2010-04-03 Britax Car Seat

This Britax Boulevard car seat is only a year or so old and has barely been used. The previous owners had cut the straps before discarding this predominantly plastic item in the scrap metal. We stripped it down to check for damage and such but it seems fine. We put on new straps and now we have a shiny new Britax seat.

This "cut the straps" meme is obviously a great delight to the seat manufacturers as it is fear based marketing that masquerades as concern for consumers and happens to sell more seats.
