Do any of you how own the Britax Roundabout carseat have problems with the crotch strap not being long enough?

Question

Okay, I have looked at many many car seat online and at the store. I have read tons of reviews, and I think I have decided to buy the Britax Roundabout. I read some reviews where people were complaining about the Britax Marathon crotch strap (that holds the buckle) not being long enough, and I was wondering if any of you had the same problem with the Roundabout. I looked at it in the store, and the strap seemed kind of short, and I don't think it had the ability to be adjusted. I was wondering if anyone who owns this seat could let me know if they have any problems with it. I just want to double check before I spend $220 on this seat. I was thinking about the Evenflo Titan also, but my infant seat was an evenflo, and the straps always got twisted, and the Titan has the same sort of buckle system. However, the Evenflo seat has the ablity to adjust the crotch strap.

Does anyone know if this crotch strap adjusts like the Britax Decathalon?

Answer 1

I can't help you with that, but I will tell you that all of our carseats, from infant to booster seat, have been Graco and we could not be happier. They are simple, easily adjustable and very safe. They're also substantially less expensive than what you're looking at!

You also mention that you don't "think it had the ability to be adjusted." Make sure you ask someone in the department, and if they tell you it *can* be adjusted, make them show you how. You could also contact Britax directly with your question. Hope this helps!
