      • Britax Roundabout 55 - Silverlake


        The Britax Roundabout 55 convertible car seat is designed for children rear facing from 5 to 40 pounds and forward facing from 20 to 55 pounds. The Roundabout 55 achieves revolutionary head safety through the use of Britax SafeCell Technology in the base, integrated steel bars, and energy absorbing Versa-Tether that work together to minimize head excursion and reduce the risk of head injury during a frontal impact. The Roundabout 55 also incorporates Britax Side Impact Protection, offers a five-point harness, and multiple buckle and recline adjustments. A body pillow is provided for extra comfort and infant positioning.

        Recommended Age:Newborn, Baby, Toddler

        Features:

        • Base with SafeCell Technology features SafeCells designed to compress in a crash, significantly lowering the center of gravity and counteracting the forward rotation of the child seat which normally propels the child toward the front seat
        • Integrated Steel Bars strengthen the connection to the vehicle and reduce forward flexing of the child seat during a crash
        • Energy-Absorbing Versa-Tether features a staged-release tether webbing to slow the forward movement, reducing the crash forces reaching the child, and a two-point attachment to minimize forward rotation while anchoring the top of the child seat
        • Side Impact Protection comprised of deep side walls lined with energy-absorbing EPP foam distributes crash forces, shields from vehicle intrusion, and contains the head, neck and body
        • Tangle-Free, Five-Point Harness distributes crash forces across the strongest parts of the body and provides a secure fit
        • 55-pound Weight Capacity for safety and comfort as your child grows
        • Rear and Forward Facing Recline for child comfort and positioning
        • High Density Comfort Foam provides an extra layer of padding to gently cushion your child
        • Two Buckle Positions for your growing child
        • Infant Positioning Insert may be necessary for small infants to achieve a snug fit of the harness around your child (sold separately)
        • Premium Lower LATCH Connectors for a quick and simple installation featuring a push button for easy release
        • Built-in Lock-Offs ensure a snug lap and shoulder belt installation with minimal effort
        • Anti-Slip, Contoured Base grips and protects the vehicle seat while offering optimum vehicle fit
        • Harness Holders keep harness straps pulled to the sides when placing your child in the car seat

          This carseat was extremely easy to install, a little hard to make the adjustments on the straps though. Otherwise, it is working perfectly.

            Comments about Roundabout 55 - Silverlake:

            This carseat is very easy to install. I love the fact that both tethers for the latches are able to be tightened separately. Makes for a seat that does not move at all. It took about 2 min to install. Also forward facing it can still be reclined a bit so my son can easily fall asleep. The seat is a good size...not too big. I have an evenflo triumph as well but I like this seat much better.

                We ordered this car seat as a secondary seat for my husbands car. It does require you to manually adjust the straps for their height, which our other one has knobs that you can adjsut but it has the LATCH system which we love. We are very pleased with this seat.

                  We bought the Roundabout as a second car seat for my husband's car. We have the Marathon 70 G3 as our main seat. The Roundabout does lack a few convenience features (must rethread to adjust harness height, HUGS), but that is why it is cheaper. So far, we love it. It is very easy to install, and it fits my daughter well. If you like the Britax brand, you will like this seat.

                    Britax has never let me down! I have 3 daughters ages 5 and under and we have tried other products but always come back to Britax - the products seem more comfortable and sturdier than the lower-priced brands. In my opinion, it is money well-spent!

                    My son loves this seat! He started in it at 6 months (due to being to heavy for me to carry in his carrier) and he is still in it at 16 months. So so easy to install, it's comfortable, and if your little one ever pukes on it like mine did, the fabric is not that difficult to take off. I recommend this seat to everyone! It not as big as some of the bigger models either!

                        Bought this as an extra carseat for my husband's car. We have another Britax Roundabout, different color, already. Knew I liked the car seat and continue to be happy with this new one. The color is just like the picture. Very nice. Easy to clean so far. We use it rear-facing for my 14 month old and it fits her well. The carseat fits well in both cars. Pretty easy to adjust the straps. We also have the same carseat forward-facing for our 3-year old. It works well in that position, too.
