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.
Unveiled last Spring, the Britax Advocate CS is a high weight capacity convertible car seat which introduces the revolutionary energy-managing Side Impact Cushion Technology, reducing incoming side impact crash energy by 50 percent by diverting crash forces away from the child.
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 it says it has high density comfort foam that provides an extra layer of padding to gently cushion the child. It looks amazing, I would love this for my little man!

I am a soon to be first time grama! I am so excited, and have been shopping for a car seat for the parents to have in their car. My first priority has been finding a seat with excellent side impact protection and ease of adjustment. This seat provides both, and would be a great gift for the new parents!
I hear this is the top car seat on the market and one feature I really like is the HUGS™ (Harness Ultra Guard System) reduces forward head movement and cushions the chest in the event of impact.

What a wonderful car seat
🙂 Thank you for the wonderful giveaway! 🙂
I love the Click & Safe Snug Harness Indicator
I like that it rear faces to 35 lbs. We will rear face our daughter as long as possible, so it’s great that seats are starting to have higher limits for rear facing.
