Britax Diplomat Convertible Car Seat
Proper Positioning for a Safe, Comfortable Ride
Proper positioning helps keep your child secure in the car, and that’s why the Diplomat is chock full of features that ensure your child is seated and strapped in at the safest angle. An easy-turn knob quickly adjusts headrest and harness height without requiring you to uninstall the seat, while the tangle-free, five-point harness ensures a snug and secure fit at multiple heights. There’s also a rear-and forward-facing recline option and soft body pillow for child comfort and proper positioning. Convenient belt holders keep the harness to the side so you can comfortably place child in the seat, and premium push-button LATCH connectors provide a quick, simple and tight installation. Finally, built-in lock-off clips tightly secure the vehicle seat belt without the need for additional parts you could misplace.

A Good Convertible Car Seat
The Britax Diplomat Convertible Car Seat is a good seat. We have him for 2 years in operation and I must say that even now there is no space problem with winter clothes (daughter is 3 years old), because you can easily remove the seat cushion is reduced (snaps). On the contrary, this cushion to sit with small, delicate child in the summer with light clothing Beautiful inside (they have a hold, if one is slightly faster in the curve and not slide back and forth). Furthermore, they can not slip out, too. The reference, especially the reduction pad is washed well and is like new again. The carrying handle is very handy when the seat is often converted into other cars. The relatively light weight was a point that has led us to purchase. We are now also the seat for our son to use (1 year) and for the “Princess” a larger.
Again, in short, a child I would immediately buy the seat w / good grip (not too tight), light weight, ease of use, the handle, beautiful design, good washability and good reviews from.

Great for small cars – lives up to description
We have a small car, and ordered this based on descriptions that it would be a smaller Britax that would fit in smaller cars. The car the seat is installed in is a Saab 92-X (wagon), which is built off the Subaru Impreza, and we have learned from several online car seat sites as well as in person from car seat sales people that Subarus are a tight fit and that many car seat models cannot be safely installed in these vehicles without losing use of the front passenger seat. We were able to fit this seat in rear-facing on a passenger side very nicely (seat works rear-facing to 35 lbs, up to 40 lbs front facing). If you are not inclined to change your vehicle — and possibly give up use of your front passenger seat — just because a car seat cannot be properly/safely installed, look into this seat! Disclaimer: We have not yet had the seat installation inspected by a traind car seat installation expert (such as local police), but I can tell based on how this seat compares with our previous one that it will be a good fit even if we need to tweak the installation for added safety.
