Stand Out Features of this Car Seat

SafeWash fabric option is flame-retardant free

Britax is moving over to all flame retardant-free fabrics. But until the other fabric options are out of stock, make sure to choose a version with SafeWash fabric if this is important to you. Cover removal: The removable cover is washer-and-dryer friendly for easy cleanup!

Seat is good for you if 

hearts-suit

You have a tall child.

With a harness height of 20″ at the tallest setting, this is the highest harness height available today. This makes it a great option for kids with tall torsos. It still has a 49″ standing height limit, like the majority of the harness seats on the market. If you want a seat with a limit higher than that, check out the Chicco MyFit.

Use caution if

c-warning

Your vehicle has non-removable headrests

If your vehicle has non-removable headrests that tilt forward, we do not recommend that you buy the Britax Grow With You. It may not be compatible with the vehicle. You can check this post for car seat options that do work with non-removable headrests.

c-warning

You need to fit 3 people in one row of the vehicle.

Since this seat is 19″ wide, it’s not a good option for caregivers who are looking to fit 3 across in their vehicle. You can find narrower options here that will work better for that situation.

c-warning

Quirks to be aware of

c-question

V-Shaped Tether

The top tether should always be used when a child is forward-facing. Britax’s top tethers are v-shaped instead of the typical top tether design. Generally this kind of top tether will go around both sides of the vehicle’s headrest.

Installation Information

Airplane Use

The Britax Grow With You is an aircraft-approved car seat in harness mode. Like all booster car seats, the booster mode of this seat does not have aircraft approval. See the manual for installation on a plane as it differs from installation in the vehicle. But 24.6 pounds, it is one of the heaviest options available.  For help with all things airplane travel and car seats, check out our Wheels Up Course and private Facebook group.

SITS Bottom Line

The Britax Grow With You is a good option for caregivers who are looking for a forward-facing only car seat as long as their vehicle has removable headrests and there is no need to fit 3 across in the vehicle. It’s not as easy to install as the Clicktight versions of this seat,  but for kids who have tall torsos, it can be a more budget-friendly option.
