Buyer Beware of their great Price on a wonderful carseat. Pay the extra money and go anywhere else for this carseat. A compluter glitch (they claimed on our part) ordered us two identical carseats and b/c of this glitch it cost us 40$ (buyers remorse they claimed) on our part to send it back to them. They told me if I had ordered it from them (meaning thier website) they would have noticed 2 identical car seats being bought within 1 hour from each other and would have given us a call but b/c we ordered through Amazon then it was left up to Amazon to handle this. Amazon was wonderful and refunded the 40$. So the low rating was for babyage not amazon or the car seat. We love the car seat my daughter is 2 and small and the wings make her all snugly and comfy. So long story short,buy this car seat and buy it from amazon just avoid Baby Age.

Why not? Our son, had outgrown his travel system and we wanted something that was going last a long time and this seemed to fit the bill. We researched this site and others and on the basis of the good reviews decided to buy it. Perhaps there was an element of “nothings to expensive when it comes to my child’s safety” in our decision making. But we have found that there are some major design flaws with this car seat which I think are mind boggling bad, given how expensive it is. My biggest complaint is that when our child falls asleep in this seat ( rear facing ) his head falls down and gets caught under the ‘wing’ of the adjustable hear rest. The ‘wings’ of the headrest extent out quite a way. So each time my wife has been on a longish trip he arrives home screaming because his head is jammed under one of ‘wings’ and she can’t stop in the middle of traffic to fix it. Also the attachment for the harness, located in-between the child’s legs, is very low and not adjustable. In general, I think more thought should go into making a safe, functional, comforatable car seat. But this one poorly designed and expensive !

I’m a big Britax fan and this is the third Britax car seat I have purchased. But it was BY FAR the most difficult to install. The Roundabout and Decathlon allow you to flip the orientation of the latch buckles; the Boulevard does not. The distance between the LATCH connector and the seat of my car is narrow. The LATCH clip has a thick top and a thin bottom. The Boulevard forces you to insert the LATCH clip with the thick portion at the bottom (this seems upside down when you look at it). I had to use a very large flat-head screwdriver to create the space needed between the seat and the LATCH connector to allow for the thick part of the LATCH clip to fit in and lock. It took me four times as long as it normally does for me to install this car seat.
Now that it is tightly installed, adjusting the shoulder harness height is also difficult. The turn knob is pressed into the back of the car bench which makes it very difficult to turn, and the knob itself is painful to maneuver.
After having the first few car seats I installed safety-checked, I consider myself pretty good at installing them. But installing the Boulevard was incredibly difficult. I will avoid having to re-install it at all costs and I will certainly NOT buy a second one for my second child.

I recently purchased this car seat for my 6mo. old daughter, and was very excited due to all the positive reviews on saftey and comfort. Come to put her in the seat and I find myself looking for a buckle adjustment for the clip. It is so short I have to dig it out from under her, and fource them into the clip. This is terrible exacution and desighn. I am VERY disipointed to spend that much to end up retuning the seat. For all the hype about Britax, I thought it was a waist.

Got two of the Britax Boulevard Convertible car seats; one for my ten months old and one for my three year old. I have used Takata seats in the past so I know that child seats can be bulky but these seats where just massive. Especially when in the rear-facing position. When I drive; the seat is up against my headrest actually forcing me to sit in a more upright position than I would normally do. (And this is in a van.)
In terms of usability I do appreciate the adjustable back harness but the crotch strap is positioned so that the kids end up sitting on it in 90%+ of cases making it a hassle to get the kids seated.
In sum, the safety that this product provides is probably good but I am sure that there are better alternatives out there. For rear-facing I have yet not tried anything else but for forward-facing I would definitely recommend the Graco Nautilus product Graco Nautilus 3-in-1 Car Seat in Matrix, which I have recently switched to for my older kid.
