Britax Infant Car Seats:
BRITAX infant/child seats can be used rear facing from 5 to 40 pounds (2.3 to 18.1 kilograms) and forward facing from 1 year and 20 pounds, up to 65 pounds (1 year and 9.1 kilograms, up to 29.5 kilograms), depending on the seat. High-capacity convertibles allow your child to stay in a five-point harness through the toddler years.
Features:
· 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
· 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 Cushion Technology features energy-absorbing cushions on the exterior of the child seat to reduce side impact crash energy by 45% by diverting crash forces away from your child and providing extra protection for the adjacent passenger.
