View Full Version : My 19 month old still fits in a keyfit

and I don't have any pics:( Sorry! Her stats are below, she is pretty petite.

I was pretty excited to see that ShopKo carries the Chicco travel system - a pretty color, too - green and gray. The fabric seemed like it would be a little less sweaty than the iceberg one we had, although we never had sweating problems. Her head was about an inch from the top when the seat was sitting on the floor, so I am guessing when the seat is installed, she'd have a little more since it will be a little more upright and she'd probably slump or slide down just a touch.

I don't have a cell phone and I don't haul my camera around so I don't have any pics. I sold my KF when she was 12.5 months old figuring she'd outgrow it long before the Sept sale so I bought a MA at the Feb sale.

Just thought I'd share:thumbsup:

WOOT! That is SO awsome! So it shows it is a long lasting seat after all!

I've never used a keyfit, I'll have to check them out next time I'm at BRU. But I put DD in a SS1 last week, and I think she just barely fit. She was fighting me, but it looked like she had 1 inch of room above her head. She's 23 months, 23 pounds, and about 33-34 inches.

Wow, I'm shocked! I stuck DS2 in a KF22 a couple of months ago in BRU and he was clearly too tall! :p But, I think I'm still going to go for it with DC3, because I likely wouldn't use it past a year anyway. DS2 was in a SR till 9 mths, though he would have fit longer. I just get tired of the buckets.

melniemi- Wasn't it the Adventure color that they had at Shopko? I saw no where on the seat that it was rated to 30lbs. On the website they say they only offer it in the Keyfit 30. Just curious if you had noticed.
FWIW my DD would have lasted till 18 months in the Keyfit30, but it was not out when she was born so She only lasted till 9 or 10 months in the Keyfit22 when she outgrew it by weight (with many inches yet above her head!)

I noticed my Shopko had a Keyfit and I could not believe it.

My DD still fits in her SR (22#) so I'm sure she'd fit the KF. Still has 1 pound and a few inches of shell. She'll be 18 months next week.

Yes, it was that cover. My older dd was 21#s at 9 months so she wouldn't have lasted nearly as long. This baby is just a peanut! I didn't notice the weight limit, but I'm pretty sure that pattern is only available in the 30# version.

I was also excited to see it at ShopKo. They also had a Flex-Loc. Our only other stores here are Walmart and Kmart.
