Description of Britax Companion Infant Car Seat
Looking for an infant car seat with superior engineering and design? Then look no further than the Britax Companion Infant Car Seat.

The Britax Companion is a rear-facing only infant carrier, with True Enhanced Side Impact Protection, designed for babies weighing between 4 to 22 pounds, and measuring up to 30 inches in length.

The side impact protection has air-filled pockets that expand and deflate near the child's head for added safety. The height adjustable base features LATCH connectors, complete with LATCH storage right on the base. The Britax Companion car seat offers an angle recline adjuster to help achieve the perfect angle to fit your vehicle. The anti-rebound bar on the base helps to reduce rebound movement in the event of a crash, another reason Britax is a true innovator in car seat safety.

Britax also sets itself apart by engineering a built in lock-off system which offers better installation, without the worry of losing needed parts. The Britax Companion Infant Car Seat offers a full, adjustable canopy which provides ultimate sun protection from every angle. The Britax premium comfort pads protect baby's delicate skin from coming in contact with the harnesses. EPS impact foam around the child's head and torso plus the full comfort foam make every ride comfortable.

Additional bases may be purchased from BabyAge.com, making switching vehicles with your child a snap!

With all these premium features, what drawbacks come with the Britax Companion? Not many. If one stands out, it is weight. Weighing in at 18 pounds, the Britax Companion is one of the heaviest infant seats on the market. However, when one factors in the peace-of-mind of added safety and comfort, most Britax Companion owners would agree the added weight is a fair trade-off.

5 Star RatingSo Fabulously Chic and Safe!
I got this car seat for my baby because of Consumer Reports' original review ... and I knew even after the false review came out that I had made the right choice.

It's easy to use, is very sturdy, easy to clean, and I haven't regretted my choice for one second.

The only drawback, and it's a small one, is that it's heavy.

But it doesn't matter. If I had to do it all over again? I'd get another Britax.

5 Star RatingBest infant seat around
We had a Graco snugride for our first daughter {Britax did not have an infant seat out then} and used it for our second chid for a month. We were having issues with our daughter keeping her head upright{even with the head support} so we purchased this seat. Best buy we ever made.

Pros
Excellent head support
Holds baby until 30 inches {she is already 26.5 inches at 6 months and would have outgrown out old seat}
Secure base -- it does not move an inch once installed
Easy to adjust buckle
large canopy
Can snap onto some store shopping carts
Able to be used with the Peg perego P3
Rated number one in consumer reports

Cons
Heavy
not to thrilled with chest clip {it is not a snap in place one like on the larger seats}
Handle was difficult to use at first but with time it got easier

We have recommended this seat to all our friends who are having or recently had babies. Most of them are purchasing this seat {even though the babies are second and third children} and they love it just as much as we do.
