Help keep your infant safe, secure and comfortable while riding in the car with the Companion infant car seat from Britax. Made for babies weighing four to 22 pounds with a height up to 30 inches, this rear facing seat is easy to install and remove, and it's loaded with features designed to protect, support and cushion your baby when traveling.  | The Britax Companion offers: - True Side Impact Protection.

- Infinitely adjustable base height for personalized fit
|  | | 
Deep side walls and head support provide True Side Impact Protection. (Plum color shown.) View larger. | Practical, Comfortable Design For Easy Installation
The Companion features push-button release LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) connectors renowned for their flexibility and ease of use. These connectors also come complete with strap storage so you can install the Companion through traditional seat belts if you wish. The built-in lock-offs provide a tight, secure installation in minutes, and are also easy to reach. Plus, you'll never have to worry about missing parts! To help ensure convenient and efficient transport, the smooth, contoured and adjustable carrying handle has a soft grip. Additional Britax Companion Seat Bases can be purchased for the multi-car family that only wants to move the seat between vehicles. An in-car base is a great feature when you want to transport a sleeping baby from car to destination without waking them up. Custom-Fit For Optimum Safety
The recline adjust knob helps the seat perfectly fit your vehicle by allowing you to make needed adjustments with just one hand. The soft and supportive straps fit snugly over your baby's shoulders, collarbone and hips to provide a stable fit, and they can be quickly adjusted by a one-pull strap. The tangle-free, five-point harness offers three harness heights and is made of durable polyester webbing to guard against wear and tear. And the head pad has adjustable, air-filled pockets that you can expand or deflate to custom fit around your baby's head to ensure comfort, especially at nap time. For added convenience, the infinitely adjustable base height guarantees a personalized fit, and the plush, removable fabric cover is washable. True Side Impact ProtectionTM for Peace of Mind
The Companion also gives you the additional peace of mind of engineered True Side Impact ProtectionTM. Deep side walls and head support provide advanced cushioning and shock-absorption in side impact collisions, helping to reduce the risk of injury to your child. Additionally, EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) impact foam lining around the baby's head and torso absorbs energy in side and rear impacts, cradles baby's head to keep it away from protruding parts, cushions violent side to side movements, and creates a comfortable resting spot. An anti-rebound bar in the car seat's base also helps reduce movement in the event of an accident. Accessories and Options For an Enjoyable Ride
Car trips should be pleasant for babies, which is why the Companion comes with extra shoulder room and soft shoulder pads, a belly pad, and an adjustable sun canopy for UV protection from every angle. For babies weighing less than seven pounds, the Britax Companion Low Birth Weight Foam can be purchased separately to provide additional support. The Companion is also compatible with the Britax Vigour and Britax Preview strollers, making it a snap to enjoy a complete "grab and go" travel system as your baby grows. The Companion is also certified for airplane travel, and includes a base that conveniently stays in the car, so you can transport a sleeping baby without worrying about waking them up. Weighing 16 pounds and measuring 18.75 x 16.5 x 28.5 inches (WxHxD), the Companion also meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 213, a set of exacting quality control and safety standards for child restraint systems. It comes with a 1-year limited warranty. The Companion is also available in the following color schemes: Black/Tan, Unity Blue, Plum/Tan, Aqua/Black. What's in the Box
Car seat, shoulder pads, one belly pad, and an adjustable sun canopy.

 Britax Quality & Safety July 18, 2008
You can't go wrong with any Britax product. This infant carseat is somewhat cumbersome, but it is for the baby's safety and protection. The cover is easy to wash and looks brand new after it air dries. Another great feature is that the sun shade gives ample coverage to shade my baby. The Peg Perego infant carseat did not have a large sunshade (I had the Peg for my first child). I also like that I can put the Britax Companion carseat in another car, which does not require the base (you can't do that with the Peg). I also love that this infant car seat attaches to the Britax Preview and Vigour strollers without special clips.
Satisfied July 16, 2008
The Britax car seat is well worth the money. The seat offers great head support and securely holds my child. I am extremely satisfied and would recommend to anyone considering this car seat.
 Too Big for most cars June 2, 2008

This car seat has a bounce rod on the back which makes it too big to fit in most of the cars. I was advised by the Plano Police Car Seat Inspections to return it
I will not own any other brand!!!!! April 18, 2008

I was about 3 months pregnant when my co-worker forwarded me a youtube video on defective car seats. She had a 2 year old at the time and was looking into buying a new one. Ironically, someone emailed her the video link the day she decided to browse for them. It was one of the saddest story I had seen in a long time! A little boy was killed because of a defective car seat. After the parents did research on many, many name brands, Britax was about the safest one around. They wanted to warn other parents in memory of their baby boy. They also set up a car seat donation list for parents who could not afford to buy one. After doing my own research, I very pleased & decided to get one as time got closer for our baby girl's arrival. Little did I know, my co-workers threw us a baby shower and bought it for us. I have absolutely no complaints! Its very sturdy and I feel very confidant that we have her in it. I would certainly recommend it to any, and everyone! It is very pricey, but well worth it. You can't put a price on your children! The best thing anyone can do for a friend or family member that is expecting, is to all go in halves to make sure their loved ones are riding safe! Here is the link! Hope all of you guys searching will take a look at this video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ-5SBT8_1o
Great Car Seat April 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I really like this car seat. The head rest especially. It really holds a newborns head in place. It does get in the way a little when you are putting the straps on the baby's arms, but not enough to not love the car seat. I especially love the color for my little girl. All the pink car seats seem to get really dirty quickly. This color hides all the stains. The five point harness is also an easy way to put the baby in and out. It is very easy to get in and out of the base. I really recommend this car seat.
