Customer Review: SAFETY FIRST!
The Britax Regent, is certainly a wonderful, expensive, large car seat. Having said that, it is the safest car seat out in the market aside from the Sunshine Kids car seat for children over 40 plus pounds. When searching for car seats, I was not aware of the importance of having a child in a 5 point harness for as long as possible until I read a story of a four yearl old boy who lost his life while seated in a booster seat. Studies show, that it is beneficial to have your children in a five point harness for as long as possible.

The price of this seat is hefty but nothing compares to having the peace of mind and security that your child is in the best seat available.
The seat itself is large, too large for that matter- but it sure does look and feel cozy and safe.
We bought a 2008 highlander and could barely stretch out the seatbelt to accommodate this car seat. So be warned!

I personally would buy another one for our Echo- if the car was a little larger- for now, our only choice is the Sunshine Kids and Britax for our SUV.
