So, how does the Grow with you compare to the Frontier? 

The new Britax Grow with you Clicktight is basically the same as the Britax Frontier. The main difference between the two seats other than the Frontier had a black plastic shell, while the new Grow with you Clicktight has a grey shell is the harnesses. 

The Grow With You Clicktigh has a lower weight limit (65 pounds or 29.54Kgs) while the Frontier had a 90 Pounds or 40.9Kgs harness limit. Which coming to the think of it is not much of a big deal, as average 5 year old boy or girl (75th percentile) is around the 20Kgs*. The Grow With You Clicktight will allow for an average 6-7 year old (or a large 5 year old) to stay harnessed. 

Once a child exceeds the 29Kg limit for a harness, the seat transforms to a Seat belt booster for a school age child who will be mature enough to use the car seat belt in that booster mode with a seat belt.

The Grow with you Clicktight is a replacement product for the Britax Frontier. 

The Britax Grow with you Clicktight has a 1 year manufacturer warranty and a 9 year life span from the date of purchase.
