Pros: Harness to 65 lbs, no rerouting harness, side wings

Pros: Very safe, attractive cover, fits large children rear-facing.

Pros: Easy to install, easy to use

Pros: Safety, comfort, ease of adjustment, strong straps, snug fit
Cons: None - even the belly pad's tendency to slip off is outweighed by its benefit.
Summary: I cannot say enough good things about this car seat - it was $249 very well spent! No other car seat will allow me to keep my daughter in the safety of a harness up to 65 pounds (except the Britax Husky). It doesn't budge AT ALL! A perfectly snug ... read more

Pros: If Britax would fix the design problem, this would be a great car seat
Cons: Children can release the safety straps and could be seriously injured or killed.
Summary: Like others who have provided reviews of this product, at first I was thrilled to have what is touted as one of the safest seats on the market. In fact, I bought two of them--one for my car, and one for my caregiver's car. This car seat was great

Pros: Don't waste $150 or more on a cosco or flimsy seat that you will hate.
Cons: Price.$280.00 to take it home. Still worth every penny
Summary: I was very excited when I learned Britax released a new car seat,The Wizard. I already own the Round About Advantage from Britax, my son was soon to out grow it and I wanted a great car seat and the Wizard fit the bill. I never cursed either of my Britax

Summary: My son (age 5, 36 lbs) loves his Britax wizard -- we have had it since he was about 3 years old and he tends to fall asleep in it more often than he does in the Marathon. I like that it has side-impact protection, even though we put it in the middle of

Pros: Big, safe and comfy
Cons: none
Summary: We bought 2 Wizards in 2004 for our 2 girls now 6 & 1/2 and 3. We have just now put our oldest in a booster. They both LOVE their seats. On car trips their heads never fall forward and they are so plush and comfy. I was a bit nervous about the wings

Pros: VERY SAFE! No slumping child. Easy to install.
Cons: Expensive, not many fabric choices.
Summary: I couldn't be any more happy with this seat! We have a britax roundabout, two britax marathons, and two wizard seats. This is a fabulous seat! I wouldn't use any other seat for my kids. Only the best! The side impact gives me such peace of mind
