The Regent is designed for larger children, up to 80 pounds. (Huntington color shown.) ,br>View larger. | Quick and Easy Installation The Regent features a tangle-free, five-point harness made with rough and tough polyester that's designed to resist wear and tear. The push-button LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) connectors help secure your child on every trip. The harness also attaches quickly and easily so you won't have to worry about struggling with endless straps or complicated procedures, and convenient belt holders keep the harness to the side so you can place the child in the seat. Just one pull makes any necessary adjustments. Additionally, the harness fits snugly over the shoulders, collarbone, and hips, and the four shoulder slots allow a better fit as your child grows. HUGS for Optimum Safety and Support When it comes to safety, the Regent boasts an innovative protective design and loads of extras that give parents peace of mind on car trips. First, the patented floating HUGS (Harness Ultra Guard) system exceeds U.S. safety standards by reducing forward head movement as it gently cushions the neck and chest with soft padding--a feature that's particularly important both in the case of an accident and during nap time. Made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) and extra thick comfort foam, this system better distributes the webbing loads, reducing head movement and minimizing harness irritation on baby's neck in case of an impact. HUGS also reduces the chance of improperly positioning the chest clip. Versa-Tether for Additional Security The Regent also offers Britax's patented Versa-Tether, an anchor aid that provides additional security in the forward facing position for children weighing more than 50 pounds. The Versa-Tether fastens the top of the car seat to factory installed automobile anchor points, reducing the possibility of a head injury in the event of impact. Comfort Features for an Enjoyable Ride Riding in the car should be fun and enjoyable for your child, and the Regent offers comfort features that help make even long trips a pleasure. First, two mesh pouches and cup holders keep snacks, drinks and toys close at hand. Secondly, the cushioning and plush padding are made to be incredibly supportive, so your child can play, sleep or simply look out the window without strain or discomfort. Weighing 25 pounds and measuring 21.5 x 30 x 25 inches (WxHxD), the Regent features a versatile, user-friendly design that will truly grow with your child. The Regent is also available in Onyx and Huntington, and comes with a 1-year limited warranty.

The Regent is not as huge as I feared! January 8, 2008 J. Benoit (Orlando, FL USA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
We just got our new Britax Regent. I had read a lot of reviews and was expecting a giant behemoth. Don't get me wrong, it is large, wide and heavy--However, our previous car seat was a Britax Marathon, and the Regent actually sits a bit lower in my car than the Marathon did, so I think my rear window visibility is better than it was with the Marathon. The Regent also seems to fit more tightly. I have a 2007 4-door Honda Civic and have this seat in the center back, and it fits just fine. I have a very tall 4 1/2 year old, who weighs 40 lbs, and she looks like she'll be able to use this for a very long time. Also, her little plastic cups with lids/straws fit nicely in the netting pockets on the side, so she likes that. I am very happy with this seat!!
Great seat but massive May 1, 2008 L. Watchorn 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We bought this seat for our 2-year old daughter. We needed an extra seat for a second vehicle but didn't want to forgo the 5-point harness so soon. We already had a Britax Marathon but it was obvious we'd need a larger seat soon so the Regent got the nod. The regent has ample padding and a lush cover, is built solid, and is sturdy. That being said, the seat is wide, tall, and heavy. It has a metal "recline bar" that wraps around the back and gets in the way of easily using the latch system. The anchor for the rear has the adjustment buckle too far away from the top of the seat and is difficult to get tight before it runs out of adjustment. The seat barely fits in my wife's Acura TSX (the front almost touches the back of the front seats, mostly due to my height and the need to have the seat all the way back). It fits better in my Chevy Avalanche but it still has issues with the anchor strap buckle position and the "recline bar" interfering with the latch system. I'm also surprised to see that the latch system is only rated up to 40lbs but the seat is rated up to 80lbs. This means that after your child reaches the 40lb mark, you'll need to fasten the seat to the car using the seat belts--although it might be easier do to the recline bar/latch issue. Bottom line: I feel my daughter is comfortable and well protected in this seat. Once you have it in your car and secured, leave it there, it's a hassle to move, the Marathon is much, much easier.
EXCELLENT CAR SEAT at a good price May 5, 2008 J. Furnaro (NY, NY) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Best car seat available. Good price, easy to install. We feel safe and secure. Plenty of room to grow for my 4 year old, and also a comfortable and safe seat for my 7 year old. Better than the average booster that is held only by an adult seat belt. Tether anchor gives added security. Would NOT buy any other car seat. We have a small SUV and the seat is very large, so we had to give up the "third" middle seat between the two Regents but SO WORTH it for the saftey.

great seat! November 4, 2007 Christy (VA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm very happy with this seat. Up to 80 pounds will last her forever! She loves the flower design and is quite comfortable. My daughter is almost 3 and on the short side. She can see out the window just fine. We had an accident in the seat and I washed it up and put the cover back on with no problems. I also like the little "hugs" that keep the strap from digging into her neck. We have velco ones on her sister's seat, but they keep getting turned around and twisted. I have now moved it in and out of grandma's car. She has a Honda Civic, I have a VW Passat. Very easy to do and still lots of room for her sister's roundabout- I even squeezed myself into the space between the seats for a quick trip to the store- it was very snug, but do-able. If you have trouble with installation take it to you local fire station. They can put it in for you in a jiffy! I am very glad that I have the LATCH system, though. I have not tried the selt belt route- that might be more challenging.
Works great in smaller vehicles, too! November 12, 2007 L. Willis (Greenwood, SC United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After thoroughly researching booster seats we decided to go with this model. I was nervous that, after everything I had read, the seat would not fit well in our 2002 Honda Accord. My husband had no trouble installing the seat and it fits just fine. We also have our 7 month old in an Evenflo seat in the back, too and the kids aren't cramped. My 3 year old adores the seat and she is extremely comfortable riding in it. It's also easier for her to nap on long trips because of the head support. Our only regret is that we should have bought it sooner!
