The Good – Very easy LATCH or Belt Installation; Height adjustment button with five positions for proper seat angle and positioning; Audible click to confirm correct fitting of seat into base.

Where to Buy the Britax B-Safe Base
This is a relatively cheap car seat base when compared with its competitors (Maxi Cosi Mico is $90, Chicco Keyfit 30 is $85).
If you need the flexibility of being able to install your baby’s Britax B-Safe infant car seat into multiple vehicles, this base is a must have item. Whilst it would be technically possible to continuously remove and re-install the original base into different vehicles, this would be very time-consuming and inconvenient.
