Britax Safe-n-Sound Brava

Safety issue – I have used this for the past 18 months and my now 2yr8mth old can access the buckle to loosen the straps himself. This is a massive safety concern and I would not recommend this seat. Show details

Great car seat – I've had this seat 2 years and used it rear facing and forward facing for my son. Great seat, easy to install and seems comfy. I took all the fabric covers off and washed them in the washing machine ready for our second son. They washed well and all went back on easily. We have the Graphene for my husband's car and it is slightly more plush but… Read more

otherwise very similar. Both are great seats, the Brava a bit cheaper. It fit well in my Suzuki swift and I've since updated to a kia seltos and it fits well with another car seat next to it in the middle.

Perfect – Very confortable seat as my bub is happy in the seat and I feel safecin carrying her by myself. Its worth the price in buying this car seat for bub Show reply

Excellent car seat – I love this capsule car seat. It was amazing when my daughter was first born and super easy to use for wrapping her j and moving her to the pram etc. she is 8 months now and still fits well in it and she is still very comfortable. Would definitely buy from Britax again!! Show details ·  1

Perfect for our newborn in our compact car! – We purchased this car seat for our newborn baby. We really struggled to find one that fit nicely in our Hyandai Accent, but this one fits perfectly! Baby looks so snug and content. Show details ·  1

Unsure about this seat – Bought two of these seat after becoming a grandparent for the first time and being blessed with twins. I purchased them for my car as I look after babies during week , however harness has jammed and now I am unable to tighten it after putting baby in seat, so at the moment I am unable to take them out in car. Have emailed company and await their reply, which hopefully will be swift. I am concerned and disappointed by performance of this product. Show details

Not the best – We spent hours and hours looking car seats at baby bunting and after lot of research we bought this car seat. Happy with the safety rating and iso fix. But seat belts are too short and my baby hates it and cries every time we try to put him in. We have a cheaper car seat for our other car and overall it is better than the brava. Show details

Straps are terrible – We purchased this seat as it got a good star safety rating however the straps on the seat are SO hard to tighten and loosen to fit over the babies shoulder. Getting her int he seat is extremely hard, and the buckle always gets stuck under her. The straps are hard to tighten because the length of them are just not long enough. And to top it off, if… Read more

the straps are not loosen together at the same time one strap gets longer then the other and then the whole thing gets stuck. There is a metal latch at the back of the seat that the strap runs through and this gets all locked up and you can not loosen or tighten the straps. Not impressed with seat and wish we never bought it

Brava – Not easy to tighten straps at all. Bottom Buckle falls under baby's bottom because there is no straps to latch it to. Not easy to install. Baby did find it comfortable and would sleep happily in it but not the seat for us. Show details

Safe and Easy – Seat was very easy to install, even when I was 37 weeks pregnant! Easy to adjust for growth and to keep clean. Bonus points, we could fit our baby quite comfortably while she had to wear a Pavlik Harness for 8 weeks! Show details ·  1

Safe and easy – Very comfortable for bubs easy to adjust with growth and to put in the car. Easy to clean and I just love this product it is so light and my partner loves it too. Compared to the other car seat we have for his car Show details ·  1

The solution to getting 3 seats in a small medium car – This seat seemed to be the only way we could fit 3 car seats along the back of our i30. It has a narrow base and in combination with a booster adjacent, we can fit the 3 seats. Other than that, the seat is fine. It seems safe and my child likes it. It is easy to use. The ability to adjust the shoulder height of the straps is superior on this product than of the 5+ other child seats I have used. Show details ·  1

Simple and easy fit – This car seat fits perfectly into my car rear facing (which sometimes I find difficult with some car sizes) was super easy to get installed and even easy for myself and husband to remove and reinstall. My son has plenty of room and finds it comfortable enough to sleep most car trips. Safe and sound being a well known brand made it an easy purchase.  Show details ·  1

Great compact seat – This is a great seat. Fits well next to my Graphene and it's a bonus that I could swap the tether side to the door side to make it easier to tighten and loosen. Only negative is that the crotch fabric is not secured to the seat and needed to be repositioned every trip, so I just took it out.  Show reply

Decent car seat - easy to use but quite large in car – We bought these when Baby Bunting had a sale and have found it to be quite a good car seat for our little one. Our little one is very comfortable and secure in this and it’s easy enough to get him in and out. Only downside is that I have a small suv car and this car seat takes up a lot of room in the back seat! I heard the brand Britax was a good name to go with and I’m very happy with the product overall.  Show reply

Fits easily into a small car! – We purchased this as we have a small car (Skoda fabia) and was told by the saleslady that this was one of the smallest car seats out there. Positives: - Love that this has the extended rearward facing which was an important safety point for us - Easy to fix into the car using isofix (hubby did this) Negatives: - The latch to loosen the… Read more ·  1

shoulder straps takes a bit of getting used to to find and use, but once you know where it is, it's not a problem

- We have another Britax car seat and this does not have as much protection/ cushioning around the head area which makes sense as this is meant to be a slimmer car seat

Overall, pleased with purchase.

Great seat – I’ve had this car seat for almost 2 yrs. it’s pretty easy to instal in the car. He seems pretty comfortable in the seat and always falls asleep on trips we take. It’s pretty simple cleaning it. I like that there is cup holders he uses it all the time. Storage is simple to it’s just one piece so there. It much that can go wrong.  Show reply

Awesome for small cars! – I'm really happy with this car seat. I have a Honda Jazz and it's very compact. It's also very comfortable for my baby and he does not over heat in it like he did in his capsule. It also comes with a lot of padding in it which is removable as baby grows.  Show reply

Does the job. Slim. Easy to Install – Our bubs is 7m old, rearward facing. •Easy to install with the isofix points. • Handy you don't need to take the seat out to adjust straps & headrest, it's all done together with a push of a button. • Skinny seat so you still have room in the back to squish 2 passengers in. • Don't like how the tether strap is always loose one side &… Read more ·  1

tight on the other.

• Straps are harder to do up then my Maxi-Cosi

• Bubs is hard to get in & out, deep seat base? high sides?

Wouldn't re-purchase as I like the Maxi Cosi better
