Anyone interested in backless booster(s)? - Car Seat.Org - Carseat, Vehicle & Child Passenger Safety Forums

papooses · 02-18-2007, 09:41 PM

Just checking to see if anyone might be interested -- don't have the DOMs at the moment....

Britax Starriser Comfy: Cowmooflauge
Dorel Juvenile Prospect/Cubb: brown plaid

Both are backless only, used sparingly in my parents' vehicles.

I may just donate them to the carseat distribution program I volunteer at, but if I can get just a few $ from them I could really use it

I wish the Cubb were Gray... I just can't 'do' tan.. but can you tell me the depth on that seat? I saw it at walmart and thought it was totally deep (like, totally, dude), but Heather saw it and thought it wasn't? Enquiring minds want to know...

canadianmom2three · 02-19-2007, 02:45 PM

I have been looking for a prospect backless for my DS aged 10 to use on our upcoming trip - would the shipping be prohibitive from where you are to Canada??? If not am definately interested...

scatterbunny · 02-19-2007, 02:56 PM

I want/need the SRC!!!!

papooses · 02-27-2007, 08:55 AM

Sorry it took me a while to respond! Wanted to make sure the volunteer program got their shipment of highbacks in first....

I can ship anywhere in North America (not just the "lower 48") -- I'm most interested in just getting back the cost of shipping

I'll PM you each the DOM info this afternoon when I get home.

Dangit -- must've totally blanked on adding that to the review ... will check it this afternoon & let ya know!

papooses · 02-28-2007, 10:23 AM

Sorry -- no internet connection last night -- am back on campus without my PostIt of info ... hopefully the wireless signal is connected tomorrow (I have classes all day till after 9:00 PM)

kate4478 · 03-01-2007, 02:15 PM

Oh, oh! If Jenny doesn't take the SRC I'll take it! I've been looking for an one. It's about the only booster narrow enough to fit my car, I have bucket seats

Thanks, Kate

papooses · 03-01-2007, 08:05 PM

I'm having wireless internet problems at home & am simply not organized enough to remember to bring a PostIt to campus so I can share the details

scatterbunny · 03-01-2007, 09:33 PM

I really, REALLY want/need the SRC.

canadianmom2three · 03-01-2007, 09:54 PM

I on the other hand, no longer need the Prospect - we are leaving in less than a week for the trip I wanted it for oldest DS...I think I will just grab one when we hop the border as I have still not found it in Canada, but did see it at the US walmart last time I was there.

strollerfreak · 03-02-2007, 01:40 PM

Add me as 3rd in line for the SRC...that would work really nice in the Escape for my oldest...the BK is just HUGE width wise and it's the only other one we've got right now.

papooses · 03-07-2007, 11:00 AM

Sorry, what is BK

Which seats do you want in the Escape? I've fit a couple 3 across combinations in my Escapes (2004 leather + 2005 hybrid) ... the SRC was not as easy as one might think -- Parkway was sooooo much better for a few reasons!

Evenflo BigKid...

My DS can't do the Parkway...he has this thing with the headwings on it. It'd only be occasional use, and then after he completely and utterly grows out of the Futura he's currently using in there.

papooses · 03-07-2007, 01:51 PM

Haven't tried the BigKid -- but which other seats do you need squeezed in with a booster? 2 Britax convertibles? If so, then the SRC armrest can just barely scrunch under a side of one of the other seats, but your knuckles will be bloody & kiddo must be able to fit in it on the narrowest setting (my SD couldn't fit with room enough for the lap belt portion to be properly positioned)

strollerfreak · 03-07-2007, 04:49 PM

Another Futura and a Roundabout...

papooses · 03-17-2007, 01:02 PM

Might work -- never tried that combination.... Always interesting

I'm awaiting a call back from my mom: she hid the boosters on me & I can't find them (they're out of town now, too)

strollerfreak · 03-17-2007, 04:32 PM

That's fine...whenever.

papooses · 04-25-2007, 01:56 PM

The SRC is taken, but I finally found the Cubb!

Totally stupid story about neither of my parents remembering where they put the boosters & my co-worker butting in moving them around, too *SIGH*

Anyway, the Cubb DOM = 8/14/06

(asking only for COD shipping cost)

Sheesh, I'm sorry I forgot this once I found the seat again

It was tucked under my dad's desk behind a box

Totally not on the garage landing or in the car like my dad said

Anyway, I got about 16" total depth -- Leila definitely has more leg support in this booster than any other.... Which has short of changed my mind: I think I'm going to keep it now because although she's still too skinny for it yet (she slides around in it on turns) it'll be good to have eventually
