Side Impact Cushion Technology for Advanced Security

Offering both Side Impact Cushion Technology (SICT) and True Side Impact Protection, the FRONTIER 85 SICT provides protection if you happen to face an unexpected side impact crash. Side Impact Cushion Technology, which is comprised of energy-absorbing cushions on either side of the exterior of the seat, reduces side-impact energy by 45 percent by diverting crash forces away from your child and providing extra protection for the adjacent passenger. The side impact cushions are designed to compress during a side impact crash, transferring crash energy away from the seat before it reaches your child. Additionally, True Side Impact Protection guards the head and limits injury by deflecting vehicle intrusion, absorbing impact, and keeping the neck and spine aligned.

Harness and Tether System Provide 360-Degree Protection

The FRONTIER 85 SICT provides an advanced design for crash force management and absorption. The Energy-Absorbing Versa-Tether features a staged-release tether webbing that securely anchors the top of the child seat to your vehicle at two points to slow forward movement, reduce crash forces, anchor the seat, and minimize forward rotation of the seat in the event of a sudden stop.

The energy-absorbing base and EPS foam liner are designed to absorb and distribute impact forces. In addition, the Harness Ultra Guard System (HUGS) reduces forward head movement and offers increased protection for your child.

The FRONTIER 85 SICT is compatible with SecureGuard (sold separately), which works with the safety belt in booster mode to prevent the child from sliding under the lap-belt portion during impact, minimizing the risk of abdominal injury.

Adaptable Design for Growing Children

The tangle-free, five-point harness allows for 10 harness-height positions -- up to 20 inches in shoulder height -- and three buckle positions for a snug, comfortable fit, even as your child grows. You can also adjust the head restraint with one hand using the quick-adjust lever and easily change the harness shoulder height without disassembling the entire harness. Plus, the convenient front harness adjuster allows you to loosen or tighten the harness system easily.

The booster seat can be used in the forward-facing harnessed position for children starting at two years old and weighing 25 to 85 pounds (the highest capacity in five-point harness systems). As a belt-positioning booster, the seat is suited for children from 40 to 120 pounds.

Easy to Install and Clean

Premium Lower LATCH Connectors allow for quick installation and feature a push-button for easy release. Color-coded belt guides indicate the path and positioning of the vehicle seat belt, further enhancing ease of installation. The FRONTIER 85 SICT also features an easy-to-remove cover that allows for easy cleaning without disassembling or uninstalling the car seat from your vehicle.

The BRITAX FRONTIER 85 SICT Combination Harness-2-Booster Seat is backed by a manufacturer's limited one-year warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Frontier 85 vs. Frontier 85 SICT: Is It Worth It?, June 16, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Britax Frontier 85 SICT Booster Seat, Onyx (Baby Product)
If you're debating the SICT (Side Impact Cushion Technology), there is obviously some merit to Britax's technology. I'm no car crash expert but it seems apparent that providing another barrier that protects the neck and head is safer in the event of a side impact crash. I have had Britax seats with and without the SICT cushions and I believe that a car seat correctly installed with as much head and neck support (i.e, head wings, EPS foam, SICT cushions, etc.) is what is safest for my kids. In my case, my kids are riding outboard in an older car without rear side airbags and I want to give them the best possible odds in the event of crash. That being said, I've owned both the Frontier 85 and now the Frontier 85 SICT and the differences between the two (excluding the cushion technology) are subtle. The cushion technology is what you're paying for and what distinguishes itself from the regular Frontier 85 (much like the Advocate 70 CS distinguishes itself from the Boulevard 70). But... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Well Built but a couple of quirks, August 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Britax Frontier 85 SICT Booster Seat, Onyx (Baby Product)
This is my 6th Britax seat for 2 kids. I have been wanting to order a Frontier ever since they came out but the reasonable budgeting person decided to wait until our two Boulevards had expired. That happened to coincide with the release of this newer model of the Frontier. It seems really solid and safe like all Britax Seats. I did not like the fabric choices but went ahead with the Onyx choice even though it is a warm fabric ( we had this fabric in 3 other seats and my kids were so hot in it!) I plan to buy an after market seat cover as soon as I can find one in a nice comfortable cotton fabric.

I have had the seat installed in my car now for 3 weeks and here are my pet peeves about it:

1)The belly pad is very loose and comes off every time my son gets out of the car. I know it is just a matter of time before he jumps out and I forget to look and then we won't have a belly pad for his seat any longer.
2)I like the convenience of the pads being able to be... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, July 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Britax Frontier 85 SICT Booster Seat, Onyx (Baby Product)
This is the best car seat on the market. Extensive side protection and very comfortable. Britax car seats..are very well made and are the safest. I have had 4 of their seats..all have been great. This car seat is much easier to clean and the straps don;t get "turned around". This makes is less frustrating for everyone. Great seat..for sure worth the extra dollars..a good investment.
