienna and the seat fit right in and installed really easy! The latches adjust on both sides which is great! Much easier than trying to thread a seatbelt! I love the security it offers even when switching from 5-point to a booster! I have a big 3 yr old and he's MORE than comfortable in this big seat. I do travel alot and no longer bring a car seat on the plane, however I wouldn't want to lug this one with me if I did. Its really heavy. So, have an option if you do plan to travel w/your seat. Other than that, I would fully recommend this seat!

Customer Buzz
We have a Britax Roundabout, which we love, so wanted next car seat to be Britax. There are several problems with this:

1. I can live with tricky installation. But after doing the tricky installation, the seat should be rock solid. This one wouldn't hug the 04 Passat Wagon's middle seat when using the LATCH system.

2. I can live with using the seat belt instead of LATCH (we do that in the other car where we have a seat from French manufacturer that doesn't have LATCH). SO tried the LONG BELT PATH installation. Turns out that the seat is too big for the standard seat belt to use the long belt path. The long belt path method intuitively seems more stable than short belt path. For the other French seat, we use the long belt path method and it works.

3. So we have to live with SHORT BELT PATH. OK - it's no worse than LATCH, so can live with that. Tried that installation. The seat moves too much, doesn't hug the car (same problem as with LATCH installation).

4. If you want to install on the side instead of the middle, it may work. But it's too big if you want to install this one and another seat, and one of them has to be in the middle.

The seat is very heavy and solidly built, which inspires confidence in safety (hence two stars, not one). But if it keeps moving... well, they got the basics wrong. The roundabout is great, never moves one bit!

The frontier has other small problems (the clip can slide down the belt all the way unlike on roundabout because frontier doesn't have the velcro straps, for example). We would have lived with those or fixed those under normal circumstances, but can't live with major flaw like this.

Customer Buzz
We purchased a Britax Frontier car seat for our 3 year old Godson. We were very glad that there was a review on your site which gave very specific information as to getting the car seat secured properly. Pulling the latch straps back through the seat shell was the key to tightening up the seat.The seat seems to be very comfortable and there seems to lots of growing room for our Godson.The 5 point harness is easy to fasten and unfasten. We feel that this will be the last car seat we will every have to purchase for him.We are very happy with our purchase.

Customer Buzz
My daughter is 3.5 years old. We had the Britax Roundabout for her since she was born and loved it. It was very sturdy and we felt she was very safe in it. It was very easy to install and even very easy to change from vehicle to vehicle. This new Britax Frontier also appears to be top-notch in terms of safety for our daughter. She is very comfortable in it and we like the fact that the 5-pt harness can be used up to 100 lbs. Children should be kept in a 5-pt harness for as long as possible. The only reason I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5 is because the seat is rather heavy and more difficult to install and trasfer from vehicle to vehicle. I suppose it might have to be heavier because it is for older children, but it does make it more difficult to handle!

Customer Buzz
We ordered the Frontier Booster Car Seat in the Canyon color after our son outgrew his last Britax seat. Love it, what a great brand! The seat fits perfectly in a Captain's chair in our Buick Enclave. It was a bit of work for my husband to install but we both feel like it's a heavy-duty secure seat for our son, I don't think they get any safer than this seat. Just wish they made it in a solid tan color like his old seat; black is not so practical in summers in Texas! Very easy to get our son in and out and I like the cup holders/arm rest features.

Customer Buzz
This is a great car seat. I know that my daughter is well protected in it. It is well-built and will allow her to use a 5-point harness longer than she would be able to in other car seats. The side-impact head rests are another safety feature that drew me to this product. The seat is very comfortable for her and she loves climbing in and out by herself (a lot easier than her Britax Marathon). She also loved the idea of the cup holders, although even our smallest water bottles are a bit to wide to come in and out easliy, which is frustrating for her.

I must say that even though I read the manual VERY carefully, this seat was really tough to install. Based on the manual's recommendations, if the seat belt receptor was positioned behind the car seat, we should have used the short-belt path installation. When we tried the short belt path method, we could not get the car seat anchored sufficiently, it slid around way too much (even with the top tether in place). Ultimately, we used the long-belt path installation and it is very stable now. That being said, it took a LONG time to get it tightened and secure in the middle of the back seat of our Highlander. This car seat will not be moving from car to car.

We have not used the car seat in Booster mode so I cannot comment on that.
