Britax Diplomat

Best Price: $230.00

from Anonymous, www.elitecarseats.com
it fits in my daughters compact car, but because it's only a 2 door car she can't get the baby in and out of the seat easily in the backward seating position.
from Stacey, www.elitecarseats.com
i like that it is more compact for rear facing than the boulevard.
from Anonymous, www.elitecarseats.com
other "compact" models just didn't seem to match up to the britax.
from www.amazon.com
it is compact enough that her seat can be in the car behind my 6'1" husband.

Britax Roundabout

Best Price: $160.00

from www.amazon.com
the front belt adjustment button is much more accessible than in my marathon and the roundabout is just a little more compact which makes fitting it in the car easier.
from www.amazon.com
it is super easy to install and it even fits in our tiny compact car (kia sephia).
from www.amazon.com
even the compact versions -- roundabout and diplomat -- take up more room in the car so it won't work for everyone but if you have the room, buy a britax.
from www.amazon.com
overall this particular model matched my criteria best - it has a solid design, high quality components, kids supposedly find it very comfortable, and it fits well in our compact car.
from www.amazon.com
it is very compact which gives us more room in our santa fe for the front seat passenger than the graco did...just an awesome car seat.

Britax Boulevard Convertible

Best Price: $285.00

from Kari, www.elitecarseats.com
these seats are a breeze to install, but do require a little bit more room and are probably not a wise choice for someone with a small compact car (i drive a jeep commander).
from www.amazon.com
it is a larger seat, but it suprisingly fits great in my small compact sedan.
from www.amazon.com
it does not fit in a compact car very well.
from www.amazon.com
although the boulevard "looks" huge in the store, it's ok once installed rear-facing because the base is very compact.
from www.amazon.com
the boulevard and the marathon are the most compact models out there (26" deep horizontally when reclined for rear-facing installation) - smaller than other models by approximately 2.5".

Britax Regent

Best Price: $170.00

from www.amazon.com
i have a feeling most people are used to seeing the compact size of infant and convertible seats, once you adjust to the idea that this is really a 'big' kids seat, it's not that big.
from www.amazon.com
there isn't a lot of extra room, but i wouldn't expect to have any while puting two kids in a compact car.
from www.amazon.com
the regent is a very large seat and probably not the best for a compact vehicle.
from www.amazon.com
therefore, i don't think size will be a problem unless you own a compact car.

Combi Kobuk 8970 Black Opal

Best Price: $84.00

the booster is also lighter than our graco or britax, but the most amazing thing is that it folds up into a compact package, which is much easier to carry and transport when not in use!
from www.amazon.com
we wanted a compact and safe booster and found this to be a great combination.
from www.amazon.com
2- it's light, compact ...but to me, it looks more durable than the other booster seats and the seat itself is pretty large (larger than the other booster seat, so very comfortable as the child grows)

this seat is compact, the straps are smooth.
from www.amazon.com
the only reason we didn't buy one for each of our children was due to size limitations in our compact cars.
