With more than 70 years’ experience, Britax is one of the most trusted car seat brands in the world. They want to make the lives of children and families happier, more joyful and safer. They focus on how to keep your child safe during travel, manufacturing a wide range of high-quality car seats, strollers and travel systems.

When it comes to the number of safety features offered, the Britax Frontier absolutely leads the pack. The high-back booster has "True Side Impact Protection" technology, deep walls and energy absorbing foam that all help to distribute force in the event of a crash – greatly reducing the chances of injury to your child. Another safety feature can be found in the base of the seat -- SafeCell technology which works to compress and lower the center of gravity, helping to prevent the seat from flying forward in an accident. On the “convenience” side, the Britax has features such as integrated cup holders, storage spaces for snacks and toys and a removable cover that makes clean-up super easy.

The Britax Frontier is a forward facing, high back booster seat that is designed to grow with your child. When you use the five-point harness system it can handle a child up to 90 pounds and has a maximum shoulder harness height of 20.5 inches. The Frontier can convert into a booster mode which has a capacity of up to 120 pounds.

With its lower LATCH connectors, the Britax Frontier is easy to fit securely in just about any vehicle (although because it is a high back, if you have a much smaller car, the fit may be a little tight). The booster seat has two buckle positions in order to ensure proper fit for children of varying sizes. The Clicktight Installation System lets you install your vehicle’s belt in harness mode. The manufacturer provides clear, color coded belt guides to make sure that the belt is in proper position in whether you are using booster or harness mode. A clearly audible “click” from the LATCH system will remove any concerns about whether or not the seat is installed properly!
