Looking for a car seat convertible? This may be the one for you!

The Britax Boulevard ClickTight could be a good choice for you if:

✔️ you have limited space and need a compact front to back car seat
✔️ your child has a long torso and needs a long lasting car seat

You may want to reconsider if:
❌ you need to fit 3 car seats across in one row of the vehicle.
❌ you will need to wash the cover often. Most cover options are hand wash only.

This was extremely helpful. Thank you so much. Our son turned 3 today so flipped from rear facing to front!

[annes]

A great video for grandparents who try to install these newer car seats!

After you get it set up, should you pull the seat belt out til it locks? Or just leave it?

[stephaniegrasman]

Any plans to add videos for forward facing seats in pick up trucks?

[mikaelacavender-ssdj]

I loved getting to see the Boulevard in action!! We have a One4Life that we love but as we plan for baby #2 this slimmer seat is appealing! We have a ways to go rear facing, but it helps to see the next stage of installation. Thank you!

This is so helpful as it is now time for us to switch to forward facing. What do we do with the extra slack of that strap that’s hanging over the seat after you tightened the top teather?

[micaelawedge]

I never tighten the tether strap until the very end, but I do hook it to the mount. You are saying just to hang it over the seat. I haven't had any problems doing it the way I've been doing it. However, I guess I've been doing it wrong. It's a good thing I watch your videos.

I was trying to understand why Britax said NOT to use the seat anchors for kids over 35-40 lbs. Indirectly you may have answered my question, but I'd still like to know explicitly why not. I do understand that the car seat belt will hold in place, but why not double up? Thanks for video!

What is the proper position for the car seat headrest? Should it be all the way up or aligned with my child’s head?

[ashleyc.]

Is it not advised to lock the seatbelt? I know you don’t have to, but we have been locking it (taking an unnecessary step). Does the extra step compromise safety with this seat?

En dinde debe estar el nivel asi en esa posición?? Para un bebe de 8 meses

[mikenorthrup]

So I don’t have to really pull the belt tight before closing the seat? I kind of tightened it a lot and had trouble closing the seat to get it to click.

[surabhiagrawal]

In forward facing position can the carseat be reclined on the go while driving or do we have to uninstall the seat, set the recline and then install the seat again?

[lutherflagstad]

What is the anchor in the back bottom of the seat for? In what situation would we use it?

[jcnz]

I have a Peugeot Station wagon that does not have a top tether anchor - only a cargo anchor in the corner (like the one you pointed to in the video. Can I use that?

[FlyKrissy]

I thought with Britax you cannot keep the car headrest in?

[viviantobin]

I’m about to switch my son to forward facing but all of the videos I have seen in regards to the tether show a seat with an open trunk. I have an accord and my anchor is directly behind the headrest on top of the back dashboard so I can’t get into trunk and tighten the tether. It’s kind of wedged between the carseat and the back of the seat bc I can’t loop it behind the seat like most cars. It also makes it really hard to tighten the extra slack from the tether. Any tips on how to tighten and prevent the excess from being wedged in between the carseat and the seat?

[angelaperry]

Hey, I’m about to flip my son forward facing in our f150 truck. It has loops for the top tether that you feed through and hook to the loop in the adjacent seat. Is this compatible with the v shaped top tether as long as slack is removed?

[MeghanBailey-fpks]

We just flipped my son FF due to hitting 40#. What if the vehicle headrest pushes the head of the carseat forward? (we had to pull it up to get the harness fit right). We have a 2016 RAV 4 & we couldn’t find in the manual that we could take the head rest out.
