Before we get into the features of the Parkway, it should be noted that booster seats are meant to be used with standard, factory-installed lap and shoulder belts in your vehicle. Booster seats do not use LATCH or any other tether system, but are secured by the child's weight and a properly buckled seatbelt. The Parkway is meant to give occupants a "boost" so that the car's seatbelt can sit safely across their torso.

Safety first is a good rule of thumb, and one that Britax certainly heeds. The belt-positioning Parkway booster seat was designed for increased safety, incorporating deep torso and adjustable height head support. The multi-position headrest is simple to work with only one hand and allows the seat to grow with your child, up to 60" tall. Your child is too tall for the Parkway once the tops of their ears are above the top of the fully raised headrest.

The multi-position headrest can be easily adjusted with just one hand.

The Parkway also features Britax-engineered True Side Impact Protection. It has been confirmed through rigorous side impact sled testing to better contain a child in dangerous, side-impact crashes. The reinforced headrest is lined with EPS foam to absorb energy, and its design cradles the child's head to keep it away from protruding parts and minimize and cushion violent side to side movements. The Parkway meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 213, a set of strict standards to which child restraint systems must adhere.

With safety clearly taken care of, Britax moved on to comfort and convenience features. The Parkway's seat shape correctly positions the lap belt over your child's pelvis while the color-coded belt guides keeps the vehicle's belt comfortably away from their neck. The plush fabric seat cover is removable and washable, and comes in a range of colors and patterns. Drink and snack trays are easily accessible. The reclining backrest allows your child to be in ultimate comfort on long trips or when sleeping. The base of the booster seat is contoured and slip-resistant, providing additional peace of mind. When empty, the Parkway weighs a mere 10 pounds, making it a cinch to move between vehicles when necessary.
