Is this safety rated to be placed on the back headrest facing forward so my child can view from her rear facing car seat?

I don't know if it is safety rated for that, but it has been secure. It has a very wide velcro tab and I don't see it going anywhere. Hope this helps.

Not sure about safety ratings..but it is very secure!! My daughter can now reach it with her legs, but it still remained snug;)

Hello Kyle this car seat is only recommended to front sit facing... For baby's over a one years old.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to this for sure. It is a pretty big car seat so it may block the driver's blind spot but I can't say for sure. I have only used this in the forward facing position.

No...this car seat is super safe but it is huge...It used to take up at least half of the backseat with the front seat forward in my Camry. You probably won't have to move seat forward if you are forward facing but depends on age of child. A good resource for finding good car seats for your car is the Car Seat Lady on Facebook. Good luck!

Mine are not forward facing, as of yet, but the head rest is close enough that my children's heads do not really move. Plus the head rest moves up and down, so depending on how big your child is, you can make it fit comfortably.

Yes, we use it for our rear facing car seat. We just hang it from the headrest of the seat.

For me it does... I have an 18 month-old who sits rear-facing. I mounted the holder on the front of the headrest in my honda pilot with no issues.

we have ours facing forward. I dont think you can have this carseat rear facing.The reason I say that is because the seat is pretty 'straight up' and rear facing seats usually have more angle (lay position). This seat may not offer enough leg space (or space at all) if you can mount it rear facing.

I've only used it forward facing. Its a pretty tall back though. I could see it maybe blocking your view out of the side window.

The manual and on the product state that the carrier is not for forward facing infant. You can wear the carrier on your back so the baby would be facing outward.

That depends if u use for the intended purpose of car safety mirror. Then this is good till the baby goes forward facing. But as entertainment, prob till 3, though mine isn't too interested at 1yo

My daughter is almost 15 months and is still rear facing in my SUV. I believe it is high enough for her to see out - she can at least see trucks/trees/buildings. I know the seat reclines at various points- so depending on how far reclined they are- could make the difference...

It can be placed rear facing but you would have to check manufacturers minimum weight for using it for a baby

we have a 2010 chevy tahoe which is a pretty big vehicles. we have it rear facing and its actaully more space hogging in it then the other car seat we have which is a safety first seat we bought at sams. i guess it depends on if you are putting it forward or backward facing. one feature of this seat is that it has the option to recline which we are using. it seems much beefier then the safety first seat.

Hi Mary, I am a certified Child Passenger Safety technician, and Safe Kids and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend having your child in a rear facing car seat for two years at minimum, preferably to the height/weight limits of the convertible car seat. As this forward facing only car seat is intended for older children, Britax specifies that the child must be at least 2 years old and I believe 25 lbs to use this particular seat. I would recommend looking for a convertible car seat for your 13 month old. Hope that helps!

It is safe for baby if used correctly in the rear facing position with the infant insert and adjusted to the right shoulder height. Also be sure to stop by a safety expert's facility to make sure it's installed correctly. I used mine from the time he came out of the hospital.
