Did not use britax, however there are a couple of small silver bars on the stroller that need to either be moved to a different hole for different seats or removed completely to prevent wobbling. So that may have been the issue. Good luck.

I did not, but there is another piece you can buy - an adapter that may help you. Good luck!

The SnapnGo only works with the Companion and Chaperone linea of Britax. If you go directly to the Baby Trend website it lists which brands/lines of carseats will work with the SnapnGo.

These should NOT be used in car seats. They are "aftermarket products" and your manual will tell you not to use them. The packaging also likely says not to use them in a car seat. They are NOT safe. Using them in the car seat essentially means you're using your baby as a crash test dummy. Legally, the manufacturer could throw the product against a wall and call it "crash tested". This has not been crash tested in every seat...chances are, it hasn't been "crash tested" in ANY seat. It will also void your manufacturer's warranty (of the car seat) and in the event of a crash, your seat probably won't be covered by your insurance company either.

I never felt like the stroller was not stable with only one child in the front or back...however, it was more challenging to maneuver if there was only one child in the front seat. For this reason, I typically put our son/daughter in the back if I only had one of them. For the same reason, our son, who is the oldest, typically sat in the back seat. I hope this helps!

oh god, it is like this rumor will never die. find me ONE peer reviewed published study that suggests the baby bjorn causes ANY type of spinal issue and you will have my undying respect. dont give me a bunch of links to zealot bloggers who want to laud their moby wraps (by the way, i love my moby wrap, but use other carriers like the baby bjorn as well). otherwise read THIS blog: http://skeptoid.com/blog/2013/01/25/will-the-babybjorn-endanger-your-infants-health/ as it summarizes my eye rolling well.

Hi there. I have used it for my 2yr old since he was around 25 pounds and it worked fine. The seat comes with an extra lining/padding for the seat, intended for keeping the child firmly in place which I used for like 2 weeks and never needed it again.Alternatively look at the britax marathon or whatever the newer version is called. It will not last that long buy then again whenever you need a booster, these are pretty inexpensive. Hope this helps. Best

My kid would sit on it but it's not safe. She also had to either sit cross legged so her feet wouldn't drag or she would place her feet onto the bars of the MacClaren. I don't know the stroller you are referring to but the board is really adjustable in regard to width & arm length. You just need to make sure to have two clear bars (about 2" of space) to attach the arms to it. My friend used this with her city mini double stroller and it was fine. Hope this helps!

I would contact britax directly but make sure the seat is not expired and don't purchase from someone you don't know...you never where that car seat has been (accident??). And don't put anything other than a Britax cover on it otherwise the seat is not safe.

We have never experienced even a whisper of difficulty in steering. It IS a double stroller so by nature it does not manuever like a single. It's heavier and wider. I think if you've never used a double stroller you may think ALL of them are hard to steer so maybe that affects the opinions of those who have a negative comment about this. Or someone may have gotten a defective stroller with a set of crummy wheels. That can happen with any product.Amazon reviews can be very confusing - sometimes too many opinions actually help instead of hurt, right? Ha.Maybe you could "test drive" one in the store?Hope this helps. Good luck. We have never experienced even a whisper of difficulty in steering.

As per Britax, aftermarket products should not be used with their carseats unless Britax themselves manufactured the item due to the risk of it causing injury to the child in the unlikely event of an accident. That being said, my son had torticollis and we needed something to prop his neck to the loose side as per his physical therapist. We separated this cradler, using one side, to keep his head straight. We have a Britax Marathon.

This is an old model of the stroller so the clips don't fit correctly. Call Britax customer service and let them know you need the new clips that fit the B-safe. They send them free within a few days

We have a Safety 1st Carseat and base, would that work with this stroller? We really don't want to have to buy a new carseat just to use with this stroller. We have a 2 year old and are expecting our second baby in mid January next year.

We're having the *exact* same problem as scientific illustrator. The Britax Roundabout will not sit securely in the middle of our Prius. The car seat base is more narrow than the middle cushion so the car seat tilts and wobbles. We are trying to return the Roundabout and are looking for suggestions on which convertible car seat will work. Please advise!! Thank you

Hello, we were both very disapointed with this product and we have used it once or twice. We purchased it after reading so many great reviews and actually did see many people with this product. For us at least it has never been comfortable. We tried every single position and called the company to ensure nothing that we were doing was wrong. The only feedback we got was that we seem to be tall and perhaps that took a toll on our backs and the fit. My suggestion would be try it at a store. Put your baby in it and walk around to see if it works for you. For us the BJORN was altogether a better solution. Allowed more flexibility (facing front and back) and more air for the baby to breath. Hello, we were both very disapointed with this product and we have used it once or twice.

I was told by a thrift shop owner NOT TO BUY a used car seat under any condition. you don't know if it was in an accident!! made a lot of sense. only buy a NEW car seat because the rules and protective knowledge is improving every day. the thrift shop own was very strong not to buy any car seat used or recycled. so it makes sense, buy new. your baby is more important than money. Grace co didn't work for our car. we were unhappy to use a rolled up towel, as suggested in directions, to steady the seat! really.

No! I just bought this for my Britax B Safe car seat based on reviewers saying it was compatible but it is not! The Britax B Safe does not clip into the stroller. The only means you have of keeping the car seat in place is the red safety clip which is meant as back-up, not the primary way to clip it in.

we had a similar problem before the frame broke too, and were able to use another cloth portion from another stroller. when we had this problem with another stroller, the manufacturer sent an entire replacement. and with yet another stroller, we just sewed the parts that had ripped.

I agree with a previous response, that you really have to press down hard to get the two pieces together. It shouldn't be a problem after that. Honestly, I don't remember it being too much of an issue. We popped it together and put it in the car, and haven't had the need to touch it since. Britax is nothing short of awesome when it comes to returns/replacements/etc...so if you don't think it's right, don't use it. Call them and ask for another one or whatever you feel best doing. Good luck!
