Does anyone have the Britax Boulevard 70-G3 XE carseat?

What's your take on it? I think its time for us to move to our convertible carseat and that is the one I received at my shower. However now when I look at reviews they aren't as positive as I once thought. 

Any other recommendations for convertible carseats?

Haven't used it. Are you buying for 1 car or 2? If you need it for 2 cars my recs for your main car would be the Graco MyRide, Evenflo Symphony, and Safety 1st Complete Air (the LX doesn't need a noodle). For the second car either the Evenflo SureRide or Safety 1st Guide 65 (&78 at Walmart). If you wanted to splurge a little do the Chicco Nextfit of Graco size for me in your main car. All those seats rear face to 40 lbs & inches and get decent reviews. There is no way in hell I would use 1 seat for 2 cars.

I have an older blvd for ds1. If you have a tall kid it won't last very long RFing. My kids are small so I don't worry about it. DS1 is still RFing at almost 2.5. I've heard good things about the nextfit too

They aren't a bad seat.  They are usually pretty user friendly but they do not last very long RFing.  A lot of kids won't even make it to 2 RFing which is the minimum recommendation.  We have a Grace MySize 70 and a Chicco NextFit rear facing for our girls right now.  I really like the NextFit, that is what M is in.  Very easy to install and very comfy.

Thanks ladies. We are looking for 1 car as of now cause DH uses his for mostly business , so we are usually in mine.

I hope I am able to return it even though its been 9 months since my shower, we shall see.

I will look into all your recs! Thanks again!
