Has anyone here ordered a True Fit from Amazon lately? Wondering what DOMs they have. Does anyone know when the True Fit was last made for Canada? I'm trying to help someone on a FB group.

Thanks!!

No, but when I do a search there are two that come up with two different dates - but I think that is when Amazon first began carrying it. If I was going to gamble I'd go with the Sticks & Stones cover because it has a May 2013 date. http://www.amazon.ca/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=true fit

ETA: I'm live chatting with Amazon right now to find out. If they're old maybe I can convince them to reduce the price!

ETA again: Amazon doesn't know and suggested I contact First Years, so I have. Will report back when I hear something.

The Sticks & Stones is much nicer then the Elegance. The inner fabric is higher quality. It's like Britax's Onyx they used to have on the Marathon. The striped fabric in the centre of Elegance is just like poplin cotton (and the infant insert too). Sticks & Stones will be easier to keep clean/wipe off.

Not surprisingly, First Years has no clue what the dates are on the stock that Amazon has :rolleyes:

They're also unable to tell me when they last produced seats for Canada. Really? Nobody knows when the last ones came off the line?

Amazon has opened a team inquiry and is looking into it. I suggested a pro-rated price reduction if the seats are old.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the point of a FB page is when every post says to phone customer service. Graco does the same thing. Surely they could go to the trouble of saying "X cover was manufactured Sept 2011 - Mar 2013, when the Canadian version was discontinued." or something to that effect. I dunno. That's what I would do if I was running the page. But maybe if you're too helpful, people might start posting too much? LOL For all the complaints we might have about Diono, I will give them credit for sticking their necks out and giving a lot of specific answers on their FB page.

ETA: Did you notice that 3rd party listing for a $600 True Fit? I pulled up the seller and they appear to be Canadian, at least. Too funny.
