Britax Frontier 85 Car Seat Review and Giveaway

**Contest has ended!

I have always used Britax car seats.  I buy them for their reputation of safety and because of their design.  
My daughter is old enough now for a big girl  booster seat version, so we now have the new Britax Frontier 85 Combination Harness-2-Booster in our car.  

It has a forward-facing five-point harnessed weight capacity up to 85 pounds with a 20 inch shoulder harness height. The seat also serves as a vehicle belt-positioning booster up to 120 pounds. Featuring True Side Impact Protection with one-hand adjustable harness height system and designed to be the safest high capacity seat in the industry. Loaded with comfort and convenience features, such as comfort foam, integrated cup holders and fixed armrests. 

Features we like:

*The  5-Point Harness with 10 harness height positions (up to 20") and three buckle positions for a snug and secure fit as your child grows

*My daughter loves the armrests for their secure fit. But, her favorite part of the Frontier 85 are the Cup Holders.  She is so excited to put her drink in one and a snack in the other. 
I was afraid she wouldn't think it was as comfortable as her cushy Britax Boulevard.  It appeared firmer and taller to me.  The second comment she made after the "cool cup holders" was how soft and comfortable it felt.  It has thick, underlying comfort foam that provides extra comfort, encouraging your child to stay in the proper position

*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
*Harness Ultra Guard System (HUGS™) provides resistance to forward movement in the event of a crash
*Color-Coded Vehicle Belt Guides indicate the path and positioning of the vehicle seat belt
*Durable and Washable Cover.  This is a necessary feature.
*Energy-Absorbing Foam Liner (EPS) absorbs and distributes crash forces
*High Density Comfort Foam provides an extra layer of padding to gently cushion your child
*Harness-2-Booster converts to a belt-positioning booster seat
*Energy-Absorbing Base deforms in the event of a crash to absorb impact forces 
*Made in the USA with global components
*Certified for Aircraft Travel in Harness Mode.  This is a bonus, since we are going to be taking a short flight next month. I am excited to try it out.

The Frontier 85 is the perfect and safest seat for children who are ready to graduate from their car seat to a booster seat.  I am thrilled with ours and would highly recommend it as a Mom's Best Bet for safety and design! 
MSRP (USD) $279.99
