Britax seats in Prius? Any recommendations, Brtiax or otherwise?

I have a honda fit (same size as a prius) and have had a heck of a time finding a seat to fit this, especially with 3 kids! I had the graco comfortsport, it didnt fit well either rear or forward facing, went with the graco myride 65, same issue and its HUGE! tried a cheap cosco from walmart and it fit fairly well forward and not too bad rear facing but it was so flimsy I didnt feel it was going to hold up in case of a crash. Alot of my friends have the britax marathon or advocate so I decided it was time to try one but our finances dont allow a new seat. I found a used (spare seat that was never actually used) for super cheap from a local mom so I bought that and it fits PERFECTLY in our fit. It was a bit hard to get to fit that way so I had to roll up a towel but he will be forward facing pretty soon so not that major of a problem too me, all our seats have to have rolls. I would recommend this seat in a heartbeat, Im not a fan of the colors of any of the britaxs but you can always find a cover on ebay to custom fit! I also love the velcro to hold the straps so Im not digging around under his butt for the straps. I have a 14 month old who is 25 pounds and 33" tall.

That's how I use mine. The britax adapters with the britax chaperone seat don't quite fit easily with the baby seat in the upper/rear facing and toddler/lower/forward facing position. If you pull the front seat forward just a bit as you're setting the infant carrier in place, you can make it click into place securely.

We're having the *exact* same problem as scientific illustrator. The Britax Roundabout will not sit securely in the middle of our Prius. The car seat base is more narrow than the middle cushion so the car seat tilts and wobbles. We are trying to return the Roundabout and are looking for suggestions on which convertible car seat will work. Please advise!! Thank you

The Britax seat will fit the B-Agile without this adapter. I purchased it because I have the Chicco carseat.

I bought the Happ-e seat for my fiance, she uses it in her Prius and loves it. No problem!

Hello... I have a fleet of prius models from generation 1 2002 model, a 2005 and a 2008 gen 2, and a 2012 plug in and a 2013 V wagon. I do not know of a Prius B??? Prius C is the entry model. Then the original and the V is the new wagon. However, the fit of the Husky liners is very satisfactory considering the price point and the other available choices and their respective pricing. I have this brand in several of the Prius models in my fleet.

Yes, on the baby jogger website there is a Britax B safe car seat adapter. It is specific to the britax. I believe it is under $30 to get. Hope that helps.

Honestly, I would contact the company for exact dimensions. The seat is quite wide and I'm not familiar with the interior of a Prius.

I don't know about the Britax Bsafe... We used it with a Graco Snugride and it worked great. I remember thinking it was really expensive for what it really was, but after we had it, we would not have given it back. It worked great and felt really secure (but made the stroller a little top heavy on uneven terrain). Maybe you can compare the attachment points of the Graco and yours and decide. Also, have a look at the website www dot bobgear dot com. They will most likely list which adapter will fit your carseat. That's how we did it. Good luck.

Yes, you can use it for either seat. It comes with bungee cords that attach to headrests, and you can attach other cords of different sizes if your vehicle requires this. I use mine in a Prius and in a Mazda CX9 and am very happy with it. If you contact the maker, they are very helpful and will accommodate special requests. It is a very flexible unit already.

Deluxe seats are definitely worth it. 330 is too small for two people. I also have a 370 which is what u need to seat two comfortably.

I have the Graco Nautilus 3-in1 car seat. I bought the Brica Roll 'n Go & it was a lifesaver going through the airports with my 2-year-old granddaughter. I would recommend this item to others.

I have Britax seats for my twins and they do not have cup/snack holders. It is the only thing I would change about the seats. (I have the marathons).

I called Britax a few days ago (10/14/11) and the part numbers have changed so Amazon is clearing out the old stock. That's it! There are no new safety features. The only issue to pay attention to is that car seats have expiration dates, 6 years for a Boulevard from the date of construction so the new version may have a few more months in it before the expiration date.

Sorry for the delay in responding. I only can say before I purcahsed my tetrex I reviewed many of the install youtub videos to look at the attachment options. I am not familar with the Prius enough to comment either way. You might want to go directly to customer service Tetrex for assistance. Good luck

We just received this stroller and it fit in the hatch of my scion (I had to take off the canopy). As small as my car is I would imagine that the prius would have a bigger truck. I looked at joovy.com and when I went to the specific stroller the specifications listed the folded dimentions which helped me know it would fit.
