Britax Rock-A-Tot Reviews

If you own a Ford car then I have been told by Mothercare and Ford that this is the only seat that you can use due to the seatbelts not being long enough for any other seat - a really important point if you are buying a new car because you are having a baby! This car seat is brilliant! It is lightweight and very easy to use. ...  Read the complete review

We had trouble finding a car seat that would fit my husband's 3 door mercedes most were too big to get through the door opening without tipping the baby out. We had advice from mothercare and they suggested a smaller seat like the rock a tot. It is small enough to easily be put into the back seat of my husband's car. The carrying ...  Read the complete review

The single most important piece of equipment for any newborn, assuming that they travel home from hospital in a car, is a car seat. In fact, you won't be allowed to leave hospital in a car without one. Babies need to travel in rear-facing car seats until they weigh approximately 13kg or outgrow the seat. A newborn is going ...  Read the complete review

I bought the Britax rock-a-tot 6 years ago when my first child was due, and we're on to our third now, with the car-seat still going strong! The rock-a-tot is lightweight yat sturdy, and even after 6 years, I still haven't seen a lighter one. That's important when you're lugging a not-so-little one around! The ...  Read the complete review

We bought the Rock-a-Tot three years ago just before the birth of my first son. The reason I bought it was that in all the reviews I read it always came out top and although a bit pricier than the others available at the time nothing was too good for my unborn child! I found the optional extra head hugger somewhat useless as it ...  Read the complete review

When my son was born 9 years ago, things were so different. I didn't need a car seat for a start, so when I was pregnant with my daughter last year, I decided that a car seat that I could put in and take out the car, enabling me to carry my daughter around town would be a good idea. What I didn't consider was the weight ...  Read the complete review

We bought a rock a tot car seat when I was pregnant with my 3rd child.The main reason I choose it to be honest was because my son would soon be too big for the club class care seat we had so we thought it was a waste of money to buy another one.This seemed ideal as it would last him long enough and with it being a brittax I knew it would ...  Read the complete review

Despite already having the Britax Club Class Car Seat (birth - 4 years) we decided to buy the Rock-a-Tot for a couple of reasons. Firstly it is handy to be able to carry a sleeping (or otherwise) baby from the car rather than disturb them, particually when visiting (saves the sick on the carpet/settee situation too!) ...  Read the complete review

I got one of these with my travel system, also made by Britax. The car seat itself is a lovely bright yellow and royal blue and has washable, removable covers (especially useful when you have a colour like yellow!!). It has a carrying handle that can be used to also stabilize the seat and hang toys on for the baby. It also ...  Read the complete review

We brought the rock a tot for my little boy after having used the rock a bye for his two sisters. I was very impressed by the larger style ideal for bigger babies. There were different patterns to choose and I chose the electric blue one. I found the seat easy to install in our car and also taxis. I particullary liked the strong handle. ...  Read the complete review

We got our rock a tot car seat as part of the classicale travel system from Britax and it's done us well. The material is of fetching design and is easily removable and washable. It is also hard wearing for even the toughest little monster! The handle is easy to use, you just press it down and move it to one of ...  Read the complete review

I bought a Britax Rock a tot prior to my baby being born because it had been given good write ups in my baby magazines. We were very impressed with it, light and easy to carry and can go in either the front or back of the car. It also has a system for cars with shorter seatbelts which I have come across. It also has a removable ...  Read the complete review

I really like this seat. We bought it for our oldest daughter to go with the Britax Travel System. WE used it for the oldest until she was 9 month old (then moved her into another seat not because she was unable to fit the other simply because She had got to heavy to carry) Our youngest daughter at 7 months is still in it and I dont see ...  Read the complete review

We bought this car seat two years ago for my daughter and have just finished using it for my son whos 6months old. Overall we thought the car seat was very well designed the straps are easy to use and adjust and the quick release buckle really is one press quick release. The only problem we found was to put the carrying handle over to ...  Read the complete review

We bought the Britax rock a tot car seat when we had our son, over 2 years ago. Going off topic slightly I wish we'd bought the 'wheels' to go with it as well! However then travel systems weren't as popular as they are now. However, the rock a tot, was wonderful and I would definitely recommend it as a first ...  Read the complete review

If I had to decide which was our best baby buy ever, this would have to be the one. I was lucky in that I bought mine in the sale at Mothercare for £35 since they had just introduced new colourways. Luckily, I had set my heart on the "teddy biscuit" pattern which was on offer - isn't it nice when this happens! ...  Read the complete review

When we were expecting our first child I was sure that I wanted a Britax Rock a Tot. Perhaps I had seen too many adverts, but it seemed to have all the features I would need. As well as a car seat, it could act as a rocker and a seat indoors. The cover was removeable and machine washable, a one pull harness with 3 positions for the ...  Read the complete review
