On January 16th celebrity parents descended on the Century Plaza in LA for the annual Boom Boom Room Gifting suite.
For the event, Britax was on hand to introduce them to their newest convertible car seat, the Britax Advocate CS Car Seat, which many, including Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, Chad Lowe and Ali Landry, took home.
The seat features the Britax tangle-free, five-point harness, a rear- and forward-facing recline, and accommodates children rear facing from 5 to 35 pounds and forward facing from at least one year old and 20 pounds up to 65 pounds. It is also equipped with Britax True Side Impact Protection, Versa-Tether®, HUGS™, premium LATCH connectors, and the Click & Safe® Snug Harness Indicator, which provides extra assurance when the harness is within range of appropriate snugness.
This technology is the first and only to:
- Absorb side impact crash forces before reaching the child, resulting in fewer head injuries.
- Feature robust air chambers that require up to 10 times more force to compress than competing technologies. This results in the transfer of significantly more crash force energy away from the child.
- Provide an energy-absorbing surface area along the full length of the seat, protecting the child’s head, neck and torso.
- Offer a soft, protective surface for the adjacent passenger in a side impact crash.
WIN IT!! Britax offered one (1) Growing Your Baby Reader the opportunity to win a Britax Advocate CS Car Seat.

I love that with the Latch it is easier to install and that the HUGS system adds extra cushioning to a babys chest
Wow! I could really use this carseat, my little one has almost outgrown her infant seat. I love the true side impact protection and also the click and safe harness adjuster to ensure the greatest amount of safety for my child 🙂 Keeping my fingers crossed!

The side impact technology is great. I love that you can keep the child rear facing up to 35lbs and forward facing up to 65lbs. Much better than competitors.

What a great seat!! I love so many of the features but the side impact protection is a fantastic feature! I have to say I love the idea of the harness holder as well! I was thinking of getting another Radian for baby #4 when she outgrew her infant seat but now i’m having second thoughts on that, this seat really is amazing!
I would love to win this carseat,I need to buy 2 so to win one would be amazing!The weight limits are great!Thank you
I am so trilled with the true side protection and the side impact technology feature of Britax carseat. I’m now a fan of britax. I would really love to win this for my son, providing him the best car seat out there is truly a blessing. Thanks for a chance.
I like the side impact cushioning.
I like the HUGS™ (Harness Ultra Guard System) that reduce forward head movement and cushion the chest in the event of impact.
I follow you on Twitter (naughtynad).
i am most excited about the high density comfort foam, i want my son to be cushioned!
I like the Premium, Push-Button Lower LATCH Connectors for a quick, simple, and tight installation feature the best.

Rear and Forward Facing Recline for child comfort and positioning. My little boy’s head always flops forward in his current seat – ouch!
