Britax Roundabout 55 Convertible Car Seat - Onyx

The Britax Roundabout 55 is now available for pre-order at Galt Toys + Galt Baby. We expect our first shipment to arrive in mid August 2010.

The Britax Roundabout 55 is a convertible car seat that accommodates babies weighing 5 to 40 pounds in a rear-facing position, and kids from 1 year old and 20 pounds to 55 pounds in a forward-facing position. The shell provides support for your toddler's sleepy head, and the deep side walls increase the amount of side-impact protection around her head and body.

SafeCell™ Technology features SafeCells designed to compress in a crash, significantly lowering the center of gravity and counteracting the forward rotation of the child seat which normally propels the child toward the front seat.

Integrated Steel Bars strengthen the connection to the vehicle and reduce forward flexing of the child seat during a crash.

Patented, 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.

• Side Impact Protection comprised of deep side walls lined with energy-absorbing EPP foam distributes crash forces, shields from vehicle intrusion, and contains the head, neck and body
• Tangle-Free, Five-Point Harness distributes crash forces across the strongest parts of the body and provides a secure fit
• 55-pound Weight Capacity for safety and comfort as your child grows
• Two Buckle Positions for your growing child
• Infant Positioning Insert may be necessary for small infants to achieve a snug fit of the harness around your child (sold separately)
• Premium Lower LATCH Connectors for a quick and simple installation featuring a push button for easy release
• Built-in Lock-Offs ensure a snug lap and shoulder belt installation with minimal effort
• Anti-Slip, Contoured Base grips and protects the vehicle seat while offering optimum vehicle fit
• Rear and Forward Facing Recline for child comfort and positioning
• Convenient Harness Holders keep harness straps out of the way when placing your child in the car seat
• High Density Comfort Foam provides an extra layer of padding to gently cushion your child
