Should I keep my old Century Smartmove?

Hi,
My baby is ready for a convertible, and I'm wondering if I should use our Smartmove (3yrs old) or buy a new one. Is the Smartmove still considered one of the safer carseats?
Any feedback much appreciated.
Thanks,
Nan

The Smartmove should be fine-

As long as it fits well with your child and vehicle, the Smartmove is a safe choice. It does tend to be one of the more difficult carseats to fit into vehicles rear-facing. Since you mentioned safety, rear-facing is the safest option you have for some time. As long as the Smartmove fits rear-facing, there should be no need to replace it with a new one.

I hope that helps, unless you were looking forward to shopping for a new one of course!

Remember that the SmartMove cannot touch the vehicle seat in front of it when it's rear-facing. Sometimes parents don't realize that about this seat and if you have a smaller vehicle, it can be a problem.
