Easy to Install
June 20, 2015
This car seat is just one and a half years newer than the same model I have for my son. My daughter graduated to her big girl car seat, and this one is much easier to install!

Difficult to install
June 19, 2015
When the belt is pulled tight, it's difficult to click the seat down to get the tightest fit. I'm 140 pounds and had to sit in the seat and bounce on it a few times to get it to click down. The release for the click tight is also difficult to release when the seat is using the click tight feature. I wouldn't purchase this seat again.
Pros
  • Seat seems comfortable.
Cons
  • Difficult to install.

Great seat!

The Advocate click tight is a great seat. My son was starting to fuss in his infant seat so we upgraded and have no regrets. It is sturdy, the seat is well cushioned. It is easy to install. No need to tighten latch or seatbelt a anymore! I got a tight install with good recline on the first try. It is a large heavy seat so may not fit fully reclined in all vehicles but we couldn't be happier with our purchase right now.
Pros
  • Easy to install. No breaking a sweat with installation
Cons
  • large and heavy

  • Has 7 differnt recline positions

Worth the $
June 6, 2015
This seat is worth the extra money. We opted for this seat because of all the safety features. It was relatively easy to install and looks/feels great. For the most part it is easy to get my child in and out. Like any seat rear facing seat, it is a bit awkward to release the straps when removing the child from the seat but it is totally do-able.

All around best seat
June 6, 2015
Britax car seats are the only car seats we trust to keep our children safe. Our two older children enjoyed many years in their Britax seats and now, 8 years later, we needed one for our baby. I never felt there was any room for improvement with the Britax seats we had in the past, so I was unprepared to receive this seat. It's absolutely amazing! It has everything we loved about our past seats but now Britax has made the seat so user friendly that you can't make a mistake during installation or use if you simply take a moment to read the directions. It's fail proof. The seat is huge, so beware if you have a small car and I can't imagine it would fit most airplane seats, but it is by far superior quality and feels like a protective shell around my daughter. Simply fantastic!! Worth every penny!!

Safest Restraint on the Market and Easiest to Install
June 5, 2015
We purchased this restraint for our daughter who is 8 months old. She was in a Britax B-safe and we loved it. She was getting quite heavy to carry so we started looking for a convertible. WE LOVE THIS SEAT. It is very easy to install (please read the directions and always have it checked by a CPST). She loves the soft fabric/cushioning and that it is not too hot. We chose the Limelight pattern because it is light in color (for the hot summer months) and because it's just adorable, too! We feel extremely confident knowing that she as secure and happy in the back of our SUV in her Advocate CT. It's worth every dime. You cannot place a price on safety. Britax is the best!! Thank you!

Our favorite seat!
June 3, 2015
This seat is an absolute breeze to install with the seat belt, it honestly couldn't be any simpler. Very well padded, easy to adjust the harness strap height and tightness. I highly recommend this seat!
Pros
  • Easy to install
  • Long lasting
Best Uses
  • Extended rear facing, this seat has one of the tallest height capacities for rear facing available in the US!

Safe and comfortable BUT hard to remove.
May 27, 2015
The number one reason we went with the Britax Advocate is because of safety. We feel she is not only safe but comfortable too. The reason I choose the "clicktight" is because I thought it would be easy for me to install and uninstall if needed and have the assurance that I was doing right. Unfortunately, I don't have enough grip strength to turn the dial to be able to release the car seat. I do not have arthritis and I wouldn't consider myself puny by any means. This is my only complaint, but it is a huge disappointment considering I feel like this was one of their selling points. I would recommend Britax in general due to safety, which is a number one priority but what good is a car seat that I can't remove on my own? So for review purposes I will put no.

Absolutely Best Carseat available hands down!
May 24, 2015
I have a Britax Marathon Clicktight for my 18mo old son in his mother's sedan and we love it! I have a BMW coupe currently and decided to get a 2nd carseat for my car. I bought a RECARO Performance RIDE Convertible Car Seat from Babies R Us online and when I got it and installed it in my car I was so disappointed! The Recaro was too big and bulky for either cars, and no matter how I installed it the seat would move much more than 1inch in every direction when facing forward. I took the Recaro back to Bablies R Us for a complete refund. When I searched for Britax online I was happy to find the Britax Advocate at Albee BABY for much cheaper than Babies R Us! I ordered it, shipping was perfect and installation was just as simple as our Britax Marathon Clicktight! I love the Advocate because it's the safest seat that Britax makes currently and it looks beautiful and fits perfectly in my back seat! Eventually I'll be getting a bigger vehicle but for now I'm confident my son is safe and secure in both our cars! Thank you Albee BABY for making shopping for my baby boy more affordable, You have gained a new customer and I will DEFINITELY spread the word to my friends with kids!!!

Overall a good seat
May 24, 2015
Overall the seat is well constructed. The reason for not having a 4 or 5 star is due to the slight frustration with the restraint belt and the child harness release. The restraint belt once tightened is very secure. If you need to remove the car seat for some reason you will be in for a challenge though. After releasing the tension provided by the click tight system the buckle on the seat is nearly impossible to loosed by your hand. Pressing down and pulling on the buckle will not allow the belt to move as advertised in the manual. You will need to either reverse feed the slack in or attempt work the back of the buckle with needle nose pliers to loosen the below ( I do not advise needle nose pliers since this could jepordize the integrity of the belt if not careful). Lastly the child harness release button is buried in a narrow channel. I get the design is to ensure that the child is not able to release themselves but more room should be given for those with thicker fingers. The problem I run into is due to the depth and narrow channel of the release I feel I am not able to depress the button all the way resulting the harness not releasing evenly. Other than these two issues its a great seat.

Best seat ever!
May 23, 2015
I've had to replace this seat three times now. For some reason people like to reared my daughter and I. But I love this seat so much! Every time I've had to replace it I go back and forth with the diono and this, and always pick Britax. So easy to install!! My husband isn't capable of using the latch system because he has bad fine motor skills. This is the perfect seat for him! The only downfall is its weight:(
Pros
  • Easy install
  • Sturdy
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Heavier than a tow truck :(

very secure
May 20, 2015
My baby seems very comfortable and secure there. I was afraid it's too tight for him and very sweaty because of it thickness but so far my baby doesn't complain for that. It's very easy to adjust his size, too. only the problem is the fabrics are too thick and will give me some problem to take them off and wash in the laundry.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
May 17, 2015
This is absolutely perfect! I feel so comfortable knowing my son is safe facing forward. Although too long being rear facing, I didnt feel ready facing him forward until this seat. Yes its very pricey, but completely worth it. Heavy but very durable. I feel comfortable putting in other cars. Fits in my car great! Tough to figure out but very easy to learn.

Still new.. Only one week but love it overall
May 7, 2015
Well only been using this for a week but I love how comfy my little one seems to be. Things are still new so still getting used to it all. Overall it is super easy to install and to hook up the children in when it is reat facing. Love the tilting option which is great when having to switch to different styles of vehicle where the vehicle seat is angles a lot or to the ones that are flat. I will be getting a second one of these car seats for my other daughter (twins) very soon! Would definitely recommend to others
Pros
  • Tilt
  • Easy cleaning seat covers
  • Easy to install
  • Quick to size/adjust for child
Cons
  • The click tight turn lever is slightly tough to turn sometimes.. But maybe that's a good thing too..

They've fixed the annoying features from previous versions!
May 5, 2015
Installation of our Britax seats has always been easy (we have 5+), but sometimes they would slide a bit, regardless of how tightly we'd secured them. We've placed 'grippy/anti-slide' material under our other seats to solve this issue. The newest Advocate ClickTight has a slightly rubberized base, however. NO slippage! The ClickTight installation is SO EASY; one step and a click and you're done. The seat seams more comfy than previous versions and uses a fabric combo that seems even more durable. There is now a storage spot for the left-over tether strap, as well. These updates fix the things that have bugged us, until now, about our beloved Britax seats. High five!!! to the 2015 Britax Advocate ClickTight design team :)

After months of research and reading, we went with the Advocate b/c of the enhanced safety features as well as the "easy to install" factor. My only wish was that they had other color options instead of all black.

Best baby purchase I have made in the last 19 Months! I am so thrilled with this seat. This is a very heavy seat that you can tell was made to give the best protection possible. The side impact wings are thick and the seat itself is very solid. It would not be a good choice for fitting three across, but two of these can fit in a backseat. The material is almost slick looking but seems like it would hold up well over time and not let a baby get too hot in the summer. The height for rear facing is great and the multiple recline angles make it easy to adjust to your car. The handle to adjust the harness height and length move very easily. The click and safe snug indicator does click too early for my daughter but it does get fairly close to being the right tightness. This car seat beats the Chicco by a long shot. I am very satisfied with this seat, and you can not beat Albeebaby's prices!
Pros
  • Almost perfect seat
Best Uses
  • Extended rear facing
Cons
  • LATCH is not easy to use with this seat

Very safe seat!
April 18, 2015
I researched and researched convertible car seats before finally deciding on this one, and I'm so glad we chose this! After looking at all our options, in my opinion this was the safest. I loved the fact is has the impact pads. I feel that my baby is very safe. My son is 16 months old and we finally transitioned from an infant seat, and he seems to be liking it as well! I only gave it 4 stars because there is no cup holder. We bought the one that attaches so the seat, but its very filmsy; built into the seat would've been much better. I've seen many people say this seat is heavy, and it is but by no means is it too heavy to pick up. Not an issue at all even when switching it from cars, however if you were planning on bringing this seat to travel with this wouldn't be a wise choice. My FAVORITE thing about this seat is it's SO easy to install!! LOVE the clicktight seat!

Prefer older model
April 18, 2015
Let me begin by saying that my family has 4 Britax car seats. I love their car seat and the safety features Britax offers. Having said that, this model, compared to the last, is EXTREMELY difficult to install. For starters, the latch to lift the seat is faulty. Once you open the seat, you've got to press a metal hole inside for the bar to snap. For my seat at least, if you don't press the hole to snap the bar, the seat won't lock back down into place. Secondly, the new anchor system is entirely too difficult to loosen and unhook from my car's (a GMC Acadia with captain chairs) seat. I would love for Britax to address these issues, because aside from this, this seat is perfect.

we looked at many car seats before buying this, reading ton of reviews and Britax was always the top recommendation. And now we know why. This is a great car seat.
Pros
  • Durable, well made with all the safety measures.
Cons
  • This is VERY HEAVY so you will need an extra car seat for airline travel. We travel often and even bought a travel bag for this, but its heavy as carrying ton of rocks on your back. And it will also be too big for a compact sized car, I would say.

Remarkable car seat. It fits our son perfectly, and does well in a vehicle accident. Our son was not harmed during the incident. The seat absorbed all impact, while I was injured. We were so happy we bought two more for both of our vehicles. Easy to install, and remove.

I choose the Britax Advocate ClickTight after looking for more brands. Even if I had Britax Infant car seat I was attracted by several designs of other brands but I didn't purchase one before "feeling" and touching its. And when I was in Buy Buy Baby store I felt in love of Britax Advocate Clicktight because it seemed to me so safe, I liked the design, the colour, the easy installation....but I didn't like the price so much. But on my way home I checked on Albee Baby and I saw the difference(100 $) plus that with Albee I have it at home. So....I bought it, and I am so glad, my baby seems to feel so comfortable in it, is so easy to install, is enough to watch the video online, is so cute, I can put the baby without leaning down (I have back pain after pregnancy), I red that is the safest, the belts adjust very quickly so I am so satisfied with my purchase

I really like this car seat. I feel like my child is secure and surrounded by comfort and safety features. The only part that irritates me is that the lever to recline the seat is so difficult to use. Also, you have to basially take the seat out of the car to change the recline settig.

I've only had this car seat for a few weeks, but it's very sturdy and seems super safe. I got it for my 5 month old son so he would be better protected in case of a side impact crash and I feel like he is 100% safer and he fits in it very nice and snug. He seems very comfortable in it. It is very easy to install and adjust.

This is hands down the BEST decision we made!
March 4, 2015
Everything about this carseat is EASY, so plush and comfortable from top to bottom, and SAFE. Even adjusting the head restraint size is simple: press the button and the entire thing just glides up and down. Most carseats we've tried take force and a few curse words, and taking the whole thing apart to reset the seat belt straps. Even reclining is the simplest we've ever used... pull, and the whole thing just slides right on back for you! The plush padding is so incredibly soft and cozy, and it also helps keep baby warm (so don't bundle them up too much, they'll overheat!). It's a tad on the wide side, because of the side impact, so be prepared for that. Just one more reason to know that your child is safe. I've never been so impressed with a carseat in my life- only downside, I wish they came in a better variety of material choices. We settled on all black for our daughter, because there was only one "girl" fabric option, and we didn't care for it. If you have any doubts, take my word for it. The easiest, smooth flowing, safest, most comfortable carseat purchase ever. Worth the extra money.
