She's coming from a Diplomat, which she was very uncomfortable in over the last few weeks.
I can't believe how HUGE and SMALL this seat is (confusing, right?)!!! The interior room of this seat will give her plenty of room and we may not even need to buy another seat for a very, very long time. This seat does not interfere with the front seats at all, whereas the Britax was all up into both front seats. It's unreal, considering this seat is SO much taller than the Blvd and the Diplomat.
I had so many reservations about this seat due to the lack of a RF tether that I passed it up last year and bought two Roundabouts as my spares. Boy, was I wrong about this seat.
The fabric is plush and easily as high quality as the Britax. This seat is 100x easier to install and Britax needs to take a hint with the belt lock-offs.
I was dead set on buying a Britax Multi Tech this time around but I know for certain that I made the right decision by buying the True Fit. We weren't in a position to justify that much money on importing a seat, when we needed two seats anyhow.
I am going now to pre-order the True Fit with the ARB for my car and we'll be putting this one in DH's car.
Did I mention when DD saw the seat she said, "Ooooooooh!!!" and didn't scream her head off when I put her in!
The only thing that needs to be revised about this seat is the harness adjuster location. It is buried beneath the seat and a PITA to access. Also, a bubble level will be much appreciated (but comes with the Premiere so they already got that one covered.)
I am now a believer in the True Fit. This seat gives Britax a major run for their money. I've had 4 Britax seats and in no way am I second guessing going to a non-RF tethered seat. I swore up and down I wouldn't do a non-tethered RF seat but went ahead and bought this on clearance from Target just to try it out.
Needless to say, I'm buying a second one ;)
