Super functional seat!

Bk1280

I love the design of this seat! The wide range of weight/height makes it versatile for a wide age of kids. The fabrics are nice, and the vegan leather accents are beautiful. the seat is easy to clean with the removable fabrics, though it’s always a bit of a pain getting carseat fabrics back on. It installs easily and easy to adjust to fit my child. It doesn’t leave me questioning if it’s installed correctly or adjusted correctly, and is easy to convert. I think this is a wonderful seat for years to come! I received this product for free as part of the stellar testing panel.

Great booster seat that grows with your child!

RDNjmomof2

I was able to easily install this booster seat in my Honda CRV. The installation instructions were very easy and having other Britax car seats, I was familiar with the set up and confident in my installation. My daughter is easily able to easily climb into the seat, we use the 5-point harness and like that we can transition to a standard seat belt when we’re ready. My daughter likes how high it sits and that it has more room than her old convertible seat. I particularly like that the belly pad doesn’t fall off when she climbs out of the seat. I like the material and how adjustable the whole seat is. Overall it is a great booster that I’d highly recommend to friends and family. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for the opportunity to try this booster.

Great features - easy, safe, and comfortable!

Jaderoseadi

I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We were very excited to test it out, as my daughter was just about ready to transition to this harness-to-booster type seat. She’s very tall and this seat is great for her. It’s actually space-saving as well, our previous one was quite bulky in comparison. The harness and headrest are easily adjustable and I look forward to using it as a booster seat in time as well. It has cup and snack holders on both sides, which are easily accessible and very convenient since my daughter usually ends up with both a cup and a snack. I also love that the covers are removable and easy to clean/wash. Overall, I highly recommend the Britax Grow With You Harness-To-Booster seat as a great investment to keep your little ones safe and comfortable as they grow.

Fantastic Car Seat!

BoyMom22

This is a fantastic car seat. Excellent safety features including superior side impact protection, which is so important to me. The fact that this seat transitions and will be great for my son as he grows through various stages of support needed is amazing. My son is 4 years old and weighs 40 pounds and we are using the 5-point harness mode right now. I find it supports his head better when he falls asleep in the car than previous car seats we've had. The seat was very easy to install and I love the gray/black patterned look of it. I received this product as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel, but after conducting my own research, I had already selected the Grow with You ClickTight Harness-2-Booster as the best car seat for our family! I feel great getting on the road with my son in this seat and I bought a second one for my husband’s car too.

Great Car Seat!

ReviewDad

I received this Grow With Me Click-Tight Harness to Booster Car Seat from the Stellar Panel review program. I have been extremely happy with this car seat because of the seamless instructions and ease to install. The directions are easy to follow and there are several videos showing proper installation. My favorite part of this car seat is the ability to clean it. My son is happy if he is snacking in the car, therefore the car seat sees quite a bit of crumbs. I love that I can throw the removeable cover in the washer and drier and get back on the road in no time. I like how this car seat can recline for maximum comfort and it has the ability to extend so it can grow with my son. The multiple cup holders have been handy to keep his snacks, water and toys within reach. Overall, I am very happy with this product and would absolutely recommend. We have the green color and it is visually appealing and looks comfortable too!

Grow-with-You for the win!

katherine

I'm on my 3rd kiddo, and given the gap in their ages and needing carseats in two cars, I think we've been through 14 carseats over the years. This one – the Grow with You ClickTight Harness-2-Booster – is a dream. Beyond the fact that carseats just look a lot nicer than they did even just a few years ago, I can't get over how easy the installation is. It truly took a quarter of the time I was expecting and I felt far more sure that I did it correctly than in previous installations. Although we're still on the younger end of the options, I played around with adapting the seat and it seems like it will truly grow with my little one, just like it claims. That means buying fewer seats overall, saving money, and less general waste. Win-win-win! I'm just thrilled that I got the chance to have the seat (thanks weespring Parent Panel!) and won't have to go through another super clunky, hard to install version like I did with my first two kids!

Great car seat at an affordable price point!

Erin M

I received this cars seat to try as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I ended up liking it. Most importantly, the seat was extremely easy to install with the ClickTight technology. We have been transferring the seat between two cars and everyone who has used it (grandparents included) have not had any difficulty with installation. I also like the removable fabric covers, which make it very easy to clean (machine washable). If I'm being picky, I honestly don't love the faux leather accents, but that is purely cosmetic. This seat is safe, secure, and my 3 year old son says it's very comfortable and the double cup holders are a game changer for him. I also love that it converts into a booster so it will grow with him and likely be the last carseat we need to buy! Definitely would recommend and will probably end up purchasing the same seat for my younger daughter once she graduates to a forward facing seat.

Cool N Dry

Johns Creek Grandma

The style is great but the best part of the Material. Cool N Dry it spot cleans easily without spotting. Stays clean. I am an expert this model I have purchased 4 car seats. I have also purchased 5 other Britax car seats. Cool N Dry is the best. My sister has also bought 3 car seats on my recommendation.

Quality Convertible Booster Seat

ABM33

ooster seat is its longevity and that’s it’s not particularly heavy so it would be practical for travel. It’s not as plush as a convertible car seat but is a great option if you have an older toddler and need something that is relatively easy to install or remove regularly out of your car. Additionally if you’re in my situation with a young toddler, ready to move into a convertible car seat and a forward facing toddler but you don’t want to massive car seats taking up your back row it’s a good option. I also appreciate the look of the seat with the leather trim as it makes it look as high end as my other car seat. I also like the cup holders placement and a little snack or toy holder area to avoid the constantly falling of toys out of a car seat. I did knock it down two stars for the lack of plushness in the back which my older toddler commented on, “it’s not as cozy” and the harness release was difficult to grasp the first few times I used it. I look forward to seeing how it fares on longer rides and how the fabric withstands cleaning. I received this product as part of the Stellar Testing Panel.

Great Features!

Tidy Dad

I love this car seat! My 4-year-old daughter is able to ride comfortably, and it will grow with her into a booster seat. It is so easy to install, and also easy to adjust as she grows.

The best of the best

Ltan829

I was thrilled to receive this seat through the Stellar Product Testing Panel because, quite simply, Britax clicktight car seats are the best out there. If you've ever installed any other car seat, you know the huffing and puffing, pulling, pushing, and readjusting, that car seat installation usually involves, only to check and find out that the seat isn't in tight enough. You can skip all that pain and frustration by buying a Britax clicktight. This seat can literally be installed in under a minute, and is in so tight that it won't move at all. You don't have to sit on it and apply pressure while you tug at a non moving strap, you don't have to check if you can safely use a rolled towel behind it, you just follow the installation directions and go on with your life. I have no idea why other brands haven't tried to make a similar product because it's so vastly superior to anything else on the market. The seat I received also has a machine washable/dryer safe cover which makes it even more amazing. I've been buying clicktight seats for the last 8 years and will continue to do so until all my kids are out of car seats.

We love it!

CT MamaJ

Britax is our family's #1 choice when it comes to car seats for our kids and the Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster car seat is everything we hoped it would be. Installation of this car seat is really easy, which is great for our family as we switch seats between cars sometimes. The materials used for the seat look and feel well made, breathable, and durable, and while we haven't had to wash the covers yet, I love that they are removable. We seem to have to wash ours semi-frequently between snack messes, car sickness episodes, potty accidents, etc so being removable is a very important feature for us. I think my favorite feature of this car seat is that it can be transitioned to a booster seat when my kids reach the height/weight requirements. Car seats are pricey so to have one that can transition from car seat to booster is amazing and a worthy investment in my eyes. As much as I do love this car seat, there are 2 things I feel could be improved. The first is the cup holder size. Some childrens' water bottles have a larger girth than the cup holder can accommodate so we have a few that don't fit in which is a mild inconvenience. The other issue we are having with this seat is that the strap between the legs to tighten the shoulder straps is nearly impossible to tighten. I have noticed it to be difficult to adjust that strap on our other Britax car seats but this particular one is worse than usual. Overall though, this would still be my top pick for a safe, easy to use car seat that will last you through many growth phases! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat to test and review.

Great nice-looking seat

G Ng

My son, (3 years old and about 35 lbs) is ready for a front-facing harness seat and so we appreciated the opportunity to test out the Britax harness seat. We’ve had many friends rave about their Britax carseats, and when this one arrived, I was impressed with it for a few reasons: 1)how sturdy and comfortable it is. The steel frame is solid and I feel confident putting my little one in this. Not to mention, the seat is padded enough and the fabric nice so that he feels comfortable sitting in it for a long car ride. When we opened the box, both he and my 19-month-old wanted to sit on the seat and they each took turns sitting in it and buckling themselves into it in the living room. Lastly, the crotch strap stays out of the way so that I don’t have to fish it out from under my kid when he climbs into the seat himself; 2)It’s SO user-friendly for the parent. It was really easy to install and pretty intuitive if you’ve had other carseats before, in addition to lots of manufacturer stickers showing how to install it and the guidelines for using it in the different modes. Love that the headrest is so easy to adjust (you just press a button to lower or raise, so you can easily adjust as they grow or adjust quickly when different-sized kids are using it); 3)It’s versatile. it’s both a harness seat and a booster and has a fairly wide weight range, so we should be able to use it for a long time. Plus, it has 2 cupholders, so if your kid likes to double-fist their drinks/snacks like mine does, they’ll like this. 4)Easy to clean. It’s easy to take the cover off and machine wash it. I check this for every carseat because my kids get carsick and removable machine-washable car seat covers are a must. Even better, you don’t have to uninstall the carseat to get the cover off! 5)It looks good. Again, I really like the gray color and like that it looks nice in my car and can stay a little cooler in the heat than black. Overall, I think the quality is worth the price of this carseat. There are a few cons: it is a heavy frame since it is steel, so you won’t be moving it back and forth between cars (or flying with it) without getting a good workout in; and the cupholders are a bit small and doesn’t fit all of the kids’ water bottles. Thank you to weeSpring Parent Panel for sending me this carseat to try and review.

Great seat for your older 'toddlers'!

amberwags

We love how easy this Britax carseat is for our 4yr old to get in and out of! He is able to do and undo all the hooks himself except the tightening, of course. This was easy to install once I realized there was a piece to lift up for the seatbelt to go under :). My son doesn't love the padded part between his legs, so we're going to remove that. He sits up nice and high so he can see out well and the cup/snack holders are easy to access. The pads on the harness near his shoulders/neck are a nice bonus as they don't slide around as much as some others do. Thank you WeeSpring Parent Panel for the opportunity to test this out :)

Disappointed

Ash K

I have been purchasing britax car seats for 6 years now, they were my go to brand. I recently upgraded my twins to the grow with me boosters. I haven’t even installed them in the car yet and I noticed a piece was broken. The process to adjust the crotch buckle is poorly planned out. You have to unclip very flimsy, very cheap plastic clips that are holding the fabric on the seat. One of those clips snapped when removing, using the exact instructions in the manual. Why would you choose to use such a cheap design in an excellent rated, and one of the more expensive car seat options out there??

Solid seat!

Hilmcmillan

I received this seat from Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest review. My 5-year-old was very excited to see this seat arrive in the mail! She feels like a big girl now that she has a booster combo seat. We are currently on a road trip 6.5 hours in and it’s been great! She loves her drink holder and we all love how comfortable the head rest is; it supports her head well and makes sleeping easier than other seats we’ve used. I really like the ClickTight system as I always have a difficult time getting other seats in tightly enough when installing. My two critiques are that I find it difficult to tighter her 5-point harness straps adequately (but I think I just need some more time getting used to it) and the only spot to stash snacks is very small. Overall I would recommend!

Great car seat!

Pated20

The Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat is a great car seat! I really like the click tight feature. It makes it easy to adjust and install this car seat. The car seat was easy to install. It took me less than 5 minutes to secure the car seat in my car. I love the removable fabric for easy cleaning and the fabric is soft and comfortable. Both my 5 and 3 year old like sitting in the seat. I also like how I can easily grasp the handle at the top of the seat to adjust the height of the back/headrest. My kiddos also love how much the headrest sides come out to easily rest their head when tired. And I really like how there are two cup holders and extra little holders for toys/snacks. I am really grateful I was able to test and review this car seat through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Will last a long time

Maria88

I received the product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange if an honest review. This is a really nice seat as it will take her well into her big girl days. The seating is soft and sturdy and the brown leather accents are a nice touch. I like how the clip on the bottom has padding as well so the clip won't dig into her. The latch is easy to release. I like how the holders are part of the seat versus detachable, still easy to clean if it were to get messy.

Most secure install ever

AliMarie

I've installed a lot of car seats and this one gives the most secure install I've ever done and with ease. The belt lock makes everything incredibly tight and the seat does not move at all. It's sturdy, at about 30 pounds, so a bit hefty if you are moving it a lot. It's very easy to adjust, the harness loosens and tightens easily and it's easy to unlatch. My 5 year old reports that it's comfortable and easier for her to unbuckle than her last seat. The materials seem quality and while it's heavy, it's not overly bulky. It fits within the boundaries of the car's seat which is nice when you have multiple car seats. The colors are neutral and the material seems easy to clean when needed. This seat will last for the next several years and the long expiration means I will have no need to buy another car seat for this child again. I was given this booster seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel but I would gladly purchase or recommend this car seat on my own.

Comfortable Stylish Car Seat

nickimcnair

I have been a longtime fan of Britax ClickTight car seats due to the ease of installation (my 6 year old rides in a Frontier and has for a while). This car seat was no exception. I highly recommend making use of the ClickTight feature and using the seat belt to install this seat (rather than latch). It’s easy to do and the car seat feels really secure. I received the Spark color of the seat and it is very soft, comfortable and gender neutral. The straps do not twist (which has been a pet peeve with past car seats) and the harness height is easy to adjust at the top of the head rest. My 3.5 year old has no complaints! The one thing that could be improved on this seat is the padding behind the crotch strap clip - although it very effectively prevents the crotch strap from bothering my daughter, I find that the pad gets stuck under her when she climbs in the seat and I always have to dig it out from under her. I wish the pad were more attached to the clip. But this is a very minor issue and should not deter anyone from this seat! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this product.

Great Big Kid Seat!

mrsmgerwitz1

There are so many things to like about Britax seats! The ClickTight mechanism makes installation a beeeze. My daughter (5yrs) was riding in a Britax One4Life when I received the Britax Grow With You ClickTight Plus Harness to Booster seat to review through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. She reports that the seat is very comfortable, and she likes the arm rests. I noticed that the padding seems less substantial than on the all-in-one seat, but my daughter says it isn’t less comfortable, though we haven’t made any extended drives since receiving the seat. The general shape seems to be designed well for older kiddos. My daughter is on the smaller side for her age, but I can tell the seat would fit an bigger child well, and would fit the bill for a kiddo not wanting a seat that would appear “baby-ish.” It does sit a bit lower in the car, but my daughter hasn’t complained about a restricted view. The fabrics are very nice and definitely have a more premium appearance. The straps are easy to adjust, both to raise/lower for height and to loosen/tighten (we loosen and re-tighten the straps with each use of the seat, so it it important that the harness adjuster is easily accessible, which it is). My daughter said she likes the rubbery harness pad (which surrounds the chest clip), which her other seat does not have. Finally, the seat is less cumbersome (lighter, slimmer) than a typical all-in-one seat, which is definitely a plus, especially if you will be needing to move the seat from car to car at all. However, even with its smaller footprint and lighter weight, the seat does not feel like it sacrifices safety. Overall, I think the Grow With You ClickTight Plus is a great seat for a growing kid, ready to move on to more of a big kid seat.

Must have!

Rach0124

We have been using Britax car seats since we had our first child and have always been happy with the look, functionality, and safety of the seats we’ve purchased. There are so many options out there and it can be overwhelming but we always know that our children will be safe and comfortable with a Britax product. When we bought a booster to replace a convertible seat, there were so many options and we ended up with one of the less expensive Britax models. We recently got this model for our other car, thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel who provided us this particular booster and we are thrilled! You know you’re a parent when you get excited over a car seat or booster and this has us both excited. It has more cushioning for comfort than the model we have in our other car, it’s bigger and seems like it will be able to grow with our daughter a bit better. She has even given it great reviews and said it’s so comfortable and that it has room for all her trinkets (she likes to collect a lot of random stuff). Installing a car seat or booster can also be a pain but the ClickTight functionality makes it as easy as possible and adjusting this to a growing kid is easy! We had a car seat where we’d have to take it out to adjust anything but the top on this booster adjusts with a simple grip and pull, which also ensures the straps are where they need to be to safely protect your babies. We will definitely be purchasing a few more of this model once our little guy is ready for a booster so we have this model in both cars for both kids. 100% worth the money for not only the comfort of your child but the ease of installation for the parent and the peace of mind that they’ll be safe! Thanks to Britax to always making a great product and thanks to weeSpring Parent Panel for the opportunity to try such a great product!

Love that it effortlessly transitions from harness to booster!

SD Teacher

I received this Grow with You Click Tight Harness-2-Booster to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. This car seat was very easy to install. However, this is not a car seat I would transfer from car to car because it was heavy (in my opinion) but once installed, it felt very stable. Delivery of this car seat was very timely since my 4 year old nephew was visiting from out of town for the week. Due to his height and weight, he used the lap-shoulder belt booster system during his visit. Once he left, we effortlessly adjusted the harness to adequately fit my 3 year old who used the harness. Both boys really enjoyed using this booster. Both mentioned the benefits of having 2 cup holders and snack/storage compartments. They also liked (and used) the arm rests. The booster is well cushioned and I especially like the dark coloring, giving it a sleek look. I did not remove the cover, but feel like it won't be an issue when I have to remove it. The safety features are very reassuring. The manual was packed with important information and we really appreciated the illustrations and the step by step instructions. This booster has many great features like the cup holders, the arm rests, and the lower connector storage I have not seen with other boosters. These features are very useful as toddlers transition to boosters and assert their independence! We used the lower connector storage to store the harness while we employed the lap-shoulder belt system. This is a great booster and we use it every day. I would recommend this car seat for toddlers because they will be able to transition from the harness to the lap-shoulder booster. There are many pros (safety features, easy to install, arm rests, cup holders, lower connector storage, easy to clean, looks sleek) to only one con (in my opinion) which I felt was that this car seat is heavy and a bit difficult to carry. Thank you weeSpring Parent Panel for the opportunity to use and review this Grow with You ClickTight Harness-2-Booster.

Great Car Seat!

Lynds520

As a mom of four, I have learned about a lot of valuable products for babies/children and believe that car seats are the area that are most important to consider. I have spent years following trends in car seat safety and will only put my children in the very best. I was thrilled to receive the Britax "Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat" as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, as I consider Britax to be a leading manufacturer of car seats and boosters and I trust them. When I took it out of the box, it was extremely sturdy and heavy (which I like in a car seat). I initially thought we would need to put it in our minivan because it seemed too wide to go in our SUV that has three kids across in car seats and boosters. However, once I spent time reading the manual and getting everything adjusted for our little one, I figured I would try it. To my great delight, it easily fit. What I like best about the seat is the ease of installation! I am a stickler when it comes to car seat installations and even though I have done them countless times, I always refer back to the manual to ensure I do every step correctly. The "ClickTight" feature eliminates the second-guessing and is "fool proof." While the seat will be a staple in my car and used daily, it will be my "go to" when Grandma or a babysitter needs a seat because I fully trust that anyone can properly install it. The fabric is easily wiped down and I experimented with removing it just so that I could see the "inner workings" of the seat and I loved that it was able to be removed, but not easily enough that it will fall off or stretch out! The "grow with you" component is very easy to adjust and I love that you don't need to rethread the harness! The buckle has nice placement and is much more comfortable for my son than many other seats. He has always ridden in great seats and has never commented on them, but he has a definite preference for this Britax and even asks to ride in my car with his "comfy seat." This is a wonderful car seat for when your child is ready to face forward and it will fit us for many years to come (my 6 year old who is in the 98th percentile for height fits in the seat too)! I highly recommend this car seat!

Solid harness to booster seat!

Karacuda

I was given this booster seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and so far it has not disappointed! The seat is a little heavy, but that is to be expected for something of its size. Installation was super easy; it only took about 10 minutes. It probably would have been less under normal circumstances, but I’m currently pregnant and had a hard time climbing in the back of my SUV to get to the tether hook lol. It was also simple to adjust the height. All I had to do was push the button on top of the headrest and pull. The fabrics feel nice and I love that you can easily remove the cover to wash, but the cup holders are probably my favorite feature. My son is a big water-drinker so he likes having a place to keep his water bottle. Overall, I’m liking this seat and my son is too!

A breeze to install!

Mom1b1g

I received this car seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This car seat is above and beyond all other car seats we’ve ever had! It is so sleek and chic! The leather accents are beautiful and really high end. It was such a breeze to install. I’m telling you, the easiest car seat installation ever. The features on this product from the easy installation to the double cup holders and snack holders… they didn’t miss a beat! I love that my daughters water bottles of all sizes fit inside. Not once have the straps ever gotten twisted which I have to say has happened with every other car seat we’ve ever owned. She is so comfortable in this seat! When she falls asleep, her head is so well supported. I feel confident that my child is not only safe but super cozy! Although I haven’t had to wash the fabric yet, I absolutely love that it’s all machine washable! Huge bonus and will certainly come in handy. I love that it can grow with my child up to 120 pounds!! This is the best car seat we’ve ever owned and I’d highly recommend for anyone looking for a new or upgrade to a car seat!

Great car seat to transition from harness to booster

Andini

We are loving this car seat so far! It fits my 5.5 year old well as a harness seat and will be able to transition to a booster seat as he grows. The seat should not be installed using the lower anchors (LATCH) for children weighing more than 40 lbs, so the lap-shoulder belt is the preferred method. I didn’t have any issues with the seatbelt installation - open the clicktight system, route the seatbelt through the green path and remove the slack, close the clicktight, and connect the top tether anchor. The brown leather-like details of the “Ace Black” color give the seat a high-end look and the cover is removable and washable, making it easy to clean (which is much appreciated with a little one who likes to snack in the car!). There is a little pocket behind the material to store the user manual, so it’s easy to access when needed. The cup holder also easily fits our favorite kids cup, which is a huge upgrade from our prior car seat that couldn’t fit anything larger than a baby bottle. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat. Overall, we’re really liking the sturdiness, safety, and ease of use of this seat and my son is liking his “comfy big boy car seat!”

Never Worry About Installation Again!

MomofTwo20072020

The Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat is, by far, the best car seat I have ever owned. From installation to use, it is not only easy to use, but gives me peace of mind that my 2 year old daughter is the safest she could possibly be. My favorite feature is the ClickTight system. I have used the ClickTight system in my previous car seat, so I am very familiar with it. I love how easy it makes the installation of the car seat and how safe it makes me feel. It’s so simple to do, and I know the seat is installed properly. The fabric on the seat is absolutely phenomenal! I love that it is easy to remove and clean and made with premium, super soft materials. One of the first things my daughter said about the seat was that it was “soft”. She also loves her “big girl” cup and snack holders! It’s very convenient to have her water bottle directly next to her and easy for her to access. Once she was in the seat, it was very easy to adjust it to find the best fit for her. She has been very picky about her car seat in the past, but she loves getting into her new Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat!

Big on size, features, safety and style!

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat. I have always been a huge fan of Britax car seats and used them for all three of my young children. This Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat is one of the best looking car seats I have seen in a while, in addition to the fabric looking good it is also really easy to wipe clean and comfortable for my daughter. The cup holders are super functional and I like that there is a small spot behind the them to hold snacks/toys. I am officially never going back to a car seat without clicktight, it makes installing a breeze and gives me the piece of mind knowing my daughter is installed correctly. The straps adjust easily and adjusting the height was a breeze. With three kids it can get expensive always replacing outgrown items, I love that this will be the last seat she will ever need. The quality will last well beyond how long she needs it. The only feature I can see that could be a negative is the size of the seat, it fits great in my Tahoe with Captain seats but I could see it taking up alot of room in a car or suv with bench seat. Overall if you have the space in your vehicle I would 100% recommend this seat as you transition to forward facing!

Grow with You Carseat

Lauren mama to four

I like the quality of the Grow with me carseat and the harness to booster style works for our family's needs. Right now, my four year old son is using the harness phase of the carseat, and once he is bigger, he is excited to use the seatbealt option. This carseat option works well for our family as his old convertible carseat (backwards/forward facing style) will be passed down to a younger sibling, while this grow with me style seat will last him many years till he no longer needs a booster, so this style works for our family carseat needs. My husband installed the carseat and reported that it was necessary to follow the directions and not intuitive, but then it was easy to install after reading the instructions (always recommend reading the instructions, especially for carseats!). The steal frame makes the seat heavy but also feels much more secure than other high back booster seats. We plan to keep the seat installed in one car, so moving it is not a concern. My son loves the double cup holder, which fits his water bottle, and snack spots, which is very helpful. The fabric is soft and comfortable, and my son loves the color he picked out. I love that you can machine wash the cover and that the material has no added FR chemicals, but natural flame retardant. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster seat for my honest review, it will be used for many years to come with my growing kids!

Grows with my child

Crheinha1

Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing us to test the Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat. We love our Britax carseats and this was the perfect fit for my 6 year old. This carseat was easy to move between our three cars and compact enough to fit in the small sedan. I love how this carseat will grow with my child. We will be able to use it as a booster soon instead of buying a whole new seat. This carseat installed similar to our other Britax seats with the clicktight feature so you know it's in right. You can also easily lift up on the headrest to make sure the shoulder straps are in the correct position. All in all we are happy with this seat and would recommend it.

Highly recommend as it grows with your child!

mbveth

As a mom of two (with only 21 months in between), finding a product that can really grow with your child, and reduce the costs of purchasing multiple is crucial. This carseat does just that. You can easily switch from a 5 point harness to a booster seat by tucking away the harness straps. It was very easy to install in both our larger car (mid-size SUV crossover) and my small car. I do wish the cup holders were slightly larger, but I feel they are a standard size. It was a little hard for my 5 year old to wiggle her water bottle out. The seat was incredibly comfortable - my non-sleeper enjoyed it so much she even took a nap as you see in the picture. I received this booster from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

An easy, convenient and comfortable booster!

rushi24

I got chance to try this amazing carseat/booster as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. It is very useful for our family. It is very easy to install with the ClickTight mechanism. It is wide and comfortable as a booster for my seven-year-old. We secured the booster with the lower anchors, and it stays in place nicely. The best part for our family is that it can be a high back booster for my daughter, and when I need to carpool, I can also use it as a carseat for another child. It is very easy to adjust to different people without moving it from the car. After 40lbs you have to switch to seatbelt installation, but it isn't hard to do. Moving the straps up and down is really easy to adjust for height. When I move my 2.5 year old forward facing, I think this would be a great seat for him. The seat is heavy and very secure. You can use the harness mode until a child is 65lbs, and the booster mode is good for kids from 40-120lbs which makes it a great seat that will last a long time. The fabric is really smooth and looks easy to cleanup. My kids like to sit in the seat and it gives us some flexibility in having a carseat/ booster - allowing for carpool. I think this is a really easy-to-install, useful seat!

Excellent Transition Booster!

Lovewithyoo

It was time for an upgrade from the convertible seat to a booster for the big sister, as little sister is ready to use it. The problem is she is still isn’t quite tall enough for a booster (just a couple inches more!). Thankfully, Britax’s Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat is the perfect solution. We received this thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and big sister was more than happy to help me review this. First things first is that it was easy to install, and while installing and adjusting it to her size, I tried taking the covers on and off to see easy it would be to wash them. I can safely report that like other Britax models, the covers are easily removed and can be machine washed - perfect for kids who love to eat snacks and get a bit messy while on the road. Speaking of snacks, there are two cup holders and snack holders, which made her quite happy! Whether we are going on a road trip or simply picking her up from school, she always wants a snack. Now she had plenty of room to stash her snacks and water bottles. She had also reported that the seat is super comfy (she fell asleep the first time in it!), and she likes the colors. I personally loved the easy install (simply lift up the seat under the cushions, follow through with the seatbelt, and close it!). Eventually, we will to move her from the harness to the seatbelt, and I know she is looking forward to that. All in all, while it is heavy, it is a great transition booster seat!

Britax does it again!

Lyndsey

I have been using Britax for all 3 of my kids for over 8 years. I choose Britax because of the amazing safety ratings! I love that I can put my 3yr old in the harness now and it will grow with her! It will be the only car seat she needs from now on! Another awesome feature is the built in cup holders! It’s also incredibly easy to remove (and put back on) the cover for washing. If you haven’t used the push button latch connectors, you’re really missing out! Super easy to install, and remove! It always feels very secure as well. This is a great feature when you’re always moving car seats from one vehicle to another. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster seat.

Convenient for parents, comfortable for kids

JenT

Love this seat. Extremely easy to install— under 5 min to get a super tight fit, so it’s no big deal to move it from one car to another if you need to. I also appreciate the no-rethread harness, which makes it easy to use as an extra seat for carpooling with friends’ and family’s kids too. This is our first Britax seat and my 4yo daughter really loves it. We installed in our second car that we don’t drive the kids in that often, and now she’s asking to take that car because she likes the Britax better than her original seat, so we may have to make it her main/everyday seat. She especially likes the padded crotch buckle and the rubbery things on the straps near the chest clip, which make it more comfortable than her other seat which doesn’t have those features. I received this booster from the weeSpring Parent Panel in exchange for an honest review. But between the ease of install and the comfort for her, this is a winner. We may just have to buy another, eventually!

excellent, albeit bulky, seat

JD303

This is a great car seat. We received this product through the weeSpring Parent Panel trials, and it works very well for our family. It is a breeze to install - the click-tight really is a great feature. You just lift up the seat portion and click the seat in place by pushing it down. It is great to not have to spent minutes pulling with all my strength to get the seat tight enough! Thus, the feature would work nicely if you were to transfer the seat a lot between cars. That said, it is a very bulky and heavy seat, which makes often transfers less ideal. I do feel as though my child is very safe and that she will be comfortable in this seat until she can move to a simple booster. And I also like that the side panels do not restrict my child's vision to look out the window (which helps with motion sickness, as well as boredom). Pros: very comfortable, very easy to install and use on a daily basis, and it does not get over-hot in the summer months (or at least not as hot as all-black or less-padded seats). Cons: it is very heavy and bulky. This only matters if you often need to take it in and out of cars, or if you need to fit three seats (or even a seat and two people) in the row. If you have a narrow car or look to fit three people in the back row, this is not the seat for you.

Most secure car seat on the market

Bayarea007

By far the most secure and fashionable car seat we have ever owned. My husband can not stop raving about the look of the product he said it looks like a racing seat and it was perfect for our BMW I4 as it is thinner in design so fit well in the backseat. Being the mom I was most concerned with safety functionality and it is by far the most secure car seat we own. I thought that having a swivel car seat would be best to have for getting him out of the car even if not as secure but I couldn’t have been more wrong. I find this car seat to be easier to get him out of because it is thinner in design but most important is this car seat will not budge an inch! Also, so easy to install. I used a video for guidance and it was the easiest three steps I have ever done. I am so used to the lower hooks in the back and honestly those never felt that secure. The only issue I had was adjusting the straps, you really have to pull hard on the strap and on the tightening cord to adjust. My son is 2 but the size of a 3.5 year old so fit it extremely important and never easy. The removable fabric though makes installation easy and will make cleaning seamlessly in our household. I am looking into buying a second one to replace the other one we have in my car now because of how much I love and trust it for my child. I am so happy I received this product from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Easy Peasie Child Seat

Bourgelady

I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I’m setting this seat up for use with the harness and click it latch system. My daughter is turning 4 soon. She is 41” and weighs about 35 lbs. The seat is pretty weighty, but it’s not like I’m going to be moving it from car to car. And I’d rather it have some weight and stability than not. It’s really easy to adjust the straps. You simply lift and slide the harness height adjuster into the desired position. This sets the shoulder straps and head restraint at the same time. Gone are the days of taking the entire seat apart, while flipping it this way and that, to re-thread the shoulder straps. You still have to re-thread the buckle (the strap that goes between the legs) to adjust, but that’s no biggie. Following instruction in manual, I installed it easily by myself. I did have hubby come later and tighten everything just a little bit more than I could manage.

Good car sear

Rnking17

The Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat was easy to install and adjust for my 2 year old son. It's a bit big for him still, but it looks comfortable and stylish too. I love that it can grow with my son and has a removable cover for easy cleaning. However, I do wish it was easier to tighten. It always feels like I have to use all my strength to pull the strap tight enough and I end up hurting my hands. I haven't had this issue with other car seat brands, just britax. I also wish the cup holder was bigger to fit my sons large water bottle since it fits in other brand car seat cup holders, but the snack tray is awesome! I also wish the arm rests were cushioned, but my son hasn't complained. Overall, I'd recommend this car seat. It feels very sturdy when installed, which gives me peace of mind knowing my son is safe in this car seat. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster seat.

Expected more from Britax...

HCMom

I was given this car seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I currently have a just turned 5 year old and a 7 year old. My 5 year old is really really tall for his age so we just recently moved him over to a high back booster when he outgrew his carseat and my 7 year old is in a high back booster. The boosters we use have the rigid latch which I love and have gotten used to versus the traditional latch with the strap. I was surprised to see that not only did this seat have the traditional latch strap, but instead of the push button latch things, this has these metal hook clasps. It seems very low quality for what is supposed to be a very high quality brand. Also, the way the latch belt comes out of the seat is super high up the back, so it comes from the bottom and then goes up the back and out above the arm rests. Super awkward placement and I'm definitely not a huge fan of it, especially compared to other car seats we have had. I've used/installed at least 10 different brands/styles of car seats between my own and friends' kiddos before and never seen a strap that has to come up that high on a seat like this. Because of this, the installation of this seat isn't the easiest it could be, I don't like the latch clips at all. This feels like it's a regular car seat shaped more like a high back booster, that just can convert to a booster if need be, not a seat that's designed to be a booster long term, if that makes sense? When you convert it to booster mode, the fabric is floppy on the back, there's nothing to hold it down. My biggest thing I dislike about carseats that convert to boosters is that there are holes left for the bottom buckle that gets taken out, which basically now are just holes to collect all the crumbs, this one doesn't address that problem either, so there will be holes in the fabric for booster mode. We had to use the manual to figure out where to put all the straps and everything for booster mode, it was a little complicated to figure out. In terms of the fabric feel, it feels soft and looks easy to clean so that's positive. The seat back adjusts way high, so it will definitely accommodate tall children, but the higher it goes, the more loose/floppy that back piece is which is unfortunate. The height of the arm rests is nice because it's easy for my kids to get the buckle under it. We also love the cup holders but do wish they were a bit bigger to accommodate most water bottles. All in all, I personally would not recommend this seat, and I would just stick with the carseat until it's outgrown and then switch to a dedicated booster. I would not want to use this as a booster long term.

Luxury All Around

TeacherMom

I absolutely love this seat! My son is 4, almost 5, and weighs 40 pounds. The installation was a breeze with the click-tight system. We have owned two other Britax convertible car seats with click-tight and there’s nothing that compares. When we install the seat I know my son is safe because of how secure the seat is. An added bonus is that the seat reclines making it feel a bit more comfortable for my son in long trips. The seat itself is gorgeous. I love the faux leather accents and the black material is amazing. It’s soft yet durable and it doesn’t overheat in the sun! It’s also incredibly easy to keep clean and wash. And my son keeps talking about how comfortable it is! I was also pleased with how the straps stay out of the way when my son gets in and out of the seat. The shoulder straps pads also have a strap that connects the two behind the padding. I love this as I don’t have to worry about shoulder pads sliding down. The car seat has it all - safety, looks, comfort, easy to clean, durable materials. You can’t go wrong with seat. I’m excited to see how it grows with son as he gets older. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat.

Family Favorite

Cathlin

As a family of five we have formed some strong opinions on carseats, and after infancy Britax is our go-to brand. We have used Marathon, Boulevard and Frontier Britax models and I was very curious about the Grow With You clicktight as ostensibly the newest version of the Frontier model, a favorite for our bigger kids. The ease of install is a solid plus with the clicktight, and while it has the pass through option for a shoulder belt as well as the tether, we opt to use the lower anchors with our vehicle. I tested the seat install in its full version, forward facing with the harness, in both our Honda Pilot and our Subaru Forester. Both are straightforward installs, but the width of the seat is a consideration if you have more than two children in need of carseats - we do! It is possible to do a two Grow With You plus a rear facing Boulevard combo across one row in the Pilot, but if you have a narrower backseat you are more limited and would need to combo the Grow With You with two narrower seats or only have two carseats in the back. My favorite feature of the Britax seats and the Grow With You is no exception is the quality of the materials. I’m confident in the safety of the seat and that it will last us through multiple children - seat expiration will come before we are done with this one! My children’s favorite features factor, too, especially when you are doing frequent commutes and long drives. Mama does not want to be negotiating on the carseat when we are leaving, and the comfort of the Britax seat makes it a favorite. The should portions are padded and tether to one another with a clever panel underneath the back cushion so that they stay in place easily without twisting. The cupholders are useful without being so large they compromise overall seat width and fitting three across. Adjusting seat height and straps is straightforward with a horizontal bar along the rop rear of the seat, making it possible to adjust properly while the kiddo is in the seat. (I received this product as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel)

Great Car Seat

Summer0307

We have had this car seat for about a month and we like it, but there has been a learning curve for easily adjusting the harness for our toddler. Tightening the harness is more difficult than it has been with other car seats - one of which is also a Britax. The cup and snack holders are great for water bottles and toys. The design quality and materials of the car seat is great!

Grow with you Carseat

Ang04

We bought this carseat a few weeks ago. Once we got it the kids ripped it out of the box and sat in it before we could even get it to the car. They fight over who sits in it. We love it. Super easy to install and easy to clean!

Love this seat

Anonymous

Thank you to stellar product testing panel for sending me this car seat for free in exchange for my honest review. This is my second Britax car seat and I am a huge fan. This seat is easy to install, has lots of room to grow ( fits my big 8 year old) and is amazing quality. What I love about this car seat is how easy it is to use- it doesn’t take a lot of effort to pull the straps tight. The seat itself seems like it’s made from really good quality fabrics and if it’s like my older one, should be easy to clean. What I LOVE about this seat is it will be the last seat I have to get. We are using it in the harness mode but once my daughter gets bigger we will transition to the belt mode. Installing this seat was incredibly easy with the click tight mode and think took me under 2 mins to get it positioned correctly. I will say this is a seat you do not want to have to move it’s super heavy. It has two cup holders on either side for snacks or sippy cups and different head positions for easy adjusting. For me it’s safety over everything and this seat feels incredibly safe. I really don’t have anything negative to say about this seat other than I’m super impressed by the design, fabric quality and how easy the installation was. Definitely recommend!!

Secure (but mildly cumbersome) Seat!

MidwestMomOf3

I have used a different brand of carseat for the past 6 years, so it took me a bit to understand the directions on how to install this one. I feel like the belt placement instructions were kind of hard to decipher - and I still am not positive that I threaded the latch belts out the correct spot. However, I have never been able to get a seat installed and tight enough to my liking in such a short amount of time! There was no sweating or swearing - and that's saying something! I also really like that the top latch is connected to the seat in two spots so strap creates a triangle and secures the top of the seat much better than when it is just one single spot. (I am attaching a picture of what I am talking about). The crotch latch has a padding added to it that keeps it accessible, and you don't have to dig between your kid's legs. The chest buckle has rubber "stoppers" on the straps that keep the buckle in the correct position - those things are not moving, and that gives me great peace of mind. I LOVE that feature I had a hard time adjusting the height while it was installed in the car, but once I removed the car's headrest, it was much smoother - it stuck a bit, and wasn't as smooth as I liked, but it was doable. The ClickTIght system is really snazzy, and definitely makes me feel like the seat is securely installed - HOWEVER, it is HARD to get it back open when the seat is installed. One of the latches keeps getting stuck and that's where the swearing came in. I'm not sure if it is like this because I used the latch system and maybe I DIDN'T feed the straps out correctly. Overall, I think this is a great seat, and once it is installed and adjusted correctly there are no issues. It was cumbersome to install, but most car seats are! My petite 4 year old has a ton of room in the seat, and she says it is very comfortable. I had my tall 6 year old in it before I installed it, and she fit in great as well. It will be very easy to convert this to a high back booster, once I feel like she is mature enough, and I love that I know that it will be securely installed and she won't be sliding all over the car's seat. Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for this seat in return for an honest review!

Great car seat for your child

Sam364

I received the Britax Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel to try out and review and I'm beyond impressed! My daughter just moved into the range to be able to use a forward facing seat so we were looking for options of what to get and then we got this seat. One of the most stressful parts about getting a new car seat is having to set it up and install in the car. This car seat left me speechless! It was so easy and simple. You release the bottom, put the seat belt through and click it back down 1, 2, 3! The covers come off easily for cleaning which is a huge plus. When your kid gets sick or spills on the seat you have to figure out how you're going to clean it or fight with all the belts to get it off. This seat, it just slips off for easy cleaning. It was very easy to adjust and have my daughter sit comfortably and safely and she was beyond excited to be able to see out the front. I also like having double cup holders for a snack and a drink to keep your child entertained and fed. Favorite feature for sure is the ease of install! You can't compare an easy to install seat and a tough one. Great job Britax and thank you Stellar Panel for letting me try it out!

Looks great and easy to install

Cecilia B

I received this booster seat from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have only used this seat in harness mode so far. I like that this has a simple but sleek design with some neat details. I had the “Grey Contour” style; the light grey fabrics have a subtle ribbed texture and the black fabric is smooth and somewhat shiny. The combination of colors and textures of the materials are so pleasing to look at! I thought the rugged appearance of the harness was particularly cool and unexpected. I love that this car seat was quick and easy to install! The v-shaped tether is super convenient and there isn’t a step that involves awkwardly stuffing your vehicle’s seat belt through a hole to thread and secure the seat! The process for adjusting the buckle position was mostly simple. Removing and replacing the seat cover was slightly annoying just because of the retaining clips that are apparently only on “select covers”. There are no visual indicators, you won’t know if your seat cover has these clips until you attempt to remove the cover. The position of these clips on the seat cover and where they are supposed to clip onto when reattaching it are not illustrated in the manual, so that was mildly infuriating and required some fumbling around. However…moving the buckle to the second position was ridiculously easy! You just give the belt a twist then slide it to the appropriate notch. The only things I truly dislike about this car seat are the “Impact Absorbing Chest Pads”. The pads move independently from the chest clip, so moving those pads and the clip is inconvenient.

IMPRESSED! (And I can be a snob when it comes to these things!)

alyssasuzanne

Super impressed with this car seat! It's well made, sturdy, and looks nice. Before I had the opportunity to be a part of the WeeSpring Parent panel (that gave me this product to try out) I had a car seat I had every intention of buying that costs $400. I liked this other car seat because after testing several different ones, I felt it was the most secure. (The store I was testing at didn't have Grow with You ClickTight Harness-2-Booster in stock.) The cover comes off easily (nice for washing!) and I love the head guards that protect his head and also give him a place to comfortably rest when he's sleeping. After installing the Grow with You ClickTight Harness-2-Booster, I'm convinced that it's more secure than the seat I originally planned on buying. I love that when I was following the installation instructions I felt confident that I was doing it correctly- the clicktight feature is really nice- once you have it installed, it's set to go. I installed mine in the middle of a hot summer day and had it finished before I'd started sweating too much- maybe 10 minutes or less, and y'all it's SECURE. Before this car seat, we used a ridiculously expensive infant car seat that prides itself on not budging from it's placed location and I think the Grow with You ClickTight was even more solid. My toddler was excited to sit in it and tells me often that he loves it. (Especially the armrests and two cup holders!) He likes to put small cars in the cup holders, so this seat affords twice the toy storage for him which he obviously loves. I give it 5 stars and 2 thumbs up, because I feel like my kid is extra safe, and that's the most important thing to me. If I had to give this car seat back after trying it out, I'd absolutely go back and buy it over the $400 one I planned to buy. Seriously so good- if you're in the market, you should go for it!

Another Win by Britax

TG613

This is the second Britax seat we’ve had in our daughter’s lifetime and we’ve loved both of them. This is the perfect transition seat for her. It’s less bulky than her past infant seats and in that way makes it easier to climb in and out herself and exert her toddler independence. She loves how many cup holders and cubbies there are. If she doesn’t have that many snacks in the car, she fills them up with toys and drinks. I appreciate that the cover is removable to clean. Car seats have always been a challenge in that way so I love that. The materials feel so plush as well. The way they designed the edge of the car seat made the belt path better. It was almost easier to install and not so bulky or sticking out like many usually do. Thank you to Stellar Product Panel for providing me with this car seat. You can’t go wrong with a Britax seat!

New Favorite Carseat Alert!

Anonymous

With three boys under five and many visiting cousins and friends, we have gone through many car seats. But when I go the email from Stellar Product Testing Panel that I was being sent a Britax Clicktight, I literally squeaked with excitement. Transiting my eldest from traditional seats to harness boosters has been very hard for this Mama heart. They don’t seem to fit as tightly against the seat and it makes me nervous if there was a collision that the seat won’t do it’s job. The Grow With You Clicktight Harness to Booster is the perfect solution, it hardly moves when properly installed and it doesn’t take much to install it because of the Clicktight technology. I love the addition of the new back tether - that seriously ups the game in my ability to tighten it without having to get my husband out there to muscle it together. The fabrics and straps are all great quality fabric and I love that it’s washable for the day that ketchup gets on it. I’m so glad to have a car seat to grow with my kids, and am considering replacing our other seats with more of this one. Truly top of the line.

Beautiful Booster!

Jb100908

I was provided with this booster through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Upon opening, I loved how sleek and modern the design was. The faux leather accents are really nice and elevate then look of the seat. The seat itself is a little heavy, but I don’t plan on moving it from my car, so that’s not a big deal. What I love: the seat has a low profile and my child has no problem climbing in and out of the seat. The cup holders are awesome and he loves the armrests. I’m told the seat is very comfortable ;) What I don’t love: the reason I removed one star is because I find the harness difficult to adjust. The rubber bumpers on the chest straps plus the pads on the upper straps make it impossible to get a quick, good fit on my child. I usually have to pull the straps and adjust three or four times to make sure the straps have all of the slack removed. Not a deal breaker on this seat, but a little inconvenient when you’re in a time crunch (and your child moves like a snail). Overall, I really do like this seat. I like the look, the feel, and that the cover is washable (!!). I would recommend and just say there’s a little more time needed to get the perfect fit on the straps. A great seat though! Love Britax!!

Great design and easy installation

smckb8

This car seat was so easy to install! There was no assembly out of the box, and the instructions for installation were very clear. My daughter is 4 years old, 33 lbs and 38” tall, so I installed with the bottom latch hooks and top anchor. It was so easy to get the seat tightened in our vehicle correctly, without tugging, straining or having to sit in the seat while yanking on the installation straps. With the ClickTight system, there’s minimal effort required, and I had it ready to be ridden in within a couple of minutes. Adjusting the straps and recline for our daughter was also very simple, and just took a few seconds. The fabric is very soft, my daughter loves it, and it looks like quality material. It’s very easy to clean, and I love that the arm rests are not fabric, because that seems to be the part of our seats that always get the dirtiest! The cup holders are a nice bonus, and have fit everything we’ve tried in them so far. The only issue so far has been tightening the harness to the correct tightness. It take a little bit more effort, but with a bit more use, I am sure it will get easier. This is a very minor issue, and all the positives for this one make it well worth it! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat!

This car seat has everything I want!

This car seat is so well thought out. From aesthetic design to functionality, I couldn’t find a single thing to complain about. My favorite features: -The click tight install - removable seat fabric - twist free straps I’m not sure if the arm rests were designed for this purpose, but they are great for holding the straps before buckling in. It super easy to drape the straps around to hold in place. My 5 year can easily do it herself, unlike other car seats where it takes a bit of fine motor skills to hold in place. The click tight made the install super easy. The first time I installed this car seat, I was able to install it in about 2 minutes. I was able to get the car seat installed tight enough on the first try, and I had full confidence in how well it was installed. It didn’t move even a little when I tried to wiggle it. The removable car seat was also very easy to remove. This is a great feature, especially with a kid who likes to snack in the car. I found the front elastic a little difficult to remove but there’s only 3 elastics and 2 hooks to undo for the seat fabric. It also washes great because of how small the piece is. It fits in the washer and has room to move around. The extra pieces on the strap around the chest clip was a feature I haven’t seen before. It gave the straps more stability and kept them from twisting. Definitely a feature I didn’t know I needed. But now that I’ve seen it, it’s necessary in all my car seats!Overall I am very happy with this car seat. From the details of the sporty trim to the functionality, you can tell this car seat was designed with parents and young kids in mind.

Easy to install and comfortable harnessed booster

KCharron

We received the Britax Grow with You ClickTight Harness-2-Booster for free in exchange for my honest review just days before we were taking a long trip to the beach, thanks to Britax and the weeSpring parent panel. When I first took it out of the box I noticed the high quality fabrics and slim design of this seat. This seat was being installed in the third row seat of a 2019 Honda Odyssey. This is our first ClickTight Britax seat and prior to this seat we have used another well-known brand that has been known for easy installation. However, this seat was simply amazing to install! I had absolutely no trouble getting a solid fit within seconds with the seat belt. Clicktight is in the name but I never imagined how easy and user friendly the install would be. This seat has a steel frame so it was a little heavy and difficult to get into the third row. We ended up having to go through our trunk space to the third row. This typically isn’t an issue for us because once our seats are in we don’t move them around too often. My petite six-year-old daughter immediately hopped into the seat upon install and instantly she preferred this seat. She commented on how comfortable the seat is and how it makes her feel like a big kid. She liked the cup holders and arm rests. It was easy to adjust to her height. We drove all the way down to the beach with no complaints and in fact she was raving about the comfort of the seat. At one point we had to switch the seats around at the beach. This seat was so easy to uninstall and reinstall. This time on a captains chair in the middle row. Again we had to go through the trunk space to get the seat out of the vehicle but then it was easy to install in the captains chair. We have had this seat a few weeks now and it’s been installed and uninstalled several times with ease. My daughter still talks about this seat and how much she loves it and prefers it to her previously used seat. We have three children and have owned many, many, many brand name car seats and this is my favorite. We absolutely love this seat. Pros: Easy installation, soft fabric, comfort, easy to adjust, more of a big kid feel than a child seat. Cons: It’s a bit heavy and long, which is really only a complaint when trying to install in a third row. We don’t typically move our seats around so much so it’s not a problem for us. We will be keeping this seat in our vehicle as a primary seat.

Britax is great

Shupermanrs

We have used britax for 6 years now, first we have 3 convertible ones for the smallest ones and now we have 2 of the grow with you click tights for the oldest. We are about to buy a third click tight. They are easy to clean and use, to swap between cars. You can wash the seat parts in the washer and dry them. They dont shrink. The color didnt bleed so we wash other things with them. They are also easy to put back together. The life span has been great, the oldest seat still has 2 years left and our youngest will out grow them before that date which saves us money. The only regret we have is our first seat was a graco, it should have been a Britax.

Fantastic Booster!

MamaBear2

I have been using this booster for my 5-year-old son, and have been very impressed by the design and ease of use. Here are my thoughts on various aspects of the product:INSTALLATION: Installation was a breeze! The instruction manual was very clear and user-friendly. There is a lower connector (LATCH) system that can be used for harness mode or for added stability in booster mode. The straps were easily accessible and simple to use. The “Click-Tight” feature makes it easy to reach the belt path and makes switching cars much more convenient. EASE OF USE: This model is an ideal choice for anyone who needs a seat that can be used for kids of multiple sizes and ages, or for someone who wants a seat that will grow with the child from 5-point harness to booster. It easily coverts from harness to booster mode, with the harness straps tucking conveniently behind material on the backrest. There is no need to uninstall the car seat to make the switch. The seat is very comfortable with lots of soft padding, and the 2 cup holders are very helpful. One thing I will note is that my other child uses a booster from a different manufacturer, and the design is slimmer and more lightweight than this one. This makes it more convenient when switching cars often and is easier to toss in the trunk when not in use. This booster, however, seems more sturdy and protective. The adjustment levers, etc., seem more durable as well. That being said, I would probably recommend a less expensive, less bulky option for families who will be switching cars frequently. MAINTENANCE AND CARE:The material for the seat covers is one that will wipe clean easily. Unfortunately, it seems that most parts are not machine washable. The seat covers are also a bit more involved to remove due to the added padding, side impact protection, etc. There are lots of little crevices and multiple overlapping layers of material, which makes cleaning up crumbs and spills less convenient. SAFETY:My favorite feature of this booster is that is feels SO much more stable and sturdy than other brands. I am an absolute stickler for car seat safety. When expecting my first child, I was horrified to read that a huge percentage of car seats are installed incorrectly. For that reason, I always had my car seats installed or checked by a certified child passenger safety technician (many fire and police stations have at least one person with this certification). This booster has been designed to make installation as fool-proof as possible. It even has color-coded seatbelt paths so you know you’ve got everything in the right spot! I was surprised to learn that many brands of booster seats do not come with LATCH systems or any other means of attaching the seat to the car. They are simply placed on the seat, and the vehicle seat belt secures both the child and the seat once buckled. While this meets legal safety standards, I am grateful for the added stability this booster offers by including a LATCH system. It can keep the base from shifting sideways during a side impact, thus helping maintain proper positioning of the vehicle seat belt. Another obvious safety bonus for this booster is the added side-impact protection. In summary, this is a fantastic booster that is sturdy, protective and easy to install. It converts easily from harness mode to booster mode. It is a bit bulkier and heavier than some brands, so might not be as convenient if it needs to be moved often. In my opinion, however, it cannot be beat for safety and durability among boosters. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this booster seat.

Sturdy with super easy installation and height adjustment.

Kpinkalla

I have 3 boys and we’ve been using this for my youngest who is 2. Comparing to our previous car seats it’s so much more sturdy/solid. It’s just feels so much safer then our previous ones. Installation was so easy. It only took me about 15/20 minutes including juggling kids. My favorite part is height adjustment is so easy we’ve even been able to quickly adjust to fit my 5 year old during an unexpected carpool situation. Then easily switch back to adjust to my 2 year old once we were home. I haven’t needed to clean yet but it does easily spot clean with wipes. Overall we’re so happy with this product. From installation to extremely easy height adjustment I would highly recommend this. I received this through the weeSpeing Parent Panel for my honest review and I’ve already recommended it to a few friends looking for a new car seat.

Safe Car Seat That Looks, Feels Great!

Embiaco

Upon receipt of this gratis car seat (as a member of the wee spring Parent Panel), the first detail observed was the weight. SO HEAVY! The weight makes it seem ultra secure in the car. It isn't budging a centimeter (nowhere close to an inch). However, it did take two people to get it into a second row bucket in an SUV. Install wasn't difficult (with the directions) but took some time. It is the first car seat we've had with an additional strap attaching to the back of the seat, which I am really thrilled by. Anything to keep the car seat as stable as possible at all times. The gray/black/red color combo is sleek, especially on black interior, and the heathered gray fabric doesn't seem to show a lot of mess. By touch, you can tell the fabric is high quality. It seems extremely safe. It sits up high, which my son likes so he can see out the window. The cup holders (real talk: toy and crumb holders) are deep yet easy to clean. All in all, love this car seat.

Great seat to grow with your child!

JRW1

Love this car seat! Looks nice, soft fabric, easy to install, easy to use, and comfortable for my tall but skinny 5 year old. He loves the double cup holders!Initial car seat set up: Instructions are ok but a video would be better and make it much easier to do. The click-tight release levers were stuck to the point to where we thought it was broken. After we finally got it released, it’s totally fine. But pull much harder than you think you need to. And then pull harder than that. Installation in the car: Easy to install, secure, connect. The tether hook isn’t the easiest to use, it’s awkward to tighten, but once it’s secure, it’s very, very tight. Even with that, it still is by far the easiest car seat I’ve ever installed. We’ve been using it about a month, already had a spill and it was really easy to clean. I’m really happy with it and my son loves it. My son is 5 years old, 47 inches tall and 46 pounds. It is installed on the drivers side in a 2017 Honda CRV. We use it in the harness mode and have not tested it in the seatbelt mode because I want to wait till he’s outgrown the harness before switching. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this booster to test!

Great seat

BoymomX2

Britax is my favorite brand of car seats and this one did not disappoint. I love the plush black material and classy brown vegan leather accents. This seat seems very safe and sturdy, which is clearly the most important aspect of a car seat. I love the click tight installation as I always feel that it is installed securely. I did have a little difficulty figuring out how to open the seat, but it only took about 5 minutes. Once opened- I threaded the seat belt through and it was installed in less than 5 minutes. The removable fabric is great especially given the life of these seats, my messy children and how many snacks are consumed in the car. I am currently using it with the harness which was quite easy to adjust the correct height by squeezing the headrest and lifting. My child is 5 years old and about 42 lbs. I am looking forward to using it with a seat belt and love that is has the seat belt guide to ensure proper fitting. The large side head rests will protect his head and help when he does fall asleep. The cup holders are also a must and love that they don’t detach like so many others. I received this product as part of a Stellar Product Testing Panel. Thanks for the opportunity!

Great car seat for growing toddler!

WLSDAD

I recently received the Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and have been extremely pleased with how easy the seat has been use. My favorite features of the seat are how easy it is to get my child in and out of the seat. They are even able to get into it themselves by using the large arm rests to pull up into the seat which is very helpful. I also like that the shoulder pads are attached to the shoulder rests which makes adjusting the straps really easy and always keeps them at the right height. The base of the seat is very open which makes it easy to clean out and it looks like a real car seat which my 3-year-old loves. The seat uses a very standard process for installing and was overall easy to install and adjust. If I could improve one thing on the car seat it would be that the seat belt notch/path for forward facing install had a deeper pockets, which would help hold the seat belt in place when installing. However, this is minor and the install instructions were clear, so install only takes a couple of minutes out of the box. Finally, both myself and my kids like that the seat has two cup holders and small cubbies for car toys! Overall, I would highly recommend this car seat and plan to use it for years to come.

Best car seat we've every had!!

CassieJahr

We have three kids aging from one to seven years old and after having gone through multiple different brands and types of car seats, this one is without a doubt the best we've had. While it is significantly heavier than others we've had in the past, the weight is actually something I've come to prefer versus other (cheaper) models we've had in the past. After moving car seats from one vehicle to another on a fairly frequent basis, moving them has become a huge pain due to locking mechanisms on different brands, and the shear difficulty in getting them tight enough to the seat. This model is hands down the best for installation. Not only is it super quick and easy to install but I no longer struggle to pull on the seat belt with one hand while pushing down on the car seat as hard as possible with the other. You simply route the seat belt through, and push the latch down to secure it even tighter. Installation in moving from one vehicle to another has gone from a 15-minute chore to less than two minutes with this car seat. I also really prefer the fabric on this model - while we've only had it a short time it does appear to be of much higher quality than other brands we are used to. It is a heavier material that seems to be much more durable and has better cleanability too. Disclaimer: we received this product for testing from Steller Product Testing Panel.

Our daughter loves her new big girl seat!

RedMinivan

The Grow With You car seat is very well made, and the materials look very luxe. The ClickTight mechanism made it easy to install into our car, but we found a video online that made more sense than the manual explained it. Tip: you don't have to remove the fabric to find the squeeze buttons to open the ClickTight door. Once you thread the seatbelt through and close the door back down, it makes a super tight installation. For experienced parents, sometimes it's the small things that really stand out, and the size of the cup holders perfectly fit the sippy cups that our daughter uses, so that was a nice little perk. She immediately filled them with her snacks the first time she got in. Our daughter loves her new big girl seat, and she says it's so comfy. When she falls asleep, which is often, the seat cushions her head and keeps it from falling forward and waking her up. The removable cover and fabrics were well made and durable. One thing we look for is fabrics that will be easy to clean over time, and we love that these are machine washable. One thing that could be improved is the rubber strap holders that lay across the chest, above the buckle. They can be a bit difficult to move, because rubber by nature doesn't flow easily with other materials. Note that the harness holders are not the same thing as the comfort cushions that rest over the shoulders. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat for review.

Best in Class Seat Seat

etowle30

I recently received the Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have a just-turned-three year old, and she sits forward facing in a harness car seat. I love that this seat is easy for her to get into by herself and she can even put the straps around her shoulders (I clip and tighten them). She also has room for her little toys she inevitably brings on every car ride AND her snacks and water bottle. This is the best and easiest car seat to adjust and install. The headrest adjustment made it so easy to change when I had to carpool with my older daughter's friend. The next day I easily switched it back for my three year old. Installation is basically four steps, open the seat, buckle the seatbelt, close the seat, clip the anchor. It's heavy (which I feel like it's safer), but once it's in the car, it's really, really simple. I like the fabric of this seat, and mine has a (faux) leather detail, making it look a bit more high end. Also, because the fabric is removeable and washable, I'm not so worried about spills but more importantly, car sickness! Finally, when my daughter is big enough for a high back booster, I can continue to use this seat because it converts to one. I like that I can tuck the harness straps in and not have to worry about finding another seat for her. I love this seat and would absolutely recommend to anyone whose child is big enough for a forward facing car seat.

Thank you stellar product testing panel for giving us the opportunity to try Britax grow with me clicktight harness to booster seat. When the seat arrived, its packaging was well thought. Sturdy cardboard, was formed around the seat, not just a rectangular box which I appreciate and found eco-friendly. It was like a little treat when we opened the box. The camel colored perforated vegan leather really gave it a high end feel. I love that the fabric is machine washable. I do periodically wash all the car seat covers and am really pleased that the vegan leather won’t be ruined. It is a little heavier so best to have someone help load it in the car, if needed of course. This seat is easily installed, much easier than other brands we own. Any adult will have a simple time with securing it to the seat with the genius clicktight design. My 4 year old is about 43 inches tall, 38lbs and he fits comfortably. Comfortable being an understatement. Britax designed this really well! Four cup holders, yes we needed 4, water bottle and snacks fit perfectly. There are 3 things that really stood out to me, the arm rest, belly pad, and silicon chest straps. The arm rest is well placed and sturdy. It has silicon or rubber so it’s slip resistant. Giving my little guy a comfortable position while using electronics or reading a book. The belly pad is thick and comfortable when securing his buckle, it’s also removable for safe washing. Little details, the sliding silicon chest strap thing, how come everyone doesn’t have that?! It keeps the straps in place and doesn’t slip off narrow, tiny children. We love this britax branded harness to booster seat. In fact my husband, who’s not one to swoon over items like these, he told me to get a harness to booster for all of our kids. THAT is really saying something about the quality of a product! Get one!

Great next step!

This car seat is a little wider/larger than the convertible car seat I was using previously. In the 3rd row of a Subaru Ascent, I can no longer put down half of my back seat for extra trunk space. It also has overhang on the front, so I wouldn't be able to use it in booster mode in the 3rd row. I would have to move all the children around to have this car seat in the captains chair in the 2nd row. The Lap-Shoulder Belt with CLICKTIGHT installation is not as smooth as I had hoped for it to be. I have another car seat that uses a similar method and it is much smoother and easier. Nevertheless, the CLICKTIGHT method does make it easy and VERY secure. I am confident that the car seat is secure and does not move front-to-back or side-to-side more than 1 inch at the belt path. If the belt path was a bit more secured (so that it would not get twisted and stay aligned properly) and clearly marked (I kept trying to push it somewhere else according to the arrows), then I think anybody could install this with no problem. The material is smooth and nice to the touch. My child seems to enjoy sitting in it and so far has told me it is very comfortable. It is so convenient to be able to remove all the fabric to wash it easily. We are still in the harness mode as my child has not outgrown the height or weight requirements of the seat yet, but just to explore the seat a bit, I removed all of the harnesses to see what booster mode would look like. It was easy enough to figure out and I was able to easily put it back together into harness mode. Overall, I think this is a great step up from a convertible car seat when your child has outgrown the height/weight requirement but could use some more time in a 5 point harness facing forwards before moving to a high back booster seat. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat!

TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT WITH THE PRODUCT

JULIO BLANCO

We have always bought britax products for our children, strollers, chairs, etc.However, with the new chair model E1C199T, it has been a disappointment.1-My daughter is super uncomfortable, since the chair by design has a bulge in the lower back, causing a curvature in her back, when she falls asleep on a trip this bulge causes her cervicals to not have adequate support and her head moves to all sides. I'm not going to spend money buying an accessory to fix a Britax design flaw.2-The strap or anchor is too short and the tether hook does not reach the anchor of the car. This is unacceptable.I am really very upset with this Britax product, for years our children have only used Britax equipment but today Britax is losing a loyal customer.

fabulous seat with functional cupholders!

momtotwo

Right out of the box we were excited about this car seat! It looks great with both attractive fabric and accents. Our little instantly commented on how "neat" it looked and was excited to get it installed. Instillation was very simple. We did need to consult the manual to find the LATCH strap, however once we did that it went into the car with little effort. The ClickTight mechanism is super effective and easy to use. We felt very comfortable with how the seat installed and were confident that it went in correctly. The tether also differs from many other seats because it has two point of attachment to the set back which provides additional stability to the installed seat. Getting the little in was super easy. The no rethread adjustment was easy to adjust to fit our kiddo and the buckling system is quite easy to work with. I was not sure about the chest pads, but they do not bother the kiddo and they seem to help with cinching. The Cool and Dry technology was a major win with the little who reported that the seat was not only very comfortable but also that it did not make them sweaty! YAY! As a parent I am in love with the naturally flame retardant fabric (no extra added chemicals to off gas - yay!) that is super easy to clean! So far we have had one spilled drink - it wiped off easily, though I also did confirm that the seat was easy to disassemble for washing as that is a must in our house! A feature not to be overlooked - the cupholder and snack trays. I know that probably sounds trivial, but this seemingly small thing is a huge win as the trays help contain small snacks AND the cupholders actually hold real child sized water bottles! Overall, we (parents and kiddo) are in love with this seat and we look forward to many years to come with this seat as it continues to adjust and grow (transitioning to a booster) with our family! I received this product as part of a Stellar Product Testing Panel - thank you for the opportunity to review this product.

The Last Carseat You Will Ever Buy

Mommy S

This Grow with You Clicktight Harness-2-Booster car seat is the 3rd Britax I own. The two others I have are the Frontier and the Pinnacle, but I've had my eye on the Spark fabric when it came out a few years ago and I'm so happy that I got it. With that said, I've decided to focus this review on the differences between the Frontier and Grow with You since they're similar carseats and I would be what I would personally want to know this information. I got the specs directly from the Britax website. 1) Grow with You Harness max is 25-65lbs -- Frontier Harness max is 25-90lbs. (25lbs more for Frontier) If your kid is a little on the heavier side or has special needs that require him/her to be in a harness carseat for longer than usual, the Frontier would be the better choice. The average 8 year old is around 60lbs and would most likely be using it in booster mode by that time so the weight limit would not be a limiting factor for most families. 2) Grow with You Standing Height Forward Facing Harness (FFH) is 30"- 49" -- Frontier Standing Height FFH is 30"- 58." (9" inches taller for Frontier) Once again, if you need to harness your child for a longer period of time (especially if your kid is super tall for their age), the Frontier would be a better choice. Then again, an average 8 year old is around 50" so if you don't need to harness until that age, either car seat would be a good choice. 3) Grow with You Standing Height Booster (SHB) is 45-63" -- Frontier (SHB) is 45-62." (1" taller for Grow with You). Not sure why there is an 1" difference because all the other specs are the same. By the time kids are the max height, they will be able to sit without a booster and the seatbelt would rest at the right place on their shoulder. 4) Grow with You is 26.5lbs -- Frontier is 25lbs. (1.5 lbs heavier for Grow with You) Both carseats are heavy, but I found it pretty easy to move either one if you hold it at the armrests. 5) Grow with You Spark fabric is much, much nicer than the Frontier. It has a lot more cushion and a feels much nicer on the skin...much like your favorite sweatshirt. It also feels a little cooler than the Frontier when it's been sitting in a car when it's 100 degrees outside. With that said...it also shows more dirt since it's a lighter gray and messes don't really wipe off as easily. Frontier's fabric is pretty easy to wipe clean, but it's not as breathable. I haven't taken any of the covers off to wash and replace yet. Overall, you really can't go wrong with either carseat. I would pick the Grow with You over the Frontier because I really do like the Spark fabric a lot and the max height or weight would not be an issue for my family. My kids also like the Grow with You a lot more and will fight over who gets to sit in it when we get in the car. I also love how easily the harness adjusts so any kid (ages 2+ and 25+lbs) can sit in the seat. The Clicktight makes it super easy to install, but I will have to note that my husband had to be shown at least 3 times how to install this car seat before he understood how it worked. I received this product as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel in exchange for an honest review.

difficult to use

ruff1

I bought this seat 2+ years ago to have a mobile car seat that was adaptable over time. We are working grandparents that have our separate vehicles and we spend a lot of time with our grand kids. These click tight seats seemed like they would be convenient for shuffling between 2 cars. They turned out to be cumbersome, heavy, difficult to adjust and contained many poor design features for the high price. Granted, they are well built and probably one of the safest seats available, but are NOT easy to use. I would even suggest buying 2 cheaper seats as opposed to the difficulty of moving this seat car to car. The strap for the lower push on connectors is too short. You made it adjustable so why not add 2 inches so that you can connect them with little hassle then tighten?

Good brand, drab colors

TheyCouldBeBetter

Who wants to live a grey life? The one color option offered is sold out. That says something. Where’s the royal-purple, electric-blue, sporty-orange, spicy-red, peppy-pink, cool-green, whimsical-rainbow, or any other color than boring-black or grind-grey? We have to look at and live with these clunky, chunky things everyday. At least make them a little more tolerable. Maybe even fun? Please give us colors that our kids would choose if they could.

Absolutely LOVE this seat!

Allie M

Absolutely LOVE this car seat! My daughter finds it to be super comfortable, and I love that it will save us money in the long run. (It transitions to a booster so we won't have to buy yet another car seat for her in a few years.) My husband installed it and he said it was much quicker and easier to install than her last car seat. I also love how easy it is to take the removable fabrics off to wash - they machine wash really well too, which is a plus since my daughter has somehow already dropped ice cream on it... Overall, I'd say this is a great car seat! Definitely recommend! Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending us this car seat to review. (Side note: Though the seat was provided to us, we love it so much using it with our daughter that we're planning to buy another when the time comes for her brother! It's truly a great buy!)

Daughter & I both love this upgrade

aminid

I was super excited to swap out our current convertible carseat. It was so deep on the sides and lifting my toddler daughter into it, while 6 months pregnant, was like lifting a heavy kettle bell while my core was compromised. On top of that the buckles always seemed to get screwed up and twisted. All this to say I was glad when my daughter fit the age, weight, and height requirements of the Britax Grow with You Clicktight and I had the opportunity to try it as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Several things I love: 1. every piece is removable for easy cleaning, down to removal of the straps. Not always the case! 2. the straps are fool proof for getting twisted 3. Super easy to install 4. I love the captain chair construction with cup holders and additional space for all the random things that end up in a car! My daughter has a bit more freedom and it is way easier for me to get her in and and out of the chair.

It’s great but has some minor issues

whitneyr81

First I would like to say I love the ClickTight system. It is the best thing that has every happened to car seats. The overall look and fabric is just as nice as our Britax Boulevard ClickTight, bought in 2018 for my now 3 year old, that my 6 month old will now use. I can get this seat locked in to where it will not budge, but not as easily as the Boulevard. I feel as if the seat belt isn’t as protected in the path as it is with the Boulevard. I’m extra careful when installing it to make sure it will not get pinched and damage my seat belt. This could definitely be improved. The overall quality and safety is the same as the Boulevard. My toddler loves her seat. It will recline slightly which is great for when she falls asleep in the car. Her head doesn’t fall forward. I would still recommend this car seat because the overall quality, comfort and safety is just as nice as the others. But it could be improved with the belt path so be mindful when installing.

THIS THING RATTLES

Good grief this thing rattles like there’s no tomorrow. It always sounds like we’re off-roading. Once my kid maxes out the harness, it’s going to the grandparents. That’s the only great thing about this seat is the high harness limit. It also looks nice, so not totally a flop!

I cannot say enough good things!

I have loved this car seat from the start! My son was gifted this on his third birthday and he has finally (at 8 years old) maxed the weight limit for wearing the harness. A solid investment! I would highly recommend.

Awesome Product!

We were surprised when the Stellar Panel sent us the Grow With You car seat to test out. We have tested many products for our toddler but this was hands down the best. Right off the bat the packaging and setup is perfect. This car seat comes assembled already so all you have to do is install it into your car and adjust the sizing for your child. I cannot emphasize enough how nice this setup was for busy parents. The instructions were very clear and made installing this into the car a breeze. The Click Tight Harness is by far the best feature of this car seat. We had never used car seat technology like this before but it is a game changer. Once the Click Tight is setup with your seat belt all you have to do is install the back harness. It took about 2 minutes to install this car seat. The overall quality is top notch. The leather accents are a nice touch and make the car seat look very high end. Our child is raving about the comfort as well. The build quality is very solid and seems like safety is the number 1 priority. In the end this is our new favorite product for our toddler. We wish we had bought this car seat years ago as it has been a game changer.

Excellent for child with adaptive needs

I had initially planned to use this seat for my 4 year old, but when I saw the size range, the padding and features for older children I decided to use it for my 7 year old instead. She’s 65lbs and needs to use the seatbelt so I did have to remove the straps for booster use. That was super easy and while removing them I was able to see the quality of the seat as well. It is made to protect, all the features and materials seem reinforce that. Removing the straps was easy with the instructions provided. My 7 year old daughter has a rare genetic syndrome so she has different needs, adaptive needs, compared to other children her age. Part of her syndrome includes hypotonia (low muscle tone). This seat feels like it’s much more protective for her and supports her low tone better than a traditional or basic booster seat. She can use it longer than other seats which helps since she has different needs. When she saw it she sat in it, I was able to easily adjust the seat to fit her perfectly and it has room to grow with her as well. Installing it was just a matter of putting it in the seat since she will buckle herself in. She said it feels nice and I agree, the materials feel great and more comfortable for her especially when we have to make longer trips which are in genera harder for her. My favorite feature is the wide range of sizes this seat fits since it will be growing with her and I feel it’s a great seat for kids who have medical needs as well as basic car seat safety needs. I am glad I was able to review this seat through stellar product testing panel!

Safe, comfortable, and easy to install!

The Britax Grow With You ClickTight Harness-to-Booster Car Seat is undoubtedly the best car seat for a toddler we have used (and we have gone through quite a few). I've used this seat in both modes and found switching from one to the other to be seamless. Adjusting the straps and headrest height is also easy and provide the right fit. I used the five-point harness mode for my three-year-old and the belt positioning mode with my six-year-old. Both felt comfortable in the seat and it offers plenty of growing room to use for years to come. ClickTight installation is a breeze-- it gives me peace of mind knowing that our seat is always securely and properly installed, even when my parents had the kids for the weekend and moved the seat to their other car. Beyond the ClickTight installation, I love the new flame-resistant fabric. It's very soft and the seat is plush so my child is always comfortable. The vegan leather accents provide a lovely aesthetic and seem like they will hold up well to use and washing. After a bit of a sticky mess involving some candy, I needed to wash the cover. Removal was quick and the cover washed extremely well without pilling of the fabric. I found putting the cover back on a bit cumbersome, but I feel that is true with all car seats. My one complaint is that I wish the cup holders were a little bigger to accommodate my kids' insulated water bottles. They fit but it's tight and sometimes difficult for the kids to remove the bottles. Overall, this is a great car seat with premium features and most importantly, I feel confident in the safety of my child. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this car seat.

Loved this style seat since 2018 (and still do)!

We have had a Grow With You Britax seat for our oldest since 2018 and I was ecstatic to receive this one for use with my other two children (thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel)! I absolutely love the ClickTight installation system on these seats. Our other car seat brands can never get nearly as tight as these Britax ClickTight seats can. We have a mini van and use it as our main family car, so we actually have to remove seats quite often (to haul larger items). Reinstalling car seats is such a pain, but the Britax seats are so much easier than competitors! It truly makes a difference as a busy mom of three (6 and under). The covers are fully removable and machine washable, which is so important to me because the kids make such a mess constantly. I don’t have time to hand wash things and don’t buy anything that asks me to spot clean it! So this is perfect and I’ve never had an issue with the covers not washing up to new quality. A big plus to this seat is it’s versatility. I have kids aged 3-6 with lots of neighbor kid friends. We often need to switch up who sits where. So the fact that I can go from a harness to a booster, from a smaller child to a tall child, is amazing! Instead of swapping seats around, I can just have these which work for all my children. If there is anything negative, it is that these are pretty wide. If you want to fit three across, it probably will not work. However, the wide width allows the kids to have cup holders on both sides, which is great for the kids. It also means less “Mom! I can’t reach my …” which is a bonus to everyone in the car. Whenever another mom asks what car seat to get, I send them to Britax. I have been so happy with my Britax products and especially this car seat specifically! As I said, we’ve owned a version of this since 2018 and still feel the same about it. Packaging related, high five to your product design team on reducing the size of your shipping box! This seat came in a more compact, form fitting package than my last, which is great for reducing waste, space on trucks and so on. Just gives me another reason to feel that Britax is great company.
