Britax® Galaxy360™ Slim Rotating Convertible Car Seat – Raven Black

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Britax carseat was received as part if the Stellar Product Test Panel in exchange for my review. The Britax Galaxy360 Slim Rotating Car Seat is the first Britax seat that we have used either any of our children and I can say there is a noticeable difference in product quality versus some other main brands. One area of this is in the seat cover material, as it is smooth and has a nearly silky texture. The second area that significantly stands out on this seat is in the mechanism for installation with a seat belt. Where other brands require partial disassembly, this Britax Galaxy360 simply releases forward to allow for easy install and removal. Reading other reviews, I noticed that space seemed to be an issue for other people in regard to the car seat fitting in their vehicle. I did notice that when positioned behind the driver it did require I sit closer to the steering wheel and we have a full size SUV. During this same product testing time frame we also had a car rental for a small SUV and it was nearly unusable, as the front seat had to move all the way forward. This would make the seat a problem for anyone with a sedan or small SUV. My favorite part of this seat was the mechanism to release rotation. There is a two step trigger to rotate the seat, preventing small children from being able to utilize the function, but allowing for quick and easy access for an adult or older children. All in all, we loved the seat and out toddler really seems to prefer it over their other car seat, however, this is definitely a seat that is constrained by vehicle size and type.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am quite literally blown away by everything that Britax does at this point and this is no exception. I received this seat to review maybe a week after trading in our former *other major brand* seats that no longer met the new side impact requirements and replaced them both with Britax clicktight seats, including the One4Life and Grow With Me. This seat is HIGH END. It feels like it is more than the price, the absolute EASE of the rotation is incredible…I mean you can do this with a baby in your arms. The clicktight installation is, in my opinion, the absolute best on the market. It is not only easy, but it is so secure. It reminds me so much of our now beloved One4Life, but with the added feature of rotation. Britax has some of the BEST extended rear facing limits on the market and this is no different, which is absolutely unheard of in a rotating car seat! The only reason I'd never tried a rotating seat before was the lower limits. Not with this seat! Extended rear facing capable, insanely easy (and tight) install, double cup holders that don't move easily and are washable (a parent's dream), sleek design and fabric pattern, super comfortable for the littles. I am scratching my head trying to find anything at all I'd improve about this seat. Britax, you are the greatest! PHENOMENAL job! Thank you so much to Stellar Reviews for sending us this seat.
