View larger.BRITAX 360 Degree ProtectionThe BRITAX ROUNDABOUT 55 features technologies that work to minimize injury to your child during a crash from any direction, including both frontal and side impact crashes – the most frequent types of crashes. These technologies work together with other features on the car seat to minimize injury to your child during a crash by:
- keeping your child in the vehicle,
- diverting crash forces away from your child,
- helping to slow down your child’s body,
- minimizing movement of your child, and
- protecting your child’s brain and spinal cord.
SafeCell Technology for Advanced Head Safety Designed with SafeCell Technology, the ROUNDABOUT 55 features SafeCells, which are engineered structures located in the base of the seat designed to compress in the event of a crash. This compression significantly lowers the center of gravity and counteracts the forward rotation of the car seat, delivering unprecedented performance in a crash.
The ROUNDABOUT 55 also features integrated steel bars, which strengthen the connection to the vehicle and reduce the forward flexing of the car seat. In addition, the energy-absorbing Versa-Tether anchors the top of the car seat and minimizes forward rotation to reduce the crash forces that can reach your child if an accident occurs. These three features work together as a system to provide revolutionary head safety protection for your child.
Side Impact Protection for Added SecurityTo keep your child safe in the event of a side-impact collision, the ROUNDABOUT 55 includes Side Impact Protection. Side Impact Protection is a system composed of a rigid seat shell with deep side walls and energy-absorbing EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) foam lining the shell. These combined features work together to protect your child’s head and chest from incoming side-impact crash forces by distributing the forces over a larger surface area, helping shield your child from vehicle intrusion and contain your child’s head and body in the seat.
Premium Fit and Comfort FeaturesWhether children are watching the world go by or snuggling in for a nap, they’ll enjoy that the ROUNDABOUT 55 reclines in both the forward and rear positions. And thanks to additional features, which include high-density comfort foam and a plush cover set with a matching belly pad, they’ll always ride in style and comfort. A 55-pound weight capacity, two buckle positions, and a tangle-free five-point harness with four harness-height settings ensure that your growing child will ride safely and comfortably. Plus, an optional Infant Positioning Insert (sold separately) allows you to properly and snugly fit smaller infants into the car seat.
Ease-of-Use for Safety and ConveniencePacked with perks for parents, the ROUNDABOUT 55 makes it easy to secure your child in the proper position without guesswork. Premium lower LATCH connectors make for a quick, simple, and tight installation, while the push-button allows you to easily uninstall the connectors. Easy-to-access built-in lock-offs allow you to install the car seat with ease using your vehicle’s lap and shoulder belt.
Additionally, an anti-slip contoured base grips and protects the vehicle seat, ensuring a tight installation in all types of vehicles. Convenient holders keep harness straps out of the way when you’re placing your child in the seat.
The BRITAX ROUNDABOUT 55 Convertible Car Seat is backed by a one-year limited warranty.

This review is from: Britax Roundabout 55 Convertible Car Seat (Previous Version), Smokey Pearl (Baby Product)
We ordered 2 of the Britax Roundabout 55 carseats in smokey pearl, one for each of our vehicles. We have this carseat installed rear-facing in both a 2005 Toyota Camry and a 2005 Chevy Silverado extended cab pickup, and it fits great in both vehicles. In the Camry, the carseat is installed behind the passenger, and there is lots of leg room for the person riding in the passenger seat – the passenger seat is almost all the way back. Our previous carseat was a Graco Snugride, and the Roundabout 55 takes up MUCH less of the passenger’s leg room. In the pickup, we have the carseat installed in the rear center seat. We initially installed it behind the passenger, but rear-facing, this seat was not a good fit – the passenger seat had to be almost all the way forward. However, there is plenty of room for the seat to rear-face in the middle and the seat does not affect the position of the driver or passenger seats at all.
We have been using this carseat for about a week, and so far so good. The seat installed easily using the LATCH system, we have not tried a seatbelt install with this seat yet. The quality of this seat is obvious, especially when compared with our previous seat. The cloth cover is a soft, plush fabric, and the colors are true to what is shown in the picture. The dots on the cream background are a grayish-brown color and beige, and the edging is a medium-brown color. The seat is well padded, and our daughter seems comfortable and happy in it. The velco tabs for holding the harness straps back when not in use are a nice touch. The buckle on the 5-point harness is not any more or less difficult to latch and unlatch than the Graco seat. The harness is much easier to adjust on this seat compared to our previous seat, except (as another reviewer mentioned) that the adjuster strap does get trapped between the carseat and the seat back when rear-facing. However, that is not a big deal to us, since we don’t often adjust the harness straps anyway.
One of the reasons we chose this seat is because it can potentially rear-face to 40 pounds. However, I am almost certain that our daughter will outgrow this seat rear-facing on height well before she reaches 40 pounds. Same thing for forward facing. Right now, our 9 month old is 20.5 pounds and 28.5 inches and the shoulder straps are threaded thru the 2nd set of holes, and is not far from moving up to the 3rd set of holes. However, if we can keep her rear-facing in this seat until she is 2-2.5 years old, and forward facing until she is 4 or so, I will be satisfied.
