New Evenflo booster

Lara · Dec 23, 2006

Looks like it might have potential.

I think it needs deeper side wings, but its hard to tell in the pictures. It is full of EPS and EPP foam apparently.... that can't be bad.

Hmmm, sounds like I have a good reason to go to BRU now! LOL

That looks interesting!

I may need to go check that out...

you know I saw that at a birlington and thought it was a graco! I thought it was odd looking and the print was different, and I saw it was labeled evenflo, and I was like "hey that is mislabeled" LMAO! I only looked at it a second, should have looked closer.

ETA it is on their site http://evenflo.com/Homepage/ProductList/tabid/203/display/features/navid/1/Default.aspx
looks like it is a 'better' version of the big kid. It says it adjusts the depth of the lap portion. That is something we are always looking for right?

While it DOES look nicer than their older version, those lower belt guides look like kind-of a pain. I think my kids would have a hard time buckling themselves if they had to get the belt lined up in those (???)
I'm not sure, though....I hope I can see one in person!

Um...and the recommended age...Birth and UP!!!
Oh Boy!

Jeanum · Dec 24, 2006

Interesting... but why does the recommended age say birth and up? Ay yi yi that needs to be corrected.

ETA: synchronized posting, heehee

BRU has the same age recommendation for the Parkway.

I actually kind of like it. The sidewings aren't nearly as side impact protective as I'd like, as least as far as depth/angle go, but I like that is has foam.

I wonder how the lapbelt guides work? I wonder how easy it is to get buckled? Lap depth adjustment, totally AWESOME if it really adjusts deeper than other boosters. It looks fairly wide at the base. No torso wings to speak of. The shoulderbelt guides look like they'd hold the belt in place a little more rigidly/tightly than, say, a Parkway or Turbo.

On the Evenflo link, the Deluxe version looks really nice. Armrests flip up for easy access & bottom supposedly pulls outward. I like how the entire back moves upwards instead of just the headrest & neck area. One of those minor things I've never liked about booster seats.
