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 am most excited about the Side Impact Cushion Technology.
I am super excited that the forward facing goes up to 65 pounds. I have a disabled child and he will be using his carseat for a long time.

I am impressed with the safety features, in particular the side-impact technology.

I like the Built-in Lock-Off(s) feature.
I like the fact that they cushion the sides so that passengers NEXT to the seat are protected in the event of a crash.
I love that it goes all the way up to 65 pounds! Thank you for the chance to win.
The side impact cushion technology seems like a fantastic idea!
The feature that excites me the most is the ease of installation. No car seat is safe unless it is correctly installed so this is an important issue especially for parents who must move the carseat from one vehicle to another frequently.
I love the high weight limit and the side impact cushioning!!!
Wow! It holds your child up to 65 pounds. That is wonderful. Hope I win it!!
I like the fact that there is an Infant Body Pillow for infant positioning and a custom fit! AND that it is for babies 5#+. Being a mother of a preemie, I truly appreciate that!
Convenient Harness Holders keep harness straps out of the way while placing child in the car seat – A great feature for concerned parents.
I love the way it grows with your child so you can get maximum use out of it. Also, the safety features, like sitting securely in all cars, etc is very important to us – this is our FIRST!

I like how the belt is easier to close than other car seats and the 5 point harness system.
Hands down, the “HUGS™ (Harness Ultra Guard System) that reduce forward head movement and cushion the chest in the event of impact” is my favorite feature.
