Britax Boulevard – Makes Mothers and Babies Happy

The Britax Boulevard is one of the most popular convertible seats in the world. This company has been producing top quality car seats since 1984. They started out in UK market. They expanded into United States back in the late 1960s. What makes Britax stand over other baby car seat manufacturers is that they tend to go beyond safety standards.

As you already know, the major and the only reason why this seat is called the convertible is because you can have it front facing for a toddler and rear facing for an infant. There is a black handle bar underneath the base. Simply lift it to recline the car seat.

Britax Boulevard allows your child to be rear facing from five to around 30 pounds. You can turn them forward facing when they have reached age of one and 20 pounds.

Next, I will explain to you how to properly install a Britax Boulevard baby car seat. First, you must recline the seat by pulling recline handle on the bottom front of the car seat. If you are using noodles to help with the angle remember to make sure the baby seat is directly on top of the noodles. Britax uses push on LATCH connectors. If you are using them, first attach the LATCH connector to the lower anker by pushing it on firmly and listening firm click. You must repeat the same process for the other side of the seat. Next, working on one side of the seat at the time press down on the side of the seat and pull on the LATCH strap close to the LATCH adjuster; and off course, you must repeat this process until the LATCH belt is tight. After one side is done, do the same on the other side of the seat. By pulling on the unpadded straps close to the adjuster you get more and more leverage and that makes it easier to get the Britax Boulevard tight. Now you only have to adjust the convertible car seat as needed, so that is straight. But don’t forget to check for tightness at the belt path. Remember, it should move less than one inch when you tog side to side and front to back. Also, it is very important to check for the reclining angle. You can use a paper triangle for this. The baby seat should be installed at a 45% angle for a newborn or very young infant. The movement at the top of a car seat is called rebound. That is perfectly normal movement and it happens on rear facing baby seats since it is nothing holding that part of the seat. After installing the seat it is recommended that you check everything one more time.



There are four strap positions on this car seat. When your baby is rear facing you have their shoulders just at or slightly above the harness. When they are forward facing you can have it just at or slightly bellow the harness.



Although Britax Boulevard handles all their requirements needed for a convertible seat most people still tend to start off with Britax companion or some other infant car seat. This allows you to be much more mobile.

Britax Boulevard – Your Child’s Safety First

The Britax Boulevard convertible car seat car seat is suitable from approximately five months and 10 pounds to three years and 35 pounds rear facing; and one year and 20 pounds all the way up to 40 pounds forward facing. So, as the name says, this is a convertible baby car seat. Probably the first thing you will find that the seat itself is it really well padded. It looks comfortable and it is comfortable.

What I really like about it is the head support that actually grows with the child as he or she grows. It is very soft and your baby will love it. Best of all, there is no need to adjust the head support. Also, the Britax Boulevard convertible car seat car seat features a five point harness with all nice padded straps.

And what you have probably already noticed about other car seats is when you do come to release it you have to fiddle around inside and release it off. Well, you do not have to do that with the Britax Boulevard. All it takes is a couple of simple steps and you are done. You will love this easy off and on system. Especially when is really hot day because the harness holders keep the really hot metal buckles out of the way, so you do not have to worry about the child burning at that position. Also, these great harness holders keep padded harness straps out of the path while placing your baby in.



So, again it is all nice and easy keeping belt buckles out of the way from your child. It also means is that when we do want to put the child in we have not got that silly fiddling that we normally have trying to put them in and out. Also, a front farness adjuster provides easy front setting when loosening the straps.

Unique thing with this particular system is the built-in lock-off(s) system. This great feature helps secure the car seat belt, so that your baby seat doesn’t move more than 1’’ front to back or side-to-side at the car seat belt way. As well, unique to the Britax Boulevard convertible car seat car seat is the push-button lower latch connectors. This feature enables fast, easy and firm installation.

Best of all, the contoured base enables a firm installation in most types of cars.



Overall, this product from Britax is really top of the line. It is something that both young moms and dads will find very suitable for their children. And although it is a bit costly, just like other products from this manufacturer, this one is well worth every cent you spend on buying it.
