What Our Customers Say
We are incredibly grateful for the care and science Britax put into making their car seats. We knew we wanted the very safest seat available when pregnant with our baby, and our 0 to 4 year convertible Platinum seat has proven invaluable. We were in a side-on crash when our daughter was 12 months old, with the car being beyond repair and all of us suffering whiplash. However the osteopath and doctor who have seen our daughter were very impressed with the impact absorbed through the seat and the minimal injury she sustained due to the airbag technology. I feel certain her injuries would have been worse in a seat that did not minimise her head movement the way the Platinum did. Following this incredibly traumatic event, Britax have been sympathetic and very quick in putting us through the crash exchange program. I would never like to know what injury our daughter might have sustained had she not been in such a safe and well-made car seat
When I was pregnant, I spent countless hours researching. There are so many websites with so much information and the entire experience is completely overwhelming. It was only after all this researching and purchasing three different seats from Britax that I decided I was now completely loyal to Safe-n-Sound. And what a good decision that was. I was recently involved in a serious accident and my vehicle was extensively damage. I honestly don’t think my son felt a thing. His tiny little precious body (he was 17 months old) was completely fine. Now that the accident is behind us, I’m incredibly grateful to Britax for replacing my son’s car seat with a brand new one. You just don’t know what damage it could have sustained and it’s incredibly reassuring to know that his new car seat is going to work well again, should the need ever arise. So thank you Britax – for everything.
Thanks so much for making for being so helpful in replacing the seat after our accident. My Meridian AHR tilt and adjust was comfortable and really easy to use. It also performed extremely well in our recent car crash. We were towing our caravan on the freeway when we began to swerve quite rapidly between lanes and ended up crashing into the hurricane fencing and were then facing the wrong way in the fast lane. While this was quite a serious crash my son didn’t have a scratch on him and was even laughing at the end of it. I’m very thankful that I had such a quality car seat. The crash exchange is fantastic they replaced the seat and were really easy to deal with.
Thank you so much for all approval of exchange. I not only really appreciate all your time and help but I am also really glad that I bought a Britax Safe-n-Sound seat for my baby. I believe my daughter is safe and well after such big accident just because she was in Safe-n-Sound seat. We are very thankful to the Britax team for making such amazing safe product for kids. Me and my wife cannot thank you enough.
We made the choice to buy Britax Safe-N-Sound restraints for both of our children, not only for the exceptional quality (Australian made and tested), but also for the assurance of the Crash Exchange program they offer. Just like any other insurance policy we hoped to never have to use it, however the additional peace of mind simply strengthened our decision. Unfortunately late in November 2015 we were involved in a road incident where we were impacted from behind at significant speed, causing us to subsequently impact the car in front. Our car was declared a statutory write-off but the only injury our 6 month old son sustained was a minor friction burn to one side of his neck where the padded protector had slipped down, and the expected scare from the sudden jolt. Nothing else! We’ve since learnt that the belt pad has been redesigned to afford greater protection. We are confident of the quality and won’t purchase anything but Safe N Sound in the future. With the praise I’ve been singing I’m sure friends and family won’t purchase anything else either! I can’t thank Britax enough for the quality of the restraints they manufacture, and for also providing the crash exchange program to ensure compromised restraints are taken out of circulation. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
In 1980 our first daughter (of 3) was born. We were in Australia then and a friend gave us the money to buy a high chair. It was a fine metal chair with a blue denim patterned vinyl seat and backrest, with a red table. 35 years on and what an investment!! This chair has been used for our 3 girls, and our 6 grandchildren, nieces, nephews & children of friends. It’s the hardest wearing piece of furniture we have ever owned! It’s been re-upholstered but it’s still going strong. Fabulous product.
