The Britax "First Class Plus” is a group 0+/1 car seat, meaning it can be fitted both rearward facing for newborns and forward facing once baby reaches the weight of 9kg/(20lbs). In the rearward facing position a long seat belt is required to fix the Britax First Class Plus safely in the car.

In the rearward position First Class Plus has an Extended recline position and Newborn Insert to help create a more natural sleeping position. The 100% cotton Newborn Insert provides extra comfort and support for your baby, and can be used from birth to 8kg.

However, in the forward facing mode "Britax First Class Plus" certainly has a few tricks up its sleeve which other car seat manufacturers have simply not been able to better. 

The Britax "First Class Plus” has a Unique pitch control system which reduces forward movement in the event of an accident and performance chest pads that help limit the pressure on the child’s chest. The well thought out harness retainers also make it easy to get your child in and out of the seat. "Britax First Class Plus" has Side Impact Protection with deep, softly padded side wings to ensure your baby is both safe and comfortable. There is a Quick-remove Softly padded and washable cover that can be removed without interfering with the harness

The First Class Plus boasts 5 recline positions and is set up to ensure the seat adjusts without disturbing your child (when forward facing)

Where Britax First Class Plus scores is the fact that it has TWO different methods of fixing, brilliantly designed so to avoid the problem of buckle crunch. Cars that have relatively long seat belt stalks (a great example would be the Kia Sedona) can be a nightmare to fit a group 1 car seat into but the Britax First Class Plus eliminates this problem with ease. Britax First Class Plus uses a 3-point seat belt installation both rearward and forward facing

The Britax First Class Plus as the advantage that it has a slim base, which can help, if you have other seats in your car.  The final point we would make about this seat is the fact that it adjusts into its recline positions very easily and in consequence we believe this seat is very user friendly subject to being fitted correctly in the car.
