Great quality
Thus is our second Britax convertible seat. We had a Boulevard for 8 years, no accidents, it survived wonderfully. This seat is the same design as our old one except it doesn’t have the extra side impact protection. I actually prefer that, because with those sides, Boulevard was difficult to take on a plane. The Emblem is also a bit lighter, also an advantage when traveling with it. I picked specifically the old style buckles, not the new single-click ones, because those harnesses have been reported to have safety issues. Also I like that this seat is much more reasonable on the price, while at the same time, I do not see any difference in quality of materials, craftsmanship or convenience than our old Boulevard. And, it tested the best in safety ratings, outcompeting many more expensive models out.On ease of use: if it’s your first carseat, it’ll be a challenge no matter what until you get the hang of it. I couldn’t even get the seat buckles right when we took our baby from the hospital the first time - a nurse had to help me… Read the manual, watch a video, and once you get the hang if it, installation is 10-15 mins, pretty straightforward and pain free.The buckles and height adjustment is very convenient. I have washed the covers and buckles on this seat multiple times (the buckles ARE removable and washable.) - On Hand wash/gentle cycle. Everything looks like new after you wash it. It’s a long and complicated process to take all the covers off, but that’s because they are made to be super comfortable, well attached, and safe. Once you’ve done it a few times though, it’s not too bad. But I love that EVERY part, cover, and crevice can be reached and wiped, getting the seat to like new.Very happy with this seat, highly recommend!

My pick for Safety !
When I first became a mom and was on the hunt for the right car seat I went to a nearby store to put my hands on some options. The Britax Emblem has much higher quality clips and rubber slides + the cushions for the harness portion than the others that were available. To me these would help relieve pressure points your child experiences in the event that they are in an accident because the nice width creates more surface area. I love the steel frame and crumble zone. These points alone were sellers for me, but I also think that the fabric and side impact portion of these car seats are great. I appreciate the work that went into making these! I also appreciate the Britax made videos on Youtube that help you see proper installation. I was super nervous at first that I'd get something wrong. Installation however is very easy with these. I always have a little more trouble with all car seats getting them just right in the rear facing mode, but this one is thankfully not a hard install so just unbuckle and tilt to your correct position. I don't really use the latch system because the seat belts have always been easier for me and my vehicles. Between having another child on the way and multiple vehicles that need car seats I now own a small fortune worth in these lol. But they are worth the added safety I think they provide. Thank you Britax!

No fire retardant option
As someone who really wanted to avoid the chemical flame retardants common in car seats (which I believe even many fire professionals have disavowed), I am so pleased to say that the foam and certain fabrics available from Britax have allowed me to do this.AND I didn't have to pay an astronomical premium to get this. There was a great sale for car seats during September which is apparently Child Passenger Safety Month...Furthermore, the safety ratings I found on the Emblem were really good. So win-win-win for my shopping list.Upon receiving the car seat, I found it easy to install, not overly heavy (although like many convertible seats I would not want to move it from one car to another regularly), and my child seems very comfortable in it. We would get another without hesitation at this point.Only "negatives":- It only has 3 reclining positions which could be a deal breaker for some, but has posed no issues for us.- The strap to tighten and loosen the buckle when getting the child in and out of the car seat is not as accessible and is a little stiffer than the Graco we are replacing. This is a little inconvenient, but I prefer the safety features of this car seat so much that I don't care. EDIT: I figured out one the straps was twisted and once I straighten it out, this issue vanished!- No cupholder. We don't use this feature anyway so again no issue for us.EDIT: One actual negative for us. This fabric does seem to pill and I haven't even washed it...really a bummer, but with all the pros, I would still buy

Impressive
This car seat is impressive. It’s very secure! It does go forward facing or rear facing. All of our car seats, stroller, travel bags are Britax. We use this car seat for travel and it locks in quickly.

Comfy but straps twist easy
The seat seems comfortable and well cushioned, my one year old doesn’t mind being in it. The straps twist very easily though for some reason. We have it in an SUV and it feels like it’s a big it a tight fit to get him into the seat. Once he’s in it’s fine though!

Britax is rated one of the highest in safety!!
Not very heavy, easy to install into your car, many easy features for a convertible car seat! Can’t wait to watch my little one use this for years to come. Can be rear facing up to 50 lbs!!!

Safe, light car seat.
I have the britax boulevard but needed another car seat for husbands car and to use while flying so wanted something with the same safety rating but lighter. This seat is it. It is only 19lbs but has same safety rating as her everyday britax. Plus it was easy to carry in britax travel bag as a backpack. Added bonus she likes both seats.

Easy install, sturdy design
We have had Safety 1st and Graco car seats before, but this is our first Britax for our 3 year old. I am so impressed. It is great quality! I purchased it because of its crash test rating online and am so pleased with how comfortable it seems for my daughter! The install was super easy in our ‘20 Toyota RAV-4, so I’m not sure what the other reviewers experienced. My only gripe is that it doesn’t have a cup holder but since purchasing, I’ve found options that can be added on. Not ideal, but everything else is great so far.
