Recommended : The Britax B-Compaq convertible car seat is an updated Graphene with the B-first treatment, receiving the new SICT technology, the shell and the ventilation is similar to the B-first.

Britax B-Compaq Installation
The hardest part of the installation is removing the isoflex connectors from the compartments under the seat. Once removed, the next difficult is to recline the seat to the rear facing recline position. This is best done with the seat on its side.

Ease of use (Britax B-compaq)
Easy Adjust Harness
The easy adjust harness has received the Bfirst treatment. At the top of the headrest is the easy adjust lever; making it easier for harness adjustment. The harness adjustment of the Graphene has a push label at the front of the seat and a blue lever at the back. Both are awkward to use, and for a carer with limited dexterity, the graphene was difficult to adjust. The New B-Compaq is definitely easier than the graphene to adjust.
Comfort
The Britax B-Compaq convertible car seat has received the ventilation comfort feature from the Bfirst. This helps to keep bubs cooler with the Thermo5 fabric and allowing air to flow through the seat.
Ease of use
This is where the Britax B-Compaq falls down. Tensioning of the harness is straight forward. Unfortunately when loosening the harness; Britax have only provided a slot, which does not line up with the button underneath the fabric. The problem is resolved by pulling the covers up to reveal the button underneath, allowing the user to release
