Appearance

The Britax Römer Adventure Plus 2 car seat has a stylish and modern design available in several color options. The primary color is a dark midnight grey fabric that looks sleek and sophisticated. It's accented by bright yellow stitching and trim details that add a pop of color. The sculpted shell has a matte finish which helps resist fingerprints and dirt.

The padded fabric cover uses soft and breathable materials. It can be easily removed without uninstalling the car seat to allow for cleaning. There are multiple fabric pieces in complementary colors and patterns including grey, black, and yellow. This creates visual interest while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic.

The overall look is both elegant and adventure-ready. It balances a robust protective shell with playful yet refined fabric accents. The mix of materials and finishes gives it versatility to match different vehicle interiors from luxury cars to family SUVs. Parents will appreciate the ability to coordinate their car seat with strollers and other baby gear.

Weight

The Adventure Plus 2 car seat weighs 10.8 kg. This is on the heavier side for a high-backed booster seat, but still manageable for moving the seat between cars or carrying it short distances. The weight does provide a sturdy, solid feel when the seat is installed in the car. However, the extra weight could make it difficult for some parents to carry the seat through airports or long distances. When possible, using a compatible travel cart or stroller can help transport the seat more easily. Overall, the seat is portable enough for everyday use, though the weight is a factor to consider if you'll need to frequently move the seat significant distances. The sturdy build and side impact protection features likely contribute to the increased weight. So while heavy, the weight isn't excessive and contributes to a sense of security when the seat is installed properly.

Price

The Britax Römer Adventure Plus 2 car seat falls within the mid-range price point for high-quality car seats, typically retailing between £200-300. This puts it on the more affordable end of Britax Römer's lineup, making it a nice option for parents looking for the trusted Britax name and safety reputation without breaking the bank.

The Adventure Plus 2 costs less than Britax's top-of-the-line models like the Advansafix IV R (£330+), but more than their budget-friendly options like the Dualfix (£130-150). Comparable car seats from other major brands like Maxi-Cosi and Joie sell for around the same £200-300 mark.

So while not the cheapest car seat on the market, the Adventure Plus 2 offers excellent value given its array of safety features and long lifespan - supporting kids from 100cm up to 150cm in height. For parents wanting robust protection without overspending, it hits a nice sweet spot.
