[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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 review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.
