原文：We have been using this seat for just shy of a year now for my 5-year old. It is one of seven seats that I have owned and used for my kiddos over the years, so I feel like I've built up enough hours to be able to pick out a good product when I see it. I had really expected more from this seat. :(Fir
st, the good - the Clicktight feature is A-MAZING. I love it. That feature has single-handedly saved me from buying yet another seat for a different car as the install is easy enough that I don't mind switching it between vehicles on a semi-recurring basis. Honestly I could foresee Clicktight ultimately replacing Latch altogether for forward-facing seats. I also thoroughly appreciate the max harness height, which is advertised as 20.5" but by my measurement on my seat is more like 20". Still, when you figure that most kids will outgrow this type of seat by height before weight (even my 95%+ little man), that is a majorly attractive feature - most other seats on the market max out at 18". Between that and the nice long 10-year expiration, Britax had my wallet falling open for this product.Enter the downfall - After installing this seat in my husband's car, which was a breeze, I thought I was all set. Then over the course of the first couple months or so there were several occasions when I'd go to get my son out of the car and find that his harness was way, way too loose. My husband commented that he was having trouble tightening the harness so I gave it a try myself and literally COULD NOT get it to tighten up. (I have a different seat in my car, so hadn't used this one myself yet). I'm talking full-body in the car with legs on the strap trying to pull it, with no success. We removed the seat and checked it out and didn't see anything amiss so reinstalled it and hoped it was just manufactured too stiff and would loosen up over time. My husband gave it extra force from them on to get the harness better tightened, but it continued to bother me as I worried about my son's safety anytime there wasn't someone with superhuman strength to put him in. I called Britax at one point and they told me they had "never heard of this before" and suggested that I change the recline setting or just leave the harness tightened when taking my son out of the seat. The recline angle was too severe to fit in our car, and the pre-tightened harness approach was a major PITA, so that went nowhere. Finally I set to searching on the internet and found that people have been complaining about this issue with these seats since at least 2013!!Here's the issue: The harness on this seat routes across two pieces of plastic on the back of the seat, each ridged on either side but with no backer plate. When you install the seat in many different vehicle types, the open channel gets pressed into the seat and the seat itself traps the harness straps in place, thus making it ridiculously difficult to pull. Two of our three cars had this problem - a Ford Focus and a Ford Fusion. If you are lucky enough to have a car with more of a concave rear seat, like our Dodge Magnum or cars with "captain's seats," you won't have this issue. You can literally see it from the side of the seat when installed. Just to confirm that this is what was happening, I bought a cheap $0.88 plastic cutting board at Walmart and stuck it between my car's seatback and the car seat to "unsquish" the open harness channels and voila, %#$@ thing worked like a charm!Bottom line: This Britax seat has a design flaw that they could have fixed for literally a few bucks at the factory by adding a backer plate, but instead for years they have continued to sell it without concern for the many families who I am sure have slack harnesses on their kid because they aren't able to get it to adjust correctly. I would probably be less miffed if their help line hadn't claimed ignorance, but it is still not OK.Don't buy this seat unless 1) you are confident you have a concave seatback in your car, or 2) you feel safe jamming a plastic board behind it to make it work.

译文： 距离第一次使用这个座椅还不到一年，我的孩子今年五岁。我们一共有七个座椅，这是其中之一，这些座椅都被我们用了很多年，现在我觉得我已经有经验和时间去选择更好的产品了。最初我真的希望能从这款座椅里获得更好的体验。
首先，优点是，Clicktight的功能很棒，我很喜欢，这一功能使得我免去了购买另一个用于其他车子的座椅的费用。因为安装非常简单，我不介意循环往复地进行车子之间座椅的调换。老实说，我能想象得到，为了制造前向式座椅，Clicktight式的座椅将会完全取代Latch式的座椅。我也很欣赏座椅的绑带高度真如广告中说的那样，达到了20.5，但我测量一番后，发现差不多是在20。当你发现孩子会长高而慢慢地不再适用儿童座椅的时候，你就会知道这款绑带高度为20.5的儿童座椅是多么的吸引人了，因为市面上的大多数座椅的绑带高度都在18左右。正因如此，在过去长达10年的时间里，我们一直信赖Britax，多次购买了旗下的产品。
接下来，要说一说它的缺点。在丈夫的车上装好了以后，只有轻微的空隙，那时我以为已经大功告成了。然而在之后使用的前几个月里，我把儿子从车上抱下来的时候，经常能注意到，座椅的绑带实在是太松了。丈夫说他很难把绑带系紧，所以我亲自试了试，发现几乎不能完全系紧。（之前在车上用的其他的座椅，还没有用过这个。） 我一边和丈夫谈论，一边拉紧带子，结果也没有成功。我们把座椅从车里卸了下来，检查了一遍也没发现什么问题，于是又把它装了回去，希望只是产品加工的问题，想着可能是因为时间久了而变得松了。为了把绑带系得紧一点，丈夫也施加了额外的力量来帮助我，但是这个问题仍然存在，一直在困扰着我，我很担心儿子的安全问题。根本就没有什么神力能让他安安稳稳地待在里面。我向Britax总部进行了反馈，他们告诉我之前从没有出现过这种问题，而且建议我调整一下靠背的设置，或者在把儿子抱出去以后，就让它一直松在那里。靠背的角度与我们的车子十分的不协调，扎紧前的绑带就像PITA，但现在没什么用了。最后我在网上搜索了一下，发现早在2013年，就有人抱怨这个问题了！！
以下就是问题所在： 由于座椅的绑带跨过后靠背两边的塑料部分，两侧都起皱了，而且没有任何垫板。当你在不同类型的车子里安装座椅的时候，凹槽就会被挤压进座椅里，座椅就会让绑带的位置偏移，因此，用“拉”的方式显然是非常荒唐非常困难的。我们有三辆车子，其中两辆 一辆福特Focus和一辆福特Fusion。如果你刚好有一辆有着很多凹后座的车子，就像Dodge Magnum或者有"captain's seats"的车子，你就不会有我这种问题了。在安装的时候，你能很清楚地从椅子两边看到它。为了证明发生了什么，我特地去沃尔玛买了便宜一点的0.88美元的塑料切割板，把它卡在车座靠背和车座之间，来抑制住凹槽，瞧，结果真的非常有效！
结论： 这款Britax的儿童座椅有一个设计缺陷，明明只要在加工的时候进行改进，加一块垫板上去就能解决问题，为什么仍然继续售卖旧款，他们一点也没有考虑到那些由于不会正确调整绑带而变得松弛的家庭的问题。如果不是因为客服热线不承认他们的忽视，我也不会这么生气。不要再买这款座椅了，除非（1）你很自信，因为你的车子有凹型座椅靠背；或者（2）你觉得背后的塑料板能起到作用，很安全。
