I see the Vivos on sale at Albee baby, can't figure out the difference between the two, they are the same price??Is one better than the other, fabric difference. This would be a spare seat in my parents car for my 5.3 year old DD, she is about 44in. 44lbs. She rides in a GN in my car....

Just the covers. The Lite I think has a fuzzy fabric, the Vivo has a mesh? Not sure. It's one or the other. LOL

Wendy has it backwards. The Vivo has a soft microfiber. It's kind of fuzzy, but it has a short pile. The Vivo lite is a breathable mesh.

Just to add to this, does anyone have experience with either? How are they for cleaning, is one better than the other or is it just preference?
Thanks!

I have a Vivo, but I haven't cleaned it. I don't know for sure if they wash differently, but I'm guessing the difference wouldn't be really significant. I think the biggest different between the two if preference.

either one should be fine... the cover on the vivo is more similar to that of the Parkway and other soft britax seats.

the mesh shouldn't be bad, but I would also point out that the regular vivo is technically a better price.
