Britax Boulevard vs Decathlon

[lestrs]

I was ready to purchase a Britax Boulevard but then I have started to see posts about kids heads falling forward when it's FF. I will be using it RF for quite some time but I don't want to have to replace the seat when I move to FF. I really like the side impact protection and I think more car seats will follow this trend

I have also been looking at the Decathlon as a second carseat for my husbands truck.

Anyone have any suggestions one way or the other?

Thanks

	Forward Facing Car Seats A forward-facing car seat is one in which the child sits facing the front of the car. The seat should be installed in the back seat of your vehicle. Most forward-facing only seats are for children above 20 pounds.

	Rear Facing Car Seats A rear-facing seat is one in which the infant faces the back of the car. Always install a rear-facing seat in the back seat of your car. This is the safest position for an infant. NEVER place a rear-facing seat in the front seat of a vehicle with passenger airbags.

These features provide a comfortable, adjustable fit as your child grows - all the way from 5 to 65 pounds.
