Combination Car Seat for Toddler
Our son is just over 2 1/2. He is 37 inches tall and weighs 29lbs. He has been (happily!) in his Britax Roundabout since he was 5mos. old. He is just barely short enough to still be in it, so we know we will be needing a new seat quickly! I know that Britax is coming out with the Wizard/Marathon, that are about 3. 5inches taller from where his bottom sits to the top in the roundabout, but they can't be used with a regular seatbelt for when he's older, and we'd like to avoid buying 2 more seats and just get a combo. one. I wish Britax would make one of those(besides the mammoth Super Elite, what other Britax one could we use???) We are looking at the Fisher Price Grow With Me(only seen online, never in a store, would have to buy it online, which I am hesitent to buy a non-Britax brand without seeing it first), I have heard that the Cosco ones aren't great, we looked at the Summit one by Cosco and weren't too thrilled. So we are just at a standstill and totally confused!! What car/booster seat is as comfy as a Roundabout, easy to use, and safe as well?? And can be used when he is older and not in the harness? Thank you. If we never wanted to put more people in the backseat of our car, maybe we would consider the Super Elite again? But that can't be used with the shouler/lap belt for when he's older if I'm correct. It's such a wide seat, and Tyler is tall, but thin.
