Britax overrated/overpriced?
I have seen so many comments about Britax carseats. I have looked at them in stores and even considered purchasing them. I have absolutely no doubts that they are very safe seats. However, I think it is a disservice to people everywhere to convey the message that they are better than everything else that is available. There are many other choices that are much more cost effective and just as safe. It is like comparing a luxury sedan to a mid-priced family car. The more expensive one may indeed be slightly better, but not enough to justify spending more money than you can afford. I am not trying to discourage anyone from buying a Britax who can afford it; however, don't let their praise discourage you from buying a less expensive, but also excellent, seat. If you truly cannot afford a Britax, don't feel like you will be compromising the safety of your child by buying a less expensive one. Many others are also very good seats.
