any rumours on new britax hbb?

[happiness-and-balance]

Yeah I'm sorry but who the hell thought up those covers.. I'd like a zebra, a cow, a red, and some
sort of mature boy design, pretty please.

Looks like same latch, same cup holders, but 90's arms? But the big question is, which shoulder belt guides? FR85, FR90, old SGL or something entirely new? I wish I knew so I could plan.

Upfront headrest adjustment, new SG clip, and i'm betting the belt guides are the same height.

Those covers are yucky. Why don't they have onyx? Don't they do everything in onyx? How long do the current parkways last before they expire? I might have to buy one or two to save for my boys before they disappear.

I despise the parkway but I love this one. It kinda looks like the Pkwy and Monterey had a baby hehe and I don't mind the covers although I do wish the SGL covers were as cute as the SG covers.

Yes, I see now that the head rest lever is in front now like the FR90, although the current SGL can already be adjusted while installed (just did it twice today), and the SG slip is a bit more stylish looking, isn't it? I wonder if the SG clip fits differently or if it's just a superficial change.

So you think the belt guides are the same as current the Parkway? They could be. I can't quite tell in the picture, but I'm really hoping (pretty please ) to see this addressed in the blog this weekend. :whistling:

The covers look too "smooth" to me. I really like plush. It just doesn't blow me away by looks but we shall see!

Imo the arm rests don't look that different.

Yeah, I agree. They still look small, low and virtually useless :duck:

 

[zactayaus]

I was soooo hoping they were going to bring back the original style Parkway without the armrests. That booster was the bomb!

 

[Phineasmama]

I kinda like the cub pink!
Doubt the belt guides would work in my Crapavan though.

It looks similar to the peg booster.

FYI - it has the exact same height measurements as the current PW SG/SGL models so it's not going to be any taller but it's already one of the tallest highback boosters on the market so that's not a disappointment in my book.

ETA - I will measure anyway when I have the opportunity to do that next week.

They need someone new in their cover designing department! Blah! So far unimpressed.

I wish I had known this was coming! I just bought a Monterey to replace my expired old style Parkway. I wonder if this would work better with my annoying 3rd row outboard seatbelts.

My thoughts, exactly. Covers on britax seats 5 or so years ago were the best, now they are pretty blah. I don't like the slick covers. They seem sweaty to me and my kids only want soft.

Ah yes. Our first Britax was ashley floral. Soooo pretty.

The current Parkway boosters have a lifespan of 6 years from DOM.

I really hope they add Onyx to the cover choices, and replace that business suit looking one with a nice bright red

I wonder if there will be a SICT booster. I have to say I was really hoping for SICT on any new Britax booster. Anyone know? Sarah if you're reading? Or Darren if you're allowed to say anything?

Hopefully we'll know before August. SICT with better covers would likely find a home in my van.
