    Disadvantages Disadvantages Price is high for those with little cash to spend

    I decided to do a wee review on this car safety seat - the Brittax Eclipse. This seat performs fabulously well in my opinion so read on and find out just why I have so much faith in Brittax and the Eclipse in particular............ WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE AND WHAT FEATURES DOES IT HAVE ? This seat is one huge beast as far as its dimensions go !! its around 80 cm high and around 40 wide. It doesnt sound too bad on paper so to speak but trust me when you get it into your car its big !! The seat itself must have been on the red bull as it certainly has a whopping pair of wings on either side of it ... more

    Advantages Advantages Reassuring safety record and a well known brand name

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It isn't the cheapest out there and it may take up too much room in a smaller car

    Time has gone so quickly since our second daughter was born, and last weekend, the time came to choose her 'big girls' seat. She has been using the rear facing seat that came with the Graco travel system we bought, but her feet were hanging over the edge, and once they weigh 20lbs it is advised you move to a bigger seat which is generally front facing. After some less than encouraging experiences with our local Toys R Us, we decided that Mothercare or Halfords was probably the best bet, especially as we wanted advice on which seat would be most suitable for our car, and then expert advice on ... more

    Advantages Advantages 5 point harness, choice of fabrics,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Bulky, expensive

    When our daughter was little I knew that we would have to buy a forward facing car seat and that we would need to investigate which one we wanted. I knew I wanted a Britax one and the two which we narrowed it down to was the Renaissance and the Eclipse. Both were quite similar and were the 2 top ones it seemed in the Britax range. We popped along to Mothercare and both seats fitted in our car no problem. But when it came down to it, I found the eclipse was the one I wanted! It was fairly new on the market and was getting good reports at the time. It was quite expensive at £100 but now you can ... more

    Advantages Advantages Safe

    Disadvantages Disadvantages heavy and not cheap

    "An extremely practical child car seat", or so the brochure says, I agree too. My son is now 9 months old. He loves the car. He rides around amazed at all the moving scenery, the other cars on the road and he has found that riding in this forward facing seat has made car journeys much more fun. Gone are the days of rearward facing seats where the only view he had was the back of the passenger seat. Gone are the days of restrictive belts and a curled up posture. He is now riding high, sitting up just like his Mum and Dad and he can really interact with us now on trips. Why do you have to have a ... more

    Britax Eclipse This is a great car seat for toddlers, which I would definietlty recommend without hesitation. I bought this car seat for my son when he was about 14 months old, and chose Britax because they specialise in car safety belts. It is designed for children from 9 months to 4 years, who are between 9kg and 18kg. It can recline, and also has wings in the child’s head area, to protect from side impact. Moving the car seat I regularly have to swap this car seat between two different cars, and it is very easy to fit, and also surprisingly light to carry. Use: My son looks well ... more
